Biography

Skibiel Law provides legal representation to people injured on the job and injured in motor vehicle collisions. Mark A. Skibiel began his legal career in 1991. During the first year of his practice, Mark worked for a law firm in Macon, Georgia, where he represented insurance companies in workers’ compensation and motor vehicle collision claims.

Mark A. Skibiel grew up in a family of blue-collar workers. After a year of working for insurance companies, Mark realized his calling was to represent the victims of work accidents and auto collisions, not the insurance companies. Mark has first-hand knowledge of the devastating effects that a work accident or a motor vehicle collision can have on you and your family. Mark's father was injured on the job several times during his career as an ironworker. Two of Mark's brothers had career-ending work accidents involving knee and neck injuries.

Since 1992 Mark A. Skibiel has successfully represented thousands of clients against insurance companies in work and auto collision claims. Mark A. Skibiel has handled all types of injury claims from death and catastrophic to minor injuries.

Mark and his staff understand that the laws that apply to injury claims are complex. From our first meeting, we educate our clients about their rights and responsibilities.
