A Strong Attorney, Excessive Delay in Refunding Unspent Retainer

I’ve never met Mr. Barger, he did my consultation by phone last minute after his secretary called me to say he wanted to reschedule because he was sick. So we consulted by phone and he mailed me his contract, I deposited his full retainer and pre-paid for consultation. Then by Gods Grace my wife and ...I worked things out and decided to stop the process. Our case never went to court, they billed me twice because instead of printing the non-fillable pdf file they said they needed I wrote the information on lined paper, scanned it and posted it to their website. When I told them I no longer needed their services I was then notified that I would have to wait 30 days for my refund, today is day 42 of waiting for my refund. While I was told by my wife that her attorney wasn’t looking forward to facing Mr. Barger, I can’t recommend him.

He is an angel, Helped me and my family from living in fear

Mr. Barger, was highly recommended to me when I found myself trying to get out of a horrible marriage in which my children were being abused. I came to him distraught, trapped, and unsure of what could be done. He immediately got an injunction in place so that we were protected. His top priority was... always to protect my children. The divorce was nasty and he put me in contact with the experts necessary to not only prove the abuse but also protect my finances. He was ALWAYS available and quickly returned my calls and texts even on the weekends. Mr. Barger is an EXCELLENT trial attorney and he won my case. I would highly recommend him to anyone who was in a situation like mine where so much is at stake. My children and I are now doing great and are getting our life back together.

Child custody

I've hear of many great things about attorney Jason Barger and was contemplate whether to hire him or not due to distance. After a brief phone conversation I was very comfortable with him. He was very clear and precise of what needed to be done with my case. I met up with him at his office. His staff...s were very friendly and very kind. Mr. Barger were very sincere and to the point. He got me full custody and have my ex-hysband paid for my attorney fees. I would refer anyone to him in a heart beat. - K.Gibson

A TRUE PROFESSIONAL

JASON BARGER IS A TRUE PROFESSIONAL. JASON HELPED ME THROUGH THE MOST DIFFICULT TIME IN MY LIFE, THE LOSS OF MY WIFE. MY WIFE DIED WITHOUT A WILL, THEREFORE MAKING THE PROBATE PROCESS VERY DIFFICULT. JASON WAS EXCELLENT IN HELPING NAVIGATE THROUGH THE ENTIRE CASE,AND RESOLVED A DEVASTATING EXPERIENC...E TO A FULL AND AMNICABLE COMPLETION IN AN EXCEPTIONALLY SHORT TIME.9 ESPECIALLY SINCE I HAD RETAINED AN ATTORNEY, PRIOR TO JASON, WHO TOOK OVER TWO YEARS, AND STILL HADN'T BROUGHT MY CASE TO A CLOSE! I WOULD RECCOMMEND JASON TO EVERYONE AS HE IS A TRUE COMPETENT, CARING,KNOWLEDGABLE ATTORNEY ALWAYS KEEPING HIS CLIENTS INFORMED.

Bankruptcy and debt lawyer | Oct 02

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Jason Barger and I worked together for a good period of time at a law firm. He was experienced, knowledgeable, and dedicated to representing a substantial caseload of clients in matters of family law, bankruptcy, and debt relief. Once he decided to go out and establish his own practice, I knew he would be successful due to those same traits and work habits I had personally witnessed. For any family in financial distress, or any individual with a failed marriage, who needs an understanding friend and a strong legal advocate, I would recommend Jason."
