Horrible Attorney very rude. David Minyard is nice when you first meet him, because he wants your money to retain him. Don't waste your money or time. Look at all his reviews. You tell him what you want and he doesn't do anything lazy attorney, no communication with his client. David Minyard has been an attorney for over 20 years pretty close to retirement. He is not trying to make a good name for himself anymore. When you are going through your divorce. It's already hard and stressful. Then to have to look for another attorney once you retain him. His customer service is awful. I came to a point that my kids are more important then for me to settle with David Minyard. I had to find another attorney. Remember attorney works for you. You want the best attorney go see Michael Weatherly in Visalia.

horrible lawyer. does not know his job. dishonest ,deplorable and pathetic. shouldn't be a lawyer. would not recommend. stay away

Paid for consultation, consisted of him requesting i printed and provided all initial paperwork next time paid for another consultation and brought prints of everything filed, he said he would review it and contact me....2 days before hearing i called to make sure he had a plan, was told to have consultation, paid a third time and asked what to do, how do we proceed to get ideally 50/50 joint custody? He informed me that he was declining to represent me....days before vital hearing, without time to seek other counsel...he SERIOUSLY wouldn't even give any hint to why, literally Said " hes not legally required to share why he declined" ....not a hint or a warning, nothing .i tried to file a statement with the court myself, categorically refuting the absured string of purely fictional, condemning and wholly unfounded demonization with documented and logical evidence as well as written letters of reference/testimony of all of our closest friend's and neighbors l.......i don't think the judge even looked at it, nor did the "impartial mediation" which felt like being interrogated by bad cop and same bad cop. To whom the judge just rubberstamped their ",suggestions" and deemed them orders.....made me pay him 3 times, left me thinking i had representation until i paid to doublecheck and learn i didn't, and was rude about telling me why he didnt HAVE to tell me why. Didnt even allude to it . And frankly was kinda a turd by acting annoyed that i was confused and requested clarification. Things like, why not represent? Why choose not to explain? Why not let me know in advance? Why took my money with zero attempt to contribute? What should i do myself to at least try......not a shred of advice, and in my opinion completely bereft of integrity.

Mr. Minyard represented me and was not informative to the other party. No negotiating or reasoning. Just trying to make a living, no passion. Demeaning and agressive for no reason but to attack.

I was hesitant to retain an attorney thinking I could use Self Help resources. Months of frustration and roadblocks were cleared with about 10-15 min in front of the judge with David by my side. Believe this: He WILL fight for you backed with knowledge and confidence. Save yourself time and heartaches. Highly recommend David to those in need!
