Our Clients Hold Us in the Highest Regard "We Found Great Emotional Support and Even Hope"
Ingrid Pimentel
2020
We were referred to Yonker|Hyde|Macfarlane because of medical malpractice that ended up taking the life of our child. Although there is nothing that can bring our son back, we found great emotional support and even hope at such a fragile time while working with them. We met with Mckay Corbett at first and he attentively listened for hours then John Macfarlane took over the case. He is a compassionate lawyer, who genuinely wanted to help bring justice and peace to us. He has good communication skills, with the ability to listen and respect our desires while still giving us the needed advice. He's also full of good judgment and managed to, with his many skills and perseverance, get us a fair and good settlement that gave us the sense of closure we were looking for...

Younker Hyde Macfarlane worked with me on an auto settlement after my husband was killed in an accident. I was left as a single mother with four year old twin girls and a baby boy. I cannot say enough about the work my attorney, John Macfarlane, and the other staff at Younker Hyde Macfarlane did on my behalf to achieve an incredible result for me and my kids. John Macfarlane proved to be a skilled negotiator and was adept at resolving all of the issues involved with my case. Furthermore, it made all the difference that I was treated with total kindness, compassion and generosity by everyone I dealt with at Younker Hyde Macfarlane. Highly recommended.
