Considering bankruptcy can carry so many emotions. However, after my initial conversation with Donna, I was encouraged that there was hope for a new beginning ahead. Both John and Donna provide detailed explanations of what to expect throughout the process and were diligent and timely in their preparation. I am very thankful to have had their expertise walk me through a very challenging time in my life.

I filed for custody of my daughter in 2014. I was granted a fair outcome. I then filed for a modification in 2018. I knew this would be in my daughters best interest, however I did not know it would have taken everything I had to continue the fight until the end. Barrett Legal exceeded my expectations. I got everything I wanted both times. Extremely professional, knowledgeable, kind, and direct. If you ever find yourself needing an Attorney for any reason, I highly recommend contacting Barrett Legal to represent yourself.

John and his paralegal Donna took on my divorce case after my first lawyer didn't advise me sufficiently. They quickly reviewed all of the material and represented me fairly. Despite that I was now living out of state and had to travel back to Georgia for the hearing, I felt that their support made the entire process smooth.

Mr. John Barrett is honest to god the best lawyer in Cobb County. My family and I hired him over a drug case that I had last year involving 5 felonies. I was looking at some serious time in jail with the amount of charges that I possessed. Mr. Barrett was able to get me out of spending even a single day in jail. I was very fortunate that he was able to give me a second chance in life. If I was to chose another lawyer I would definitely not have gotten the results that Mr. Barrett produced. I ended up with 3-5 years probation, nothing staying permanently on my record, no community service hours, and no jail time. This was the best results that we could have ever gotten. He has a lot of connections and knows the right people to talk to. If I was to ever get in any sort of trouble in the future, praying to god I won’t, I would 100% hire Mr. Barrett yet again. Don’t waste your time with any other lawyer, John Barrett produces the results that you are looking for! I sincerely thank you Mr. Barrett!

I retained this attorney to settle an uncontested divorce. I feel the representation was great, fair priced, and fully open and transparent. I would recommend Mr. Barrett, he’s a proper southern gentleman lawyer. Exactly what I needed to help me navigate the divorce proceedings. His paralegal, Donna, was fantastic, and my main point of contact throughout the process. Great people, caring, and efficient.

How do you get a divorce from an acrimonious partner? You retain John. I had a simple divorce case made ridiculously difficult by my ex, that I went through two lawyers before John. A reasonable terms of agreement could not be reached for 34 months. I cannot talk about John without mentioning his amazing para-legal Donna. This team will set your expectation and deliver. You want them on your side. Retain John, you'll be glad you did.

I came across Mr. Barrett's law practice while searching the internet. I had spoken with 2-3 other law firms but ruled them out for various reasons from too expensive to not making a good first impression when I first spoke with a office representative. Donna with Mr. Barrett's office was very helpful and professional from my first call and all thru out the divorce process which took about 2 yrs because even though my wife filed for the divorce, did not co-operate with the process. Mr. Barrett got the settlement that was good for me and I trust I won't need his services again, but if I do I'm calling Barrett Legal.
