Incredible perseverance and attention to detail

Su represented me as my defense in an extremely difficult and high stakes 2.5-year case that ended in trial. Plaintiff, plaintiffs counsel and plaintiffs peers conspired to embellish and fabricate “new facts” for a favorable outcome and Su was able to expose Plaintiffs embellishments and craft an i...mpressive argument around conduct and credibility that ultimately won over the jury with $0 granted to the plaintiff! On top of this, Su took my case extremely personally as if it was her being sued personally taking on a full office of plaintiffs counsel seemingly with ease. I would now consider a good friend and feel sorry for anyone with the misfortune of competing against her in the future.

The BEST

I’m so thankful to Ms. Barry, she is the BEST attorney and did a fantastic job handling all aspects of my case. I had a medical injury case that was traumatic and almost resulted in my death. Ms. Barry made the legal process straight forward and was a pleasure to work with. She obtained justice fo...r me. Prior to meeting Ms. Barry I felt beaten down and so intimidated by my opponent that I was weary of pursuing legal action. After meeting Ms Barry, her intelligence, integrity, and honesty left me confident and ready to pursue legal action. Throughout the legal process, I was constantly impressed with Ms. Barry’s professionalism, tenacity, strength and grace under pressure. Ms. Barry is incredibly intelligent, hardworking and very thorough. I’m forever grateful to her, she motivated me to not give up and she won a case that other lawyers were too intimidated to take on. Ms. Barry is the BEST!

Fantastic Lawyer

Su and her firm were very efficient in taking care of my bicycle injury suite. She was prompt in getting back to me and I know that I would not have been satisfied and confident in my result had I not used her firm. I would absolutely go back to her firm again in the future.

Contractor/Warranty dispute

I hired Su Barry to represent me in a dispute between me (contractor) and a client about a commercial project I did for them. They were threatening to sue me for a lot of money when I hired Su. I communicated to her the facts of the case and she communicated with my past client. Su brought in outs...ide experts in the field to inspect the work completed, which she compared with the contracts that had been agreed upon. She was able to show that the majority of the liability in this matter was with the client and not with my company. She was very professional and communicated with me throughout the process the likely and possible outcomes of each step we took. Su recommended we offer to settle out of court for a minuscule amount. She saved my business with her expertise and experience. Su showed me that she stands up for what is right and that she has the knowledge and skills to clearly communicate to both sides of a dispute the facts of the case. I will recommend her to family/friends as well as business associates who may be in need of representation.

c

Su Barry has represented me in a few cases over the past 10 years including personal injury, insurance litigation, and most recently a contract dispute. As a business owner, it was very helpful to have an attorney that was so organized which kept me ahead of any deadlines. Su has always been i...nformative about all of my options and the risks involved in each situation. Su was able to produce positive outcomes in each of my cases avoiding costly litigation even recovering her legal fees from the opposing side. I have and will continue to refer people to her for any legal advice or services.
