Ryan Michael Heron

I was referred to Ryan by a friend of the family who said that he was extremely hard-working, diligent, and cared about his clients. In the mere months it took for Ryan to handle my son’s extremely complicated criminal matters, he performed directly in-line with what I expected given his reputation.... Ryan visited my son in Jail on a weekly basis until he completed the plea negotiations and finalized all of the cases my son had pending against him. On a few occasions, he even made deposits into my son’s commissary account! In total, my son had 4 open cases against him and was looking at a total of over 40 years in prison if he was found guilty of the crimes he was accused of. Now, I will not sit here and say that my son is a saint, he has made mistakes, but none that should have cost him more than 40 years of his life! Ryan was quick to diagnose my son’s real underlying problem, his psychological disorder, which left untreated lead to his addiction to narcotics, and that lead him to commit crimes to support his addiction. Somehow, when it was all said and done, Ryan was able to make a deal with the District Attorney in which my son would only serve a maximum of 4 years before being transferred to a year-long in-patient drug addiction counseling and rehabilitation program, which was the most important thing my son needed in my opinion. Ryan worked for months on my Son’s case, and he kept me up to date the entire time. When the sentence was finally entered, and everything was finalized, I asked Ryan what I owed him and he told me that the retainer payments I made were enough to cover his fees, and that he felt I had been put through enough. This is not a lawyer like any other I have ever heard of…truly a unique and caring person. If you can get him to take your case, you are surely in great hands!

Ryan is one amazing lawyer! Not only is he professional, but also personable and really takes your feelings into account and doesn’t just see you as another case. Even though Ryan is based in Georgia, and I from New York, he still reached out to someone he knew here in NY to help me with my dispu...te. Other lawyers had brushed me off and didn’t want to waste their time, but Ryan went above and beyond to help me and was so prompt with communication and replies. When the case was finally resolved, and the sum of what I ended up getting was small, he said he wouldn’t be charging me for his time and considered his work pro bono. My case went on for months and there was lots of going back and forth, but not once did he ever hesitate in helping me and went up against big companies to make sure the wrong that was done to me was corrected. If another issue ever occurred and I needed help, without a doubt I would go straight to Ryan. If you want someone to help you who actually cares about you and doesn’t just see dollar signs, look no further because he is your guy!

Ryan handled a personal injury case for me. Our vehicle was totaled in the accident and I had to be taken to the Emergency Room in an ambulance. Even though the other driver was clearly at fault, his insurance company did not want to pay for my physical therapy. Ryan was able to get them to no onl...y cover that, but also the GAP in the value of my vehicle that was totaled AND a nice little remainder for me for my pain and suffering. He kept me informed on the status of my case every step of the way and ended up getting way more than I thought was possible. Don't let his lack of experience deter you, Ryan is a great young lawyer.
