Russell R Hatten

Top review for Russ Hatten. He represented me in a car-related bicycle crash during 2014 in which the driver was at fault but there were no independent witnesses to the crash. Mr. Hatten was superior in his initiative and knowledge of the law and local/state processes, and he was highly effective o...n the case, achieving the best possible results for me as his client. He displayed competence and ethics in all elements of the legal action. Finally, Russ was a personable gentleman who was great to work with. I would highly recommend him as an advocate for injury-related actions.

Russell R. Hatten did a fantastic job on my case. I had a nasty car wreck on Highway 285 in Jefferson County and had hired an attorney based on a reference from a friend. The first attorney for my case ended up being horrible. We looked up Russell in Super Lawyers and gave him a shot. He looked at m...y case free of charge and told me he believed he could get a much better settlement than what was offered to my previous attorney. Russell basically doubled my settlement and I know he could have done better if my previous attorney had not given me some horrible advice (which said previous attorney later denied giving). Russell displays all of the characteristics and behaviors of an exceptional attorney. He is up to date on current legal settlements and will update himself for your specific case in the specific area where the case is occurring, is very prompt in his contact with everyone involved in the case, is courteous and polite, does not waste your time with BS yet doesn't rush you into things, and is definitely willing to fight for you and try your case (the defense will know this). I would absolutely call Russell R Hatten again and strongly refer him to anyone in Colordado.

I am a former trial litigator myself (Virginia). When the injury occurred to my wife in the spring of 2012 I sought the opinion of numerous Colorado, as well national litigators. Russ Hutten's name, and his partner, Jim Chalat of Chalat Law, kept coming up as the absolute top rate individuals/law fi...rm to bring our personal injury law case to. From the very beginning the case was thoroughly explained to us, as well as what expectations we should have regarding its likely outcome. We were kept thoroughly informed at every stage of the case, and the ultimate favorable outcome was very much in line with our early expectations. My wife and I are extremely pleased with the outcome of the case, and with the high degree of professionalism by everyone at Chalat law. Mr. Hatten is, in my opinion, a first rate attorney and I have absolutely no reservations about recommending him, Jim Chalat and the entire firm of Chalat Law.

Russell Hatten is an outstanding lawyer. He has the respect of his peers and the judiciary. As a lawyer myself, I recognized the high degree of professionalism he exhibited throughout the entire period of his representation. I was impressed by his expertise and effectiveness. I would enthusiastically... recommend him.

I was referred to Mr. Hatten to assist in a personal injury case for my minor son related to injuries sustained in a skiing accident. Russell was always available, promptly answering all questions & inquiries, and was of great assistance to my wife and I through this foray in the legal arena. Russe...ll is extremely knowledgable about the law and is a true professional.
