Option Purchase Agreement

We had a need for a three year purchase agreement between my mother-in-law and her son ( who lives out of the country), for the sale of her home while she continued to live there. My wife and her sister wanted make sure their mother was protected in the case of unforeseen medical/financial circumstan...ces, she would have the ability to accelerate the close date of purchase or have the ability to sell the property if her son was unable to fulfill the contract. Scott put together a very fair agreement which satisfied all parties, which can be rather sticky between family members. He proposed a couple of options and explained everything very clearly in meetings with the family members. After the parties agreed on the proposal, he took care of all of the details in the agreement and agin went over the final draft with everyone. He was generous with him time and even though there were some time pressures to complete this while her son was here in AZ during the holidays, Scott was very accommodating to our schedules. I will certainly work with him in the future if we have needs in his fields of expertise.

Helpful and Knowledgeable

Scott is a great lawyer to work with on bankruptcy. He is knowledgeable and experienced. He was very specific on everything we needed to do and explained our options. He did not charge a fee just to discuss our case before we made the final decision to file and to hire him. Some attorneys will charge... you a fee to even start discussing the process with you. Scott was always willing to answer questions and always treated us with respect. I would highly recommend him for anyone considering bankruptcy! I was very thankful that we chose him to represent us.

Wonderful Bankruptcy Attorney

Scott Hyder took the time to get to know my situation and actually listened to me. He kept me in the loop through the entire process and any questions I had were answered quickly. I can not say enough about how much he alleviated so much of my worry and stress. Scott is very comfortable to talk to an...d he was on top of things. Scott Hyder explain the difference between chapter 7 and 13 and which would best help me. His response whether by phone or email was always prompt. I highly recommend Scott Hyder as he knows hs business and he did a WONDERFUL job. Thank you very much Scott.

Professional, Informative and On time

Mr. Hyder is very professional and explained all of our options to us through out the course of our bankruptcy. He made sure we understood what was going on and answered all of our emails and phone calls each day. It is important to trust your lawyer, and we were able to do just that with Scott.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I have known and worked with Scott for several years. He is one of the most caring and considerate people I have ever met. As a lawyer he exemplifies the ultimate professional. I include Scott in a small handful of attorneys who I hold in the highest possible regard. Scott fights hard for his clients. He does not use his clients as guineas pigs in order for him to learn the law. He is an adamant researcher and a practical problem solver. Scott has a wonderful reputation in the bankruptcy community and is well respected by his fellow lawyers and judges. In additional to being a great lawyer Scott is a gifted teacher. He has been a law professor for several years. I have had the experience of meeting with some of his law students. They all have wonderful things to say about Professor Hyder. His love of the law is reflected in their eyes. The legal profession will better as a result of his dedication to his students and the practice of law. I am blessed to know Scott."
