Excellent service

Steven was very understanding and quick to answer any questions or concerns.

Posted by Juliana | September 29, 2021 | Hired Attorney | Estate Planning

Complexity isn’t a problem!

After a friend died, I was handed her “hand written” will. Unfamiliar with estates or legal matter of such, I turned to a family attorney and colleague of my deceased father-in-law who had also been an attorney. After reading the will, I was told to “drop it like a hot potato and run”. My friend ...had no heirs, no family to turn to and had saved all her life with hopes to be memorialized by posthumous philanthropic deeds. So I couldn’t let her down. H. Steven Byers reviewed the will and told me he had no problems working with it and has since provided ongoing counsel for all matters in a complex estate. He has been patient and concerned in everything have brought to him. He has advocated for me and for the deceased in all matters concerning her estate. It’s been almost 3 years. In this time, he has now assisted me in legal matters for estate planning for my own family members. I do not hesitate to recommend him to anyone who need legal services, no matter how complicated or intimidating it might be.

He made it so simple

What could have and should have been a very messy situation, Mr Byers brought peace and clarity above and beyond what I could have hoped for. His quick response to every question I had, including calling me back himself on a holiday weekend when I first called his office, made the entire process be...arable and manageable. I am beyond grateful!

Divorce

Steven is an experienced, knowledgable and compassionate advocate. Steven handled my divorce case promptly and professionally. He returned my calls and emails quickly and guided me through the divorce process very well. I would highly recommend Steven as your advocate.

Divorce matter

I hired Steve for a divorce matter. he was great at explaining the details of the the way the court stuff worked. He took his time and answered all my questions and really helped take the edge off a bad situation. He really knows about divorce law. He even helped me with rights I didn't even know I h...ad. He was a great help at a bad time in my life. thanks Steve.
