Schmidt, Kirifides, Rassias & Rio is a leading Pennsylvania law firm based in Media, PA devoted to representing injured workers in Pennsylvania workers’ compensation claims. For more than 30 years, the firm has built its reputation on protecting injured workers across Delaware County and the greater Philadelphia region in every type of workers’ compensation matter, including new workplace injuries, denied or delayed benefits, wage loss disputes, medical coverage issues, benefit terminations, and substantial lump sum settlements.
Every workers’ compensation partner at the firm is a Certified Workers’ Compensation Specialist under Pennsylvania law, a distinction earned by only a small percentage of attorneys statewide. This certification reflects concentrated experience, rigorous examination, and a sustained focus on workers’ compensation law at every level of the Pennsylvania system. Each partner has been recognized on the Super Lawyers list for professional achievement and peer respect. In 2026, Mark R. Schmidt was named to both the Pennsylvania Top 100 and Philadelphia Top 100 Super Lawyers lists, distinctions awarded to only a select group of attorneys statewide and in the region. Collectively, the firm’s attorneys have successfully handled thousands of Pennsylvania workers’ compensation matters and have secured more than 100 million dollars in compensation for injured clients.
The firm represents clients from the first report of injury through hearings, appeals, and final resolution. Its attorneys regularly litigate before Workers’ Compensation Judges, the Workers’ Compensation Appeal Board, the Commonwealth Court of Pennsylvania, and the Pennsylvania Supreme Court, including numerous precedent setting cases that have shaped how Pennsylvania workers’ compensation law is applied. That appellate strength exists to protect workers at every stage of a claim, not only in complex matters.
Because of its depth of specialization, the firm is frequently consulted by other attorneys on significant workers’ compensation issues. More importantly, clients choose Schmidt, Kirifides, Rassias & Rio because of its focused practice, certified expertise, and proven record of securing medical treatment, wage loss benefits, and long-term financial stability when it matters most.
