My name is Linda and my son in law recommended Ryan Hilts. I did not think I needed a lawyer. My son in law said “If you don’t win you don’t pay”. That made a lot of sense to me. After calling Ryan I realized how comforting it is to have a lawyer. I was in a car accident. The driver was drunk and hit me and took off. A hit and run accident. Ryan told me by Oregon Law I was able to go to the doctors. I was able to get the much needed help. My Chiropractor was amazing. It took time to heal. Ryan was always available and always called me back, when I had any questions. He is a wonderful family man. A man of integrity. He also sent emails and texts to wish our family well on all the Holidays. He went above and beyond what was expected. My case was won without a doubt. I would definitely go back to Ryan for any lawyer needs. He is a good man and you can trust him. Thank you Ryan for everything, words are not enough to express all you did for us.

G. & L. S.

I was involved in a personal accident case where the insurance company denied responsibility for nearly two years and we eventually had to go to trial. Ryan helped me through the whole process, answering my questions and keeping me informed as to what was next in the process. My first recommendation is to never get involved in an accident but if you are and an insurance company is trying to treat you unfairly, contact Ryan and he will make sure you’re informed about your rights and your best course of action. Can’t imagine where I’d be in this process without his expertise. Thanks again Ryan.

I called one of the biggest law firms in Portland and though they were unable to take my case they referred me to Ryan. From the start Ryan always had an answer for everything and handled the case better than I could have hoped for. I couldn’t be happier with the results of my case. Really professional guy, highly recommend.

Ryan did a fantastic job handling my case, despite many complications that happened along the way. At one point I temporarily relocated to Italy, and he still managed to keep in constant contact with me! He is friendly but professional and I always felt I could call him for any reason. No question was too silly or small.

Ryan is a terrific lawyer and a better person. He went above and beyond to reach a settlement in my case and believed in it when no one else did. He’s very intelligent and caring and is always putting the best interests of his clients before his own. Ryan knew more about my case than I even did. He is truly dedicated to his clients, and I can not explain how much I honestly appreciated that. I recommend that you give him a shot if you need to hire an attorney. He won’t let you down.
