SUPER LAWYER

Mr Diamond really did an amazing job it’s my second time using him. I had a person injury case he didn’t just settled he worked. Answered all of my questions that I had! I can’t forget about his Paralegal Teilla she was awesome very sweet and helpful. I would highly recommend Barry Diamond!

Not my client. The client was charged with violation of probation and assault. The case was dismissed and the VOP was dismissed and she was released the same day

Lawyers can only do so much

I had Mr Diamond handle my workmans comp case keep in mind it's not going to make you rich workers comp is very difficult when you get hurt on the job' they are more for the employer then the injured worker' Mr diamond can only do so much he laid my case out to the judge and that's it the judge gives... you what he wants trust me the lawyer would love to get you a million bucks it doesn't happen in a work injury' Mr diamond will get you what he can by law that simple he will make sure you get your weekly benefit s or he will call them and make it happen' but he knows what he is doing trust me the rest is up to the judge thank you Mr barry

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.
