Thank you all for you hard work and dedication.Purple Rose Clothing Line ★★★★★ Micheal and staff have gone above and beyond my expectations several times. I had been referred to several other law firms by trusted legal counsel. After a few inquiries with other firms, I had not been able to decide on who to retain. I was served on a major holiday and had no idea what my rights or options were to protect myself. I spoke with Carson (who answers every single email, phone call, and is a great listener and makes you feal heard) Carson assured me that my case would be handled with care. Micheal took the time to call me while enjoying his holiday with his family to put me at ease. I’m a mother who was afraid that my natural concerns were being perceived as “emotional” or “bitter”. Micheal let me not only know that I had rights, but I was well within my rights and had reasonable requests. This was a long ongoing process that took well over a year. Micheal never dropped the ball and showed up advocating for me each step of the way. Not only were my concerns fully addressed, but Micheal put in several provisions to protect me and my child in the future. He made sure my child’s best interest was at the forefront of every litigation. He predicted that some of the issues I had experienced would persist, I was hopeful that things would mellow out. Unfortunately, Micheal was correct, and things have persisted. He is now preparing to represent me further. This case has been in my favor from day one due to Micheal’s expertise and familiarity with the family laws pertaining to my situation. He has given me confidence as a parent that had been shaken by my circumstance. My son and I have rest assured knowing that I can advocate for my child and that the state will support his best needs. Thank you!Edd ★★★★★ I just had a simple battery case for Cobb county man I was nervous because you never know how bad things can get but that lawyer Michael d barber he showed up and showed out one of the best lawyer I ever came across 10/10 service I’m not going to jail today yall haaaa!!!!robert benson ★★★★★ Getting yourself in a legal pickle is NO FUN!

I would recommend them to anyone who needs help with criminal issues with the legal system.Ricky Perry ★★★★★ Mr.Barber was outstanding.. He represented me on a probation administrative hearing. He showed up early and showed out… He went in to my probation officer and told them his revolutionary strategy to get the case dismissed swiftly.. They felt his presence instantly! They were already convinced to not violate me before they called me in! Amazing work! Now he will get my case dismissed quick! Also Carson his secretary is amazing he is very professional, prompt and very communicative…Great job guys!! I would definitely recommend!!!Krystal Ames ★★★★★ This is my first time needing a lawyer (lawfirm), before they had helped me I was scared not knowing what to do. When I called and talked to my lawyers and explained my case they was very willing to help and give me different scenarios and outcomes, they are very grateful and accommodating. Whenever I needed to talk to my lawyer/firm they was there to answer any questions about my case. If you ever need a lawyer Michael D Barber & Associates is grade A+. Without them I wouldn't have had the outcome of my case I'm grateful and happy.Julie T ★★★★★ Michael and his staff are LOVELY. Carson, Lamar, and Kierra were super communicative, making sure I knew where to be and when, and giving me frequent status updates.Michael is so nice, and with his help, the process was much less stressful than it could have been. He is a very smart cookie, and I was grateful for his assistance.BROOKLYN WITCHER ★★★★★ I want to express my gratitude to Michael Barber and his team. I was wrongfully charged with a crime that I did not commit, and Michael and his associates fought tirelessly for my case, ultimately helping me achieve justice. When your freedom is at stake, there is no one I would trust more than Michael and his firm. I highly recommend them to anyone in need of defense against injustice.Brian Huertas ★★★★★ My names Brian huertas and Michael d barber was my lawyer, so if you care to read my whole comment you’ll know HOW GREAT this man is .

I had a two misdemeanor cases with a two count on one case and Brandon Rosenbloom got me be the best deal I could ask for no jail time thank god if you need a lawyer that’s official and your nervous about your case call Brandon M Rosenbloom he’ll get you right !!!! Thanks- EddAyce Mann ★★★★★ Attorney Micheal D. Barber is the best. This was my first time ever being in trouble with the law & I was so worried about my future but my case manager Lamar reassured me (but didn’t make any promises) that my attorney has my best interest & will do his best to help me be able to continue my life. My court date was this morning & he handled everything quickly I didn’t even have to stand before the judge & also gave me a better outcome of a dismissal instead of what the state initially offered. I can see why some people say their communication is bad, I felt the same way but I didn’t understand that attorneys only speak to you when you have a court date & that’s fine being that you are not their only client. That’s very minor compared to the professional & knowledgeable staff & attorneys. Their staff was always nice any time I called whether I was frustrated or not & didn’t mind giving me any updates or telling me politely each time if it wasn’t any. His staff also called to see how I felt after court knowing that I have been so worried throughout this process. Thats why I’m still giving them 5 stars because they show you they care & that’s something you want when you’re choosing an attorney to represent you. -C. MannMonica ★★★★★ 🥳🥳🥳Attorney Brandon M Rosenbloom you are the best in my book ! I can not thank you enough for how you handled my case, I was set up, & I was the victim and he understood that once I hired him. He took my case after I fired Jackie for playing in my face . Brandon understood his assignment and I am pleased with his work. He told me that everything was going to be okay. He looked at all my evidence and applied it to my case. I was due for a jury trial on 10/21/24 but before court started he told me that the case was dismissed 🙌🏾Thank you to the whole staff @ Michael D Barber Associates your the best . Now I can heal and have peace within my life.Cortez Alston ★★★★★ Great experience. Efficient and honest, helped make the best out of a bad scenario.Effie Hawkins ★★★★★ I would like to share my profound thanks and gratitude for the work on my Son's case. Michael Barber and his team were able to get his case dismissed and gave us all a peace of mind. We are out of state and they were able to work their magic for him. This case was very unfair and unjust to my Son, being that he was the victim it seems that the legal system was working against him, but Attorney Barber and Attorn Branden defend his case and was able to get it dismiss. Thank you again. Our prayers were truly