John Charles Barrett

Mr. Barrett did a great job on my divorce. My ex tried stalling on paying child support with his attorney and he handled it right away and got him to start paying me. His office stayed on top of getting my case mediated even though my ex's attorney kept putting it off. He helped me stay calm dur...ing mediation and I got a really good deal. I definitely recommend him for handling divorces.

I strongly advise against hiring this attorney as they proved to be a complete waste of time and money. Despite paying a substantial amount to secure their services, they displayed a shocking lack of awareness regarding my case and consistently failed to respond to my calls and emails, even during cr...itical periods. I ended up having to handle everything myself, putting in all the effort while they were completely absent. This attorney makes empty promises and only pretends to be on your side until they have drained your finances, at least 10k in my case, and then conveniently disappear, leaving your case in ruins. Please do not jeopardize your family's funds by entrusting them with your legal matters. To put it bluntly - they provided zero support whatsoever.

I hired John Barrett to represent a custody issue for my son in 2021. His paralegal, Donna, promised it would be filed in a week, which was important to us as the baby had been kept from us for months. Not only was it not filed for another month, the case drug on and on because Donna was there one ...week, and mysteriously not with the firm the next so we had to start again with the minute details, then back again weeks later. This went on for months with delay after delay. Then in court, his representation and advice was not at all helpful. Would have been better off without legal representation. Just found out that my son never even got the final papers. I plan to file something with the Georgia Bar.

Hired on another lawyers recommendation. They collected a retainer within 15minutes. Made sure to get money immediately and a year later we have not even filed anything. Requested a ledger for billing since nothing has been done. No response. No one has moved forward with our case at all. We have ha...d to get another lawyer involed. This place basically pocketed our money for adoption and disappeared. To this day we still have been represented or filed anything and are now having to file with another lawyer just to deal with this lawyer. Crazy experience. So disappointed. This was an adoption case and they just completely left this child and our whole family flapping in the wind. I've never seen anything like it.
