Scott Hayward is a great real estate attorney

Mr. Hayward was hired to help process and negotiate a short sale. He clearly has a wealth of experience and knowledge, which was critical in advising me along the way. The process took six months in total and involved multiple approvals, balancing a first and second lien, changing laws, and negotia...ting with buyers in an unstable market. Scott and his team are flexible and definitely look out for your interests. He had great advice throughout the process and it was a positive outcome in the end. All in all, Scott and Darla did a commendable job and I would not hesitate using them again for another real estate matter. I would have appreciated more timely responses at certain times, but understand he's busy and short sales take their own timelines.

Many thanks to Mr Hayward for the Short Sale Assistance

Mr Hayward and his team handled the short sale of my primary residence. Over the 7 months of the process, the Hayward Law Group frequently dealt with the bank in a professional and timely manner that kept the process moving along. With so much red tape and pitfalls in the short sale process, Mr Haywa...rd and his team navigated through the legalese to come to a great closure position with the bank. Having his expertise to read through the acceptance letters of both my loans on the home gave me the peace of mind that this short sale is permanently behind me. I am a details person, and therefore, would have liked to be kept more aware of the play by play throughout the short sale process. Overall, I am glad to have met Mr Hayward and am thankful for his services!

Scott Hayward was the best lawyer I have ever had!

Scott was the best lawyer I have ever had! He really stuck with me throughout the short sale I was involved in. There were times that I thought that the sale wasn't going through, adn we were wating our time, but he told me to persevere, and we ended up getting thorugh the process. I would rec...ommend him again and again for any type of transaction that required a real estate lawyer.

Excellent

I want you to know how pleased I am with your service and due diligence. I have never seen anyone or any firm as determined as Hayward Law Group in obtaining resolutions. I have been dealing with a Corporate Giant for quite some time. They have put myself and Hayward in a huge circle of never ...ending shenanigans. If it had been any other company I feel they would of gave up. But they went above and beyond and were determined not to take it. I commend you. We finally got the big payoff. Everything will soon be in order. Persistence pays off and good companies like yourselves who do not give up and are there for the little guy (like me) make the difference. I can’t say thank you enough.

I definitely recommend their services

My personal experience in obtaining my Loan Modification with Hayward Law Group has simply been outstanding. They were extremely quick in submitting my information to my Lender as well as obtaining a quick and satisfying result for me. I have nothing but great things to say about them and how they ma...de me feel secure and in good hands from the beginning. I definitely recommend their services as obtaining the best and quickest results when it comes to a Loan Modification. Thank you for being so sincere and upfront in handling my entire loan modification process.
