Shayla Paige Steyart

I, driver #1 was struck by driver #2 from behind , while traveling on the freeway. It was a horrific accident that shut down the freeway. My minor child was in the vehicle with me. At first, I wasn’t going to hire an attorney because driver #2 accepted 100% responsibility. For several months I had to... count on friends to drive me to appointments until I could provide my own transportation. At this time, my insurance company told me that I shouldn’t be needing any further medical care for my injuries. This brought me to the decision to hire Shayla Steyart as my attorney and to represent my minor child as well. I needed on going medical care for serious injuries obtained from the accident. Shayla began contacting my insurance company immediately. At 6 months, post accident, I finally began receiving the medical care that I desperately needed. In hind sight, I shouldn’t have waited so long to hire an attorney but I’m so grateful I came to my senses . From this point on , Shayla represented me , fighting my insurance company and driver # 2’s insurance company. She’s extremely motivated to get what you deserve and was with me every step of the way. She answered questions, listened to me , gave me her time as if I were her only client. I don’t think that I could have gone through the recovery process without her. She truly cared for me as a person, with empathy and compassion and didn’t treat me as if I was only a client. In the end, Shayla fought for every penny I deserved and didn’t stop fighting until there was a fair settlement offered on the table. I highly recommend her to anyone who needs an attorney. You’ll be amazed at her diligence to fight for you and her compassionate demeanor.

A large pick up truck drove into me and my Honda Civic in July 2017, while I was stopped waiting for a red light. Local store managers witnessed the truck did not even slow down. My car was totaled and I was whiplashed which put my back and vertabrae into a condition requiring surgery. I contacted ...attorney Shayla Steyart after my first set of xrays and MRI's. Shayla was supportive and immediately cautioned me not to deal with any of the insurance companies involved, who of course questioned all billls and later offered a small settlement, but instead to forward all correspondence, bills, and Medicare problems to her. Believe me, when your in the kind of pain I was in, then more post surgical pain, and then debilitated by being strapped into a brace and having to use a walker for 3 months you are not in a position to even think , much less fight with insurance, medicare, and other bill collectors. Shayla and her staff took care of everything, leaving me free to concentrate on healing and doing my physical therapy. She was reachable, attentive and articulate. Ms Steyart is professional in the extreme and I am certainly glad I got her on my side. She got all the bills paid, and later got me a reasonable settlement, far in excess to what I was originally offered by the insurance companies. Although I may never be the same physically as I was before the "accident" Shayla Steyart 's professional help has given my back my life and my ability to continue working as a professional and commercial photographer.

Following a car accident that was ruled the other drivers fault I called the office that Shayla Steyart works at. I was unsure how to handle an accident such as I was in, where I was transported via ambulance and lost my car. I did not know how to navigate the whole insurance part of my accident. Sha...yla took my case. She was sympathetic, supportive, and always available by phone or email. I had never been in an accident where I needed an attorney and she walked me through the whole process and always kept me informed of any changes. I had lots of questions about my rights, the laws, the insurance process and she always had an answer for me. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of an attorney.

Having grown up locally in the Rogue Valley with a small blue collar working family that wasn’t very proactive about health or legal issues, I was never confident about my ability to navigate an insurance companies language or policies. I was left feeling hopeless after a complicated motorcycle accid...ent in June of 2017 where I sustained significant injuries to my shoulder and lower back. I tried with little success to find resources and navigate the personal injury claim process. After seeing an advertisement for Shlesinger & deVilleneuve regularly during my commute for work, I called assuming I would be told essentially the same thing I heard from everywhere else - “sounds like a long shot, good luck” Instead I was directed to Shayla who immediately asked me when I might be able to come in and speak with her in person. She was personable, prompt, honest and concise throughout the claim process. She handled the complexity of my case with confidence and kept me informed of what to expect as things progressed. Every time we spoke I felt that she understood how challenging and intimidating the process could be for her clients. She didn’t miss a single detail of my case and made sure we captured the highest settlement possible. Shayla and her firm have truly changed my life. I believe there is no one who could have done better, and I will absolutely recommend Shayla to any friends or family struggling with a personal injury claim.
