Before Steve Boyd was a Buffalo personal injury lawyer, he spent 16 years as a broadcast journalist telling people’s stories. When a new client has sustained a personal injury, Steve works hard to understand the true depth of how the injuries change their life. The key for personal injury lawyers is finding the most open and honest way to share the full truth of our clients’ injuries.
