Great Lawyer

Jeff is an excellent attorney; he is sharp, very intelligent, and knows the law. He took on our case knowing that my wife and I were up against a big firm trying to take our home. He has been very patient in dealing with our anxieties resulting from the ups and downs of our case. Jeff is honest, t...rustworthy, and articulate; he takes his time simplifying legal terms for us to keep us in the know. Working with him and his staff has been a great pleasure. He makes us feel like David going against Goliath.

Highly recommend

Very Professional, knowledgeable, and dedicated. Mr. Barnes showed me the upmost respect while assisting me with my foreclosure legal malpractice and HOA cases. Mr. Barnes knows the foreclosure law better than anyone else that I have known and continues to fight for the homeowner against a system th...at lets the banks act unethical and also allows the banks to not follow the .rules of law with many a Judge willing to let the banks do so. Mr. Barnes keeps me informed about my case. He is extremely attentive, always return my phone calls and emails I would recommend Mr. Barnes to all my family and friends!

Bad experience

Upon referral from a trusted attorney, I emailed W Jeffrey Barnes, indicating my intent to hire him for a real property matter. I traveled to Newport Beach, California, and paid W Jeffrey Barnes a $450 consultation fee. After W Jeffrey Barnes accepted my check, he informed me that he was not licensed... to practice law in California, and thus could not represent me in said matter. He then told me that he could provide consultation services for another lawsuit matter. W Jeffrey Barnes contacted my attorney. Nothing that W Jeffrey Barnes provided to my attorney was usable. When I contacted W Jeffrey Barnes again, I found him to be rude and insulting. W Jeffrey Barnes then emailed my attorney about my lawsuit matter without my consent. I contacted the State Bar of California. I further requested a refund from W Jeffrey Barnes. W Jeffrey Barnes responded with threats against me via email. I do not recommend W Jeffrey Barnes.

Experience

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2022.

Suspension Partially Stayed Placed on Probation issued in CO, 2022

updated on 01/23/2023

Suspension partially stayed means the attorney lost his or her license to practice law for a period of time. When the attorney returns to practice he or she will be on probation, meaning the State monitors the attorney's activities for a period of time in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior

Censure issued in CO, 2019

updated on 10/22/2019

This means the attorney did something wrong, but the Bar did not suspend the lawyer. Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
