Every day I am thankful I chose Sam Byrd to represent me in my divorce. The peace I have now is worth every cent. The legal process itself is terrible but Sam knew how to navigate all the hurdles. Brittany was very understanding of my situation and flawlessly handled the mountain of paperwork that the legal system creates. I am happy with my experience and would recommend the Law Office of Sam Byrd.

I came to Sam Byrd Law Firm through recommendations from friends looking for representation on a possession charge. Throughout the entire process Kevin Hargis, my attorney, was very communicative with me as well as Brittney who was very kind and understanding of my situation. Kevin got me a deal which I am very fortunate for now I can live freely without worry thanks to Sam Byrd Law Firm.

I'm a divorce attorney in Utah, and Sam and I worked a Utah-Tennessee case together. Sam handled everything, including criminal charges, in Tennessee, while we handled the Utah side of things. Sam was always very good about communicating and coordinating with us and with our client. He did a great job handling the criminal charges, getting our client a very good result. Now, I send all Tennessee matters to Sam.

My granddaughter was having legal issues and needed a lawyer to represent her. We chose Sam Byrd Law Firm through reviews and references, and I'm glad we did because they took the matter into their hands and got the deal that was best. Now that we have experienced this and have had Sam Byrd Law Firm represent us we are very humbled.

Very very RUDE. All I asked was why an uncontested divorce cast $2500+ at their office. And when I said I had call a few other's and it was a little over $800+ and they told me over the phone. Tiffany became unhinged and started ranting at me. I can't believe how unprofessional that was.They wouldn't even tell me over the phone a price and when I can in it was $300 up front to even find out it was going to cost that much. I'm shocked and disappointed. All I did was ask a question. I feel like I was just taken for $300.

After reading some really positive reviews I came to Sam Byrd to help me in a custody matter. I was looking for someone I could trust to help me and my daughter through a very emotional and difficult process. I definitely found that with Sam and Brittany! I can’t express enough gratitude for all they have done working tirelessly on my case & really building a relationship with me. They brought closure and justice to my family and did it with sincere concern for our wellbeing and a level of professionalism that can’t be matched.

Sam and Brittany have helped me through a really nasty divorce. I made the mistake of hiring Cordell & Cordell at first, which led to all sorts of problems. Sam knows the divorce laws really well and helped clean up the mistakes they made, while putting me on the best possible path moving forward. I wish I had known about this law firm at the beginning of my divorce. Highly recommended law firm with great people who will fight for you.

Sam and Brittany were the best ever. they ate truly doing the work of a greater good. I couldn't have asked for a more caring team. I was nervous about this whole situation to begin with but they made sure that I was comfortable with everything they proposed. In the end I got everything taking care with the help of these two godsend people. i would reccomend if you are looking for a lawyer that actually cares about what is best for you amd not just how much money they can get from you contact Sam and Brittany.

Sam did my divorce for me. Between him and Brittany (can't speak enough kind words about her) they made a stressful/hectic process go by seamlessly. The amount of time, concern and genuine care Brittany has is exceptional and Sam made sure I was as ready as I could be and knew the process. Thank you!!

I have been fighting for custody of my daughter for all 10 years of her life and in those many years I have had several different attorney's. None of them have gone above and beyond like Sam Byrd. For example he would even assist me with other legal matters not pertaining to my custody case. He is very punctual and aggressive with my case. He… found evidence that supported my case that I didn't even know existed. Also, he was vastly willing to work with me on the cost as I am not the most financially stable person. In fact all of the people that I have met in the Covert Law Group have been

Sam Byrd represented a close family member in a very difficult family matter. I was with her at every court session and was so impressed by his professionalism and his concern for his client and everyone involved in the case. It was very obvious he had spent a lot of time preparing as he was very well prepared and detailed as he represented her. He is the type of lawyer you want to represent you in legal matters, especially those with matters of the heart.

Sam and his office provided excellent service, demonstrating professionalism and personal attention to all details of my divorce. Sam's attitude to the work he does, helped me to avoid emotional divorce complications and got me through it in a timely manner. If you need a family lawyer look no further than Sam Byrds Law Firm.
