Experienced Ohio Personal Injury Attorney Helps Clients Pursue Monetary Relief

Dedicated Shaker Heights attorney also handles workers’ compensation and probate matters

Whether you’ve been injured in a car accident, hurt on the job or tasked with distributing a deceased loved one’s assets, having a trusted lawyer on your team can help you achieve your goals. I formed Apelt Law Firm, LLC in 1990 to help people like you navigate their legal challenges and get back on their feet. I am experienced with personal injury, workers’ compensation and probate law matters, and I make it my mission to help people in Shaker Heights and the surrounding communities get their lives back on track after an injury or the loss of a loved one. With almost 30 years of experience, you can rest assured you’re in good hands.

Accomplished legal team puts clients first

There are a lot of attorneys out there, but finding the right one for your needs can make all the difference. Ohio residents trust me with their legal matters because I’m:

• Empathetic — I understand the issues my clients face and how difficult their situations can be, so I provide skilled representation aimed at reducing their stress and achieving a favorable outcome.
• Dedicated — I won’t treat you like just another number. Each person’s situation is unique and complex, which is why I take the time to get your full story, including any injuries, time off work or pain and suffering related to your case.
• Effective — While going to court is sometimes necessary to protect your interests, settling out of court can bring a fast and agreeable solution. When appropriate, I negotiate with insurance companies in order to reach a settlement that benefits my clients.

I will take the time to listen closely to your concerns and get all the facts of your case so that I can represent you as effectively as possible.

Motivated attorney guides clients through difficult situations

I provide support to Ohio residents in the following practice areas:

• Personal injury — Whether you were injured in a motor vehicle accident, bitten by your neighbor’s dog or involved in another type of personal injury matter involving nursing home abuse or defective drugs or medical products, I will work with you to get the compensation you deserve.
• Workers’ compensation — If you’ve been injured on the job, I can help you collect workers’ compensation benefits in order to recover costs related to medical treatment or lost wages.
• Probate matters — Whether someone in your family has passed away or you’re planning for the future by writing a will, I have significant experience assisting with sensitive probate and estate planning matters.

I can advocate for compensation for your injuries, counsel you through drafting a will and administering a deceased loved one’s assets to the proper beneficiaries.
