“Working with Barry was probably the best money that I could have spent. I ended up getting pulled over three times for DUI in a very short period of time. Barry was able to get one of them dropped, and able to get me sentences, restitution, and fines that were reasonable. The last time that I was pulled over, I was at a local suburb police department and called Barry at 3am in the morning. He came over and was able to get them to release me without having to post bond. Barry was very meticulous in ensuring that I made it to all of my appointments and hearings, even picking me up and giving me a ride. Barry, went well over and above to be my attorney. I would recommend him without any hesitation.”
