I retained Mr. Barber for a legal matter where I was facing numerous criminal charges. I was going up against 8 criminal charges including 3 felonies some of the charges could’ve resulted in a lengthy prison sentence. After months of litigating with the prosecution he was able to get me a plea deal for 4 charges and no prison time.
I would highly recommend Mr. Barber to anyone facing legal troubles.

While driving through DE with an out-of-state license plate, I unfortunately got pulled over by a state trooper and was handed a traffic citation that required a court appearance. I called Mr. Barber because I liked his website - no flashy videos, just a personal narrative describing his military service (which impressed me) as well as his legal career. I left a voicemail and my call was returned a few minutes later by Mr. Barber himself - not his paralegal, not his secretary, not his filing clerk. After thoroughly going over the facts and charges listed on the citation, Mr. Barber explained what his strategy would be if I were to retain him, what his flat fee would be, and answered all of my questions. He also asked me how I discovered him and when I told him that the words on his website seemed so genuine that they set him apart from the crowd, he told me that indeed, he had written it all himself - not a marketing company.
I breathed a sigh of relief after hiring Mr. Barber because I trusted that his prior experience as a prosecutor and his current relationships with prosecutors would help me achieve a better result than I would have achieved on my own and I was 100% right. With his representation, I ended up with the best possible result. No points on my drivers' record!
I'm a lawyer myself (not in the criminal courts, they're another world) so I know there's a vast difference between lawyers who just go through the motions and exceptional lawyers like Mr. Barber that are a step above the rest. So trust me when I say that if you find the State of DE coming after you for any reason, don't punish yourself. Do yourself a solid and call Mr. Barber right away. You will be so grateful that you did:)
