In Memoriam

Alvin L. Darby, Esq.

I am committed to providing clients my absolute best effort in any case I handle for them.

In Remembrance of Alvin Darby

It is with deep sadness that we share the news of the tragic loss of our dear friend and colleague, Alvin Darby, who passed away unexpectedly on January 12, 2022.

Alvin was a an incredibly talented and valued attorney who spent his 15 years with the Firm handling all aspects of complex commercial claim litigation for the Firm’s Collections Department. However, Alvin was always more than a co-worker and trusted advisor to his clients – he was a thoughtful and gentle man who was cherished as a longtime friend to so many. His contagious smile, positivity and kind nature will be missed more than words can express and the office will not be the same without him.

This is a tremendous loss for all of us who knew and worked with Alvin, and we continue to keep his family in our thoughts and prayers. Alvin is survived by his beloved mother, Annie Darby; his loving wife, Kyra Swinney-Darby; his sons Alvin Darby II, and Emanuel Darby; his stepson Koran Swinney; his granddaughter Bri’elle Darby, his God Sister, Sharon Ellis, and a host of other relatives and friends.
