I hired Barrie for my son. He was falsely accused of very serious charges. He had a 25,000 bail and I wasn't able to get bail. He was in jail for a week! I hired Barrie. She was able to get him out on a no money bail. She worked really hard on his case!! She was also able to get all charges withdrawn!!! If you need a lawyer I would recommend her!! She will fight hard for you until she gets results!! Thank you so much Barrie for all your hard work!!!

I can't speak highly enough about Barrie. The first time I spoke with her I hired her-and it was the best decision I could have made. She really listened, was always available to discuss and clearly explained all legal aspects. She's extremely knowledgeable, compassionate and worked tirelessly for me. The case concluded with charges withdrawn! I would highly recommend her in a heartbeat to anyone in need of a wonderful defense attorney!

Barrie did everything she could to help me, she didnt give up until she and I were happy with the sentencing. Never once have I ever had to deal with any type of law issue, but Barrie explained it all to me and did an excellent job! Always a step ahead and goes above and beyond! Thank you again Barrie!

Barrie was able to get me into a program where I would have the opportunity to clean my record. She explained everything with detail to me so that I could understand the process and actions her and I had to do. 10/10 would recommend if anyone needs a great lawyer.

Attorney Wellener navigates the complex legal machinery expertly and effortlessly. She possesses a calming demeanor and a confidence that is reassuring to even the most nervous of clients (like myself). Anyone in the unfortunate position of needed a criminal defense attorney should call Barrie Wellener!!

I was facing mandatory jail time or house arrest and Ms. Wellener got the charge dropped to a lesser charge, where as I just got a fine. That the as the best case scenario. In and out in 5 minutes.

I am by no means a barracks lawyer or anything like that so I won't pretend to know how the legal system works. All I know is I was looking down the barrel of 3 charges with a penalty of $5000+ and a year in county. Barrie carved that out and at the hearing I was charged with only two charges, landing me only a year probation and a $100 fine -no folks, that's not a typo. Hundred bucks. Before I called, I was plagued by anxiety and sleepless nights post-arrest. But between Dennis breaking it down to me on the phone and Barrie telling me exactly how the proceedings would happen, I felt no more fear. Barrie was professional, kept me informed and inspired confidence. Never once did I feel judged or belittled. If you're in a legal bind and a bit embarrassed? Give her a shout.
