Wonderful!

Barrie was able to get me into a program where I would have the opportunity to clean my record. She explained everything with detail to me so that I could understand the process and actions her and I had to do. 10/10 would recommend if anyone needs a great lawyer.

Struggles.

I am by no means a barracks lawyer or anything like that so I won't pretend to know how the legal system works. All I know is I was looking down the barrel of 3 charges with a penalty of $5000+ and a year in county. Barrie carved that out and at the hearing I was charged with only two charges, landin...g me only a year probation and a $100 fine -no folks, that's not a typo. Hundred bucks. Before I called, I was plagued by anxiety and sleepless nights post-arrest. But between Dennis breaking it down to me on the phone and Barrie telling me exactly how the proceedings would happen, I felt no more fear. Barrie was professional, kept me informed and inspired confidence. Never once did I feel judged or belittled. If you're in a legal bind and a bit embarrassed? Give her a shout.
