Poa and Will

Scott helped me with my power of attorney and will. As a single mom it was important to have peace of mind that my son will be taken care of after I’m gone. He helped me determine whether a will or trust was the best route for my situation, answering all my questions. He not only drew up and filed al...l of my paperwork but he arranged the notary and witnesses for me. The process was fast, convenient, and affordable. On top of that he has excellent customer service and is absolutely knowledgeable and trustworthy. I would highly recommend him!

Estate Planning

I have put off my estate planning for years because I just didn't have the time.....with the recent COVID-19 pandemic, my husband and I felt we couldn't wait any longer. We hired Scott to complete our Last Will and Testaments. He suggested we also complete our Living Wills, and Power of Attorney at... the same time. This took 2 phone calls and about 6 emails. Scott was very responsive, ask pertinent questions, and explained everything succinctly. It actually took more time to have the documents notarized. I am so appreciative of Scott's help and feel satisfied that my estate planning is complete....no matter what the future holds.

Very Professional

I hired Scott Hyder to do my Will. He made me feel very comfortable, was on time for any meeting we had and was very knowledgeable. I needed this done by a certain time and he made sure it was done by then. I would highly recommend Scott Hyder! You won't de disappointed.

Compassionate, professional, knowledgable legal experience with S. Hyder

So grateful to have found Scott Hyder by recommendation of a friend. The difficult task of Power of Attorney, Living Will and such we're made some much easier by Scott's approachable and compassionate demeanor. Scott is extremely knowledgable in his field, and thoroughly went through options with me... to help me determine what was the best fit for my legal needs and also importantly what was within my budget. It was a pleasure to work with Scott, I will work with him again and will continue to recommend him to others.

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."
