Best attorney ever!!!

I had an attorney before hiring this firm. This previous attorney was much like many I had hired in the past. He cared nothing about me or my case. He was in it for a quick payday. Mr Barbour was willing to offer his consultation for free and I felt at ease as he listened to everything I had to say.... He offered sound advice and he was doing more for me than the attorney I had hired. I eventually hired this firm and had him represent me in my divorce case. His expertise and excellence triumphed as he soon realized that my case was taking a turn toward a custody case. After he reviewed my case, he discussed with me all my options and the cost that would be incurred. I chose to go for custody with his 100% support. His knowledge and experience with dfcs and family court combined with his strong will to fight and litigate for his client was unprecedented. Being a male fighting for custody in a female dominated system I was unsure and this wasn't going to be an easy task, but Mr Barbour kept me positive and he had a vision of a positive outcome and he remained positive throughout my 3 1/2 year long case. He took control of the helm like a pro and knew his way around a system as if he was in his back yard. He made me feel confident, in control and assured that he was doing his very best to represent me and my interests. He was never demeaning or condescending and I always felt very at ease with him. His advice was amazingly correct, even when I had doubts. His skill was impressive as was his patience, honesty and professionalism. I now have custody of my three young children and am so very glad I chose to hire this firm and Mr Barbour to represent me in a challenging civil case. Mr Barbour was, by far, the very best attorney I have ever spoken with and hired. He is the ONLY attorney I have ever referred to anyone and that recommendation doesn't come without merit.

Criminal defense lawyer | May 25

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Clint is the first call I make when I have an issue arise that I want a trusted colleague to weigh in on. He never lets me down and continues to pay the price for it! I recently had the pleasure of working with him on a criminal case where we each represented one of two co-defendants. That experience no doubt made me a better attorney having the chance to learn from him. Clint is the man and one of the few you can truly trust no matter what kind of case you have."
