Click to report rating    2/1/23   1     1     1     1     1   Byron Divins is good at getting you to believe he knows all of the judges and is going to help you. I had very limited resources and trusted Byron. I was dismayed at Byron's lack of competence and his constant excuses and delays. Byron only cared about money, money and more money for himself with zero results to show for it. RID: 263831

Click to report rating    10/28/19   4     1     2     1     1   On a positive note, he is knowledgeable. The challenge is to make sure he executes on what was promised and timely. I found he procrastinated, to the determinate of my case and believe it was a strategy designed to inflate invoices. Note, invoices were always timely but often consisted of errors. Triple check invoices. I found numerous mistkaes & charged for work never done. In my opinion, the firm is inadequately staffed and very unorganized. He delayed in filling of documents. Many decisions were made behind closed doors & did not seem logical. They do not have an paralegal & were without clerical staff for over a month. He and his associate provided contradicting information/messages. Phone calls & emails were often ignored. My life has been destroyed because of the handling or lack of properly handling my case.

Click to report rating    6/11/19   1     1     1     1     1   Byron pulled the bait and switch on me. He promised me he knew all of the judges in Queens, New York, Nassau and Suffolk. As it turned out, Byron was known for all of the wrong reasons. He will lie to you and in court without thinking twice. His "legal expertise" is a joke. Very unprofessional. I have never seen such a narcissist who lives in his own world. Byron has zero legal aptitude or emotional intelligence to put the needs of his clients ahead of his own. Run as far and as fast away as you can. Byron is completely incompetent as a lawyer and doesn't care about running an honest law firm. RID: 211986
Click to report rating    5/23/19   1     1     1     1     1   I had a legitimate issue that was very serious. Byron Divins took personal jabs and attacked my being "too poor to obviously afford a lawyer". I'm humiliated and beyond disgusted that an attorney would treat me like garbage when he knows nothing about my back story. You are better off using the phone book instead. I could represent myself better. Please beware unless you want to give your money away and get railroaded by a creep. Do not use this attorney. RID: 211459
Click to report rating    5/22/19   1     1     1     1     1   Byron's firm does not care about its clients. He is careless, surprisingly incompetent, and his paralegals are rude and they do not give you accurate information. Byron promised he would "pull strings" for me. All he did was come up with excuse after excuse for why nothing was done on my case, while charging me an arm and a leg along the way. I regret choosing him to represent me. Don't be taken in by the installment payments and find another lawyer that will represent you with integrity. He will gladly take thousands from you and do nothing! Because of him, I've lost my life savings! Try and call Byron and you just get the run around. He literally laughed at me when I said I need answers about my case, then said I should find another lawyer and hung up! He is a crook who took advantage of me. Byron Divins was very quick to get my money and spend it on "legal" fees without any progress to show for it. Find another attorney because Byron Divins is horrible. RID: 211425
     5/21/19   1     1     1     1     1   Byron Divins is good at getting you to believe he knows all of the judges and is going to help you. I had very limited resources and trusted Byron. I was dismayed at Byron's lack of competence and his constant excuses and delays. Byron only cared about money, money and more money for himself with zero results to show for it. I put my savings on line for that crook and he stole from me. I highly recommend that anybody that has been taken for a ride like me to write your Congressman, Senator and every single person at the New York bar. Byron Divins is a thug who masks himself as an advocate. He took my money and came up with every story imaginable to keep my case from actually moving forward. Byron had no problem lying to me and the court when it served his interests. He is the worst lawyer ever. RID: 211397
Click to report rating    5/17/19   5     5     5     5     5   Byron has been a wonderful asset to my case. His knowledge, background, and ability to complete things in a timely matter was outstanding. I am confused by the other comments below because they do not match up with the experience that I had with Byron and his firm. RID: 211306
Click to report rating    5/10/19   5     5     5     5     5   I know the rating systems are 1-5 but Byron is a "10" Excellent! During my entire case Byron was there for me and my family from start to finish. His communication skills and knowledge of law is incredible. When I was in his office I was impressed with him but when I was in the court room with him, his communication, knowledge and tenacity SHINED! Amazing! Thank you Byron. RID: 211100
     3/17/19   1     1     1     1     1   Going with Byron Divins was the worst mistake I have ever made. The only thing he was good at was inflating his legal fees. He was all talk and accomplished nothing but delay my case to no end. Save yourself the trouble and avoid this crook. RID: 209483
     1/29/19   1     1     1     1     1   BEWARE. Byron is a criminal hiding behind a law degree. REAL RIP OFF AND SCAM ARTIST. RID: 207912

Click to report rating    2/16/16   1     1     1     1     1   He says I'm expensive but good. He's expensive but bad. He just bill you and never communicate with you. He is a fraud. It wouldn't be bad if he charged you and got the job done. He just charge you with out any results. I'm so sorry I recommend Mr. Divins. RID: 165392
