Trial Lawyer

I had a case in Cecil County Circuit Court for a Jury Trial in which I was represented by Mr. Harry Barnes. The charge was second degree assault in an incident where I had an altercation with a man in Perryville. I could not have been more pleased with the way this man handled the case and I was foun...d not guilty. If you have a criminal case where you want awesome representation, then he is your man. He is thorough, professional, courteous, and knows his way around a courtroom as best as any I've ever seen.

Highly Recommended Attorney

Professional and respectful. He and his team were very considerate as well as concerned and caring. Informative and knowledgeable. I would hire him again and recommend him to others. The outcome was very favorable to the client and the state. He works hard for his client and stays in contact.

Harry Barnes

Harry is an amazing attorney. He got all of my husband's charges dropped. We have complete trust in him and am so thankful to have been given his name. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for defense attorney.

Absolutely Dominant!

I was issued a slew of charges when my vehicle struck a telephone pole. With my credentials and personal life in jeopardy, I disclosed my situation to a colleague and he didn't hesitate to point me in Harry Barnes direction. Following my first conversation with Harry I knew he was the man for the ...job. It wasn't long after he took the floor in the courtroom that the charges were dropped and I was on my way home. Harry represented me professionally and confidently, delivering a flawless and powerful defense. I would recommend Harry Barnes and his team to anyone under any circumstances! I can't say thank you enough to Harry, Matt, and Marilyn for their guidance and representation!

Kimberlie Perez

We hired Mr. Barnes one year ago to represent our daughter who was arrested and charged with a serious felony offense. His representation was above excellent and He was able to relieve the stress that was placed on Kimberlie and our family from the very beginning. He accomplished everything that he t...old us he would and eventually convinced the state prosecutor and the courts to nol process her charges. He then went as far as getting the necessary papers filed to expunge her record of any involvement in the case. For this we are extremely grateful and highly recommend Mr. Barnes and his staff to any and all that require a first class attorney, Kimberlie can now get on with her life as the decent person that she is. We extend our thanks to Harry, Marilyn and Matt for their legal and personal services.

Avvo Rating

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.
