Happy Client!!

The Law Office of Clay M Barnes was available to represent me in a fall case. I was represented better than I could have imagined during this trying time. He has a very personal approach and makes it easy to trust him. Mr. Barnes expertise, diligent work ethic and patience were instrumental in my v...ictorious outcome. He accepted my case when multiple attorneys turned me down, he pushed for medical care and he fought for me when corporate America minimized my injury. I never thought I would need legal representation and if you find yourself injured lost and alone...call Mr. Clay M Barnes...The Irish Bulldog!!

Hes amazing

I found Mr. Barnes by doing a simple google search. I wasn’t sure I would find a lawyer that could take the case but he did. Him and his team were very professional and knowledgeable. He is very educated and informed about my road rage case and was able to win the case even though the insurance denie...d the case initially. I would definitely recommend him to any and everyone especially if you want results.

Car Crash

I was in a low impact rear collision (30mph) in the Fort McHenry tunnel 3 yrs ago. I consulted A lawyer in Belair Md 1st but they rejected my case. I then contacted Clay Barnes which was recommended to me through my wife's nursing co-worker. I had pain in my neck shooting down the left side of my bod...y. I spent almost 2 years seeing various doctors to figure out my injuries. Meanwhile the insurance company was giving us lowball settlement amounts. Clay was caring, patient and advised me through out the entire process. Clay is truly looked out for my best interest and I'm so blessed to have had him. In the end I was diagnosed with thoracic outlet syndrome (rib pinching nervous and blood vessels). I had a rib removed and my pain was gone instantly. The insurance company we were suing continued to make offers that didn't even touch my medical bills. Through time I was amazed to see how Clay used the evidence from the accident and my medical treatment to help me get a fantastic settlement! Clay is for the people, not just his wallet!
