Personal Injury Services

If you were hurt because someone else was careless, you might have a personal injury claim. That includes accidents like:

• Car wrecks

• Slip and falls

• Dog bites

• Motorcycle accidents

• Pedestrian injuries

• Truck collisions

Hayes Law helps you get money for:

• Long-term care

• Damage to your vehicle or property

They’ll handle the phone calls, the paperwork, and all the stress that comes with filing a claim—so you can focus on healing.

DWI and Traffic Offense Defense

A DWI charge can be scary. Even one mistake behind the wheel can lead to serious consequences: fines, losing your license, or even jail.

Hayes Law steps in fast. They look at the facts, investigate the arrest, and find ways to challenge the case. For example, they check:

• Was the traffic stop legal?

• Was the breath test done right?

• Were your rights read to you?

• Did the officer follow proper steps?

They also handle traffic violations, including:

• Speeding tickets

• Reckless driving

• Driving without a license

• Running a red light or stop sign

• Commercial Driver's License (CDL) issues

Many tickets can be reduced or dismissed. Hayes Law can often go to court for you, so you don’t have to miss work or school.

Criminal Defense for Misdemeanors and Felonies

Facing criminal charges? You don’t have to face them alone. Hayes Law defends people charged with:

• Drug possession

• Theft or shoplifting

• Assault or domestic violence

• Probation violations

• Gun or weapon charges

They’ll work to protect your freedom, your record, and your future. Every case is different. That’s why Attorney Hayes takes time to understand your story and build the best defense possible.

Expungement Services

Having a record can make life harder. It can affect your ability to:

• Get a job

• Rent a home

• Go back to school

• Apply for loans

If you qualify, Hayes Law can help clear your record through a legal process called expungement. This can give you a clean slate and peace of mind.

They’ll check your eligibility, file the right documents, and guide you through every step.

Legal Help After a Car Crash

Even a small car accident can cause big problems. You might be dealing with:

• Neck or back pain

• Doctor visits and physical therapy

• Car repairs

• Lost wages from missed work

Hayes Law knows how to deal with insurance companies. They won’t let them offer you less than you deserve. They work on cases involving:

• Distracted drivers

• Drunk drivers

• Speeding

• Rear-end collisions

• T-bone crashes

• Multi-car pileups

They’ll collect evidence, get witness statements, and make sure your rights are protected.

Motorcycle and Bicycle Accidents

Motorcycle and bicycle riders often suffer the worst injuries in a crash. Drivers say, “I didn’t see them,” but that doesn’t make it okay.

Hayes Law fights for injured riders who are dealing with:

• Broken bones

• Road rash

• Concussions

• Long-term pain

They’ll take on the insurance companies and fight to get you the support and care you need to get back on the road or back to life.

Slip and Fall or Property Injuries

Property owners have a duty to keep their spaces safe. When they don’t—and someone gets hurt—they can be held responsible.

Hayes Law handles premises cases, including:

• Slipping on wet floors

• Falling down broken stairs

• Tripping on uneven sidewalks

• Getting hurt due to poor lighting

These cases may seem simple, but they often involve complicated rules. Attorney Hayes knows how to gather the facts and prove negligence.

Dog Bites and Animal Attacks

If you or your child was bitten by a dog, you may have a claim. Medical costs can be high, and emotional trauma can last a long time.

Hayes Law helps dog bite victims by:
