About
I am the founder of The Schafer Law Office. I have been licensed in the state of Kentucky since 1986, graduating from the University of Louisville Brandeis School of Law. I have over 25 years of practical yet innovative experience dealing with personal injury cases. Unlike many attorneys who use paralegals to manage cases, write briefs, motions and meet with clients, I make it my personal goal to be personally involved in all of those things. I give a great deal of personal attention to each and every case. In my free time, I enjoy skiing, making as many trips to Big Sky and Snow Bird as I can in a year, as well as rooting for the University of Louisville Cardinals at sporting events.

I hired Mike and his team to represent me because of a pretty scary car accident that wasn’t my fault. I had major back injuries and the insurance companies were being down right nasty. Mike fought BACK! Not once but every time Him and his staff of hardworking honest people made me feel a lot better while they worked 100% to give me the compensation I deserved .everything was sorted out after just a few meetings. Forget those big “heavy hit” lawyers. False promises made because you are only a number in the schedule book. I’d hire Mike again in a heartbeat. -James
Michael Schafer represented me in a pedestrian accident where a SUV ran into me while walking. Michael was very professional and was very concerned about my recovery. He walked me through the legal process and set expectations. He keep me informed throughout the duration of the case.
As a personal injury lawyer, Michael Schafer is the way to go. Oleta and the rest of the staff are personable, thoughtful and get things DONE. Mike is an easy to talk to person who gets results. As unpleasant as a personal injury case is to have to deal with, they made it bearable, went OUT OF THEIR WAY to help, and honestly showed compassion. I never felt like a number or forgotten under a pile of paperwork. Hopefully, we won't have to meet again under these circumstances, but I know I'm covered if we do. Thanks to the ENTIRE TEAM at The Schafer Law Office!

I was involved in a minor accident in 2012, and contacted Michael Schafer, who had represented my in a DUI ten years prior. He was able to help me get the medical attention I needed as I didn't have health insurance at the time. I really appreciated the way he explained the law and how it related to my case. I will refer him to everyone I know.
I can't put in words how much I love schafer law firm and very professional. i cant say one negative thing about michael and his staffs.They set me up with the best doctors.!!
My experience with Michael was amazing in 8/2012 and I will continue seeing him if I'm in another accident. He's the best lawyer in louisville. Please don't go to another lawyer. Michael gotten me a beautiful settlement . Thanks
My first experience with mr. Schafer was 10/2008 n I was surprised how professional mr. Schafer n his staffs was during all my visits. I was scared on my first visit with mr.schafer because I heard a lot of negative things about accident lawyers in louisville,ky.. But after talking to him I felt comfortable n trust in mr.schafer . After my settlement I was extremely happy n satisfy with mr.schafer n his staffs. Next, my auntie had a accident n she asked me about a lawyer n I gave her mr.schafer phone and after her settlement, she thanks me for giving her mr.schafer number. Then, my mother had an accident n she called me to get mr.schafer number because she said she didn't truth these other lawyers after her bad experience. Last, my wife,son n I was involve n a accident with a guy that rear end us n the first person I called was mr.schafer!!! Thanks to mr.schafer n his stuffs, god bless
Very helpful. Kept us informed of what was going on. We were well pleased with the settlement and with his fee. There were no surprises. He knows the law and how the insurance companies operate.
Mike helped my family during our accident case in 2006,2009.He was very helpful with any questions I had. He has made my family and I feel that we were important, and he had our best interest in mind.Our own auto insurance company wasn't being fair with us and mike made sure to help us through the trying time,even though it took a three year period to work out.I feel other attorneys would have just given up and looked the other way,but mike didn't.I do and will continue to recommend mike.
