This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Very dissatisfied

Rita Boyd was extremely rude and lacked the basic knowledge of an attorney as I had to quote the family code section 8 to her. Would not recommend.

Help Me Contact Rita Boyd for Refund of $5000

Please Help! If anyone has information on how to contact Rita Boyd currently please contact me at 805-744-5467. She charged my credit card $5000 in January of 2025. She then stated she didn’t have enough information on the other party to file my case by the time she said she would. I advised he...r during the consult I didn’t have the information on the other party. At that point she should have advised that she could not proceed. Instead she billed me $5000 and told me the case would be ready to file the next day. She had not provided responses for the return of my money via last known e-mail address and phone number. Please reach out to me at 805-744-5467.

Best Value

Rita is a consistent and thorough attorney with many years of practical experience. She is fair and I considered her services to be of great value. She doesn't waste time or charge $300 to read an email.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
