This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Beware

Would not recommend Mr. Boyd to handle any case. Stay as far away as you can for your own sanity.

Compassionate, Knowledgeable and Amazing Advocate

I had been in an auto accident and the insurance company was trying to settle with me for $3,000. I had a friend refer me to Boyd Buckingham and Boyd was a joy and to work with. He listened to my story and reassured me that he would take care of me and help settle my case as quickly as possible. H...e did just that, the insurance company quit harassing me and only spoke to Boyd. Boyd was able to settle my case and in return was able to get me more money then I could ever have expected. He is a very good lawyer that knows the in's and out's of auto personal injury claims.

Great Experience

Boyd was direct and concise with me on all facets of my divorce. He kept me informed, supported me through a difficult experience, and helped me to maintain a goal that helped me to keep my children and integrity during a very difficult time.

Best lawyer for auto accidents!

Boyd handled my accident claim with professionalism and integrity resulting in a settlement that was more than fair. He and his staff are respected by insurance companies as he's taken them to court and won many times.
