A little over eight years ago,
my wife went to a doctor's appointment.
00:00:10.844 --> 00:00:13.943
She was prescribed some medication
that she really shouldn't have been,
00:00:14.071 --> 00:00:19.000
ultimately,
led to her passing away shortly after.
00:00:19.457 --> 00:00:20.900
After my wife passed away,
00:00:21.529 --> 00:00:25.313
my mother-in-law
knew an attorney in Salt Lake.
00:00:25.314 --> 00:00:27.570
Things seemed really off
about the whole situation,
00:00:27.571 --> 00:00:30.643
so she recommended
that I go talk to this attorney
00:00:30.644 --> 00:00:33.343
who ultimately referred me
to Younker Hyde McFarlane.
00:00:33.344 --> 00:00:35.571
Ashton seemed like
he was a really good listener.
00:00:35.572 --> 00:00:38.371
Stayed very neutral
every time I talked to him,
00:00:38.714 --> 00:00:40.171
gathering information.
00:00:41.671 --> 00:00:42.957
From my experience
00:00:43.129 --> 00:00:46.200
and really looking at it
through a balanced lens,
00:00:46.557 --> 00:00:49.257
I was told upfront,
this is going to be a long process.
00:00:49.400 --> 00:00:51.743
It's going to take a lot of work.
Things move slow.
00:00:52.029 --> 00:00:55.686
Every time I reached out
with a phone call, or text, or an email,
00:00:56.286 --> 00:00:59.843
they replied to me right away
and just kept me in a loop.
00:00:59.943 --> 00:01:02.014
I wanted some more clarity
on the whole process.
00:01:02.015 --> 00:01:04.686
I wanted some answers
from my children, mostly.
00:01:05.071 --> 00:01:11.200
I felt a sense of relief
that my two children are going to…
00:01:11.201 --> 00:01:12.586
They're missing their mom.
00:01:12.587 --> 00:01:14.843
It's the most important person,
I think, in their whole life.
00:01:14.844 --> 00:01:16.843
I think giving them some more answers,
00:01:16.844 --> 00:01:22.442
having some clarity,
and also some type of compensation,
00:01:22.443 --> 00:01:24.640
we were able to set up
a couple of trusts for the kids,
00:01:24.641 --> 00:01:27.386
and that's going to help them hopefully
navigate some challenging times
00:01:27.387 --> 00:01:30.428
that they're going to have,
I'm sure, just in life in general.
00:01:30.429 --> 00:01:32.271
I think they did a great job.
00:01:32.487 --> 00:01:35.029
I felt more confident
every time I would talk to Ashton,
00:01:35.030 --> 00:01:36.499
as he would dive into the details
00:01:36.500 --> 00:01:40.400
and explain his insight
or perspective about the whole thing,
00:01:40.401 --> 00:01:43.257
and you feel like
somebody's fighting for you.
