Tim Shay and his associates Nick William.Amy are very diligent workers toward your case , they are honest and trustworthy, I would say I would recommend them to anyone. Thank you Shay and associates, workers comp injury case resolved. Mary 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
We selected Shay & Associates based on their positive reviews and we were not disappointed. I initially reached out to Tim Shay after what was supposed to be a routine outpatient procedure for our daughter turned into a nightmare. At the beginning, my wife was understandably hesitant, but after providing Tim with all the details surrounding the procedure and its aftermath, Tim and his team thoroughly reviewed the records with their experts and determined that we had a strong case. Tim and his team dedicated countless hours to our case and kept us well informed throughout the entire process. It was truly impressive how deeply Tim studied our case and how he could walk us through events minute by minute with incredible detail. Due to the nature of the injury, the case took a couple of years to resolve, but during that time Tim and his team were always available, responsive, professional, and friendly. We are extremely thankful for Tim and his team’s hard work in successfully settling our case. They gave 100% effort every step of the way and were outstanding from start to finish. We would recommend Shay & Associates to anyone in a heartbeat.
Thank you Hernan and Christian. It was my pleasure and honor to represent your family in this unfortunate mistake by doctors whom we place our trust in. I have been impressed by the strength and resolve from you both. Thank you for entrusting your case with my firm

Michelle, thank you so much for your glowing review! You were always such a joy. It was a pleasure representing you in your personal injury case. <br>-Stephanie
A great lawyer Mr Shay
First and foremost, I want to say Thank You so very much for handling my case I originally talked with Tim Shay and I also talked with Nick. Both of which i was highly pleased with their professionalism. They both seamed to care about MY best interest. Stephanie is the attorney that I delt with the most. She is straight forward with eplaining whats going on, answering questions, and truely had my best interest first and formost. She was strong-willed and very aggressive when dealing with my (former) employer, and setteled my lawsuit with an amount that was fair for my injury. If anyone is ever in need of a good attorney, I would VERY HIGHLY RECOMMEND calling Shay and Associates and talking with one of the attorneys there. As for me and my case they jumped in, got started and didn’t stop until it was settled!!
I wanna tell the world my awesome experience with the office of shay and associates!! I am not an easy person to deal with let's start there! But never once did the team let me down! I felt like I was talking to a family member when I came in office! (Big shout out to Nicholas) , Thank you to the whole team! Your work, improved my life! I pray i never have a accident again, but if I do I will not hesitate to call the team!! 5 stars! Highly recommend!
I can’t say enough good things about Shay & Associates! From the very first phone call to make an appointment, I was treated with kindness and respect. When I met with Nick and Amy to talk about whether I had a workers’ comp case, they were so honest, friendly, and really took the time to walk me through what to expect. It turned out I did have a case, and Nick and Amy were amazing through the whole process. They kept me informed every step of the way, worked hard, and always made me feel like my case mattered. Nick told me from the start it would be a tough one, but they didn’t hesitate to fight for me — and they won! Whether it was in person, over the phone, or by email, I was always treated with kindness and kept in the loop. If you’re looking for a law firm that truly cares and fights for you, this is the one.
Shay & Associates are the best ...I had a work injury a few months ago and my lawyer Tim and his Assistant Amy worked diligently and prompt giving me the best results one could ask for ...they were consistent and patient and adamant about explaining the steps toward resolving my case...I will definately recommend work collegues and friends to this law firm in near future, if they need Professional Lawyers to handle their case.
Shay & Associates Law Firm handled my Workers Compensation claim with the upmost care and professionalism. With Mr. Shea, Nick Williams, Amy, Corey and the entire staff by my side; I felt assured and confident. My case was given the attention necessary to achieve a positive outcome. If you are in need of legal services; I highly recommend this firm!
Run, don’t walk. Do not use this lawyer. She’s claiming my emails are aggressive. She got irritated when I stopped medical treatment to be able to work to pay for my grandmas funeral and dropped a personal injury but continued the comp. Then she dropped the comp. She also claimed I didn’t approve something and when I pulled up the email and gave her the day and time I approved it her story changed. Finally she sold me she doesn’t think I understand. I may not be a lawyer but I’m not an idiotic piece of trash either.
