Johnnie Byrd and David Barnhill represent clients in family law, probate, wills & trusts, adoptions, DUI, criminal defense, expungements, domestic violence, car accidents and business law.
We take cases in Plant City, Tampa, Dade City and Lakeland in Hillsborough, Polk and Pasco counties. Beginning with our first conversation, we will do the best we can to give you good legal advice. Whether we can help or not, we will counsel you on what we think about your legal issue. If we can help, we will say so. If not, we will recommend other lawyers or legal resources.
Next, you decide if you wish to retain us to be you lawyers. If so, we prepare a contract for legal services that spells out what we will do for you and what the fees and costs will be. In most cases, a non-refundable retainer fee is charged based on the expected initial work to be done.
