 2/15/18   5     5     5     5     5   Divorce is hard and emotionally draining. I am very grateful that I had MR. Bays and his amazing staff leading the way through this difficult process. Their vast knowledge and years of experience are immediately noticeable. They're compassionate and understanding. I knew from the very first meeting that my case was in good hands. MR. Bays was persistent in advocating for my child and working out parenting time. I felt that every appointment I had was very productive and informative. My questions and concerns were quickly addressed. My phone calls and emails were responded to in a timely manner. RID: 196047
Click to report rating    4/20/17   5     5     5     5     5   Definitely recommend. Mr. Bays took the time to listen and care about my case. He helped to get me exactly what I was looking for when dealing with custody conflicts. I am very pleased with the outcome of his overall services as well as his staffs services. They were able to have my case completed in a timely manner and kept great contact throughout the process. I never felt like I wasn't important. RID: 183607
Click to report rating    12/26/16   5     5     5     5     5   With Bays Law Firm representation, I achieved all the assets and legal custody desired. Bays law firm's additional cost is well worth it. He (Randy Bays) gives free consultations and indicates in action and deeds his caring for your individual situation in achieving your dissolution. Bays Law Firm staff addressed my concerns and questions in a timely manner. If you are looking for a lawyer who will have your best interests and acquire the end results desired, Bays Law Firm is the place. RID: 178416
Click to report rating    8/31/16   5     4     5     5     5   I went for a consult and was told exactly what he felt he could do for me. It all sounded great almost to good. When I was informed of the cost I did not think that I would be able to afford his services but with a little help I was thankfully able to pay his fees. There was one small hiccup with a miscommunication but even that worked out for the best. I had to be represented because the first time I spoke with a judge alone I was treated very poorly. Thankfully Mr. Bays listened to me and worked diligently to help me get my son home where he belongs. All in all I feel that I was well represented and any issue I had with him was resolved completely. If and when I need to represented again I will defently hire him again to be my voice in the courtroom. The staff at Bays Law were always respectful, courteous, kind and helpful. Mr. Bays delivered everything he said that he would be able to do. He really went to bat for me when it counted. Thank you Mr. Bays and staff at Bays Law! RID: 173742
Click to report rating    5/2/16   5     5     5     5     5   Living out of state I felt it was important to have local representation for a child support modification case, Bays Law was that representation. All I intended was to have my son every summer, a reduction in payments and for the judge to know that the custodial parent was in contempt for not allowing me to claim my son for tax purposes when it was my time. Thanks to Bays Law I received much more; visitation half of every school break & holidays, as well as every other weekend and able to claim him for the next two consecutive tax seasons and now saving a difference of $533 bucks a month. I'm happy with the results! RID: 168714
Click to report rating    3/31/16   5     5     5     5     5   Represented my 73 year old dad who is disabled vet in divorce. Went above and beyond for my dad. Whole staff is amazing. RID: 167365
Click to report rating    1/23/16   5     5     5     5     5   I cannot thank Mr. Bays enough for what he has don't for my family. RID: 164357
Click to report rating    12/17/14   5     4     5     5     5   Mr. Bays represented us in a recent modification of custody case. From beginning to end, he was a strong champion for us. He has a knowledge and depth of the law, the court system, and the best tactics for a successful resolution to your case. He successfully negotiated an out of court settlement for us that was exactly what we wanted and we couldn't be more grateful. It is helpful to any attorney to be organized, have a clear goal in line to give to them, and prepare any and all information and evidence for him to support your case in court or as leverage in negotiations. We cannot think of another lawyer in the area with the stellar performance of Mr. Bays in the Cochise County area. He's worth every penny to have on your side and you definitely don't want to be representing the other party! RID: 147767
Click to report rating    10/14/14   5     5     5     5     5   My 7-year-old daughter’s horrible f. had filed for joint custody after over 5 years of total abandonment. Right away, I started looking for a lawyer and decided to hire Mr. Bays after reading his online reviews and meeting him in a free consultation. His office immediately filed a Petition for Termination of Parental Rights. It was a long grueling process and I was upset the whole time. Being a single parent, without a stepparent adoption in sight, I had my doubts as to whether or not Mr. Bays could deliver what he promised. In the end, it was clear that I had definitely hired the right lawyer. Mr. Bays showed up to trial well prepared and had an excellent courtroom presence. Today, October 14, 2014, I got the great news! We won the case. My ex’s parental rights are terminated, and he is still obligated to pay child support! I would highly recommend Mr. Bays to any one in Cochise County seeking a family lawyer. RID: 144654
