REALITY STAR

Brooke Barnett is far from a good lawyer by any standard.I reached out to her firm as my 12 year old was being bullied at school and threatened suicide and her school knew about the bullying and completely dropped the ball, I had to do something. I reached out to Barnett and her team and she sold me... this illusion that she went through something similar as a child when after a month she gave my case to another attorney I called and asked as to why she would give this case away but she began acting callous and unsusceptible.She still has not called me about my daughters case so I call firm only to find out the 3 attorneys Barnett gave my case of to an extern, who generally had no idea of the turmoil my child was going through so everytime we talked I got the run around. MONTH'S AND MONTHS LATER Iam reaching out to Barnett and her office and her externs and now at this point she send me a letter saying she dropped my daughters case after 3 years not answering my calls. Here I'am today realizing that I completely misconstrued the games lawyers play.Barnett wasn't going to fight for my daughter or her mental health as she was being bullied because she represents the bullies why would she falsely claim something so dear to her heart none the less she is a perpetrator.This is an illogical misrepresentation of what a lawyer should be doing, illogical even within the standards of a human being,and holds no relationship with her conscious . # KIDS DONT MATTER BUT MONEY DOES.

Horrible money hungry lawyer DO NOT HIRE

All Brooke wants is money she will take your case and do nothing for you it's all about money. She kept telling me my case was huge and it wasn't wanted me to pay thousands of dollars she took advantage of me and my family and took our money. She will not show up in court and she is very rude stay aw...ay

DO NOT HIRE THIS WOMAN

i got brooks name from a good friend who knew of her. I live in SF so I needed a NJ att. At first, she was very nice but quickly became non existant. She quoted a certain price then the day of court, had her paralegal call me and tell if if I didn't pay 2 hours before court, she was no longer my lawy...er??? She never returned any of my calls-ever. It was odd and unprofessional to say the least. To this day, she has never sent me one legal document from her office. Never hire this woman, she has no ethics when practicing law. Im sorry I ever came in contact with this woman. DO NOT HIRE HER>>SAVE YOURSELF!

Worst experience EVER

She was always late (like, HOURS late) to court appearances, she didn't keep me informed or promptly return phone calls, forgot about court appearances, and then sent her associate in her place without my knowledge or consent. She was also astronomically more expensive than other attorneys. Hire so...meone else, Brooke Barnett wants to be a reality star, not an attorney.
