A selection of five-star reviews from injured workers and their families.

Hello, my name is Donald J. and i want to tell you about the amazing work that Mark Schmidt has done for not only myself, but my family.

Without Mark I would have taken advantage of and most likely been living on the street with a newborn. In the unfortunate event of my workplace failing to supply me with my paychecks, Mark went above and beyond with just a day of talking.

Just in the hours of me pleading my case to him, he sprang into action and filed the proper paperwork making sure I was set up. This is one of the most hardworking and selfless people I have ever been honored to come into contact with. Without Mark and his team, I wouldn't be where i am today.

Thank you for all you did and all the people you are going to help and support in the future.

If you were injured at your job, SKRR is the only law firm to pick. I will be forever grateful to Mark & Vasil for helping me through this hard time.

I worked throughout the Philadelphia and Delaware County area when I was injured at work last year at one of our construction sites. My friends mom who used them for two prior work injury cases told me to use them and I’m so thankful I did.

I was hurt pretty bad when I fell off a ladder at work. Initially my claim was picked up but was soon denied after a couple weeks which is when I called them.

Whenever I had a question they would text me right back and always took my call. I’m not big on leaving reviews but this was really a dark time in my life and I can’t thank them enough for how professional, knowledgeable, and helpful they were at every turn.

If you need a workers compensation lawyer I highly suggest you give them a call. They always gave me comfort and made me feel like I actually mattered. Thank you guys for everything.

I had the pleasure of being represented by Kirifides Sr. in a workers’ compensation case. I found them through the Delaware County Bar Association referral service, and they did not disappoint!!

They took the time to clearly explain each step of the process and made sure I had access to the resources I needed to recover and return to a functional life.

Being on the spectrum I honestly felt very overwhelmed with all the legal documentation and formal procedures but working with Schmidt, Kirifides, Rassias & Rio, I truly felt informed and supported through the process.

No one wants to navigate legal disputes, and I definitely don’t want to do it again but if I ever had to I would choose Kirifides every time.

Lando Google Review

Vasil L. Kirifides provided me with incredible service. From day One (1) he told me he has Three (3) rules, tell the truth, tell the truth, and Always tell the truth.

By following his rules and advice from years of legal service, I was able to get a reasonable settlement when another law firm in Philadelphia failed to even call me back after one (1) year of signing with their firm.

I am pleased and will be forever grateful of your service.

John Google Review

I have been a client of Mark’s for 18 years. During this time, he has been patient, thorough with follow up, and has always kept my best interest as a priority. He has yet to make any compensation from me, but he still holds my case as a priority and keeps in contact with me regularly.

I have a sense of safety and security in working with Mark that I think is very unique when dealing with legal teams and compensation cases.

Danielle Google Review

If you need a workmans comp attorney you'd be foolish to go anywhere else!

Was severely injured at work. Insurance company denied me coverage for my medical bills.

Mark Schmidt is a top of the line workmans comp attorney.

He went above and beyond for my case. Could not ask for a better attorney and the whole office was awesome and professional.

Josiah Google Review

The only law firm to choose for a work injury. Anna & Vasil have been invaluable for my workers compensation claim.

Their firm is super knowledgeable and at every turn and every question I actually felt like they cared about me and not just my case. 5 out of 5 stars!!

Wester Google Review

Working with Mark and the entire team was the best decision I made after my injury. They showed genuine empathy and compassion from my very first consultation.

After my injury, I was overwhelmed, but they made the process stress-free. They took care of all the stressful legal and insurance details so I could focus entirely on my medical recovery.

Mark and his team were always available to answer my questions and kept me updated every step of the way. They truly treat you like family rather than just another number. I am deeply grateful for them.

Maria Google Review

I recently worked with Mark Schmidt on my Pennsylvania workers’ comp case and I couldn’t be more grateful for everything he did.

From day one, he was honest, patient, and incredibly thorough in explaining what was going on and what to expect. Mark always returned my calls and emails, kept me updated without me having to chase him, and made a really stressful situation feel manageable.

I always felt like he truly cared about me and my outcome, not just “another case.” In the end, my case was resolved better than I ever expected, and I know that’s because of Mark’s experience and hard work.

If you’re dealing with a workers’ comp issue in PA, I highly recommend Mark Schmidt — you’ll be in very good hands.

I highly recommend Mark Schmidt and his team. Working with Mark was a great experience. He is highly skilled, honest and a top-notch negotiator.

Many thanks to Mark for helping me through one of the toughest times of my life. In addition to the expertise in workmen’s compensation law he provided, he was informative and responsive throughout the entire process. He was always available to patiently answer every question I had, and the care I received from Mark and his staff was truly unmatched.

I’m so grateful to Mark, not only for coming to my home when my injuries prevented me from leaving, but for the peace of mind that he provided throughout my case and for the results he produced. If you need representation, Schmidt, Kirifides, Rassias & Rio Workers' Compensation Lawyers is the absolute best firm you want to handle your case.

