Dylan Boyd
Managing Partner
For more than a decade as a Maine attorney, Dylan Boyd has successfully represented clients at all stages of litigation. Inside the courtroom, he has zealously advocated for clients at both jury trials and hearings before judges--in both criminal and civil cases. He has also guided clients to successful results outside the courtroom by negotiating advantageous deals and drafting effective legal documents.
Dylan was born and raised in Boothbay Harbor, Maine. He attended the University of Vermont and earned a bachelor's degree in English in 2006. He returned to Maine to attend the University of Maine School of Law in Portland. During that time, he published an article in the Maine Law Review and served as the journal's Executive Editor; he also gained real world experience at the Volunteer Lawyers Project and Cumberland Legal Aid Clinic. In 2010, he graduated from law school cum laude and was presented with the Outstanding Scholastic Achievement Award for Business and Commercial Law. After law school, he worked at another law firm for five years before founding the Law Offices of Dylan Boyd in 2015.
Dylan has excelled as an attorney in Southern Maine, representing clients in everything from the most serious criminal charges and challenging family law cases to relatively easier matters such as wills and uncontested divorce proceedings. He is also trained and certified as a mediator, focusing on family law mediation.
He is licensed to practice in all courts in the State of Maine and has litigated in courthouses throughout the state, from York to Bangor. In addition, he practices in federal court--in the United States District Court for the District of Maine and the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit.
Dylan is a member of the Board of Directors of the Maine Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers. He has been a presenter on the topic of family law at a seminar by the National Business Institute. He has been selected by SuperLawyers since 2018.
