Top notch lawyer

Barry was my legal counsel for a second DUI case. I was referred to him by a mutual friend. I felt confident with him when we had our initial consultation. He explained to me the outcomes of my case and what he would argue on my behalf after I had disclosed to him my legal situation. Communicatio...n with Barry has always been a top priority throughout the process. He keeps you informed after each court proceedings. I am so thankfully I had Barry for my legal representation for this matter and cannot be anymore elated with the outcome after a lengthy legal battle. Please do yourself a service and hire this man as your legal counsel, he has earned my trust as a reputable and dependable lawyer that will work hard in getting the results you want.

Charged with DUI

When I needed council the most, Mr. Lancaster met me with genuine care and compassion, making me feel at ease, almost immediately like a friend. Mr. Lancaster consistently adhered to ethical principles that reflected the highest personal standards and individual behavior. He effectively communicate...d my options and displayed an unwavering sense of commitment making me feel that I had top priority. Mr. Lancaster demonstrated a high level of legal understanding and was able to navigate and lay out all potential scenarios. Mr. Lancaster displayed confidence and professionalism when addressing the court and its staff; he communicated my case with ease and natural style and his responses where always tactful and appropriate in every situation. The relation ships he built with the members of the court were evident and he navigated my position with great diplomacy achieving desired results. I wish I could have met Mr. Lancaster under better circumstances but am blessed nonetheless for having him represent my case.

Defense Attorney

I was 1600 miles from Denver in S. Carolina when I was served with a temporary restraining order from my ex-wife.. It was on the evening of Friday the 13th.. I began researching attorneys in the Denver area who were skilled in such defense, and on Saturday morning, I desperately tried to contact a ...few that seemed to be good candidates. Above all else I knew I was innocent, but moreover, I knew that I could not afford to lose - my job requires a very clean background.. Long story short, I chose Barry Lancaster, and although he was not the cheapest, even before I had retained/hired him, he asked the best questions and was much quicker at gathering information. This was very important because I was due in court, in only 5 days! We worked together at such a long distance and 2 hr difference in time zones to dig through yrs worth of data, to make an airtight case. When the hearing took place, Barry coached me on courtroom edicate so that I wouldn't ruin my own strong position. My accuser had issued this order back on 4/29, but I was not served until 5/13; and yet on 5/19 I had secured council, and she had not. The judge, by the rules he is governed by, was going to grant an continuance - which would have been very costly once more to take off from work and travel across the country, not to mention additional attorney services. Barry asked the judge for a recess, and during this time, met privately with my accuser, explaining the costs involved and the airtight case he had. He then gave her an 'out' - drop all charges and have the case dismissed, or be prepared to lose & be held responsible for all bills associated with these false accusations. She took the 'out' and the case was dismissed. Of course, I then am left with paying for proving my innocence - but there is no doubt that had I not gotten council, and good council - namely Barry Lancaster, this may have cost me so much more - even my very livelihood! Bottom line: very professional and thorough; very insightful and personable.
