Testimonials
We asked some of our clients to share their experiences with our firm; their responses are shown below. You will see there is no mention of the amount of their respective recoveries. The amounts and circumstances of our clients’ recoveries are deeply personal, and in some cases, governed by confidentiality provisions. Also, no two cases are alike. Each case depends on a detailed analysis which makes it virtually impossible to predict the outcome of one case based on another. What you can predict is our office will treat you with kindness and compassion, and we will be thorough and zealous in advocating your case.
I am a practicing attorney of 30 years who found myself in need of a personal injury attorney to handle a case that involved complicated liability and coverage issues. The case also involved extremely delicate emotional issues involving minors. I hired John Hyatt and I found his professionalism, sensitivity, preparation, and final result excellent. It was not clear liability or an easy case to handle. The case settled for policy limits after his work through discovery, legal research, and preparation. I highly recommend that you hire Mr. Hyatt as your counsel in cases involving personal injury.

He can be counted on to provide the best legal representation available, and his exemplary character is unimpeachable. When my family and I needed someone to represent our interests, John was there to guide and help us reach a successful resolution. For legal representation of the highest quality, I wholeheartedly recommend John Hyatt.

In December 2016, my wife and I were in an accident on I-20. My wife suffered broken ribs and several other injuries, and I crushed my L-1 vertebrae. When I learned the accident was caused by an individual with only minimum liability coverage our corporate lawyer suggested I hire a lawyer. I asked my personal lawyer for a reference and was directed to John Hyatt. John worked diligently for over a year and secured settlements from not just the primary insurance company but from my own and even my employer’s coverage. Since my wife passed while the claims were pending, John also handled the required distribution of my wife’s settlement proceeds between my daughters and me. The whole experience was swift and painless on my part. I have and will continue to refer John to friends or others who need representation. He is definitely of high integrity and moral stature.

My elderly mother was seriously injured when the front axle of a passing car broke, colliding with our car, and sending us into a spin across four lanes of an interstate highway. My mother spent hours in the emergency room, days in ICU, and weeks in rehab. A friend of the family was a retired judge. He thought that we might find some help in meeting with an attorney named John Hyatt. John was exactly who we needed. He was patient, compassionate and professional. He knew the questions to ask, the hurdles needed to get past, and the legal steps to navigate for a successful outcome. My best recommendation is to say that I would use John Hyatt again if the need presented itself. He is trustworthy. He is caring. He produced results.

Being faced not only with the physical trauma after a fall through an open floor in a retail business, but also the emotional difficulties which lingered for an extended period, was extremely painful for my wife and me. John Hyatt’s extensive knowledge of the law in this area helped greatly in bringing the matter to a positive conclusion. More importantly, his compassion and understanding helped both of us as we walked through this scary time in our lives. Both of us are very grateful for his help and appreciate everything he did for us.

I was looking for a good attorney to represent me after my automobile accident. I did not want to hire one of those T.V. attorneys. I wanted a personal attorney to represent me. I called a good friend of mine who spoke very highly of John. I wanted someone who would not turn me over to a staff attorney. I gave John a call. He took my case. He was more than I expected. He was there all the way. From start to finish. John Hyatt is not just my attorney, but now he is also my friend. I have referred several friends to him. He is a man who came through on everything that he says.

Most lawyers I’ve met seemed to be most concerned about themselves. They wanted to make the most money they could make and quickly as possible with little or no concern for their clients. The first time I needed a lawyer it was just as I feared. I could never get in touch with him, he didn’t return my calls. I got so frustrated I just gave up. Many years later I was in an accident when an improperly repaired stair-step gave way. My fall resulted in major spinal surgery. I knew I was going to need a lawyer, a good one. A friend recommended John Hyatt. Things were completely different from the first time I called John’s office. His assistant was so kind to me, and I got an appointment to see him the following week. I knew he had many clients, but he and his assistant made me feel like I was the only one. They knew my name when I called, and my calls were returned in a timely manner. I felt John worked as hard for me as he would have for his own family. Unfortunately, over the following years I was involved in two car accidents, neither of which were my fault. I sustained bad injuries in both, and when I called John again for help, I received the same quality care and attention as always, and I was pleased with the outcomes. I highly recommend John Hyatt.

I spent seven years working for a very well respected law firm. I had the opportunity to understand what a good attorney can do for a client. John Hyatt is that kind of lawyer. We spoke to several attorneys, but were dissatisfied with their performances. Then we were referred to John Hyatt, and knew we found the right lawyer to represent us. From that point on, the case moved smoothly under John's guidance. We couldn't have been more satisfied with his handling of the case. John is exceptional and deserves the credit for the successful outcome.
