A Diamond in the Rough and a man of the highest moral calibre.

I unequivocally endorse Mr. Byers. A true professional who one can tell would be a lawyer even if it paid next to nothing. So, if you are lucky enough to have a man of passion who will fight tooth and nail because it is a cause he believes in you will be well rewarded. Brilliant. I gained some faith ...which was never there in the first place regarding Southern California attorneys....

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.
