Excellent Lawyer, Definitely Recommend

I got arrested because I was driving recklessly. Police found drugs and paraphanilia in my car. I had 5 charges against me, two of which were felonies. I was facing 5 years in prison. Thanks to Barry making a plea deal, the only thing I was convinced of was a DUI, no time in jail. I would 100% recomm...end Barry to anyone dealing with legal issues. He's an excellent lawyer. He really knows what he's doing. And he's also a really good person.

Case closed

I got a DUI last year and found that Barry sooalo was the attorney i wanted to represent me because his experience with dealing with similar cases like mine and the reviews that I ve looked at I didn't hesitate to call and hire him. One year later my case was dismissed and now I'm able to work again ...being that I am a commercial driver I'm thankful for Barry's help and I'm very satisfied with the outcome. I'd highly recommend him to represent anyone who has a DUI.

.167 DUI case

Barry was able to get my DUI charge dismissed in court, very difficult case but he never let up on the objectives we agreed upon. I would definitely refer a Barry for anyone dealing with a DUI case.

Barry is the go to guy!!

Barry is very good at what he does. He made sure I understood everything that was happening. Bottom line, I came out a winner. DUI? Nope!!

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
