Mr. Boyer will handle your case personally from beginning to end. He will not pass it to a junior attorney. If your case requires more than one attorney, Mr. Boyer will either associate other attorneys, while remaining in control of the case, or refer you to one of the larger firms. In most cases, there is no need for more than one attorney, and he will give your case the personal attention it requires.

In business cases, Mr. Boyer thinks he should know the inner workings of his client’s business, or he will learn about it. Mr. Boyer works closely with several highly-qualified business and banking consultants and appraisers. When appropriate, and the client is in agreement, he may suggest that his clients consider retaining a consultant to assist with the case.

Mr. Boyer understands the difficulty, the stress and the uncertainty that often accompany financial issues. A client’s need for confidentiality is of utmost importance. The small firm setting helps insure that your situation will be kept confidential.

Outside of work, Mr. Boyer enjoys time with his family on his farm and ranch, barbequing with friends and family, historic renovation, and construction projects.

Mr. Boyer is assisted by his legal assistant and paralegal Kathy English, bookkeeper Lawana Combes, and receptionist Pam Forbes. These invaluable staff members have all been with Mr. Boyer for 18 years or more. Mr. Boyer’s dog, Luna, is frequently at his office.
