Would never recommend this woman

Ms Barone demanded a hefty retainer and then disappeared. She had a million excuses, made appointments and wasn't there when I arrived. None of my calls were answered, letters ignored, and certified mail returned. She did NO work on my case whatsoever.

Posted by anonymous | September 21, 2012 | Lawsuits & Disputes

Great in court, knew the law, and got me a great result at the end,

She was a great attorney and really knew her stuff! While her office staff kept me informed and were responsive to my calls and emails, she personally was not great with returning phone calls or emails. But, she kicked axx in court, knew my case and the law completely, and got me a fantastic resolu...tion! I would totally recommend her to everyone, and I would absolutely go back to her and use her again. I would rather she spend time on my case, than talk to me, anyway, and the attorney and her office were really fair and reasonable with the fees and costs too.

  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
