Boyd Law

"Shelley O'Brien is extremely intelligent. She is a strong civil litigator and has a solid grasp of the rules and so she is able to run circles around opposing counsel. She was senior counsel on one case that we worked on together, and from that she became my mentor and mentored me on two other cases. I've never seen anyone who knows the law and litigation as well as she does. Because she has is a strong civil litigator, she is able to prevail over other counsel. One of her many strengths is in discovery and civil litigation -- an area that most family law attorneys do not do well. Ms. O'Brien is firm here. She is also savvy and strategic in addition to knowing the rules; she knows how to communicate clearly with opposing counsel; she is respected and her decisions are respected. I've seen how her intelligence commanded respect from even the most difficult opposing counsel. She gives careful thought to her work, and is a wonderful person. She builds rapport with her staff and team so that her team loves and respects her. Clients also respect her; she doesn't try to hide hard truths but communicates clearly about what is going on in the case and sets realistic expectations and gets wildly successful results."

"Shelley O'Brien and the staff at Boyd Law helped us in a child custody case. The plan that Shelley developed and implemented was great. After the case, she continued to provide excellent advice on how to navigate a difficult situation with the noncustodial parent. The staff at Boyd Law were always highly professional, competent, and responsive. We will always be grateful to them and to Shelley and recommend them without reservation."

"I need some legal advice, called Boyd this afternoon, they connected me with a call from one of their lawyers. They called me on time two hours later, answered a lot of questions over the phone. We made a plan to move forward with the documents I need and a cost to proceed. Thanks for the help, and the peace of mind. This is a good legal firm / lawyer nearby Sacramento Valley. Thanks ciao"

"Most law offices in Sacramento provide a 30-45 minutes free consultation to allow for a direct communication between you and your lawyer, but this office does not. They asked me to make a $2,500 before even shacking hands with me. I've done that because I had no time to look for alternatives. They are overpriced than current market hourly rates and my deposit has barely covered 4 hours of working on my case."
