Posted by Jody | December 13, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Thank you Mr. Byrd

I had a free consultation with Mr. Byrd with regards to a terrible time in my life, a divorce. He was very pleasant and straight forward with all the information that I needed to start the process. I hired Mr. Byrd and he got to work, keeping me up to date with the progress as well as helping me to... understand where to get all the documentation and records I would need to have a successful result. My now ex-wife was trying to be very difficult but with Mr. Byrd's experience in these matters he helped guide me with solid information to make decisions. Mr. Byrd really did a good job for me , we had a very good end result. If I ever need a lawyer in the future there would be no hesitation in hiring Johnnie Byrd again. I would highly recommend Mr. Byrd to any one who is in need of help in legal matters.

Estate Planning

My late husband had previously retained Johnnie Byrd with an alimony issue and he represented him well in that matter. So recently I retained him to assist me with updating my estate planning documents including designation of health care surrogate, power of attorney, living will, trust, and HIPAA ...releases. These documents were created and provided to me in a timely manner and for a reasonable fee. He also followed up after the finalization of the documentation with reminders of things to review or do as a result of the creation of the trust. I appreciated his professionalism and would not hesitate to retain his services again in the future.

Review of experience working with Johnnie Byrd Jr.

My wife and I have worked with Johnnie Byrd for many years. He has provided us with competent legal representation in the fields of both Family and Business Law. The Business contracts he helped us negotiate were complex and required interfacing with many other professionals over significant time... frames. His lengthy experience with many Floridians and Florida Corporations, as well as his steady, unflappable, personality were as important as his knowledge of the law in bringing these matters to a successful conclusion. Mr Byrd's thoroughness and attention to detail were always evident. He was always prompt and courteous and made sure that we were kept up-to-date as events unfolded. In addition, Mr Byrd never tried to over-sell us on the need for legal help and never sought to represent us when matters fell outside of his fields of expertise. We would certainly recommend that you consider him when seeking legal representation. Bob

Straight and to the point

Johnnie was a great help in the custody case between my wife and I. He listened to my issues, he offered suggestions and then we together agreed on how to proceed. These are very emotional times and having a knowledgeable lawyer is a must. I would hire Johnnie again if needed.
