Barry H Helfand

I wish I could give 10 stars. Engaging Barry to help me with my 2 DUI cases was one of the best decisions I've ever made. Barry handled my cases effectively and gracefully. He has helped me to get the lightest sentences possible !!! I actually think the results were better than the lightest sente...nces possible. Because of COVID, the court had to change my court dates and the process dragged longer than expected, but Barry and his legal assistant Melanie have always made themselves available whenever I need them. First class lawyer with first class legal assistant! I would highly recommend Barry and his law office. He has saved my life. He could save yours too.

Barry Helfand is the single greatest lawyer that I've ever heard of, let alone had on my team. As a repeat offender I was sure that I was going to have "the book thrown at me". The day of my trial I was extremely nervous but Barry kept me confident. I'm still unsure of what sort of legal wizardry he ...preformed but five minutes after his arrival into the court room he had my case verdict: Nolle prosequi. I never would have dreamt this to be possible for a third DUI charge. I will absolutely recommend Barry Helfand to anyone in a tough spot legally. thanks again Barry!

Well you need not look up the meaning; briefly, a person or model of excellence and perfection that should be followed by others. And that is what Barry is. He is just that. He has practiced LAW for over 50 years with the excellence and dignity and at times humor that makes him the most sought after ...attorney and the most respected by his peers, the court and police officials. Thanks Barry, for your wonderful representation of my wife for her DWI/DUI in her hour of need.

Mr. Helfand is one of the, if not THE, best criminal defense lawyer in the state of Maryland. His comprehensive knowledge of the law, criminal law in particular, is unparalleled. Barry has been defending alleged criminals so long now that police officers and people at the State's attorney's office ge...t nervous simply hearing his name. He has certain aura to him that I've never seen in any other lawyer. People are silent when he speaks, they do not want to miss a single word he says... chances are it will be either the funniest or most profound thing they've heard all day. The lawyers I consulted with prior to Barry seemed like they had more important matters to deal with and made minimal efforts to retain me as a client or show any concern for my case whatsoever. Mr. Helfand, on the other hand, made an effort to carefully and diligently prepare a defense for my relatively trivial DUI case while simultaneously preparing for 2 other murder cases. Barry's work over the years has not gone unnoticed; the name Helfand carries much weight in the judicial system. We all know how slow and long it takes to get any administrative thing done in any court. Not only do things get done when "Helfand" is mentioned, they get expedited. I've seen it happen before my very eyes. In sum, Barry Helfand is worth every single penny. If you want the best chances of obtaining a judgement in your favor (or getting your case thrown out completely) the Law Office's of Barry Helfand should be your first stop. If you don't believe me, take one step into his office and you will immediate notice the flood of awards Barry has been blessed with over the years... Top Maryland Lawyers, Top Washington Lawyers, Washington's Best Legal Minds, the list goes on. I promise you, you will not be upset when you hire Barry Helfand as your lawyer.
