Firm Overview

Shay & Associates — Decatur, Illinois

A different kind of law firm…dedicated to serving you.

After years of experience working with some of Central Illinois' biggest law firms, Timothy Shay had an idea. He would create a different kind of law firm—a law firm committed to giving working men, women, and families throughout this area the kind of dedicated and tenacious representation they deserve, a place where the attorneys would hold themselves to the highest standards of excellence, integrity, and professionalism, AND, a law firm that people could trust and rely on.

Contact us today and experience that difference yourself.

Before you choose a personal injury attorney...

Serving clients throughout the Central Illinois region for more than 16 years now, Shay & Associates has helped thousands of people to recover fair compensation for their losses following an accident or work-related injury. We have been able to do that largely because of the fact that our principal lawyers are actual litigators. We take cases to trial if that is what it takes to reach a fair outcome. The proven ability we have to do this AND to win is what gets the attention of the insurances companies.

At Shay & Associates, you are the most critical member of our legal team.

Whether you were hurt in a car accident or suspect that an elderly loved one is being abused at their nursing home, at Shay & Associates you will be the most critical member of our legal team. Why? Because if we don't know who our clients are, we cannot give them the representation they deserve. At our law firm, clients meet with an actual lawyer at their very first consultation and then, if they decide to hire us, continue to work closely with their lawyer throughout the case.

At every stage, our attorneys and their supporting staff are available to answer your questions and to address any concerns that you may have. We will explain the law clearly as it applies to your case, give you an honest evaluation of the strengths and weaknesses of your claim, and help you to understand what the process is going to be like, and what you can and cannot expect. As your claim moves forward, this kind of communication will continue and we will promptly let you know of any new developments as they arise. Legal decisions about the case will always be yours to make; we simply want to help you make the most informed decisions you can.

Turn to someone you can trust, call us at 217-425-5900 in Decatur, or 217-523-5900 in Springfield, today.
