oustanding!!!!!

When I had a surgery go horribly wrong I had no idea how to find a good lawyer. After speaking with probably 10 different lawyers I settled on Hutton Sentell because he seemed to be very knowledgeable of my condition and he always called me back. I actually had several conversations with him before... I had made up my mind to actually hire him. Not have ever gone through a lawsuit I had no idea what to expect but Hutton and his team was sure to take the time to sit with me and tell me exactly what was going to happen and approximte time frames. I always had my questions answered and my phone calls returned the same day. During my malpractice proceedings my 17 year old son was visiting family out of the state and was in a horrible car accident. He was a passenger. At first I contacted an out of state attorney because I thought that's what I had to do. It only took 2 phone calls with this other attorney to realize he was not going to take care of my sons needs. I called Hutton and explained the situation to him and he then became my sons attorney as well. My sons case was settled quite quickly and he got a very nice settlement. My case did eventually settle as well and I must say I am happy with the results. So when my sister was rear ended a couple months ago and was getting nowhere with the insurance company I told her she must call Hutton. After working with Hutton for approximately 3 years [medical malpractice takes a long time] I felt like we were family. Even after my case settled I still get the occasional email just to see how things are going. And if I ever have to use an attorney again it will definately be Hutton Sentell.

A+ in Absolutely Nothing

Lied to me about filing a law suit. Told me nobody sues for medical malpractice anymore because of tort reform causing me to miss the statue of limitations. But now all of the sudden he becomes a medical malpractice expert. He charged me 4 times to obtain one set of medical records. Tried to be paid... a second time for expenses he had already been paid for. He sent unrelated bills to the insurance as part of the claim. I didn't expect him to make everything better but I didn't expect to make everything worse. He shouldn't be allowed to practice law. It's shameful what he's has done.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. I have had the tremendous pleasure of working with Hutton on several legal matters for the past eight years. Over the years Hutton has proved to be one of the best plaintiff trial lawyers I have worked with. Hutton's ability to work through tough legal matters, logically and rationally, is extremely impressive and second to no one. He is a compassionate advocate for his clients, yet at the same time he can be a fierce warrior, stopping at nothing to achieve justice for innocent victims. Anyone who is fortunate enough to have Hutton in their corner should take comfort knowing that one of the very best is fighting for their rights. I would recommnend Hutton to anyone in need of a personal injury or medical malpractice trial lawyer."
