Defective Pickup

After exhausting all avenues with General Motors. I contracted John Barker with a consumer complaint. He reviewed my case and accepted it. Without attorneys like him, the consumer like me, would have little hope of ever finding a solution. So I am grateful for Mr. barker taking the case.

Great Lawyer

John handled my lemon law case, and was very helpful and professional. He always kept me up to date on what was happening with my case and made sure everything was handled promptly. He did an excellent job negotiating my settlement, and I'm very satisfied with his work. I'd would hire him again if I ...ever needed his services in the future.

John fought hard against Hyundai for me!

John was very helpful, from the 1st phone call. He coached me on the ins and outs, and the highs and lows of dealing specifically with Hyundai. He stuck with this case which dragged on over six months. He knew when Hyundai was offering a deal not following the CA Lemon laws. He always answered my que...stions, quickly. Hopefully I never need his services again, but I would not hesitate to contact him should that happen.
