Great job

John got us more for our settlement than he told us to expect. He was professional at all times and kept us up to date with the process. He was prompt and is very knowledgeable about the subject matter. I would absolutely use him again!

F150 Issues

We purchased a 2016 Ford F150 and almost immediately started having issues with it. We contacted John Barker and he reviewed our complaint and contacted us within a few days to let us know we had a case. Mr. Barker was extremely friendly and knowledgeable about the law and was able to ease our worrie...s that we would be stuck with a damaged vehicle and never receive compensation. The entire time our case was being worked on John made sure to keep us in the loop on everything. Our case only took a few months and Ford settled with us. I owe all of this to John and his exceptional legal skill. I can only hope that if in the future I require legal services that we get the expert service we received from John Barker.

Very satisfied; Highly recommend

John Barker was excellent from beginning to end. I contacted this law firm after having been lied to over and over again by the local dealer re: my car, a Ford Escape. My initial contact was a “cold call” to this firm having done some internet research. I felt fortunate to have been paired with M...r. Barker from the very beginning. He explained to me every option he was considering each step of the way and why he was recommending certain actions over others. Excellent communication. He answered all of my questions along the way and I fully understood the possible remedies, legal limitations and timelines. I just learned today that we have reached an agreement with Ford and I can say without hesitation that the outcome was a good one, a fair one, to me— the consumer. I give John Barker the highest possible recommendation in all regards.

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.

"Mr. Barker is hands down the best consumer law trial attorney I have ever seen. He has tried dozens of trials to jury verdicts on behalf of consumers throughout the country and has an impeccable track record nationwide as a leading consumer advocate. Not only can John win your case at Trial, he can more often than not obtain a favorable settlement much sooner than trial due to his knowledge, experience and reputation. If you have vehicle that you suspect is a lemon, do not hesitate: Call John Barker, he is your man."
