Proactive, Responsive - You need to call him!

I live out of state and needed to hire an attorney licensed in Missouri who could represent me. Not knowing quite what to do, I searched AVVO for attorney reviews and came across David Barrett. I called and spoke with him for quite a long time where he advised on legal issues, next steps, and really ...bridged that gap on what I didn't know but needed to understand. I was very pleasantly surprised when he proactively emailed me about things he discovered or additional insights he had. He even agreed to talk with my husband to reiterate what he and I discussed to alleviate my husband's fear of the unknown as well. I've worked with many attorneys over the years and never, until David, met someone who truly cared about keeping me educated and informed and answering the "stupid questions" I would pose. Relationship building at its finest. I would highly recommend you call David and see if he is the right attorney for you and your situation. He is a trustworthy guy and ridiculously engaged with your case. 5 stars for sure.
