My son had a very difficult case that was almost impossible to seal. I cannot express how grateful I am to Veronica Therese Barton, She was very detailed, dedicated, and truly caring with my son's case. Her knowledge and expertise helped through a very difficult case. I had the best service and woul...d recommend Veronica to anyone that is need of an excellent lawyer. Thank you so much Veronica Therese.

Thank you so much, Rosa! Especially considering that the DA would not give us a plea deal any lower than 25 to life, it was one of the absolutely best moments of my legal career to hear that "not guilty" verdict! I'm so happy for you and your family and wish you all the best in the future.

Avvo Rating

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.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • 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.
