Kim Karen Wyatt

My case was recommended over to Kim Wyatt after my first attorney's lawfirm stopped doing workers comp cases. Since being on my case she has done everything she can to help me move forward with getting surgery and also to recieve temporary benefits. Kim wyatt always responds to email's in a timely ma...nner usually the same day. She definitely has a strong background in workers comp cases and I strongly recommend her to anyone needing help with the workers comp process!

As someone who never missed work, who never had been injured on the job, I was shocked by the treatment & lack of care in the way my injury was handled by workers comp insurance. Kim handled my case in a most professional manner. She is a very personable & knowledgeable attorney who was amazing at my... hearing. She came prepared to win my case & completely dismantled the opposition, The other lawyer would attempt to make a point only to be shot down in flames by Kim. She dominated the hearing with her familiarity & grasp of Tx Workers Comp. I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone who was injured at work.

As an traumatized and injured employee with no previous WC knowledge/experience, I initially chose to have an ombudsman assist me with my claim. However, after having to constantly fight for simple medical treatment & prescription coverage, enduring overly aggressive behavior by private investigator...s, dealing with a very nasty & difficult adjuster (to put it lightly) and an equally difficult opposing attorney, I knew that I needed to obtain an attorney for my physical and mental wellbeing. After performing extensive online research on WC attorneys and reaching out to family, friends, and neighbors, one attorney (Atty. Kim Wyatt) along with Law Offices Bailey & Galyen were consistently referred to me. With the lack of quality WC attorneys in the DFW area, I knew if I was consistently hearing that Atty. Wyatt was the best of the best (hands down) then I needed to contact her. My first consultation with Atty. Wyatt was thorough and in-depth. She not only obtained a detailed summary of my WC claim thus far, but she truly LISTENED to me, something I have not felt in a long time as it pertained to my WC claim. Not only did she give me the time to be heard, she instantly took on my case, filed representation with TDI-DWC within 48hrs of our initial consultation and began aggressively tackling my claim. Words cannot begin to express the gratitude I have for Atty. Wyatt and her staff as we continue to work through my WC claim, having assisted me in FINALLY received prescriptions and medical care I so desperately needed in the meantime. I do want to say, as like ALL injured, and non-working employees, I unfortunately have nothing but time....ALL DAY LONG to worry and dwell on my injury, my pain, my treatments, the unfair treatment of the past, and the uncertainty of my future. This can sometimes result in reaching out to Atty. Wyatt just to get some quick advice, to provide pieces of information, etc. Regardless of the reasoning for my calls, Atty. Wyatt has always responded within 24hrs (or less) to my texts, calls and/or emails and has provided with the the advice, clarification or updates I sought, and .....MOST IMPORTANTLY....giving me 1-on-1 attention when she does. Is she busy? Yes, there is no doubt about it. I would be foolish to think I am her only client and she should be at my "beck and call" but sometimes us injured (and non-working) employees can forget about that because we have nothing but endless time on our hands. I say this because, despite her big caseload (which obviously speaks volumes to her effectiveness in WC litigation), she ALWAYS follows up in a timely manner and, again, when she does she genuinely listens and responds accordingly!!! This really means a lot to me because I know I can be a little needy at times. Additionally, despite being in the middle of my WC claim, I can confidently say that retaining Atty. Wyatt has been 100% the best decision I have made. My only regret is not retaining her sooner. Finally, with all due respect to all fellow and/or previous clients who have posted reviews here on www.avvo.com, I do NOT believe this is the proper forum in which to post derogatory, personally driven, and blatant accusatory commentary against Atty. Wyatt and/or Bailey & Galen. As adults, we should know and appreciate that there is a HUGE difference between providing a "negative comment or experience" and posting spiteful, hostile and even insulting content. It is just not necessary. Just reach out to Atty. Wyatt! I can attest that she is willing to listen.

Kim is doing a great job of helping my wife & I understand the Texas WC system. Texas's system is designed to screw the injured worker and Kim is one of a few people that is working to get my wife taken care of. My wife lost her leg in a work accident and it has been a nightmare working through the... Texas WC system. Nice to have someone who cares about my wife's well being and not worried about the insurance company not having to pay too much money. That is all the government of Texas cares about.

I contacted Kim for some advice regarding issues with my worker comp claim. She immediately engaged with helping me and even drafted emails to my employer and the workman's comp insurance provider to help resolve these issues from a legal advice stand point. She did this as part of my free consultati...on to avoid having to actually hire an attorney for this. I appreciate her willingness to avoid litigation if possible and admire her honesty and compassion she had with my claims issues. I highly recommend Kim for any workman's comp issues you are facing. I will be hiring her if I need to proceed with any legal representation in this matter.
