Bill Barnwell is the only lawyer I trust with my life. I had my third probation violation in Oakland County on an OWI charge and he worked his magic by making sure I walked out of there with only minimal changes to my probation guidlines. I have needed Bill's assistance more than once and each and every time I thought I was going to jail, I was able to go home that day thanks to Bill.

When I hired Mr. Barnwell, it was my first time getting into legal trouble and I was completely lost. He assured me everything would work out and give me the best outcome possible. I’m happy with the results and I recommend him highly. He is very professional and will take time with your case and make you not feel like “just another client.”

I would like to thank Mr. Barnwell for fighting for me. I presented a case to him that wasn't easy. Unfortunately it was my second offense with a DUI. I was scared and full of emotions. Mr. Barnwell was always there to answer any questions I had and responded in a timely fashion. He is NOT your typical attorney that isn't available after 5pm and was always PREPARED and ON TIME. He was encouraging and supportive every step of the way.  I'm BEYOND HAPPY with the outcome from my case. With so many options for attorney's you won't go wrong selecting Mr. Barnwell to represent you and your legal problems.  He stands above the rest with his dedication, work ethic and compassion.

Amazing experience from beginning to end. Having never been in any legal trouble, I had a lot of questions. Bill made sure to keep me updated through every step, I never once had to wonder on what was happening. This was a big relief. Everything ended up better than I ever could've expected!

I have nothing but amazing things to say about Mr. Barnwell. From the very first interaction when he called me back from his personal number, on a Saturday, from Florida, I knew that this was someone who would go above and beyond for me and he definitely didn’t disappoint. I had numerous outstanding cases spanning over the course of 8 years-all of which had possible jail time attached to them. Mr. Barnwell was able to not only keep me out of jail, but even had a few of those charges dismissed altogether. For the first time in almost a decade, I am free to carry on with my life without the weight of my past hanging over me and I have him to thank for that. The time and effort he put into my case truly changed the course of my future and I will forever be grateful.
