Mr. Barker is True warrior

I can't thank enough what mr. Barker did for me and my daughter in an unending case against DHHS and court. It took us over 2.5 years to go back and forth with DHHS and local court but Mr. barker fought tooth and nail for me and my family. When i was frustrated, angry, despaired and ready to give up.... Mr. Barker famous statement " take a bite of the apple at a time" (meaning a little step at a time to get to our goal) got me going. He never quit on us and kept fighting. He even drove 10 hours to represent me deep in to the heart of UP. The DHHS lawyer admitted It was the very first time someone drove that far to represent his client in that court. It provided a strong basis to our case in the eyes of judge. After 2.5 years of battle the court and DHHS finally gave up and i was reunited with my daughter. I was innocent while no one believed me, Mr. Barker did, not only he believed but he went to extremities to support and win my case. I would recommend any one who is looking for a true lawyer who is not just a good at what he does but noble by heart, honest and compassionate. HE WILL GET YOU VICTORY.

Best attorney on the planet

Very compassionate down to earth gentleman. Great contact. Excellent explanations and immediate results. One week after retaining Mr. Barker and we see our child after being withheld continuously. Our family is very grateful and we look forward to working with him to finally resolve this on going ...family case.
