Highly Recommend Jennifer Byrom and Staff

To say that Jennifer Byrom and her staff are highly qualified and compassionate is an understatement. I have waited a year to write this review so that I could be objective and say that our entire dealing was over with before giving our experience and opinion. We presented Ms. Byrom and her staff wi...th an impossible task; a private adoption with 7 days notice before birth and no homestudy completed and no prior documented attempts at adoption. She was pragmatic but positive and laid out the path for us; at every step she and her staff were there for us; even answering her cell phone after hours to comfort us and assure that we were doing everything correct. She and her amazing Paralegal, Penny Miller came to the hospital to assist with paperwork and complete the process on a Sunday Afternoon. Let's face it; attorneys are expensive; they provide a function and they should be compensated for it. However at no time did we feel like we were being swindled or taken to the cleaners. Bills were always clear and it was obvious that they were simply being compensated for the work they completed. They worked with us on our payments and we were able to finalize our son's adoption a little bit more than three months after he was born. We made it a point to get pictures with all the ladies at the office, because they had become more than just people to us; they were family and part of our son's story we wanted him to know about all the sweet people who helped him become ours one day! If you are in need of an attorney who knows the adoption process in and out and who will get things done and quickly, Jennifer Byrom is the one to use!! If

Got screwed!

I would never use her again. Long story short... I went to her for a divorce. Paralegal was great, did all the work. The paralegal and I had put together a good game plan for the mediation. Jennifer Byrom came to the mediation without the paralegal and the game plan went out the window. I walked ...out with my head spinning and a non-modifiable alimony which gives my ex more than 70% of my pay (after taxes), and much more. Right afterwards, my ex got a job, she cohabitates with her fiancé, and she gets my alimony. I cant do anything about it because of the "non-modifiable' statement. Yes, I blame myself for not doing better. But, I had never been through a divorce, I didn't know all the options, etc, so I essentially put all my faith and trust in an 'expert", someone who has been doing this for many many years. In the end, I got screwed, but she sure got paid!

"A shout out to Jennifer Byrom and her staff"

We hired Jennifer Byrom to work with us on our Father's Estate, and she did a wonderful job. She and her staff are very informative and professional. She is a lawyer with a beautiful personality and she cares for her clients. Mrs. Byrom and her staff directed us through and during the entire proce...ss, which was completed last week. We will always contact Mrs. Byrom office for any legal matters or question we may have for direction. I have never met a lawyer so willing to assist. One of our family members is in the process of requesting her services again. We will always recommend Mrs. Byrom and her staff for legal advice to anyone seeking a lawyer.

Oustanding, caring, experienced advocate who can help you achieve your goals

We recently retained Ms. Jennifer Byrom to help us navigate through a challenging divorce situation and were extremely pleased that we reached a successful outcome. Ms. Byrom has our highest recommendation. Unfortunately, the standard divorce processes are complex, lengthy and often at the mercy of ...the opposing counsel's strategy and actions and local court constraints. We were so lucky to have Ms. Byrom's extensive experience and local knowledge to successfully identify and clearly explain the necessary steps. By closely following her advice, we achieved our objectives in a relatively short period of time. Ms. Byrom is an empathetic, excellent listener who will work to fully understand your concerns and goals. She is direct and clear in her explanations of options and possible approaches. Being able to tie those two skills together is what elevates her above other attorneys, especially during the emotionally charged process of divorce. Plus, she clearly knows and is highly respected by her peers and other key legal contacts. We were also impressed that she recognized the legal expenses were a concern for us and to mitigate costs we often worked with her outstanding paralegal Penny Miller. Jennifer was always available if we needed her but It made us very confident that Ms. Byrom was truly working for our benefit by ensuring that we weren't incurring unnecessary fees. Again, we unreservedly recommend Jennifer Byrom as a talented family law practitioner. It is encouraging to know that there are still trustworthy attorneys out there and we feel lucky we were able to have her be our advocate and guide to success.
