I would highly recommend Attorney Ken Barlow, he did a great job representing a family member in a DUI situation and was able to get a breathalyzer thrown out. Ken worked quickly in restoring driving privileges as well.

I had a serious case (charged with felony DUI) lasting for more than 2 years. He did the best to bring my charge down to adjudication withheld, by talking to all prosecutor, victim's lawyer, and judge. I am very thankful to be back into my normal life.

"Ken Barlow is an exceptional lawyer with finely-tuned trial skills and an endless knowledge of criminal law. With decades of experience as not only a defense attorney, but also as a Judge and Prosecutor, Mr. Barlow is one of the best in the business. I endorse Mr. Barlow without reservation."
"Ken Barlow has worked tirelessly in developing his legal skills to ensure his clients get the possible results. He was a prosecutor, defense attorney, judge and now returns to criminal defense. Experience that is hard to match. I endorse this lawyer."
"Mr. Barlow is an exceptional attorney, who possesses a wealth of knowledge. He has a unique background as he has played every role in the criminal system from prosecutor to criminal defense attorney to county court judge and back to criminal defense. He is highly respected in the legal community and has a reputation as fierce adversary. Mr. Barlow is often sought out by other attorneys to assist them in complex litigation. I would not hesitate recommending Mr. Barlow to anyone facing criminal charges."
"I've known Ken Barlow since I began practicing in 2005 and I have always respected his knowledge of the law, his temperament as a judge and the respect that he bestows on other attorneys and defendants alike. Ken has an encyclopedic knowledge of case law and always employs that knowledge to the benefit of his clients. I wholeheartedly endorse Ken Barlow and highly recommend anyone in need of his services to put him at the top of their list of attorneys."
"I highly recommend Ken Barlow for criminal defense representation. I have had the honor of practicing before Ken Barlow when he was judge in the 9th judicial circuit. He is incredibly well versed in the criminal law field and highly respected by his peers. Should you need representation, I would strongly suggest meeting with Ken Barlow."
"I endorse this lawyer. Ken is one of the best defense attorneys out there. He was also one of the best judges I had the honor to practice in front of. His knowledge of the law and criminal procedure is unsurpassed. As a former prosecutor, I can honestly say that he was one of the two or three attorneys we all hated to see walk into the courtroom as the defense attorney. He was always well prepared and quick thinking. I highly recommend Ken for any criminal or DUI matter and am honored to have him joining our firm as a partner."