Click to report rating    9/22/14   5     5     5     5     5   I recently retained the services of Randy Bays to address an urgent and difficult situation regarding the safety and well-being of my 2 year old granddaughter. At my initial consultation; after determining the facts of the situation, Randy informed me he could help and told me exactly what my costs would be for his services. He worked on my case the remainder of the day and succeeded in obtaining an emergency court order granting me legal decision making for my granddaughter. I had her home that evening. Randy worked closely with me preparing for a subsequent hearing on the matter. His presentation at the hearing resulted in me being granted temporary legal decision making for my granddaughter. Randy continued to work diligently on my case until a settlement was ultimately reached that was the best possible outcome for my granddaughter and I. Randy Bays is a talented, skilled attorney. I would recommend him without hesitation. Barbara Martinez RID: 143407
Click to report rating    8/27/14   5     5     5     5     5   August 27, 2014 I have had the pleasure of having Mr. Bays as my attorney. I recently relocated from Arizona to Georgia to be with my current. Mr. Bays has been extremely wonderful with all his work including his staff. I went to court in July 2014. Mr. Bays presented himself professional and knowledgeable in court as well as very well prepared for the day, to include the exhibits, which were used, questions being asked and strong minded. I highly recommend Mr. Bays for ANY case that is needed. He has years of experience in the field, served the military and is very friendly to all the clients. If I had any questions regarding the case, I was able to speak to someone, if they were not able to answer the question Mr. Bays would always get back with me in a timely matter. If anyone is looking for an attorney that is good I HIGHLY recommend Mr. Bays as your attorney. I was able to move with my kids and Mr. Bays was able to have my EX ha pay a portion of my attorney fees RID: 142360
Click to report rating    6/25/14   5     5     5     5     5   Randy, lead attorney, listened to my family issues and set into motion a plan to resolve my grievances. He created a calculated plan and it worked out perfectly. The process was lengthy but he kept me well informed of everything as it transpired and went the extra mile to ensure I was taken very good care of. He and his staff spent countless hours on my case and represented me better than I could have hoped for. Bays Law's prices were fair and worth every cent spent. Bays Law is the only law firm I use and the only one I recommend to family and friends. RID: 138795
     5/8/14   2     2     1     1     1   Mr. Bays was late and unprepared for one of my hearings. When called to come and review documents and sign, every single document had errors (very amateur), for example referring to me (a female) using the pronoun "he" throughout an entire document and other such stupid mistakes. After the hearing he was late for, I got rid of him. RID: 136549
Click to report rating    4/2/14   5     5     5     5     5   Mr. Bays and his staff are genuinely an honest hard working team. Randy sat down with me and heard me out on the day of my free consultation. I did not feel rushed, he took as much time as necessary to understand my expression of emotional dismay at hand concerning my child's best interest. I feel confident that by the end of my consultation he earnestly absorbed the discussion. He took into account all of the information I presented and agreed confidently to put his best foot forward to assure and safeguard my child's welfare. That is ultimately what truly matters, and that is what the outcome of this case reflected. I am very pleased and grateful to Mr. Bays and his staff. I can not show them enough appreciation. RID: 134805
Click to report rating    11/14/13   5     5     5     5     5   Randy came highly recommended to me from a close friend. After meeting with him for the first time, I knew I wanted him as my attorney. I felt very confident in him and his staff. Randy is very knowledgeable and even though going through a divorce/custody battle was very stressful, I never had any doubt in him. My case required a lot of extra research and time and Randy went above and beyond. He is very honest and straightforward - some people might get offended by the lack of "sugar coating" but I always appreciated it and I wouldn't feel as confident in an attorney that was known for being "nice". I truly don't think anyone else could have represented me in Federal Court any better - Randy has an amazing presence in the courtroom. He is the perfect example of a great attorney. RID: 127103
Click to report rating    5/21/13   5     5     5     5     5   Mr. Bays represented me during court appearances for legal actions filed against me and during my divorce. Mr. Bays and his staff were extremely professional and compassionate. They did not treat me like I was “just another client,” they treated me like family. Mr. Bays has the uncanny ability to assess a situation and provide me exactly what I needed. If I walked into Bays Law Firm feeling upset, anxious, or hopeless, I walked out feeling, calm, relaxed, had peace of mind, and no longer felt doomed. He was no different in the courtroom. Mr. Bays and his staff were available whenever and for whatever I needed them for. It is crucial for anyone reading this to understand that Mr. Bays’ integrity is unmatched by any other lawyer in Sierra Vista, Arizona. If you are in need of legal counsel, I highly recommend seeking initial consultation with Mr. Bays. You will not regret it. I know I did not. RID: 114259
