Medical Injury

I want to state that I had a medical injury caused by a medical facility, and as the injury progressed, my wife and I felt it was important to proceed with legal action against the facility. Since we lived in a different state from the state of injury, I needed to find an attorney in that state who w...ould handle my request. I connected with the law firm of Ryan LLP, Cleveland, and my wife and I met with Thomas Ryan. After explaining the case, he stated it was something he could handle, and my wife and I agreed to hire his firm. The case took three years to reach a resolution, and during that time period, the interaction with Thomas Ryan and Daniel Ryan was exemplary. Most of my interaction was with Thomas Ryan, and he performed a tremendous amount of research to gather facts regarding this type of injury. He did not hesitate to do whatever research was necessary to help us. Both he and Daniel Ryan were working diligently for us against the defendant. Both Tom and Dan would not be intimidated by the defendant, and presented many contradictory actions against the defendants wrongful claims. My wife and I are very grateful for the work performed by this law firm, and they helped us tremendously in reaching a settlement agreement. My wife and I would not hesitate at all in recommending this law firm to anyone needing to hire a law firm.

Contract Defense!

Thomas P Ryan came highly recommended to me! It turned out to be a great recommendation. I was an out-of-state defendant in a case re contracts. He quickly grasped the essence of a new field, planned a response, and won the case!!! He listened to his client and made me feel involved in what we wer...e doing. He had clarity and patience as he explained how and why he had shaped my defense..... and took us to the offense! My original attorney was quite impressed with Mr Ryan's handling of the case which did prevail. I highly recommend Mr. Thomas P. Ryan! He is a very intelligent and very capable young attorney.

Top Notch Attorney

Tom represented me in a defamation lawsuit. I had been representing myself as the defendant, but as the litigation became more complex it was clear that I would need to seek professional representation. I contacted Tom Ryan and he was immediately put at ease with his knowledge and understanding of ...defamation law. In a very short period of time, Tom submitted a Motion to Dismiss for failure to state a claim. The lawsuit was successfully dismissed with prejudice, putting an end to entire ordeal. I would not only recommend Tom Ryan's legal expertise, but I would ONLY consult him going forward in any future litigation I may come across. He is professional, extremely knowledgeable and tenacious.

The best Attorney in Town

Ryan represented me in a personal injury lawsuit. I was involved in Car accident. When Ryan first met me, he gave me a free consultation and answered all of my questions. Ryan saw an angle and after some deliberation decided to take me on as a client. I'm very glad he did, as about a year later the ...case settled for an extraordinary amount thanks to Ryan's efforts. In terms of work style, he's extremely hard-working and conscientious, all while maintaining a good sense of humour. He thoroughly researched my case and also made some crucial discoveries, the kind of which seemed more attributable to a private investigator than a lawyer. He earned our unfaltering respect and confidence. He is very good for what he does i will recommend him to anybody how asks me. He's the best.

Hired Tom Ryan for an Employment Law issue

Tom was recommended to my by another attorney and that referral ended up being fortuitous. Through Tom's tireless case law research, negotiations skills and determination to see the lawsuit to the end, I was very satisfied with the final result in my fight against a former employer. Tom's legal adv...ise was always balanced giving me both the advantages and disadvantages for various courses of action and he kept me grounded in reality. After one preliminary ruling, Tom mentioned to me that he lost sleep worrying about potential outcomes. I have worked with many attorney's in the past and this is the first time I have had an attorney lose sleep over my case. That speaks volumes for Tom's committment to excellence and his focus with always looking out for my best interests. As the case progressed Tom always took the initiative to keep me informed in a timely manner. Other attorney's I've worked with in the past were less responsive. With Tom, I never felt ignored or that I was bothering him with my questions. He always patiently answered my questions and provided me with thoughtful and sage advice. I highly recommend Tom Ryan for any law specialty his firm provides. He will get the job done.