answered. I recommend them to all the people whose voice aren't being heard for they will be that Voice of Victory for you.Thank youLucille King ★★★★★ Micheal D. Barber & associates were Phenomenal Mr. Rosenbloom was handling our case and did a phenomenal job handling my son’s case I would refer this Firm to anyone they will get the job doneOnika ★★★☆☆ As a new client, I need to express that my expectations for legal representation may be significantly higher than those of this law firm. During my search for legal counsel, I determined that this firm was my best option. Given their background as former prosecutors, I anticipated that their attorneys would have a good understanding of the strategies relevant to my case. I found the caseworker assigned to my situation to be thorough, patient, and an attentive listener, which helped build my confidence in navigating the complexities of my circumstances.However, I must acknowledge that my limited experience with court proceedings led me to expect representation from an attorney who would demonstrate compassion and provide clear explanations about the legal process and the subsequent steps, keeping me well-informed about my case.Approximately forty-five minutes before my scheduled arraignment, I had a conversation with Mr. Rosenbloom. I reached out because I was concerned that I had not yet spoken to a lawyer. Had I not taken this initiative, I would not have had the opportunity to consult with an attorney prior to my arraignment. This experience has caused me to reconsider whether retaining this firm was the right decision. I began to question whether Mr. Rosenbloom was the representative I had envisioned. His demeanor appeared inattentive and lacking in empathy, which gave me a sense of dismissiveness. However, it's possible that my expectations were set too high, and he may indeed be confident in his skills, believing that exceptional customer service is unnecessary, even if he excels in the courtroom.While the positive reviews provide a glimmer of hope, the negative feedback reflected in one-star ratings resonates more closely with my current experience. Since we have only recently started this process, I will provide updates if my perspective changes; however, at this moment, I remain uncertain.angellina jeanty ★★☆☆☆ My experience with this law firm was disappointing, especially considering the overwhelmingly positive reviews that initially gave me high expectations. Unfortunately, my experience aligned more with the negative feedback. I understand that the courts move slowly and that lawyers have demanding schedules, but given the cost of their services and the praise in the reviews, I expected more attentiveness and care as a client.It was frustrating to read glowing reviews (and even people posting pictures) about exceptional service while feeling like I was pushed aside and treated as an afterthought. Despite paying a significant amount, I felt ignored and undervalued. There were multiple instances where I called the firm two weeks leading up to my court dates, only for my case to be rescheduled at the last minute—an incredibly unprofessional experience. I didn’t even speak with my lawyer until about four months after agreeing to work with the firm, and when I finally did, his tone made it clear that my frustrations were of little concern to him.Additionally, my lawyer sent me a link to an evaluator, which turned out to be broken. I responded to let him know, yet to this day, I have not received a reply…. . Had I known I would deal with this level of incompetence, I would have just opted for a public defender. This entire experience made it clear to me that they seem to be selective with whom they prioritize.The only reason I’m not leaving a one-star review is because my case managers( and Brandon) were the only positive aspect of working with this firm. This was my first time needing a lawyer, and I sincerely hope it will be my last. Based on the firm’s defensive responses to other negative reviews, I don’t expect any accountability or reflection from them regarding my experience. That being said, I hope others have a better experience than I did.NB ★☆☆☆☆ Very disappointed in this Attorney and office. My case has been pending for over 4 YEARS I have attempted many times to have a meeting with Mr Barber ,Everytime I get the run around. Even after paying all the fees.I truly believe this office and attorney is hit or miss ,I’m sure deep down he’s a half decent attorney if he cares enough to pay attention to your case but it seems for the clients with bigger cases he pays attention to and for those who have smaller cases he completely forgets about . The turn over is also so high in his office that clients often fall through the cracks .It still amazing me that either the incompetence or lack of care for his clients hasn’t been addressed, an easy phone call from the attorney and him taking 5 minutes to look at my case could have helped me tremendously,Unfortunately one of my biggest regrets was using this attorney.Response from the ownerIt is literally impossible to discuss anything as your "name" is anonymous. I am also unclear why it was so hard to get a hold of me when every client I have and have ever had leaves our office after signing up with my cell phone. However, based on your initials i looked in our case management system. Based on your initials however, it appears that it was everything the office could do to keep you out of jail for your DUI charges. Also, of note- I was not the attorney at the office that you hired and was consequently assigned to your case. The attorney that did work on your case got the child endangerment dismissed and the original offer which involved DUI court was changed to involve no jail time and no DUI court. Furthermore, our case management system shows that your mother called the office almost every week to discuss your case. Tyrique Hall ★☆☆☆☆ Awful experience. I paid about 500 a month for a year because he kept asking for a continuance on the court case.I live in NJ so each time I got a new court date I flew back to Georgia just to find out I didn’t have to be there. If the lawyer had told me I didn’t have to be there I wouldn’t have wasted money on travel multiple times. I reached out multiple times and could never get a call back from the lawyer. I finally got a call when he said we should take the original sentence the judge was giving me a year prior. So I basically paid 500 a month with barley any contact with my lawyer and then added fees on travel for no reason.Response from the ownerMr hall, thank you for your review but some things just are not true. First- you never came to court you always appeared via zoom ; so your thoughts that you came to court when you didn’t need to simply are not true. You were always able to get ahold of an attorney by phone and text because you spoke with both myself and attorney rosenbloom via our cell phones and you NEVER travelled here for your court dates as you always appeared via zoom because we always worked that out for you. js_loader
