Promises Everything. Actually Does NOTHING

This attorney has only spoken to myself in pursuit of money and more money. I have caught him in numerous lies. He is the rudest person (so rude that other persons in court halls told me to fire him). He has never, not once, returned a text, email or Phone call. You do not need an attorney for a DU...I. What a waste if money. Its a mandatory sentence. Whether you go alone or with any attorney. Sentence us the same. If I would have known ge was a DUI. attorney. I am sick. He has taken all of my money and not done a single thing. There is no worse attorney, than a rude attorney who cares nothing for you except how much money he can get. I am appealing to the California State Bar Association. Thank God, many other attorneys and family have seen his behavior and decided it is the worst of the worst. I will get all monies refunded for the new attorney.

Save yourself a lot hassle and hire Barry Hammond!

Barry Hammond was referred to me by the San Fernando Valley Bar Association. In our first meeting, Barry told me he was going to talk to the Sheriff Deputy in order to get the charge dropped. I was really impressed because he did exactly what he told he was going to do. To all of you who need a lawy...er, Barry is the man! He is an expert at what he does. His way of handling court procedures is outstanding! Save yourself a lot hassle and hire Barry Hammond!

I wanted to thank you for getting my DUI reduced and I also thank you for reducing my alcohol program.

I wanted to thank you for getting my DUI reduced and I also want to thank you for reducing my alcohol program from 9 months to 3! You saved me a ton of money and also saved my drivers license. If I ever have a friend or know someone in trouble you are definitely going to be in my thoughts. I really a...ppreciate it Barry! Really!

All I can say is thank you. I can honestly say I have never been more relieved in my life.

I was recommended to Mr. Hammond by the San Fernando Bar Association. I was accused of stealing from work. I was fired and arrested at the same time, I later found out once I had got out of jail that my employer was accusing me of stealing an excess amount of what I could of possibility of stolen! He... was lying and trying to get my charges from a misdemeanor to a felony. I was terrified and did not know what to do. Long came recommended Barry and he took care of all my problems. He worked with the detective on my case, the district attorney and the owner of the company I worked for and solved everything! We later came with a reasonable amount of missing items and settled everything out of court. I never got charged with a felony and never even went to court! My case was dropped and I am now employed somewhere else. All I can say is thank you, thank you, thank you. I can honestly say I have never been more relieved in my life.

Mr. Hammond is a savior!

I am pleased to say that Mr. Hammond is a savior! My 23 year old daughter got into a fight with her boyfriend (typical)! The neighbors called the police arrested her and sent her straight to jail and charged with felony domestic violence! We were shocked, aggravated and scared! I did not want my daug...hter in jail nor with a felony on her record. I was recommended an attorney, Mr. Hammond that reduced the charge to a misdemeanor before my daughter even went to her first court date! He had called the detective gave her story and the charge was reduced! Later within a couple of months he handled the charge informally and my daughter was dropped of all charges! I honestly never thought this was going to happen! I can not thank Mr. Hammond enough and for this reason I have to write this letter to explain my gratitude!
