    My son was charged with two assaults resulting from drinking. Barry Diamond worked out both cases, helping my son get alcohol treatment and keeping him in professional school.

    perfect guy if he didn't know Neil Lewis

    Posted by

    Great guy to have on your side overall. Its unfortunate that he had to work with that crook Neil Lewis though... I don't get how Mr. Barry didn't catch on, he's a very knowledgeable man!? I dunno... I will 100% use him again if needed and refer anyone who needs an attorney to Mr. Barry.

    Smart Lawyer will get you money
