Matthew Louis Barry

Attorney Barry helped us understand the disciplinary procedures at West Point. Our son made a mistake and we were confused with the process for discipline and concerned about possible separation from the academy. Barry knows the policies and procedures in their entirety and was extremely helpful expl...aining it to us. He can speak from his own experience as a West Point cadet and his esteemed military career. We trust him and are thankful for his guidance.

Mr. Barry is an outstanding attorney. Throughout my experience working with him in preparation for a military separation board, Mr. Barry demonstrated exceptional legal knowledge, and dedication to my case even when it was pushed back or prolonged. He took the time to thoroughly to understand my case..., explained every step of the process with clarity, and ensured I was fully prepared. His strategic guidance, attention to detail, and unwavering advocacy gave me confidence during a very stressful time. Mr. Barry’s commitment to service members, and ability to represent his clients with precision and respect make him an exceptional lawyer whom I trust and highly recommend.

I hired Mr. Barry when I was under allegations for misconduct. When the investigation started, I called Mr. Barry and his consultation and military law expertise really helped ease my mind and made me feel I were in the best hands possible. The investigation took two years and Mr. Barry was with me e...very step of the way providing guidance and direction on what actions to take and how to respond. Whenever I called his phone he answered, which really made me feel like my incident mattered. When the findings came back he reviewed my case and offered me sound advice for whatever my next course of actions should be. Although I didn’t get the complete outcome I was hoping for, it could've been a lot worse. Mr. Barry did prevent me from getting a felony conviction by speaking on my behalf to the legal prosecution and offering his own expert advice after reviewing the details of my incident. He was the middle man for between me and the legal team, alleviating much of the stress that I was already feeling. Overall, I highly recommend Mr. Barry. He displayed professionalism and general concern for my case. He was honest, upfront, and to the facts. He did not sugarcoat me with things I wanted to hear, but instead told me the facts how they were so we would could better plan a defense. I hope I never find myself in a military legal matter again, but if I am, Mr. Barry is the first person I would call.

Matt was helpful, prompt and honest. I needed someone who would work with me and provide honest feedback, not just what I wanted to hear. He did a bulk of the work and in the quick turnaround time needed. Was able to reduce what would have been an LOR to an LOA. Which saved my career and promotional ...opportunities.

Mr. Barry is the best military justice lawyer I have had the pleasure of working with. He truly gets results!! He assisted in getting my permanent GOMOR placed into my restricted file and is still aggressively fighting and assisting me in getting the GOMOR completely removed from my record. He is ver...y responsive no matter the time of day or how busy he is. He also helped me draft a letter to the President of the board which ultimately played a role in getting me promoted. I even had another unfortunate incident that truly deserved a GOMOR and he advised me through the 15-6 process and I ended up only receiving a counseling statement. I highly recommend Mr. Matt Barry if you ever find yourself in any unfortunate legal predicament in the U.S. Military!
