Barry is obtuse, petty, and pissed he’s not a judge anymore

I inquired of services for my disability case and had great difficulty getting return messages from his daughter, paralegal. Messages were ambiguous and my replies were systematically lost. When I called this practice “inept” and “incompetent” after they closed my case, Barry wrote me a long scoldi...ng message absolving himself of blame and threatening to call the police on me. Barry is obtuse, petty, and pissed that he’s not a judge anymore. He really would have liked to cite me in contempt. As it is, he is actually just an attorney that you don’t want to deal with if you are seeking results.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • 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.
