About

 A serious lawyer for your serious case. -          Unique qualifications.  There are many excellent Georgia lawyers competing for your serious case of  back and neck injury, spinal cord injury, brain injury, amputation injury, burn injury or wrongful death.  The best ones do not advertise on TV or billboards. No one lawyer can honestly claim to be the best for every case.  But, for whatever it is worth, Ken Shigley is the only lawyer in Georgia who combines all these qualifications:(1)    past president of the State Bar of Georgia (2011-12), chair of the Institute for Continuing Legal Education in Georgia Board of Trustees (2012-13), and trustee of the Institute for Continuing Judicial Education in Georgia (2013-14);(2)    board certified civil trial advocate of the National Board of Trial Advocacy (since 1995);(3)    published author on personal injury practice in Georgia (Georgia Law of Torts: Trial Preparation & Practice, 2010-14);(4)    Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum, based on track record of seven figure verdicts and settlements;(5)    top peer ratings in Martindale-Hubbell Law Directory (“AV Preeminent” since 1995), Super Lawyers (Atlanta Magazine, since 2004) and Georgia Legal Elite (Georgia Trend, since 2004);(6)    member of the Christian Legal Society since 1974;(7)    Judicial Nominating Commission nomination to the Georgia Court of Appeals (2012); and(8)    national leadership role in his practice area (secretary and chair-elect designee, American Association for Justice Motor Vehicle, Highway & Premises Liability Section).  -           Operational quality  Author of Georgia Law of Torts: Trial Preparation & Practice, Ken Shigley is continually refining proprietary case preparation protocols based on the type of fail-safe checklists used by pilots.  This is to streamline the basics and free us to focus on greater creativity in advocacy. -          Client Responsiveness We can do the best work in the world, but if we don’t explain things to clients, that isn’t good enough. Therefore, after initial screening (we only consider taking about 10% of cases brought to us), we resolve to routinely schedule a long personal interview with Mr. Shigley – at your home or hospital room if necessary -- and will schedule periodic in-person or telephone conference status reports to explain things and respond to your questions. Call or submit the online contact form today. We ordinarily respond personally to a serious personal injury or wrongful death case inquiry by the next business day. There is no obligation. If your case does not fit our practice, we may be able to guide you to the right lawyer for your case.

Ken and his assistant Christine were gracious, sweet and understanding of me and my case, be it small. It did take a little longer than I expected but once Christine came into the picture, things went smoothly and rather quickly. They made sure to answer any questions I had, and made sure I understood all the details of the case. Best of all, they kept me up to date with all the details regarding hospital bills, my insurance company, and what not. Overall I think they did an amazing job and I highly recommend them to everyone!!

Ken Shigley graciously provided much needed information regarding a Georgia Fair Business Practice Act claim. His expertise in the area was very helpful.

The law office of Ken Shigley represents all that is good in this country! From the moment I met Ken and his staff I knew, I was in good hands. God led me to this office and may I tell you, God NEVER FAILS! I sustained a terrible brain injury that GREATLY altered my life but by the Grace of God, I found a New Life! Ken and his staff were there for me all the way through and I could not recommend a better lawyer than he to have on your side! He is a Real Lawyer who truly cares about (You) the person!

Ken Shigley was referred to me by a member of my church after my daughter was killed in an automobile accident. She pulled out in front of a tractor trailer and he ran into her passenger door which killer her on impact. The truck was going a little over the speed limit but she was still at fault. Ken was still able to get a settlement for her children. Ken is a great attorney and he actually cares about his clients.

ATTORNEY KEN SHIGLEY - did his lawyer thing - and INCREASED MY "TAKE HOME AMOUNT" of settlement - the amount after paying core medical & legal fees - BY OVER 3000% (three thousand percent) MORE than what some other law firms could do. He and Courtney (his assistant) were like FAMILY! True blessings. :)

Ken was a very personable and caring attorney. Helped me out at every turn and went the extra mile. If my family had not hired him we would probably have had to settle for a lot less than what we did. I would highly recommend him to anyone involved in a complicated case like ours was.

After having to have a hole drilled in a automobile part at a machine shop 10 years ago, I told my uncle I could have done that. My uncle replied,"You are doing this once these guys do it everyday" That simply means if you don't know where to turn, get help and get an expert.Ken was that help when i was severely injured during a fatal accident. Ken and his team at Shigley Law are experts, and are here to help you during your crisis. Ken will be there during the injury, recovery, and trial. He and his firm will work hard to see that you are represented fairly! Five stars for Shigley Law!

My family hired Ken after our parents were killed in a trucking accident in GA in 2013. We worked with Ken for 19 months before our case settled. During this time I thought Ken was outstanding. He was accessible to us at all times and maintained consistent communication. He was patient with us and took time to explain the finer points of law. While we avoided going to trial, he prepared diligently and I felt like he was leaving nothing to chance. I am relieved that our case is complete and I will miss working with Ken. He was very thoughtful and caring while helping us to stay relaxed. I would highly recommend him to anyone who requires these types of services.

My mother was a passenger in a horrible car crash in Georgia when the car in which she was passenger was hit by an ex-convict who had no insurance, and who later died from a cocaine overdose. When I learned of mom's injury, I immediately flew in from California. As I work in Silicon Valley, I contacted Ken Shigley online. He met with me and my dad at the hospital ICU. He had a comforting manner, listened empathically to us in our angst, and calmly discussed with us the immediate and long term legal issues. Unfortunately, mom died from her injuries. When we were ready to deal with it, Ken laid out the strategy to optimize net recovery for the family, orchestrating all the liability, insurance, probate and Medicare / Tricare reimbursement issues. He communicated well, was sensitive to our concerns and obtained an optimal outcome. I strongly recommend Ken Shigley to anyone going through this sort of thing.

When tragedy struck our family in the form of the wrongful death of our son and caused me physical injuries and changed our lives forever, we dragged our feet about hiring a lawyer. I didn't want to face having to go through the stress. Big mistake. The first thing you do is hire local counsel. I found Mr. Shigley by surfing the web, and we got a listening ear. He was realistic, professional and worked very hard in our behalf. Not only that, he showed a genuine concern for our family, and ran interference for us on a number of issues relative to our case. If I had it to do over again, I would have hired him sooner had I known about Avvo.
