Throughout the entire process, Shay was on top of everything and very professional. She fought for us like my granddaughter was her own child and never once backed away even though it was a long drawn out mess. I will be forever thankful for her guidance and strength, her vast knowledge and kindness. I would recommend her highly.

Shay was excellent through the daunting process of all this. Very concise on the process. Genuinely involved and understood the goals on my end. Very communicative from beginning to end. Happy with her skills and the outcome she obtained for me a my son.

Shay handled a very complex custody and parenting plan case for me, along with a number of related issues. We worked together for the better part of a year. She was able to coordinate the best possible settlement for me and my children despite the other party’s resistance to participate in the process. Shay was persistent, creative, and always kept my best interest and that of my children at the forefront of every action. She firmly held boundaries for me when I wasn’t strong enough to advocate for myself and/or felt like giving in or giving up. She took on as much as she could herself, translated the legalese, and guided me step-by-step on the things that I had to do myself. The case turned out to be far more complex & frustrating than any of us anticipated, but she stuck it out and got us to the finish line without having to go to trial. She made sure that I had everything I needed to move forward as we wrapped things up. In addition, she has been a great resource in the aftermath. She heard about an issue that popped up and checked in with me to offer her assistance. And I recently had a question for her that required a bit of research. She took the time to get me the information that I was requesting and answer follow-up questions. I recommend Shay to anyone that needs a strong advocate to help navigate the complexities of the family court system. Wishing you the best possible outcome for the highest & greatest good.

I hired Shay for my child support modification. The process was smooth and completed in a couple of weeks (the other party was joint filing). Shay emailed me with updates and I always knew where we were in the process. She also provided me with some good advice on the what to do if I were to ever change the parenting plan which I really appreciated. I would not hesitate to work with her again.

i do not know where to start as i am still overwhelmed by how hard this beautiful lady helped me through divorce and child custody. Shay became my attorney whilst i was not even in WA at the time or even the country. She was highly recommended by a friend who had also used her services. Shay helped me, guided me, kept me same throughout the process. she got me back to the States and through the court cases so professionally. i had so many melt downs and did not understand a thing. she comforted me, educated me and was there for me anytime regardless of the time difference. She was the only attorney that was patient and had knowledge of how to handle this case as i am from England, married an american and had a child that was born in seattle. there were so many hurdles which i could not imagine over coming but she was calm , fair and collected all the way. She won all of my cases and even found me a place to live, and ways to overcome the challenges i was facing after the divorce to get back on my feet and be reunited with my child that was taken from me. i can honeslty say, hand on my heart Shay is an ANGEL, she blew me away when we went into court and was so impressively on point even the judge was impressed. it was like a movie, so surreal. she was so succinct and professional i remember it like it was yesterday. i do and always will recommend Shay and can not thank her enough. if you are thinking of using Shays services, please do not hesitate or even think about it, just do it . its miraculous how my life has changed because of all her kind help and she is such a great communicator.humble,patient and caring. Thank you Thank you Thank You. Prayers and love always for you, so grateful

Shay was an absolute godsend for our family. She was recommended to us by supervised visitation organization. I did quite a bit of calling around to fam law attorneys- so I spoke to many law offices during my search. She called me back herself (not an assistant) and during our phone consultation she took the time, was patient with me & answered all of my questions. (Some don't- trust me! ) I knew right away she was going to be great. She took the stress out of the entire situation for us. She was always quick to respond to emails, she did what she said she was going to do, she did things in a timely manner & she was sure to check with us on important details, exploring every option with us, before making any decisions. In the end, the outcome was better than we thought possible. We couldn't be happier with our choice and I would definitely use her again. I'd recommend Shay in a heartbeat to any friend of mine looking for a family law attorney.

I contacted Shay in 2018 regarding a subpoena I received from the mother of my child and quickly adapted to the situation. After a few days before the deadline of responding, she had everything ready. We’ve gotten a parenting plan after everything before going into court, so I appreciate her not trying to get more money out of her clients. After a year, another issue arises regarding the parenting plan and accusations, and although we had to go to court, she had everything on file prior to fight against. I appreciate Shay for her quick response and dealing with the issues in a timely manner.

I was referred to Shay in 2019 by one of her clients. From our very first conversation to the conclusion of my case I experienced the Best service from Shay. She's very kind. She makes it clear that she cares about your wants/needs. She is also very straight forward and realistic about family court outcomes and prepares you for what could be uncomfortable results. I am so glad I had her by my side during my parenting plan process. Shay is the first attorney I've ever worked with or needed. I am very happy with her service and the outcome of my case. She is a beast in the courtroom and takes her clients and cases very seriously! I would refer her to anyone who is seeking legal representation centered around her practice.

Shay is amazing!!!! I had to hire her in short notice and she was there to help right away, I’ve never had a lawyer before but I am SO GRATEFUL I had her for my first time. I have nothing but great things to say about her and HIGHLY recommend her if you need a lawyer in any of her expertise!!

I hired Shay Story to represent me in my parenting plan case. Her knowledge and expertise and especially her thoroughness in preparing my case exceeded my expectations. She is efficient and the parent plan was finalized in short period of time .I highly recommend her.

Shay, provided us with excellent service. She was quick to respond to our questions and timely with proving the court with documentation. Shay went out of her way to ensure we were provided with the right documents and even met with us to capture signatures. Should the need every exits again, my first call will be to Shay. We are very satisfied with her service!!

She was great through my entire divorce. I’ve known her for years...she is honest and fair. Aside from being a good lawyer, she’s an incredible person with a great heart! I highly recommend her.
