This is what happened with a client that approached Skyles Law Group, LLC.

“For their constant harassment by their former mortgage holder, and the attempt to foreclose on a house they didn’t even have a mortgage on, we were able to get an out of court cash settlement for $15,000.00.  We are very happy with the results”, said James Skyles, Principal of Skyles Law Group.

This is what happened with a client of Skyles Law Group, LLC.  They came to them with their problem.  Their initial claim was only for $3,000.00 for the replacement of some items.  They were able to get a settlement for $8,500.00, which covered the replacement of items that could not be repaired, and the complete restoration of items that could be repaired.

“Often times, people don’t want to involve attorneys, and handle it on their own.  This is a mistake”, said Skyles Law Group attorney, James Skyles.  “Here we have a situation where the client was put in a bind by a company they put their trust in.  The company was only willing to give depreciated value, they wanted replacement value.  We were able to get them more than twice what they asked.”

Skyles cautioned, “Every situation is unique, and while this type of result is not unique to the services we provide, there is no way we can guarantee a particular result.  But we always do our best to meet the needs of our clients”.
