Former client

Jeffrey Barth promised me that my ex husband would pay my legal fees. He lied!!!! I ended up paying my own attorney costs to fight my ex over custody of our children. barth is a liar and a horrible attorney.

I have practiced law for over 40 years. I have never promised a client that the other party would pay their fees. In most cases each party is responsible for his/her own attorney fees. In some cases (mostly dissolution) where one party works and the other party is not employed, or when one spouse earns more money than the other spouse, the Court will award temporary fees or fees upon entry of a final order. I am not a liar. I am a good, honest attorney who works hard and gets good results for my clients. JLB

Posted by Jonathan S. | September 30, 2015 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Highly recommended. Extremely honest and fair. Great advice and service.

I found Jeff through this website and am so glad that I did. I wanted someone with experience and perspective, and Jeff has both of those. Jeff is a truly honest lawyer. Divorce is a difficult and trying time, and Jeff was extremely helpful in guiding me through the process. Jeff will steer you... away from ill conceived plans to fight it out in court. Guide you to understand where you have control or risk, and where you just need to follow the process. Very good at explaining the facts of the divorce process. He is too experienced and has too much integrity to steer you down a path of excessive legal fees. He helped my keep my divorce civil and cost effective. To be somewhat balanced, I would say that Jeff is old school. He isn't constantly on a smartphone, so don't expect him to return emails immediately. But he always delivered when I needed him to.
