Saladino & Schaaf, PLLC

Saladino & Schaaf, PLLC began in 1984 with a single mission: to help accident victims reclaim their lives. Founded by dedicated attorneys who saw the gaps in personal injury representation, the firm grew into a trusted name across Kentucky and Southern Illinois. Over the decades, we have expanded our expertise to include hospital negligence, wrongful death, and complex truck accident cases. Our founders, Gary E. Schaaf and Kristi & Joseph Saladino, built the firm on principles of integrity, relentless advocacy, and client‑centered service. Each case we take is treated as a personal commitment, not just a legal matter. We have earned a reputation for securing substantial settlements and verdicts, with clients often describing us as their voice when they need it most.

Our team blends seasoned litigation experience with modern investigative techniques to uncover every fact that supports our clients’ claims. We are proud of the relationships we build—clients who become friends, families who trust us with their most vulnerable moments. The firm’s growth has never come at the expense of the values that started it: compassion, transparency, and a fierce pursuit of justice. Today, Saladino & Schaaf remains a pillar of support for those who have been wronged by negligence. We continue to invest in community outreach, legal education, and pro‑bono work to give back to the communities we serve. Our story is one of resilience, dedication, and the unwavering belief that every person deserves a fair chance to rebuild.
