Ryan L. Haaland, Attorney at Law

Ryan Haaland has helped me with vehicle accident litigation and consumer fraud situations. From my dealings with him, I can assure that he’s thoughtful, communicative, knowledgeable, persistent and fair. Thoughtfulness displays an active mind that is constantly probing and putting ideas together, searching alternatives, processing solutions, seeking answers. For example, he would give me a call: “Let’s try this,” “Don’t move too fast here,” “See how they respond to….” “What do you think of...?” Communicativeness is established through identity and common ground. Mr. Haaland got to know me, and welcomed personal disclosures that showed his understanding of my situations and how they related to his experiences. This openness established a free-flow to our visits, which resulted in a clear understanding of my expectations and concerns. Me: “It’s hard to put a price on a broken collar bone.” He: “Sure, for someone else, it might not be central to their life style, but in your case, as a pilot, the value is much greater.” Knowledge goes beyond knowing the law, to include understanding the people and situations that determine decisions about the law. He: “The law is vague here, but given what’s happened so far, let’s give this a try.” Persistent and Fair. He carried my causes as far as was reasonable. and together we decided when the possible benefits weren’t worth the additional cost. This balance of cost/benefit was important to me, because it showed his sense of fairness to all parties. “We’ve done all we can; let’s not drag this out.” My experiences with Mr. Ryan Haaland have been positive and rewarding: he thinks things through; he connects well; he knows his stuff; he’ll follow through with balanced fairness. No sane (non-lawyer) person looks forward to litigation, but if I do need to go that route, I’d feel confident, comfortable, and positive with Ryan Haaland. Paul Kaufmann, PhD Ames, Iowa
