I hired Barry Zimmerman after I was arrested for something I absolutely did not do. I was very scared as a African American in the Placer county area. Everything I have worked hard for was hanging in the balance. I had a consultation with Barry who put my mind at ease and told me what to expect.
He is not the type to hold your hand. He is not going to call or communicate with you unless he has a reason to. No news is good news with Barry. Just let him work. He knows his way around!!! He saved my family and my life. I can never repay the superb representation he gave me.

I hired Barry to handle my 88-yr. old father's medical bills after he was struck by an intoxicated driver while walking across the street to get his mail. It was a relief not to worry about dealing with the insurance companies during a very stressful time for our family. I felt like I was in good hands. He always responded quickly to my calls and was sympathetic to our situation. We were pleased he was able to get the maximum benefit from my father's insurance company.
For over 30 years I have been helping individuals with their legal problems. I have recovered millions of dollars on behalf of individuals injured in accidents including car accidents, truck accidents, motorcycle accidents, dangerous conditions of property, medical negligence, wrongful death, elder abuse, dog bites, and insurance disputes. I opened my law firm in 1994. If you have been injured in an accident, contact my office for a free initial consultation.

While facing an extremely complicated criminal case Mr. Zimmerman zealously defended me with tact, discretion and professionalism. I couldn't be happier with his expert services.

Professional Excellence
Our son was unfortunately charged with three drug related felonies. Barry gave us realistic direction and wise counsel. He was attentive and reliable in his defense and communication with the DA. We were happy when all charges were dismissed in the interest of justice. We have the utmost respect and appreciation for Barry's professional excellence.

Highly Professional
Barry represented me recently with a difficult legal matter. Throughout the process, from arrest to case resolution, he was thoughtful, knowledgeable, respectful and highly professional. He always kept me up to date of my legal situation, and responded to my inquiries /concerns quickly. Overall, Barry far exceeded my expectations for any attorney, and I'm thankful to have had his representation.

A very successful experience
I retained Mr. Zimmerman to represent me in a matter that concerned several difficult legal issues involving violations of the vehicle code. As a result of his handling of my case, and the result he achieved for me, I am very pleased to write this recommendation.
From the beginning Mr. Zimmerman explained the issues the case involved in a way that was clear and understandable, as well as what the possible outcomes could be. Throughout the various stages of the proceedings he kept me fully informed and advised by letter, telephone and e-mails regarding the status of the case, and always promptly answered whatever questions or concerns I had.
From the beginning his skill and knowledge was obvious and gave me continued reassurance that there would be a successful outcome in my case. In the end, Mr. Zimmerman did achieve an excellent result in my case.
Based on my experience Mr. Zimmerman is an excellent lawyer and I give him my unqualified recommendation

Expungement from Mr. Zimmerman
Barry helped me expunge a DUI/Reckless driving from my record in Placer Co. He was extremely professional in court and had all his bases covered. Very professional and great at what he does. I would absolulty reccomend him to anyone. I will add he is a little short on the friendliness, and his communication is limited to just the facts which can be a little intimidating to some. But, Barry is an absolutle professional and being a "people" person isn't necessarly his job. Being a great lawyer is his job and he is very good at it.
