Workers Compensation 30%

I have represented clients on many different types of claims for Missouri workers' compensation benefits. These include benefits on back & neck injuries, shoulder injuries, knee injuries, hand injuries, elbow injuries and eye injuries, plus repetitive motion exposure injuries such as carpal tunnel syndrome of the wrists and cubital tunnel syndrome of the elbows. I have fought to get many workers injured on the job medical treatment, off-work pay benefits and permanent disability money benefits.

30%
Criminal Defense 20%

I have represented clients on a wide variety of criminal cases, ranging from municipal traffic tickets of all types & felony violations. I have focused especially on traffic law violations which affect a person's drivers' s license. I always fight hard to protect my client's driving record, whether from DWI's, driving while suspended tickets, or any other tickets threatening their license or driving privilege. I also represent clients on a variety of felony charges of all kinds.

DUI and DWI 20%

I have represented numerous clients on DUI/DWI misdemeanor and felony cases in Missouri courts. I always make an effort to protect my clients' driver's licenses and continued driving privileges to the best of my ability. Missouri has both criminal DUI/DWI's as well as civil loss of driving privileges separate from criminal loss of privileges for having too high a blood alcohol content or refusal to submit to a breathalyzer test. I fight hard for all my clients on both types of cases.

20%
Car Accident 10%

I have represented numerous clients on auto accident claims for personal injuries. I always try to get for my clients fair compensation for the personal injury damages they have suffered from their accidents as well as for the fair market value of the damage to or total loss of their vehicles.

He is more than a lawyer, he was a great professional with a great sense of empathy

I have no words to express my gratitude to Mr. Thomas Hyatt. He assisted me in a legal matter few years ago. He is exceptional and provided me with the best legal advise I could find in that difficult moment. I will recommend Mr. Hyatt to anyone who is looking for a personal treatment and expedite pr...ocess. I still have tremendous respect for him and the legal advise and outcome I received from him

10 year happy client

Mr. Hyatt, or Tom, if you have known him as long as I have, has always followed through and never dropped a ball. In fact he is a great juggler and always willing to help a client. If he doesn't have an answer he will always point you in the right direction. I have always valued honesty and Tom is ...brutally honest.
