If you are facing disciplinary action by the military, Matt Barry is the best defense lawyer for you and your family. Don't hesitate to call Matt and let him help you save your military career!

Matt did a great job coaching me through and helping me respond to receiving an article 15 for extramarital conduct. I wasn’t proud of what I had done but Matt was understanding that everyone makes mistakes and helped me lay out the facts of everything that transpired to my chain of command. The resu...lt was that I received 45 days suspended punishment and the article 15 wasn’t filed in my OMPF. Matt is a smart and capable lawyer and a great ally to have in your corner when the going gets tough.

Prior to speaking with Attorney Barry, I was fairly certain about the lawyer I wanted to retain. After contacting several attorneys, I was exhausted from researching and was on a time crunch. I thought I would reach out to one last attorney for good measure - which is when I found Attorney Barry. I c...ontacted him on Thanksgiving Day where I received almost an instantaneous reply. After speaking with him over the phone, I was completely wowed by his immense care for my situation and confidence in a positive outcome. I knew from that conversation, I had received clarity. He was the best, and most obvious, choice. My GOMOR served as an extreme punishment for a vague and complex situation. This did not intimidate Attorney Barry - on our first phone call, prior to even being retained, he outlined his plan of action which was extremely thorough and ultimately successful. He truly invested in my situation, maintained excellent communication throughout the process, and went above and beyond in every way to best ensure that intended permanent GOMOR was locally filed. Attorney Barry's expertise, care, and critical thinking is unrivaled. If you are in a situation where there seems to be no way out - I strongly encourage that you retain Attorney Barry. He will work tirelessly until justice is won.

Matthew Barry Is more than just a lawyer, he is a veteran, brother, and a leader. My situation was very complex, and dated. I had taken my status as a veteran, and buried it deep, and walked away from that life. I had dealt with the embarrassment of a unfaithful spouse, on a large scale within my ch...ain of command, and an even larger scale investigation due to the members involved, allegations, and the controversy that erupted I was embarrassed, and decided to leave the military as quick as possible using a chapter that would live me with an other than honorable discharge. I was advised poorly years ago, and decided there was no hope in pursuing my benefits or my dignity. I contacted Mr. Barry via phone call after my spouse had vetted Mr. Barry’s web site. I had still felt no hope, or promise that a lawyer would help after being advised so poorly, and financially drained by previous counsel . I picked up the phone and called, and to my surprise I was immediately connected to Mr. Barry on his cell phone. Mr. Barry was extremely friendly, understanding, and was willing to meet immediately. Mr. Barry offered to meet me where I felt comfortable, and set up a time for our first meeting. My first impression of Mr. Barry was that he truly understood my circumstances, and looked at it through the eyes of soldier first, and a lawyer second. From the moment Mr. Barry took my case he was involved, and proactive in helping me obtain records. Mr. Barry made himself available, and communicated with me regularly offering his complete and honest opinions, and suggestions on how to handle my case. Mr. Barry completed my documents, and had them ready for review and sent off in an extremely timely manner. Mr. Barry not only built my case, he built my confidence back, and made me once again proud to have served, and helped me overcome a years long battle, and gave me confidence that something could be done. Mr. Barry has not only helped me as a client he has helped me as a person, and I recommend him to all veterans seeking assistance.