Click to report rating    12/8/12   5     5     5     5     5   I really appreciate Mr. Bays and his legal team's assistance during what had become a two year, nightmarish battle for custody. I was being drained in every possible way and taken to court every few months. I finally have some freedom and the ability to move should I need to for jobs or any other reasons that would allow me to live and start to rebuild my life for myself and my daughter. In regards to legal fees, they are always going to be high when there is nothing you can do to avoid court (I wouldn't advise going without a lawyer). From experience, however, I have spent a year's salary just trying to keep my child and myself safe with no real win in the end in the past. With Bays, I just had one flat fee and no unexpected bills arriving in the mail. Knowing what the fee was upfront helped me plan and avoid ending up in debt. RID: 96373
Click to report rating    12/7/12   5     5     5     5     5   Mr. Bays represented me during my divorce and child custody case. The first day I walked in I was nervous and scared due to my situation. Not only did Mr. Bays help me calm down, but before I left he told me the outcome of my case. He was 100% correct. I now have sole legal and physical custody of my son and I couldn’t be happier. The office staff is fantastic, extremely supportive and professional. Debbie, Nicole, Amber, Griselda, they always made sure I had everything I needed from paperwork to the latest information on my case, even after I relocated out of state. His presence in the courtroom is strong and he truly stood up and fought for the best interest of my son. He is very straightforward and honest about what should be done and told me when I was being unrealistic and why. Thank you Mr. Bays & staff! RID: 96338
Click to report rating    6/12/12   5     5     5     5     5   When I needed a divorce lawyer, my first choice was Bays Law. I was able to get sole legal and physical custody of my 2 children. I paid a flat fee of $5000 for a contested divorce as my ex wanted joint legal custody. My ex had to pay $12,000+ for his lawyer fees. Mr. Bays was able to help gather all of my information and was able to have my case settled. I had to hire Mr. Bays again a year later to go back to court for the issue of interest. My ex s lawyer was outclassed and definitely bested by Mr. Bays. He knows Arizona Law as other Arizona Lawyers do not. I would hire Bays Law again for his friendly office staff and for his professional handling of both of my cases. RID: 72028
Click to report rating    5/31/12   5     5     5     5     5   I had first met Randy 7 years ago when I was going through my divorce. I knew from the moment I met him that he was going to be the best attorney to represent me. My divorce had several issues to consider and Randy was able to deal with all in a professional and efficient manner. I recently went back to Randy to fight for me in court to enforce some of the issues that were resolved in the divorce settlement. We went to court and he was aggressive and extremely knowledgeable in all areas. I truly felt that he was fighting for me and I was greatly impressed with his expertise. The results have always been in my favor. Randy is personable and easy to talk to. There is no doubt in my mind who to turn to when I need an attorney. I trust Randy. He is simply the best. RID: 71206
Click to report rating    11/19/11   5     5     5     5     5   Mr. Bays represented my son for a child custody case, in which his ex-wife had psychiatric/mental health problems. Mr. Bays was very aggressive battling his case in two courts (in Puerto Rico and Arizona) and against three lawyers and he still won in both courtrooms. My son passed away on 1 August 2011 and before I went to see him, Mr. Bays had started my case without even knowing if I could pay him. He fought for the rights and the safety of my grandchild and not once did he settle for anything less than what I had asked for. On 15 November 2011, I was granted sole custody of my grandson, without Mr. Bays, I don’t think it could have been possible I was depressed and lost due to my son’s death. God Bless him and the staff at his office, from the secretary to the paralegal they are all extremely efficient, kind and excellent in terms of customer service, returning phone calls and answering your emails and questions. This team truly care about their clients. RID: 55493
Click to report rating    5/25/11   5     5     5     5     5   Absolutely the best. HE WILL DELIVER. Financially Ethical (very reasonable one time fee) and believes in solutions rather than creating problems. A very no-nonsense lawyer. If you looking for a lawyer who will say anything to please you or make impractical promises just to get your business, he is not your guy. (the world is full of such lawyers). but if you are looking for justice, mr. bays will fight tooth and nail for it. i went to him since my ex-wife was mercilessly restricting my time with my boys and i was tired of trying to please her. he got me every other weekend, half of all the vacations/ extended weekends and very reasonable child support (less that what i was already spending voluntarily before the case)+ and joint legal custody. eloquent in court, always well prepared, respected in the legal community. supportive office staff with timely communication via e-mails. NOT a guy you want in the other camp. going to him was the best thing that ever happened to me. HIRE RID: 46178
Click to report rating    4/30/11   5     5     5     5     5   Randy it the most thorough lawyer I have had the opportunity to work with. Working in the criminal justice system I have had the opportunity to see many lawyers and interact with them on a professional and personal level. So I am confident when I say that Mr. Bays is the best that a person could obtain in an legal matter. Personally, I retained Mr. Bays to help with a child custody matter that produced the most favorable outcome that could have resulted in my case. I was awarded sole legal and physical custody of my son with child support. This is a big win considering that only 2% of fathers in the western part of the US are awarded both sole legal and physical custody. In addition I was awarded non-parental visitation of my step-daughter with many attorneys assured me would never happen. RID: 45045
