I never have to worry if she’s got my families best interest in mind!

I am on my second service with Summer. I adopted my son through an intervention in November of 2019 and have just started the process for baby sister! I am honored to have summer be a part of our case. I never have to worry if she’s fighting for our best interest. Choosing summer to represent you an...d your family is the best decision you could make, she will quickly become like family! I could say enough good things about Summer Boyd!

Absolutely Awesome!

Summer went above and beyond to help me recover years of unpaid child support and she completely exceeded my expectations in the process. Summer is an excellent attorney, who is passionate about what she does and truly cares about her clients. I am thankful to have met such an awesome individual and ...would highly recommend Summer to anyone in need of her services.

Posted by George | April 10, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Amazing

She is Amazing at what she does. I hired her in the middle of a dirty custody battle. My original attorney was terrible. When she took over she has been fighting as hard as she can to fix all of the mistakes from the 1st attorney. I recommend her to everyone even if you have no hope. She worked mira...cles on my case. The only thing I wish I would have done is to hire her from the beginning.

Posted by Nick | January 18, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Best lawyer ever!!!!

Summer Boyd helped me with my divorce case. She fought hard for me and made sure her fees were something I could afford. She was always available when I needed her. I would recommend her to anyone needing a divorce attorney.
