About Colin
Colin Diamond practices law in Illinois. He came to the work after studying at the University of Notre Dame and earning his law degree at Indiana University — South Bend. The path was straightforward. He completed undergraduate study in 2009 and his J.D. in 2012.
He joined the State Bar of Illinois in 2012 and has maintained membership since then. After law school he began practicing in Illinois and has built a career inside the state’s civil courts. His training at Notre Dame and Indiana University — South Bend provided a foundation in legal reasoning and courtroom procedure that he has applied in day-to-day practice.
Diamond is part of Mathys & Schneid Personal Injury Lawyers. At the firm he works on matters arising from accidents and other personal injury claims. His cases involve the sort of everyday disputes that move through state trial courts: contested liability questions, negotiations over damages, and court appearances when settlements do not resolve the dispute.
Colin’s work centers on representing people who say they were harmed by another party’s negligence. He handles initial investigations, gathers evidence, deals with insurance companies, and prepares cases for trial when necessary. He appears in hearings and files motions when those steps are required. The practical demands of personal injury litigation—timelines, medical records, depositions—shape how he organizes a case and communicates with clients.
Clients and colleagues describe him as deliberate in his preparation. He explains next steps in plain language and keeps documentation orderly. He does not avoid the procedural parts of litigation. He pursues discovery and pushes for clear records so that factual disputes can be addressed efficiently.
Outside the courtroom, he keeps current with developments affecting Illinois civil practice and maintains ties to the State Bar that reflect ongoing professional engagement. He has remained based in Illinois since his admission in 2012. He currently practices at Mathys & Schneid Personal Injury Lawyers, handling personal injury matters for clients in the state.
