Review Manuel Barba

EXPERT DUI DEFENSE ATTORNEY

Posted by

Mr. Barba is an amazing attorney. I’ve had previous attorneys in Los Angeles represent me but they do not compare to the work ethic and dedication Attorney Manuel Barba has for his clients. Mr. Barba, along with his team, provided me with a sense of comfort from the moment I decided to hire him to represent me. I primarily chose Mr. Barba because of his Forensic Scientist-Lawyer background and was able to see firsthand his experience and how knowledgeable and effective he is in trial because of that. The trial lasted a little over two weeks and could not have gotten through it without Mr. Barba. He’s an expert in DUI defense. He’s able to see things in the case that I did not even think were possible. He is highly knowledgeable in the analysis of blood that it puts the DA’s experts to shame. You know you have a great attorney representing you when even the DA compliments his work. Mr. Barba’s representation and defense exceeded my expectations as he relentlessly fought for me in court. The trial resulted in a hung jury. I thank him for all his guidance and support and would highly recommend him to anyone in need of DUI defense.

Mr. Barba is the real deal

Posted by

After reading about Mr. Barba’s successful representation of DUI cases, I decided to proceed with his services. I’d like to thank Mr. Barba for saving my future and keeping me away from serving jail time. I was facing a very serious and difficult DUI felony with violation of probation from a previous DUI. Mr. Barba fought aggressively and got every detail of evidence he could to defend me. He was able to get me a great deal. He was able to dismiss all felony DUI charges and settling it for a straight "wet reckless." I can’t ask for anything better after facing a potential state prison sentence. Thank you Mr. Barba I truly appreciate your time and dedication towards my case. The BEST on the field of DUI defense.

Worth the Money!

Posted by

Mr. Barba represented me in a DUI case that lasted over 2 years. He was highly recommended to me by a former CHP officer. He was very attentive to the small details in the handling of the case. The case went to trial and Mr. Barba presented the defense with the utmost diligence and confidence. He walked me through every phase of how a trial works beforehand and explained our defense and the reason why the arrest should be contested. One thing I really appreciated was that he was not over-confident. He was not eagerly optimistic or dreadfully pessimistic. Mr. Barba always talked to me objectively about the facts of the case and laid out the plan. I was acquitted of all charges.

Manual Barba "the best"

Posted by

Mr. Barba was a great no nonsense attorney, he always told me the truth about everything that I was facing, he never gave me false hope but he was always on top of my case advising me what was happening, what to expect and when to appear and not appear. He had one of my cases reduced down and is still working diligentmy on the other, as of yet the DA hasn't filed.

A DUI Attorney You Want on YOUR Side!

Posted by

Mr. Barba defended me in a DUI trial to disprove a 0.3 BAC level AND SUCCEEDED. His detailed knowledge and team of forensic experts he works with in the sobriety field test and the blood alcohol testing saved me from having a devastating record. Both key evidence were out the window by the end of the trial. Instead, after an incident-free probation, I'll be in a position to expunge the incident from my record. Throughout the 8-day trial I was so relieved to have Mr. Barba, an attorney so well-versed in every aspect of DUI, defending me. If you've stumbled on Mr. Barba's website while looking for help with your DUI arrest like I did, your search is over. Mr. Barba's professional help is sure to give some relief from the DUI nightmare you have.

Manuel Barba's response: This case is yet another example of an incorrect analysis of the blood sample by the crime lab. The process of gas chromatography is not a precise science and must be done correctly if the results are to be accurate and reliable.

amazing DUI Lawyer

Posted by

If you're looking for an experienced and knowledgeable DUI attorney, look no further than Mr. Barba. He handled my case which ended up lasting over 2 years. He looked over my case with a fine tooth comb and discovered many flaws that I would have never picked up on. We decided to go to trial which ended up lasting over a week. In trial Mr. Barba fought hard and brought the absolute best expert witnesses in to testify on my behalf. He was able to completely discredit the arresting officer and get my first count a NOT GUILTY verdict. His witness who spoke about the problems with my blood sample was amazing, and had some of the jury members shaking their heads at the DA. In the end, I was given a not guilty verdict on the first count (a first time DUI has 2 separate counts), and a hung jury on the second count. Of course the DA wanted to retry my case to save her bruised ego, but Mr. Barba and his team was able to talk her down into giving me a plea bargain of a wet reckless!! Overall, I would highly recommend hiring Mr. Barba if you ever find yourself in the unfortunate situation of a DUI. He will find every possible flaw with your case and use that to get you a lesser sentence or even a full dismissal. My only critique would be that I would have preferred more communication from the office. I would often have to call to inquire what happened at a court date that I didn't need to attend. The office does send letters after each court date with the pertinent information, but an email or phone call would be preferred to get the information right away so I don't have to wait 2-5 days for my letter to come in to see when my next court date will be. Overall - HIGHLY RECOMMEND

Attorney & Scientist

Posted by

Attorney Manuel Barba has not only excellent legal skills but a full understanding of the science related to the toxicology and forensics necessary to argue competently for a defendant with DUI charges. He is calm and methodical when working thoroughly to challenge the DA's data and makes it easy for the jury to understand and comprehend the nuances of breath and blood results, how they were obtained, tested and interpreted. His strong presentation of the laws, rights of the defendant to good science and how the testing lab failed to meet those requirements resulted in a jury that was engaged in really questioning the validity of the numbers. Attorney Barba fights with two swords- legal and scientific.

Attorney Barba is an experienced trial advocate. He has the necessary reputation, knowledge, experience and guts needed to defend those accused of a crime. He has earned a national reputation for his years of successful advocacy. Most of all, I trust him. I know you will too.

Mr. Barba is one of the new breeds of lawyers known as the lawyer-scientist. When defending a person accused of driving under the influence it is imperative that the lawyer have a deep understanding of the science behind blood and breath testing. Very few lawyers spend the time necessary to be a lawyer-scientist. Mr. Barba has and does. You are in good hands with Mr. Barba representing you on an alcohol related charge.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

Manuel Barba was a co-instructor for my NHTSA Standardized Field Sobriety Testing (SFST) Course.
