Great Attorney!

I contacted Julie's office for a routine, uncontested matter. The attorney personally met with me and prepared the papers while I waited. MY husband signed the papers and they were filed, we were divorced so fast. Professional, courteous and fast. That's what I wanted, and what I got.

Highly Recommend - She's got your back!

Ms. Byrd handled my divorce for me. She was everything my children and I needed at the time. There were extenuating circumstances in my case which involved abuse of one of my children by my ex's father. She handled the situation delicately and with the utmost professionalism. Her staff was always cou...rteous, friendly, and extremely helpful. I would highly recommend Ms. Byrd and have. If you need someone to have your back she is your woman!

Unprofessional Staff

Julie Byrd was hired 12/16 as my divorce attorney she never return calls. Carol the paralegal is very rude when you call the office for Julie Byrd and she hung up the phone on you. Really do not if Julie is aware or even concern because I paid last you and still do not have the correct paperwork afte...r Carol was notified that it was a error on the divorce decree. This law firm is a joke.

Replied last January 22, 2019

The client called in at a time the attorney was in trial demanding to speak to the attorney. Our office had not heard from this client since April 2017 when she was given the retainer cost for a contested divorce. The paralegal attempted to get more information as to the needs of the client; however, the client would not cooperate with the paralegal in order to be able assist her, instead began to yell and speak to the paralegal in hateful manner. She states the final decree was incorrect; however, there was never a final decree in this case since the required paperwork was never signed, returned to the office, and the filing cost paid. The paralegal employed by Ms. Byrd has a bachelors degree in Paralegal Studies, a Masters in Forensic Psychology, and is a highly valued and respected member of Ms. Byrd's staff and in the legal community. Ms. Byrd is extremely loyal to her clients and to her staff; however, neither she nor her staff will be punching bags for emotionally disturbed individuals calling and mistreating her staff.

Would not recommend.

Unprepared. Disorganized office environment. Agreed to things with opposing counsel that were not discussed with me previously. Distracted and not focused on conversation/ matter during meetings. Got the feeling that she just had way too much going on and my situation suffered because of it. After ...contacting a new attorney, my issue was resolved to my favor within 90 days.

Excellent Attorney! Did a great job for my family.

She went above and beyond what was needed and expected for us to win our case. We will always appreciate her assistance in making us a family!!
