Divorce Successful

Andy was very diligent throughout the 18 month process to which I feel we were very successful in getting what I wanted accomplished. Although I still have to pay my spouse through the nose, it was certainly not as much as I had anticipated, and was slightly better than I expected from the law persp...ective. There were many times that things were moving slow and I was worried with what Andy was doing on my behalf especially with some of the things that he was telling me. However, now I realize that is the process and he was just being certain that I knew the worst case scenario possibilities and what a judge could do. Andy is very good at his job and very understanding and compassionate with his clients' position in a very emotional situation.

Andrew Boyer is an asset to the legal community.

I had some let's say issues, with very a very dishonest person that I was dealing with involving an estate distribution of which I was a benefactor. I chose Andy to represent my best interests in making sure this vile person was being fair and honest. Andy very patiently listened to all of my complai...nts and answered all of my legal questions and at times even helped to calm me down a notch or two. In the end, Andy did fulfill his agreement with me, helping me to finally get what was rightfully mine and I believe kept this person on her toes just knowing that I had an attorney of my own watching from a legal standpoint. Andy did a great job for me, ALWAYS keeping me in the loop, letting me know what was going on. I never had to chase him down, he was always available to speak with me either in person or on the telephone or via email. I went to his office looking for an attorney and when all was said and done, I left there gaining a new friend. I highly recommend his legal services.

Recommendation of Andrew Boyer for legal counsel

Andy made me feel secure during such an unfortunate circumstance. He was very clear about the entire divorce process, his fees, and my options. He kept me well-informed throughout the entire process. He genuinely seemed to care about me, and what was best for me. Andy treated me well, was very profes...sional, and always kept me informed.

Pleasure to work with!

Andy was always there when I needed him. Never had any worries about being charged extra for any questions that I had, he was always open and available with answers via email. Andy was very personable and treated me as a friend, which I appreciated.

Trustworthy

We had a difficult case to deal with, and wasnt sure how to go about it, Andrew made us alot more comfortable to go forward, and kept us informed. He let us know our best options, always showed up when we needed him to. He understood the stress levels we were feeling, and understood what family means... to us, which made us trust him even more. I would defineitely would recommend him to anyone that is in need to a wise, and kind lawyer to help with your child custody problems. This was a 3 year battle that he was able to finish in less then 3 months.

"No one ever wants to go through a divorce. A divorce is more then merely legal theories and arguments. There is a relational aspect that cannot be ignored if you truly want the best result. Having the right attorney makes a difference. What set's Andy apart from other competent attorneys is that he genuinely cares for his clients. Andrew Boyer is an attorney that you can trust and I strongly recommend him."
