REVIEW

I paid him to handle an issue as I was out of the state at the time. He did not show up for a court date and I was reprimanded by the judge. I had to fly across the country to show up for the new date because Hayes would not answer emails or phone calls. Even then, he didn't show up. I repeatedly... requested all the materials I gave him concerning the issue to be returned as the materials were my records (approximately 5000 pages). Hayes never answered the requests. Hayes never returned the materials.

Relationship: Co-worker

"I wholeheartedly endorse John Hayes. He brings a compassion and tenacity to every client's case, regardless of its size. A true champion for all. I've often said that if you can't get along with John Hayes, even as an adversary, then you can't get along with anyone. He advocates fiercely, but with a reasonableness that aids successful resolutions."
