Great Personal Injury Lawyer

I had a very positive experience working with John through a very difficult situation. I initially consulted with John about a medical problem I had recently suffered to understand if there was a course of legal action I should pursue. John is very knowledgeable about legal remedies in this area an...d was able to explain to me the process we would need to go through, the difficulties we may face, and the likelihood of various outcomes. He was able to take a very complex set of circumstances and explain in a way that someone unfamiliar with legal terminology could understand. He did not make decisions for me - he presented alternatives and advised me on the likely outcomes. I made the decision to hire John for my case and right away I was impressed with the level of detailed research he has done. There were over 800 pages of medical reports that he had to analyze and then brought to me some very important details on things that I was not aware of before his research uncovered them. Hiring John has definitely increased my awareness of how an effective attorney can significantly improve the strength of my case. He is very knowledgeable in personal injury/medical malpractice cases and I strongly recommend him for anyone needing an attorney. John displays a high level of integrity in everything he does. He is open and honest whether he is dealing with me or with an opposing party to our legal position.

Kept me Waiting and then Did not Follow Through

I called Mr. Barney about my impending divorce. Several months later I made an appointment. I drove 40 minutes to get to my appointment and was not given clear directions to find his office. There is no sign anywhere in the office park and I had to "ask around" to finally locate his office. I went... in and waiting 30 minutes before anyone acknowledged my presence. I was then told that Mr. Barney had an emergency and was not in the office. The other attorney took me in and did an intake form on me. Mr. Barney then ignored all of my phone calls and emails. This is how you run a business? Complete waste of my time and very disrespectful.

In looking into this, this individual initially had set an appointment for the end of April 2014. The day of the appointment she did not appear, but instead called my office after the time of the appointment to advise she was not coming. The next call was received several months later in October 2014 and another appointment was set. At the appointment, my associate advised her that my son had an accident and was injured and in the hospital, which was why I was unable to attend the appointment. I was out of the office attending to my son for several days after that and, unfortunately, failed to return one phone message that was left the day after the appointment. I apologize if you feel this was disrespectful.I do not know why my office could not be located from the address.
