I contacted Russell R. Hatten after being involved in an automobile accident in which I was rear-ended by an uninsured motorist. Upon impact I was then pushed into the vehicle in front of me, causing me to rear-end that vehicle. Mr. Hatten was able to navigate the situation to make sure the party at fault for these two collisions took responsibility. Myself, having a chronic back issues, needed medical treatments to address my injuries resulting from the accident. However, the cost of these treatments exceeded the coverage provided by by uninsured motor policy. At least that is what I thought. Turns out the medical facility was charging me nearly four times what should have been charged. Mr. Hatten was able to negotiate the initial cost down to what is considered fair. I was then able to receive the treatment needed to begin my road to recovery. Without Mr. Russell Hatten's help I fear that I would have been left unable to pay for the costs of my treatments. I cannot thank the Chalat Hatten & Banker firm enough. I was truly someone in great need and they were there to provide that help. I would highly recommend Chalat Hatten & Banker, PC to anyone who is in need of legal advice.

I was shattered after a terrible snowboarding accident in which I got hit by a beginner snowboarder. This snowboarder smashed my foot, dislocated it, tore all the ligaments, broke it in several spots and shattered my cartilage. I was devastated after realizing my health insurance was a scam and my foot required several surgeries, many months of physical therapy, and the loss of my ability to continue my work in the same way, if at all. My life flashed before my eyes wondering how I would ever be successful again while the bills piled up and my foot, walking ability and driving ability was completely hindered and lost. My lawyer Russell went above and beyond to insure that I not only would have my massive medical bills paid for, but that I would also have compensation for my pain and suffering, lost wages and extra money to help with my life change. He was very personable and communicated with me about what to expect, the time line and fought for what I deserved. Russell was able to get me the full amount that was possible but without the pain and struggle of a trial and he got it for me in a timely manner. This timely manner was a big deal for me as I maxed out all my credit cards and had no wages coming in due to the accident. He sent faxes to my outstanding bills and stayed on top of things like contacting my lien companies and insurance companies to keep the ball rolling so my case would not be held up. He made sure to communicate with me so I knew what was going on and was available for consultation when necessary so I did not feel alone and scared. A life changing accident like mine was one of the worst things that could happen to me and my foot will never be the same. This tragic accident was a terrible storm and very hard to get through and my life and health is forever changed. Working with Russell however brought a rainbow after the storm and a brighter future than I ever thought I would find from such a tragic accident.

I contacted Russell Hatten of Chalat Banker & Hatten regarding a snowboarder running into my back. Mr. Hatten immediately sent me information on legal recourse and a suit was instituted within a week. Throughout the process, Mr. Hatten was always available to answer questions and follow up on my medical expenses, lessening stress on me. I had complete confidence in Mr. Hatten's process throughout the suit and was very satisfied with the outcome.

My wife and I were skiing in Vail, CO this past January. She was hit from behind by a snowboarder. She suffered three broken bones (a collar bone and two ribs). Two days later I ran into a fellow skier who had stopped by on the slope to help us. He mentioned that he had a similar but more severe accident and was served well by Chalat Law for the ensuing litigation. He strongly urged us to call. I called next day and Mr. Hatten returned my call right away. We met in a coffee shop. Mr Hatten was very friendly and personal. He explained that Colorado has laws that govern skiers' rights and responsibilities. He walked us through likely scenarios if we intended to seek compensations. For a person who have never involved in a court case, Mr Hatten's approach was very assuring and has alleviated our anxieties. We discussed the boundaries of our potential actions (settlement is referred and compensations should be fair for both parties, etc.). Thereafter, he uses timely emails, phone calls, text messages to communicate and guide us through the process. It was very transparent and we feel we are always in the driver's seat. After about five months, he negotiated a settlement with the other party and spared us all courts actions. A very desirable outcome. I strongly recommend Mr Hatten and his law firm, Chalat Law to anyone needing legal presentation in personal injury cases.

Russell Hatten guided me through the difficult process of dealing with insurance companies, doctors, and witnesses to my accident. Mr. Hatten is a skier himself and understands the code of responsibility as well as how things happen on the mountain. He thoroughly explained the lawsuit process, got my out of pocket medical expenses paid quickly, was sympathetic to my pain, and even worked on Saturdays to get to a reasonable settlement. At no time was I concerned about anything. Although we ended up settling (which eliminated a great deal of stress and wasted time) I know that he would have been equally effective had we gone to trial. I highly recommend Mr. Hatten.

Russell was there by my side through the whole process. He was extremely knowledgeable and professional, he gave astute and sound advice, provided comfort when the going was tough, he always replied to questions and concerns. I felt in safe hands and above all I felt that he really cared - I am so very grateful for the kindness, help support and advice.

Russell Hatten is a great attorney! I was seriously injured in a rear end collision while I was bent down. Even though all my friends told me to handle the case myself (save attorney fees), I just was not up to the task. I am very glad that I didn’t! Not only did he provide me with his cell phone number and met with my husband and I where it was convenient for us, but he also met with my doctor! Since the vehicle we were in looked like a basic fender bender, the insurance company, for the at fault driver, did not believe that I could have sustained injuries serious enough to require surgery and large medical bills; they initially offered to settle the case for $27k. However, thanks to Russell’s thoroughness and knowledge, he was able to provide the insurance company with enough documentation where they agreed to settle for policy limits without any threat of a lawsuit. I would never have been able to get much more than their initial offer had I tried to handle the case myself. Every step of the way Russell kept me informed via email, text, and phone calls. I highly recommend him and have recommended him to close friends of mine, who are also extremely pleased with his services.

My experiences with this law firm and in particular, Russell R. Hatten was without a doubt first class. I cannot fault them for anything. Everything was handled timely and professionally. I am exceedingly happy to recommend this firm to any individual in need of such services

He was very thorough and easy to contact. I live in Texas, but got injured skiing in Colorado. We handled the whole case over the phone and via email fairly painlessly. I would definitely recommend him to anybody looking for a ski injury attorney in Colorado.

Mr. Hatten was very helpful and extremely knowledgeable in his field. He was always kind and respectful and very patient and explained things thoroughly.
