Not only did Jon Boyd answer all of my questions, he took the time to listen. I greatly appreciated Jon's help, advice and kindness. However, overall it was Jon's extensive knowledge of Texas Custody Law that impressed me the most.

Jon Boyd was the last of four family law attorneys whom I interviewed for divorce and custody representation during my separation. Upon meeting Jon, you are made to feel as though you are not alone in your situation. (Facing a certain nasty divorce with 2 young children, I could not make a mistake on whom I selected to represent me and help my children.) Two hours before my first meeting with Jon, I was served Divorce papers at my work. You can imagine the state of mind that I was in when I arrived at his office. What stood out the most to me on my initial consultation is how much time Jon took to just listen to my issues and concerns. He genuinely cared about what I had to say and didn't attempt to over talk me or inject his opinion. At this point in my search, I had already met with three other highly regarded and recommended Divorce/Custody Attorneys. Jon's ability to listen and understand my situation and then offer his advice on how we should proceed were the main reasons I hired Jon as my attorney. That was the best decision I made, for myself and my children. Jon helped develop action plans as well as a strategy for how we could move forward. I rated Jon as excellent on the review for all 4 subjects for good reason. He truly excelled in every facet of my divorce and custody battles. His knowledge and experience became very evident as we continued down the path of temporary orders, deposition, etc. It also was apparent Jon is highly regarded in the Court system. Do not make the mistake of retaining an attorney who does not have years of experience in North Texas. Jon's strong relationship with the different Judges, clerks and real courtroom experience in and knowledge of other opposing attorneys was invaluable to me and my children. Jon earned this "Excellent" rating by going above and beyond what I could have expected from him. When I was at my lowest point in the divorce/custody process, Jon was the one person who kept reminding me WHY we are going through all of this stress-anger-emotional roller coaster. It was so that a good Dad such as I can continue to be involved with his children on a daily basis and provide for their health, safety and well being. We fought long and hard and won the best possible outcome for my children and myself. You may find other attorneys who charge less $ per hour, but let me assure you that Jon is worth every dollar I spent with him and on our case, and his accounting of time spent was precise and accurate. Jon, thank you! for everything that you have done for me and my family. I am glad you are out there continuing to fight for Dads!!!

Jon was one of four Attorney's that I interviewed during my seperation stage with my ex wife. I need to add that Jon was the last Attorney that I had to meet with.

I've heard good things about this attorney for Doug over at Father's for Equal Rights in Dallas where Jon has been volunteering for years. I was very pleased to find out all the good I heard was true. I called Jon's office on Doug's recommendation and got through on the first ring. I was totally surprised how accessible Jon is with his clients. I explain the particular issue with my custody case and Jon immediately gave me advice over the phone and recommended I come visit him. He was extreme cordial and not at all pushy. In short, I would recommend Jon to anybody in the Dallas Fort Worth area that is going through a divorce or custody issue. I cannot say enough good things about Jon, the work he does, or the hours he puts in at Father's for Equal Rights. One happy Full Custody Dad!

Extremely disappointed in this attorney. The case attention given was poor and the performance during my case was even worse. While Mr. Boyd comes across as a very knowledgeable attorney, that is not what I experienced when I was represented by him.

We’ll never be able to thank you enough for representing and winning this case for us. From the first time my wife went to your office to meet you, she told me “he’s the one” and as usual, she was right. Your confidence, professionalism, knowledge and experience made the decision so much easier. We appreciate you taking the time to go through this painful process with us and making it bearable. Your knowledge and your assertive attitude gave us the sense of security we needed. Your patience to explain all the legal paperwork that came with our case, and the great advice you gave us so we could handle a difficult situation, are very much appreciated. We couldn’t believe how much you did for us, you drove out of town to represent us, that’s much more than any other attorney would’ve done. What you did for us was completely outstanding, we are so glad we found someone that goes the extra mile to make sure things are fair, especially for a father that was not aware he was a father of an eleven year old. We were in fear that we would lose everything we had worked so hard for, we even considered a divorce to save something, but we were blessed to have found you. We hope we never have to go through any other legal issues, but if we do you’ll be the one we call. We will definitely bring your name up if we ever hear anyone needing legal representation.
