I needed an aggressive and knowledgeable divorce attorney and was recommended to Byron Divins. My case was not an easy one and my spouse was being very combative. Mr. Divins represented me through the entire process and just before we were about to start the trial, we came to a settlement that I was extremely satisfied with. I am convinced that it was only due to the fact that Byron was prepared to go forward with the trial and fight aggressively for my rights, that my spouse finally agreed to settle the case. He was thorough, clearly an expert in the field and was always responsive to any question or concern I had. He is the consummate professional. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone that is involved in a marital or custody dispute without hesitation.

I retained Byron to defend my rights and help me work through my less than amicable divorce. He was professional, compassionate, knowledgeable, and well-regarded in Suffolk by judges and colleagues, alike. Byron helped me reach a fair settlement with my now ex and I moved on with my life! Thanks, Byron!

I had to switch to Byron because my previous attorney was not managing my case the right way, and I had to get a new attorney after 2 years and many attorney refused my case but Byron took me on without hesitation, , I found Byron to be intelligent, compassionate and available to me 24 hours a day he managed my case to perfection. he even has a great sense of humor, and at times when I was feeling depressed, he made me laugh. It’s unfortunate that you have to go through a divorce but Byron definitely made it an easier process to go through and never made me feel like his hand was in his pocket, I was very pleased with the final outcome of my settlement, and it all had to do with having a fantastic lawyer, like Byron I highly recommend him as a divorce, lawyer, without hesitation

I have been represented by Byron Divine several times. My cases were extended by many years due to complexity and the litigious nature of the adversary. Throughout this time Byron was responsive, understanding of my financial circumstances and compassionate. Byron did not, ever, seek additional fees when he certainly could have. Byron cared for my results and more importantly he knew what we were up against and always fought for me.

I’m the first person to admit that I am not a fan of lawyers,due to multiple bad experiences throughout the years, but Byron has proven time and time again that he has my best interest in mind. Any reasonable requests I make for settlements or trails are dealt with in a professional manner. If there is a reason my request is unreasonable he will explain in detail why and how we should proceed to obtain the best possible outcome. Byron has been in my corner for over three years and I have no intention on going elsewhere. I highly recommend him, especially to represent clients with family court issues. I don’t have any complaints. -JOE

Working with Byron Divins on my separation and then divorce was as pleasant as this situation can be. He also was very compassionate toward me when I had difficulties with the emotions of it all and kept me focused on the important legal issues. I was able to rely on him and felt he did a good job in an odd and difficult circumstance. Some of the negative reviews don’t sound like they are describing the same person as that is far from the experience I had working with him and his firm.

Bryon and his team have provided excellent representation. After being divorce for over 5 years, my former spouse started with his nonsense of not paying child support and other frivolous accusations. Byron and his team have been compassionate and professional during my ordeal. I can't say enough good things about them. Happy to confirmed the court ruled in my favor. As a single mom, paying my bill has been challenging but their billing department has been great with accepting payment installments.

Byron was recommended to me through a college friend and I couldn't have been happier with his service. I came to him worried and out of sorts, but Byron calmed me down and convinced me I had a great case. He was reliable and always available via email or phone. He went above and beyond and even traveled out of state to support me. With his help, we won my case. Two years later, he still assists me with questions or concerns that I may have. Thank you Byron!

 
Child Custody

Litigation is not for everyone and it burns up money like most people wouldn't believe, until they are forced into it. The best you can probably expect in the family courts or anything involving divorce or your kids is that your attorney will make it slightly less painful and perhaps get you some of what you are seeking. Byron did that for me without breaking the bank. He told me what my chances were with the various things we could do and got me the best results i could expect under the circumstances. Byron represented me several times and I would go back to him again if i had to (God forbid). Just keep in mind no one really wins in Family or divorce court.
