A Career Dedicated to Representing Injured People
Marc Schiller has devoted his professional life to representing people who have been injured because of negligence.
After graduating from law school, Marc began his legal career as an associate at a law firm handling personal injury and wrongful death claims. That early experience provided him with firsthand exposure to the legal and practical challenges faced by accident victims and surviving family members.
After several years in private practice, Marc established his own law firm with a focused mission: representing injured people and families pursuing justice after serious accidents and preventable tragedies.
Since then, his practice has remained centered on personal injury and wrongful death law.
Rather than dividing his attention among unrelated areas of law, Marc has concentrated his career on negligence-based claims involving injuries, insurance coverage, liability disputes, and the consequences of serious accidents.
That long-term focus has allowed him to develop extensive experience with the issues that frequently arise in personal injury cases, including questions involving fault, insurance coverage, damages, medical evidence, long-term injuries, and the financial consequences of an accident.

Over the course of his career, he and his firm have represented thousands of injured clients in personal injury matters.

Practice Areas & Legal Experience
Marc Schiller’s practice focuses exclusively on representing individuals and families in personal injury and negligence-related matters.
His representative areas of practice include:
- Personal injury
- Car accidents
- Truck accidents
- Motorcycle accidents
- Rideshare accidents
- Bicycle accidents
- Pedestrian accidents
- Slip and fall accidents
- Premises liability
- Negligent property maintenance claims
- Catastrophic injuries
- Serious and permanent injuries
- Wrongful death
- Nursing home abuse and neglect
- Insurance-related disputes involving injury claims
Personal injury cases can involve a wide range of factual and legal circumstances. Some claims arise from a single moment of negligence, while others involve dangerous conditions, inadequate safety procedures, negligent drivers, unsafe properties, or conduct that places vulnerable individuals at risk.
Marc’s experience includes evaluating how an accident occurred, identifying potentially responsible parties, examining available insurance coverage, and pursuing compensation for the losses suffered by injured clients and their families.
Experience With Serious Personal Injury Claims
A serious injury can create consequences that extend far beyond the initial accident.
Depending on the circumstances, an injured person may face emergency medical treatment, hospitalization, surgery, rehabilitation, lost income, reduced earning capacity, chronic pain, permanent disabilities, and significant changes to their daily life.
For families, the consequences can also include financial uncertainty and the responsibility of helping an injured loved one recover.
Marc approaches personal injury representation with an understanding that each case involves both legal and personal considerations.
While compensation is an essential component of many injury claims, the legal strategy must also account for the specific circumstances of the injured person, the nature and severity of the injuries, available evidence, insurance coverage, and the potential long-term effects of the accident.
Wrongful Death Representation
Marc’s practice also includes representing families in wrongful death matters.
The loss of a loved one can create overwhelming emotional and financial challenges. When a death results from another party’s negligence, surviving family members may also face complex legal questions regarding liability and compensation.
Wrongful death cases can arise from motor vehicle accidents, dangerous property conditions, negligent conduct, and other preventable incidents.
Marc’s experience in this area reflects his longstanding commitment to representing individuals and families dealing with the most serious consequences of negligence.
These cases often require careful investigation and a detailed understanding of the circumstances surrounding the incident, the responsible parties, and the losses suffered by surviving family members.
Premises Liability and Dangerous Property Claims
Property owners and businesses may have legal responsibilities related to maintaining reasonably safe conditions for visitors and others who enter their property.
When dangerous conditions contribute to an injury, determining responsibility can require a careful review of the property, the circumstances of the incident, maintenance practices, notice of dangerous conditions, and other relevant evidence.
Marc represents injured individuals in premises liability matters involving dangerous or unsafe property conditions.
These cases can include slip and fall accidents and other injuries caused by hazardous conditions that may have been preventable with appropriate maintenance, inspection, or safety measures.
A Focus on Insurance and Personal Injury Issues
Insurance coverage is frequently a significant component of personal injury litigation.
After an accident, injured individuals may encounter complicated questions involving insurance policies, coverage limits, liability disputes, and attempts by insurance companies to minimize or deny claims.
Throughout his career, Marc has also educated others on issues involving personal injury law and insurance coverage.
He has conducted seminars addressing current issues relevant to personal injury and insurance matters, sharing legal knowledge and helping educate audiences about developments and challenges affecting injury claims.
His experience with these issues provides additional depth to his work representing clients whose cases involve complex questions of insurance coverage and compensation.

An Approach Centered on Accountability
At the core of Marc Schiller’s practice is the belief that people who are injured because of negligence deserve experienced legal advocacy.
Personal injury claims are often more complicated than they initially appear. Questions can arise regarding who was responsible for an accident, whether multiple parties contributed to the harm, what insurance coverage is available, and how an injury will affect a person’s future.
Marc approaches these cases by focusing on the specific facts and circumstances involved.
Every client, injury, and accident is different. A meaningful legal strategy must account for the evidence, the nature of the injuries, the parties involved, and the client’s individual needs and goals.
That approach has guided Marc throughout his career and continues to shape his work as Managing and Founding Partner of The Schiller Kessler Group.
