About Peter Schaeffer

Initially enrolled as a banking and finance major at the New York Institute of Technology, Peter shifted to the Columbia University College of Pharmacy when the Vietnam War erupted. After spending almost four years at Columbia, he left and ultimately graduated as a Doctor of Pharmacy from the University of Southern California (USC). Post-graduation, Peter obtained his Real Estate Broker’s License and discovered a keen interest in law, leading him to pursue a Juris Doctorate from California Southern Law School (originally Citrus Belt) in 1985.

Dr. Peter M. Schaeffer is a comprehensive workers’ compensation attorney. At the Law Offices of Dr. Peter M. Schaeffer, we assist injured workers throughout the claims process and ensure that they receive the maximum benefits as per California law. We understand that protecting your rights after a workplace injury can be challenging without a workers’ compensation attorney, so we make it our priority to help our clients in that regard. Our lawyers are prompt in returning phone calls and responding to emails, usually within 12 business hours. You can trust us to keep you in the loop and provide personalized attention.

Under California law, if you have sustained an injury while on the job, you are entitled to file a workers’ compensation claim. It is mandatory for every employer in California to have workers’ compensation insurance, and those who don’t can be charged with a criminal offense.

Within 12 hours of submitting an inquiry on Dr. Peter's website, he personally reached out to me. He was very generous with his time, answering all of my questions without any pressure to retain his services. I could tell that he was genuinely interested in helping me. While I hope to never need an attorney in the future, I will certainly consider him if I do.

Suffering a work-related injury can be a traumatic experience that can upend your life in the worst possible way. I naively believed that I could continue working with a disability, following the corporate guidelines. However, I would have lost everything had I not contacted Dr. Peter Schaeffer. He may not have been gentle, but he was exactly what I needed - a lawyer who would fight for me and win. Dr. Schaeffer went to bat for me, and he stood up for my rights as a worker's compensation claimant. He made himself available and was relentless in his pursuit of justice on my behalf. I can't stress enough how vital it is to call Dr. Peter Schaeffer before things go sideways. If you're struggling with a work injury or are at risk of losing your professional license due to accidents or other circumstances, meet with him to discuss your options. Trust me - you won't regret it.
