THE FACES OF
WORKERS’ COMPENSATION LAW
Monte R. Shoemaker Esq. Kellye A. Shoemaker Esq.
Shoemaker Injury Law
For 23 years this father-daughter team has served as one of Florida’s most respected workers’ compensation claimant firms. For 14 years before that Monte Shoemaker singlehandedly fought for the rights of injured workers, building a solid reputation one legendary case at a time. Shoemaker Injury Law may be a small firm, especially compared to mega firms in the same industry, but their solid reputation casts a huge shadow. Monte and Kellye continue standing up for injured workers against insurance giants.
One of the firm’s greatest strengths is its ability to navigate decades of legislative changes and court decisions affecting workers’ compensation law. Another is its commitment to letting results speak for themselves. Shoemaker Injury Law has done virtually no advertising over the years, instead building its reputation through successful representation and strong client relationships. They believe every client deserves personal attention, respect and compassion, regardless of how an employer, insurance carrier or lawmakers may view them. Clients are treated as individuals, not numbers, and have direct access to their attorneys when questions arise or important information needs to be shared. The firm also helps clients navigate the complex processes involved in their claims.
Shoemaker Injury Law has proven that knowledge, resilience and integrity can outweigh sheer size. From Monte’s first case in 1989 to Kellye’s leadership today, the firm’s commitment has remained constant: protecting the rights of Florida’s injured workers, one client at a time.
