Great Experience

Mr. Sallinger represented my grandson on two separate cases:: a Domestic Abuse & Battery charge, and a drug induced DUI arrest. We were elated when both cases were dismissed, and Mr. Sallinger's staff has begun to expunge the arrests from my grandson's criminal record. We were. Impressed with the ...professionalism, empathy, courtesy thoroughness of Mr. Sallinger and his staff. We would seek his services again, and are happy to recommend him.

If you need representation!

We hired Mr. Barry to represent my son, he was straight forward and honest, with no "Smoke and Mirrors". We always knew where we stood, and he helped us tremendously. One thing that struck was his compassion, but honesty. I highly recommend. He has a superb team in his court.

Definitely Recommend!

We hired Sallinger Law to handle a family matter for us and are very pleased with the outcome. Allyson, Barry, Jan, and the entire team are top-notch - very professional and great to work with. They always responded to our questions in a timely manner, were knowledgeable about the law and our right...s, and got the job done. We would definitely recommend.

What a great law firm!

I have had the pleasure of interacting both with Mr. Barry Salligner and Ms. Allyson Prejean at the Salligner Law Firm. While nobody wants to have to retain a lawyer and go to court, I must report that both of these individuals made the court processes as painless as possible. Mr. Sallinger represe...nted me personally and Ms. Prejean represented my son in a separate matter. All interactions were timely, responsive, and professional. Most notable was that Ms. Prejean went out of her way to help me to help my son obtain the assistance that he so greatly needed. She was compassionate, caring and tenacious in securing the needed help. As well, the supportive staff / paralegals for both of these individuals exhibited excellent follow-through with communication. I highly recommend Mr. Sallinger and Ms. Prejean!

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.

  • 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.
