Kevin Byrd has been my attorney for the last 10 years. He has represented me in divorce, claims actions, and financial matters. The divorce lasted 6 years and went to the Court of Appeals where Kevin won my case with his knowledge and understanding of the law. You would be hard pressed to find a better attorney then Kevin Byrd. He is reliable and trustworthy and you can could on him to do the best job possible. He understands the law!

This attorney and his staff were wonderful. He was clear about what I was getting myself into and what I had to do to get a bankruptcy discharge. He achieved the release of all my bills through the bankruptcy process. He and his staff were professional, kind and considerate of my situation throughout. His legal assistant patiently walked me through all of the paperwork that is required for bankruptcy and really helped me out.

Takes your retainer fee, then you never hear from him again. Called and left numerous messages, no reponse,always too busy even before going to court with your case. Staff seems nice at first, then start backing up and lying to you. Do not trust with your case, has no direction but to wait and see what happens. Then what happens is not very good in your interest, he drops you as a client. What a jerk.

My mother filed for chapter 7 with Brown & Seelye. I went with her to meet with Brown & Seelye due to the fact that my name was attached to some of her debt ie: Mortgages and lines of credit. However, I lived in the home not my mother and I had paid every payment on time and of course wanted to keep the home and make sure that the reaffirmation was done on the home loans and the specific credit lines were not included in this bankruptcy (this was whole purpose of me attending the meeting prior to my mother filing for bankruptcy). Although, the filing with the court stated that the reaffirmations were to be done and line of credit were not to be included the reaffirmation was never sent or completed with the banks and are showing as a negative remark on my credit. I am someone who has always had good credit never late on any payments EVER. I called their office several times and was told that it is the banks responsibility to send the reaffirmation paper work and not theirs and that no court is going to reopen the case to just do a reaffirmation and of course the bank is saying it was their responsibility. I do remember my mother paying Brown & Seelye for the services how is this now in my lap? Considering I, nor my mother are not bankruptcy attorneys how would we know to catch something that bankruptcy attorneys are fully aware of. Seems to me they are going through the motions and not the details. I have been very negatively affected and disappointed by the business they conducted and will filing a complaint with the bar.

I was pleased with this attorney's handling of my case, which involved substantial assets and some fairly complicated parenting issues. He assisted me in achieving the result I wanted and was far less expensive than I thought the case would be. I recommend Mr. Byrd. He has a pleasant staff and they always returned my phone calls.
