About Schmidt, Kirifides, Rassias & Rio Workers' Compensation Lawyers

Certified Workers’ Compensation Specialists Representing Injured Workers in Delaware County

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.

Free consultations are available at our Delaware County office or by secure video conference. Home and hospital visits can be arranged when necessary. There are no legal fees unless workers’ compensation benefits are secured.

Hired Law Firm

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.

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!!!

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.

Initially I had an interview with a couple of the Lawyers I saw on a billboard driving into center city but didn't like how rushed and unimportant they all made me feel. I was seen by 5 different people most of the time and felt almost forced to sign with them. I asked my friend if she had any recommendations and her brother recommended Schmidt Kirifides & Rassias. They helped him a couple years ago and he spoke very highly of them so I gave them a call. Right from the beginning I could feel the difference. They weren't forceful or pushy and they defiantly knew what they were talking about. They recommended thing the other firms didn't even mention. The comparison between them and the other firms I saw really was night and day. They eventually negotiated a settlement with the insurance company for mid 6 figures. With all the lawyers available I pray you read this review and give this firm a shot. You wont be sorry.

This law firm was recommended by another lawyer as they specialize in workman's compensation. Vasil was my lawyer and walked me through everything as we moved forward. I cannot say how grateful I am to Vasil for how my case was handled.

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.
