Posted by Heidi | August 26, 2015 | Hired Attorney | Domestic Violence

You won't find a more thorough or caring attorney!!!

I retained Mr. Lancaster for a very tricky protection order case and couldn't have been happier with the results. After months of harassment from my ex, in which he had filed multiple protection orders against me so that I could not go to work, Barry ensured that he is no longer able to affect my lif...e. He was caring, concerned, and incredibly kind throughout the process. He exhaustively combed through mounds of paperwork, referencing and cross-referencing every item until he understood every nuance of my case. I can't recommend his services highly enough and I am incredibly grateful for his compassion and expertise!

Extremely smart and knowledgable Lawyer

Being charged with a DUI/DWAI put me in one of the worst situations I have ever been in. It is extremely stressful. The system is set-up to make you feel as if you have no legal options, and are therefore simply screwed for being in this position. I am lucky enough to have found Barry Lancaster. ...Upon taking time out of his vacation to speak with me on the phone, I got a sense that Barry would work very hard to do what was right for me and my case. This foreshadowing could not have been more correct. Barry kept me informed of the different hearings, what would happen in them, and how that would relate to my case, as well as the fastest way to get my license back. Barry is extremely smart, and when this is matched with his knowledge on the subject of DUI/DWAI, the outcome is providing the best chance for one to win a case. He takes a scientific approach that I personally really like. I would not have felt better with anyone sitting next to me in the courtroom. Barry ultimately helped me to be acquitted. If you want the best possible chance to win your case, hire this man.

Very Professional, Knowledgeable, and Personable - Great Experience

I contacted Mr. Lancaster at the recommendation of a friend and he did a wonderful job handling my case. He was very upfront and honest about his expectations, recommendations, and what options were relevant to my specific case. What I appreciated most was his knowledge surrounding the ever increas...ingly complicated DUI/DWAI laws, his patience with my constant questions, and his ability to answer every question promptly and keep me in the loop during the entire process. I was very overwhelmed at the beginning of the legal process and Mr. Lancaster did an excellent job easing the stress and anxiety of all of the pre-trial hearings, DMV hearing and DMV appeals. He worked very diligently and hard and as a result my case was plead down to a non-alcohol related offense, I can't thank him enough! I would not have wanted another lawyer, he does an excellent job and I would recommend him to anyone in the event they have an alcohol related driving citation.

Professional, knowledgable, and honest

I never used to even think of using attorneys for any sort of traffic incident. I figured I would go through the regular system, take any plea bargain offered, waste 1/2 to a full day at a courthouse, and be on my way. Mr. Lancaster has handled two of my major traffic incidents, and completely and ...totally exceeded my expectations in representing me in court. For one of the court dates, I didn't even have to show up! Thank you Mr. Lancaster!
