Mr Richard Barron

Richard Barron was recommended to us by a friend and we could not have picked a better attorney. He helped with our daughter’s estate after she passed away suddenly. Very understanding and knowledgeable. What was a very difficult time for us he minimized it as much as possible. He communicated in... a way that we would understand and was very attentive. What could have taken 2-3 years of court dates and such ended in about 1 ½ years. With all that said I would recommend him (and have) to others.

Proficient

This was my first experience with a lawyer and the Legal system as a whole. Richard Barron was highly communicative. Regardless on which way the case could go, Richard is attentive, straight forward and very supportive. Richard was successful in this case and much aware of how tuff this experience wo...uld be for me.

Living Trust Litigation matter

We hired Richard Barron to assist us on a matter involving a dispute among trustees of a living trust. Richard immediately recognized the issues and came up with a game plan to resolve the matter. The other party had a lawyer who prepared pleadings filled with falsehoods. Mr. Barron nailed the other ...side during deposition getting them to admit that they had not even read the declaration and pleadings prepared by their lawyer, catching that other lawyer red faced as his lies were found out. The other lawyer and his clients conceded the matter and the trust issues were resolved in our favor. I highly recommend Mr. Barron. He is thorough, complete, extremely knowledgeable and practical, as well as an exceptional strategist during deposition and litigation. He knows how to handle opposing attorneys and keep matters from needlessly escalating, saving his clients substantial sums.

Mr. Barron has been our primary attorney for trusts and conservatorships involving probate matters for our clients. He is exceptionally knowledgeable, professional, ethical and responsive in all matters. Our firm has peace of mind knowing that he is there to protect our actions and advise us in any... matters brought to him for review, or matters he feels it would be important for us to be aware of or consider. He not only puts our interests first but as importantly he looks out for our clients best interests.

Unknown lawyer | Sep 18

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I have had the benefit of working with Mr. Barron from every angle—as opposing counsel, alongside him as co‑counsel, and as a client for matters on which I retained his services. Each time, he was the same lawyer: formidable, fair, professional, and solution‑oriented. He is clearly very knowledgeable about the law, and he treats everyone with respect and candor. As a relatively young attorney, I have strived to learn from his example. I recommend Mr. Barron without reservation."
