Stephanie Hyatt

Represented me for a PPO action and was successful in getting it dismissed. She is knowledgeable about the law, and what the Judge's are looking for. I would recommend her.

I hired Ms. Hyatt to help me respond to a temporary no contact order. Ms. Hyatt was remarkably calm and perceptive. In our initial meeting, I explained the charges against me and my account of relevant events. She listened carefully and gave me a realistic appraisal of the likelihood that the order would be dismissed. Ms. Hyatt has a calm demeanor that immediately put me at ease. Because she felt that we had a good case, she suggested that she contact the petitioner to offer the possibility of a contract in lieu of the no contact order, which would allow us to avoid the hearing. Ms. Hyatt contacted the petitioner worked quickly to negotiate the contract and ensure that the petitioner dismissed the order. Ms. Hyatt is very sharp, very skilled, and cost-effective. It was a delight to work with her.

Miss Hyatt began representing me in the middle of a messy case. One of which I had been falsely accused and the family court judge had already ruled against me. There was an existing sexual assault protection order between me and a juvenile. Miss Hyatt listened to the situation. She asked questions. She listened to my suggestions about how to reveal the true colors of my accuser and kept me focused. She explained why certain techniques would be seen as harassment by the judge or non-pertinent and the judge may not allow the question at all. Miss Hyatt was excellent in keeping in contact with me, following up, and making me feel that my case was important and not just one of the many in a pile. In the end she presented the DNA evidence to the judge appropriately and that was all that was needed to terminate the order. I didn't have to say a word nor did anything my accusers had to say mattered. It is very difficult to have an order changed once the judge has ruled, so this says a lot about Miss Hyatt's capabilities.