AnthonyGoogle Review

I had the pleasure of working with Mark Schmidt of Schmidt, Kirifides, Rassias & Rio, and I can confidently say he is an exceptional attorney. From the very beginning, Mark demonstrated professionalism, responsiveness, and a genuine dedication to my case. He took the time to answer every question I had thoroughly, ensuring I understood all my options every step of the way.

Unlike many attorneys, Mark is incredibly responsive—whether by phone or email—his communication is always timely and clear. His commitment to client care is unmatched; I never felt overlooked or uninformed.

Mark’s expertise and determination led to a successful outcome in my case, securing a favorable financial result for me. He was also quick to provide any necessary paperwork or documentation, which helped keep the process efficient and stress-free.

If you’re pursuing a workers’ compensation case, I highly recommend Mark Schmidt. He is diligent, experienced, and fiercely determined—everything you’d want in an attorney. I wouldn’t hesitate to refer him to anyone in need of representation. He truly went above and beyond from start to finish.

TatianaGoogle Review

Best group of lawyers in Philadelphia! I seriously can't recommend this law firm enough! I was hurt at work around a year and a half ago and didn’t know what to do. My brother recommended going to a smaller family friendly firm because he heard some horror stories about the larger law firms and how they treat their clients and I'm so happy I listened to him. The lawyers at Schmidt Kirifides & Rassias constantly kept me updated and guided me through everything. If you were hurt at work and are looking for a group of great workers compensation lawyers I can’t recommend them enough. You wont be sorry.

VictoriaGoogle Review

I recently had the pleasure of working with vasil kirifides involving wages and medical bills, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience. From the very beginning, vasil handled my case with the utmost care and professionalism. He ensured that I was always informed about the progress of my case, explaining each step in a clear and understandable manner. Throughout the process, he demonstrated exceptional dedication and attention to detail. His thorough approach and unwavering commitment to my case gave me great confidence. He consistently went above and beyond to make sure my concerns were addressed and that I felt supported every step of the way. I am satisfied with the outcome of my case. I would 100% recommend to anyone looking for workers compensation benefits!

JesusGoogle Review

My family and I will always be grateful to Attorney Ana. She worked incredibly hard to ensure justice was served in my husband Modesto Rodríguez's workers' compensation case. She is a true professional, and she won the case when we had lost all hope, as other lawyers refused to take it on because it was too complicated. I highly recommend her because I know she will fight for you and ensure that the law is upheld in accordance with workers' rights. She deserves a thousand stars! Thank you, thank you, thank you, Attorney Ana!

AlmaGoogle Review

Mark Schmidt is a great lawyer and a great person and will not stop fighting on your behalf and will keep you updated and informed the whole way. He will never lie to you and will be honest even if it's not something you want to hear. You cannot ask better for a lawyer and law group. He is a perfesional and will give great advice. Choose him and you will not be disappointed. While other law firms spend time and money on commercials and bill boards Mark spends that time and money on winning for you.

MichaelGoogle Review

Mark Schmidt was great to work with during my workers’ comp case. He was reliable, easy to talk to, and always took the time to explain things I didn’t understand.

This is the best injury care law firm. I was recommended by my union rep to them in 2012. I have referred people to them. In 2025 I was injured again. I received the greatest outcome. If u are looking for workman’s comp lawyer they are the only one to choose. Especially if your in Delaware county.

They were always there whenever I called and guided me through the entire workers comp process from start to finish. The entire staff is incredibly supportive, knowledgeable, and helpful.

Mark Schmidt and his team are phenomenal! From start to finish, they are professional, respectful, and hardworking. They always brought their "A game", and stood by my side every step of the way. Any time that I was worried or anxious, I would be reassured. Anytime I had a question, it was answered. I can't praise them enough!

Mark is an expert in his field. He is extremely knowledgeable and always responsive. Emails are answered quickly by either Mark himself or his assistant, so that you are never left to worry. You won't find a more compassionate, knowledgeable, hard working workman's comp attorney.

I honestly can say that Anna Rio of the firm along with all those I reached out to . Were the most efficient and hard working individuals. Anna made sure I received all the medical services and med needed to help make a transition of my way of life after my injury. I highly recommend the firm to help and assist in any work comp issues.

ConnieGoogle Review

I came to Mark some years back, didn’t know anything about getting a lawyer and was referred to him by a friend. That was the best decision I made. Happy I didn’t choose TV advertising. He was real through it all and gave me excellent advice. I too would refer him without any doubt or worries . Thank you Mark. He was the BEST.

CleoGoogle Review

My experience with George Rassias was great through my entire case he always had time to get back to me and answer any questions for me and went out of his way to keep me updated and I would recommend him to anyone looking for a nice and honest person who cares about your case and gets the job done.

