From start to finish, working with Bart was a pleasure. I found him to be thoughtful regarding the individual details of my case and didn’t feel like I was just another client despite how busy he is. He really does a good job at formulating a strategy and had multiple back up plans for my case. I’ve read that many lawyers will not go to trial for certain violations such as DUI’s but Bart isn’t one of those. He is willing to do whatever it takes to get the best resolution for your case even if the route there isn’t the most convenient. He also charges a fair rate when you compare him to other criminal defense lawyers. Ultimately, it’s a very fair deal for the quality of representation you get from him. His secretaries are also kind and friendly. I recommend him highly.

Bart did a phenomenal job with my case. I had a DUI (less safe). Not only was Bart able to get the charge dropped down to reckless driving, he was able to negotiate a deal where I only had to pay a fine and not have to be on probation and I was able to keep my license throughout the whole ordeal. Bart had the most competitive pricing and was totally worth it!

Having Bart Barnwell as my lawyer made all the difference . He gave me great counsel and was honest, upfront and very patient with me from the very beginning.. His staff was very pleasant, any time i called the office they were more than helpful.. Bart also had a great relationship with the judge in my case, which gave me some much needed confidence to stay positive. More importantly, he treated me as a friend and not so much a client. He definitely did a great job in all aspects of my case and I am more than pleased with my results. I don’t ever want to see him again under the same circumstances, but I definitely know who to call if I’m ever in need of representation.

I wish there was a sixth star i could give to rate Mr. Barnwell! He was personable and accessible by phone, email and text for all of my questions. He was willing to take my case when other lawyers in the area refused because they did not think that it was winnable. Mr. Barnwell pulled through and won for me! I had contacted the communications agency that fields business calls for Mr. Barnwell, that also services other law firms in the area too. The young lady that answered the phone advised me that I “have a very good and responsive lawyer.” She stated that she frequently receives calls from frustrated defendants that had paid for the services of OTHER lawyers in the area that flat-out didn’t show up for court, and now won’t return the defendants’ calls. Again, this is AFTER they’ve been paid! She said that she has NEVER received a complaint regarding Mr. Barnwell. This is a young lady that regularly deals with legal teams in the area, and she is very impressed with Mr. Barnwell as a lawyer that stands out above the rest. And I was too!
