I came to Me. Barrera after several recommendations from other paralegals whom stated he was a good well known aggressive attorney. Which is not what I had a privilege to witness. When I hired Mr. Barrera he came off very strong which I was okay with due to my delicate case. The first time I called his office it was easy getting a one on one with him and he was able to see me right away, but once contracts were signed and fees were paid I was not able to meet with him to discuss my case. I made several attempts to go into his office so we could go over my case and he was never available. When he would call me and we would go over my case through the phone I would ask what his method would be to win my case or make the attempt to do so and none of that was applied during court when going up against the judge. I was so disappointed in my representation and signed papers that were not explained to me well despite my emotional distress due to my sensitive case. He may have been a great attorney once upon a time but this is no longer the case. I had to waste money, time, and most importantly almost lost someone so dear to me had i kept him as my representative. I hope this will help other families make a better decision when looking for someone to have as guidance especially during such delicate matters.

Do not recommend this attorney. He did not prepare for my case and did not defend it. Does not communicate well.

Terrible service. I went to the first appointment and paid for it. The service is very slow. I don't recommend it.
Owner response
I am sorry you feel that way. From the moment that you began the consult, I believe that you were not interested in knowing all relevant law applicable to your current case as I tried to tell you. I believe that a lawyer has the duty to know the law and inform the client how it applies to his/her case and that is why I was asking so much of your history so that I would know what was relevant; you were only interested in telling me how disgruntled you were with your ex-husband's current behavior.<br>I believe that you have been given erroneous legal advice before you came to my office as it applies to your history and current circumstances; you were not interested in my advice. I hope that whoever you seek out as counsel is as knowledgeable as I believe that I am. I don't and I never will provide legal services to a potential client who does not wish to know the applicable law and how I can help, and not just wishes to hear what he/she wants to hear from a lawyer. Good luck with your pending cases and I hope that you find a relevant family law attorney. Regards.

Terrible lawyer, doesn't defend you at all. I wouldn't recommend him to anyone. First, he makes you see things positively and says you're going to win, and then he abandons you. All he cares about is getting paid. I thought he was a trustworthy and professional person. What a disappointment! I hope he doesn't scam more people.

He is representing me on a custody/ child support case. My case is ongoing but my son is home with me. Mr. Barrera has done everything he said so far and is always on time. Most important he has been honest and upfront.
