What Our Clients Say

Reviews from Houston property owners, investors and business clients.

5 out of 5 stars

I am sincerely grateful for your faith in me.

Mr. Hunter, You took my little case against Shoprider, et al., when no one else would. I thank you for that. Now I have had to prioritize my well-being.  I felt you could take over my fight and I could just let go while you took them on for me.

My faith in being able to let this go to your trusted care broke when I received what I thought was the final draft of the complaint.  I learned that I did need to stay engaged to a level I cannot meet. At any rate, I probably would not be here to the end of the legalities. I must now realize 87 year olds are, after all, vulnerable. Not self-pity.  Just accepting reality. I am sincerely grateful for your faith in me.

Knowledgeable, Highly Competent and Professional

After Hurricane Harvey damaged our condo, our insurance and HOA were pointing fingers at each other regarding liability. It got really complicated, and after trying to resolve the issue on our own, we began to realize we needed legal assistance. Thankfully, we found Charles Hunter who helped us navigate our legal options. He was knowledgeable, highly competent and professional, and won our case. I would definitely recommend Mr. Hunter if you are looking for an experienced attorney who will work hard for you.

First-Rate Knowledge of the Law

Charles Hunter has provided excellent services and put his first-rate knowledge of the law on full display. He is professional, extremely reachable and responsive. He takes time to get to know you and your case. Because of my own experiences with Charles, I have referred several new clients to him and they are super pleased. Charles has made all legal matters a walk in the park for me and several friends and we couldn’t be happier. I highly recommend Hayes Hunter law firm – they do not disappoint!

Excellent Job, Impressed by How Responsive

Charles Hunter represented me in connection with a debt collection matter. He did an excellent job of handling the case, which was successfully resolved. I was particularly impressed by how responsive he was. I have worked with a number of attorneys over the years who may do good work, but are slow to respond, or do not complete the needed work in a timely fashion. This was never a problem with Charles.

Deep Experience Gets the Matter Handled

Charlie has become my company’s attorney this past year. We have had several incidents where he has been remarkably responsive and thorough. He is very fair about his time, and with his deep experience gets the matter handled much more effectively and at lower cost then our prior firm’s associates delivered.
