This could happen to you

As I made a huge mistake, marrying into a very tumultuous relationship. I made a second mistake hiring attorney Leigh Reynolds Byers. My now ex-wife had accused me of physically assaulting her during our relationship and had me arrested. She actually did assault me and was also arrested which... is very tough to do in the state of Alabama My mission behind hiring Leigh was simple. I did not want to get arrested again during the separating of property. She talked a very tough talk during the interview, however, when she went up a male counterpart attorney that my ex-wife hired, she seemed to get very timid very quickly. To say the least, she failed miserably keeping me out of jail as I was arrested a second time, again, so was my ex where she again did physically striking me. I followed my attorneys direction and advice to the letter and even videotaped the entire encounter as well. The insult to the injury was an email that Leigh sent to my ex’s attorney stating “well we did the best we could“ while I was sitting in a jail cell rather than trying to find a way to get me out! If this was her best, I highly recommend Finding somebody else Who has a better “Best“ I have read all of the other reviews of this law firm, which is why I pick this law firm. They seem to be very happy. If you choose this firm, I truly hope you are as happy as they are because the alternative might be a night in a jail cell This was 2021. Fast forward to February 2026, when I noticed my mug shot on Google, I contacted her again to see what could be done as my case was totally dismissed after the videotape was seen by not only prosecutors, but by the judge. She advised me that I had no recourse to take my photo down from Google, and that my file was closed and she was no longer going to respond to me. I would say you get what you paid for, but I paid full price. I wish you much better

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Leigh is an outstanding member of our Bar. I have known her since we were both in law school. Her legal skill and judgment are second to none. I had the opportunity to work with her on a case recently (where we worked on the same side). It was a pleasure to work with her on the same side for a change, as she is a very tough opponent."

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I have known Leigh for several years and I wholeheartedly endorse her in the areas of Family law, divorce, alimony, adoption and prenuptial agreements. Almost every lawyer out there will claim to handle divorce cases, but the truth is, you need someone who does this day in and day out if you want the best you can get, and Leigh and her firm limit their practice to these areas only. If I needed help in these areas, I would call her firm first."
