Amazing attorney

I spoke with Attorney Barabino because I had a legal question about something criminal. He was really open and receptive and explained my situation clearly. When we finished talking I felt like I was better informed about my options. Great attorney. Highly recommended.

Best Criminal Defense Attorney in New England

I have hired Attorney Barabino for myself several times. Attorney Barabino has got me the best possible outcome in court every single time. He has even won me a case outside of his expertise. I have referred him to family members such as my own mother. Attorney Barabino is the best criminal defense a...ttorney in all of New England as far as I'm concerned. I highly recommend Attorney Barabino to anyone. Period.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