ThomasGoogle Review

Mr. Schmidt & his colleagues especially Brandi literally saved my life. My prior employer betrayed me & unjustly terminated me due to an on-job injury days later. The first lawyer from a different firm was incompatible & when I was highly referred to Mr. Schmidt & his firm he accepted my case & always put my best interest first. Everything he said he was going to do he did & he guinely cared for me even when I had made mistakes he never gave up on me or the case. Throughout the whole case he prevailed & the outcome was marvelous. If you are looking for the best lawyer for your workers comp case please contact them.

BrandonGoogle Review

Anna Rio was amazing. She kept well informed and got me great results. I would definitely recommend Schmidt, Kirifides & Rassias.

Lawyers.com & Martindale-Hubbell Client Reviews

Client experiences published through Lawyers.com and Martindale-Hubbell.

Without a doubt the top workers compensation law firm in the Philadelphia and Delaware county area. I've known Mark and Vasil for over 20 years and they have helped me with two workers compensation claims. At every turn they were there and made me feel like family. I did a third party car accident claim with one of the big law firms in Philly and the comparison is night and day. SKRR is really just better in every conceivable way. Calls are always answered and you work with the same attorney the whole time not like 10 different people who dont even know you or your case. I can retire comfortably now because of the settlement they got me. I will always recommend them to family and friends they are the only law firm to choose. Thank you for everything guys you truly changed my life for the better having to deal with my work injuries & surgeries. Give them a call you wont be sorry.

JonathanLawyers.com Review

Dealing with a workers’ compensation claim was stressful and confusing, especially while trying to recover from an injury and figure out what came next. Working with Schmidt, Kirifides, Rassias & Rio made the process much easier than I expected. They were straightforward, responsive, and clearly knew what they were doing. Whenever I had questions, they took the time to explain things and keep me informed, which really helped ease a lot of the anxiety that comes with this kind of situation. I always felt like my case mattered and that it was being handled carefully and professionally. I’m grateful for the support I received and would recommend this firm to anyone who needs help with a workers’ compensation matter. The settlement they got me really changed my life for the better. I will forever be in your guys debt. I wish i could give you guys guys a million stars!!!

AnnabethLawyers.com Review

I can’t say enough good things about Anna. She was incredibly knowledgeable compassionate and responsive throughout my entire workers’ comp case. I always felt like I was in good hands. She took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure I understood my rights. Thanks to Anna I was able to focus on my recovery while she handled the legal side. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone dealing with a work injury in Philly.

BEST WORKERS COMPENSATION FIRM IN PHILLY! Sitting here writing this review it’s hard for me to even put into words what Mark did for me. I was injured post pandemic in 2022 and was absolutely lost and didn’t know what to do. I looked online for days for the right workers compensation lawyer for my injury and thank god I found this firm. I can honestly say no one cares more about his clients than mark, he changed my life. I really do recommend him over any other firm in Philly. Thank you for everything you did for me and my family. You will always hold a special place in my heart.

JohnLawyers.com Review

Honestly I can’t put into words how thankful I am for deciding to pick their firm for my injury. Dealing with my injury was stressful enough, but Marks dedication was what I think made a difference in my case and settlement. He was patient with any questions or concern I had and provided me with peace of mind whenever I reached out to him. Im not one for leaving reviews but he really did make me feel like more than just another client. He treated me with respect and genuine care. I pray that anyone who was injured at work like I was and feels hopeless give them a call. You won’t be sorry.

I hired Mark back in 2014 when my employer was pressuring me to return to work. Mark and his team were nothing less then professional and compassionate.

I have been in the business world for 52 years . I have hired attorneys from small and large firms alike. By far Mark Schmidt is the most talented ! He knows the law inside and out.

He explained things in great detail. In short, he made me feel safe! Best decision I made. I highly recommend him!

I Would definitely without a doubt recommend this firm to represent you in your time of hardship.

Anonymous ClientLawyers.com Review

If you are facing a legal hurdle you need a good lawyer. A lawyer that will fight for you, one that will get you what is fair. So many people get hooked through the yellow pages by looking for the biggest boldest advertisement and will get stuck with inexperienced non-aggressive legal representation. You need a lawyer like Vasil Kirifides who will fight for you and listen to your needs. He does not pressure you into anything and did not let anyone take advantage of me.

Anonymous ClientLawyers.com Review

He had my interests always, he never pulled any punches, he was upfront and honest. I bombarded him with questions and e-mails and he would always answer my questions either by phone or e-mail. And if I did not understand something he took the time to explain.

I had a great experience working with Vasil and his team. He was extremely proactive and knowledgeable. I was explained everything in a manner which I could grasp. He was very personable, which went a long way with me. This was a very positive experience for me. I recommend this firm to everyone due to the the relaxed atmosphere and positive experience.
