Scott is knowledgable and helpful

Scott represented me when a debt collection agency attempted to collect a non-recourse mortgage debt (violating the FDCPA) on behalf of their lender. He was helpful and generally forthright about the topic at hand and how to engage with the agency and even helped me pursue damages. One thing Scott di...d really well was helping me understand my options and the trade offs with each approach. I was really glad to have Scott on my side throughout this matter. I have already recommended Scott to friends. To anyone in a similar predicament, I would highly recommend Scott.

Foreclosure Debt Collection Assistance

Scott helped us clear up inaccurate information about our second mortgage liability. The mortgage company incorrectly reported that we were still liable for the debt. Scott sent letters to the mortgage company and collection agencies that cleared up the inaccuracy.

Hyder review

I was researching Lawyers and Bankruptcy information when I came across Scott's name and credentials. I narrowed my search to 3 Lawyers near me and contacted each one. Scott was the only one that spoke with me openly and did not keep trying to get me into the office. We covered a lot of information f...or what I considered a long time in the Lawyer billing world! (No charge) My wife and I waited for 6 months prior to contracting with Mr Hyder while we saved some money and I tried to handle some creditor issues myself (I wouldn't recommend that, its not for the faint of heart). Our first in person meet with Scott went great and he filled in so many details and gave us both direction and a sense of relief. Scott answered every question we had, in a timely manner, we never missed a deadline. The day we showed for our creditor meeting in court we were suprised by all the other folks there in our same position, the diffrence was quickly evident; we were prepared thanks to Scott's attention to detail! We saw many people unprepared, with representation that was just as unprepared, we were very proud to have Scott by our side! Our particular situation required a unique approach and Scott took us through it successfully! We would use Scott again but hope to never have to! I have recommended Scott to family and friends and I will continue to do so.

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."
