Contacted the Boyd Law group some 2 years ago for some guidance in handling a negative employee situation. As a small manufacturer we needed some straightforward direction, from a firm who could relate to us to get us through a difficult process. Worked well with them as part of our team. Won!

As a professional who has known Patrick since he began, I cannot say enough about the outstanding firm that he has built with his BLG colleagues. Patrick and Andrea conducted themselves with the utmost professionalism and were always honest with their approach and the response from opposing counsel. I trust their extensive legal knowledge and principled character with everything. The BLG will always have my highest recommendation.

Working with The Boyd Law Group was the best decision I could have made. From my initial inquiry to the resolution of my matter, Patrick and his team were cordial, professional, and very responsive. I felt both seen and heard, and I never questioned whether they were working to get me the best outcome possible. Patrick is both knowledgeable and compassionate. He reminded me of my worth as both a human being and a professional during those moments of self-doubt - when I needed encouragement the most. I hope to never need legal representation for an employment matter again, but if I should, The Boyd Law Group will be the first call I make.

Worked with Patrick on my non-compete and the associated implications. He is extremely knowledgeable in this area. He had a vast resoirvoir of experience to reference throughout our meetings. He provided great insight around all the possible scenarios. Gave me the information I needed to make an informed decision. I would highly recommend.

I highly recommend Boyd Law Group and would gladly refer others with employment law needs. Patrick was very attentive, sought to understand my situaton and what was normal and customary in my industry. He and his team worked to resolve a very difficult discrimination case that resulted in a positive outcome for me and my family. He was methodical, strategic, and transparent, clearly explaining the legal precedents and rationale at every step. I felt completley confident in his expertise and experience. In addition, his empathy and sage counsel provided me and my family with comfort during an extremely stressful situation.

I had an excellent experience working with Patrick Boyd and their team on a labor law matter. They were responsible, pragmatic, and very commercial in their approach, which led to a successful outcome and additional compensation. The process was clear and easy from start to finish, with no unnecessary complexity. Communication was efficient, expectations were well managed, and I always felt the case was handled seriously and thoughtfully. I would strongly recommend their services to anyone and would hire them again.

I reached out to The Boyd Law Group after experiencing discriminatory comments from my new boss/ceo following the departure of my previous boss. At the time I was fearful of losing my job while navigating major life/family changes. The Boyd Law Group eased my peace of mind knowing they were in my corner should anything escalates while I looked for a new job as I no longer wanted to stay at my job. They were able to help me to get the behavior to stop while helping me plan my next steps. They clearly laid out my options throughout every step and never pressured me to decide. You can tell the team here cares not just about your case but about you as a person. I would definitely recommend them. And while I hope to never need an employment lawyer to help me through a hardship again, should I ever need one in the future, they will be my first cal.

I enjoyed working with Patrick and his team, they were compassionate, knowledgeable, responsive and the help resolve labor / compensation dispute to my satisfaction. As with all disputes and the negotiations that follow there is a give and take and he understood what was important to me and we were able to attain a favorable outcome.