Stephanie did a great job in taking care of my personal injury case. Very professional and well in communication and was able to get me a fair and reasonable settlement. I would highly recommend Shay & Associates to anyone.
Tara, thank you so much for your positive review. It was a pleasure representing you in your personal injury case. <br>-Stephanie
I’m still on my recovery journey from a 3 level total disc replacement which happened at work my loyalty & my heart for where I work and what I do allowed me to procrastinate on hiring counsel after weeks of disrespect and mental abuse from wc . Finally I was referred to get help and saw them on a bus driving past . Since my day one meeting I have been highly impressed EVERYONE IN THERE WHOLE OFFICE MRS STEHANIE MRS APRIL MRS STEPHANIES HUSBAND LIKE THE WHOLE TEAM ARE AMAZING. They stand on business. The communication is above and beyond I know I’m in great hands and forever grateful for your team just felt like sincerely saying thank you for stepping in and taking my case serious
Rachelle, thank you so much for your stellar review. It is such a pleasure representing you in your workers compensation case. <br>-Stephanie
Updated: 8/17/2025. Update 7/21/2025 Tim Shay did call back to apologize, thank you. Not even 1/2 star for a review based on conversation with Mr. Shay personally via the phone 7/18/2025. We talked about so much more going back to 1989. My first employment with the State of Illinois, Illinois Industrial Commission. 2/6/89.
I recently had the privilege of working with the Shay and Associates team. They tirelessly navigated their way through the endless insurance company fighting and were able to secure a fair settlement. Many thanks to Stephanie Shay-Williams and the rest of the Shay team for their diligence and commitment on my behalf.
Mike, it was a pleasure representing you in your personal injury and workers' compensation cases. Accidents that apply to both work comp and personal injury can be complicated, I am glad we were able to successfully resolve your case. <br>-Stephanie
I met with Tim Shay he explained to me that he would send the documentation from a 13-14 year service he provided, and he did so in an expeditious manner which helped me complete a financial concern that developed. I appreciated everything that Tim provided which benefited me and my family. He did so pro-bono. I would highly would recommend Tim Shay and associates for any legal concerns! -Signed Frank Shimkus.
Frank, it was a pleasure to help you and your family. My firm takes pride in our ongoing commitment to our clients even after the case has resolved
Mr.Shay and Ms Taylor were great to work with. They went above and beyond and met all expectations! The communication was great, and great representation in a time of need ! I would definitely use them in the future, and refer them to anyone.
Brian, thank you for your review. I am thankful that we could help you with your injury claim
I cannot say enough to thank everyone at Shay and Associates, especially Stephanie, for helping me during a very difficult time following a severe work injury. I should have contacted them from the beginning days of my injury. I waited thinking all would be fine and I lost my job. Lesson learned, and here is some advice to others, if you are ever hurt at work, heaven forbid, call your doctor and then call Shay and Associates. Thank you again.
Cheryl, it was an absolute pleasure representing you in your workers' compensation case. I can't wait to see how you carve out your next chapter. You're such an inspiration!<br>-Stephanie
We met with Stephanie Shay-Williams for a free consultation. Stephanie advised us on our situation in a very professional and straightforward manner. We are grateful for the time she spent with us. Stephanie was an invaluable source of information. When legal matters come up in the future, we will definitely turn to Shay & Associates.
Thank you so much for your kind review, it was a pleasure meeting with you!<br>-Stephanie
Tim Shay and Associates helped my family and I during a traumatizing time. This is the second time that I have asked for Mr. Shay’s services. Both times have been successful and I am very pleased with Mr. Shay’s ability on taking care of each situation. I have received kindness, sympathy and empathy from Mr. Shay and his team. Cory Taylor, Mr. Shay’s paralegal was phenomenal on keeping me up to date on all information. I highly recommend Mr. Shay and Associates for their services.
Thank you Patricia for the kind words. It was our privilege to represent your family during the traumatizing time of the loss of your husband and the patriarch of your family.
My experience with Shay & associates was prefect I didn’t expect the most from them but that’s what I received as a client with them and I am truly thankful for them. very dedicated trustworthy people. Stephanie Shay-Williams is who I went through . She fights for the worth & will not fail you . Great supporter when you feel down about the case she’s great lawyer to have
