Donald Echols ★★★★★ December 24, 2022 I experienced a horrific ordeal with law enforcement. My ex wife who was residing with me at the time falsely accused me of the worst thing your partner can accuse you of. I was taken out of my home and charged with several felonies and locked up with no bond. I had suddenly been put in a circumstance where I could have spent the rest of my entire life in prison. I had a great job and good career whereby retirement was within my sites. All of a sudden all of that was jeopardized. My family and friends knew me very well and knew based upon my character that the charges were baseless so though my brother Michael Barbers law firm was hired. Michael immediately began working on my case and within two weeks I received a two hearings from the court which included a bond hearing and was granted a bond. I was able to keep my job that I had been on for 21 years. Michael kept working on my behalf which resulted in all charges being totally dismissed. Donna, Michael’s Chief Legal Assistant was always there when I needed questions answered, she kept me at ease with words of encouragement and comfort. My Brother could not have hired a better Law Firm to handle my case. I would recommend Michael D. Barber and associates to anyone having serious legal troubles. Thank you for believing in me and getting me my life back, I love y’all!Response from the ownerWe were thrilled at your readily and are especially excited for your outcome and that you are happy.

We called the office again because we had another situation that needed to taking care of before we can proceed with current case. Donna Introduced us to Attorney Mr. Rosenbloom who got on the job quickly and started the Motion for Dekalb County so my son can be release, but unfortunately due to the holidays people was vacationing and courts were closing and probation offices. Going through the holidays without your loved ones who is a father of 3 it was very hard, but we got through it. On January 11, 2024, Attorney Rosenbloom contacted me at 9: 57a.m and told me that my son had time served and his case in Dekalb County is finally Terminated after 3 years. I was so overjoyed to the point I had tears. Attorney Rosenbloom and his office did a great job and did keep me updated until the very end and even when he was sick, he still showed up to court for my son. I will always be thankful for him and his team. Now it's time for the current case and I am ready for that to get behind us. But one thing I can say I am very Grateful to Attorney Rosenbloom and his team.ThanksResponse from the ownerThank you for your review.

The outcome was better than we expected. We get our dog home, less fines and we are whole again.

I thought my DUI charge would cause me years of headache, expense and more. When the City of Atlanta Municipal Court wouldn't reasonably negotiate, Michael and Brandon took the case to State Court. I was amazed when they successfully negotiated a reduced charge of distracted driving! This means no points, no insurance increases and no huge DUI fines. A miracle!Response from the ownerThank you for your review. we are glad that your results ended up with a excellent ending. kendell sullivan ★★★★★ Michael D Barber & Associates. Where great they were professional ,friendly and answered every question I had no matter how small or large they were. They made me feel that they were truly there for me and all my needs and handled my case quickly. I would recommend them to anyone and everyone.Response from the ownerIts always good when our clients are pleased with their results. Even better when the process is smooth and makes it easy on our clients! chris kemble ★★★★★ Ive been fighting 3 aggravated assault charges for 2 years. While out on bond on those charges I sadly caught other felonies. I served 6 months for violating my bond conditions and was released on another bond (double bond) with their representation. Once released again, Brandon Rosenbloom was able to resolve both of my cases with the best outcome. I was offered 5 years & 3 years on my 3 aggravated assault charges (I declined) In conclusion, It was settled with just community service, a fine & first time offender probation (no jail time). While my other case got dead docketed (dismissed) due to his assistance. In all, it was a long process the communication was off at times but I learned along the way patience & trust is key. I was able to walk away not being a convicted felon and with a clean record. Nothing but good things to say. Great professional representation!Response from the ownerThank you for your review. We were very pleased that you were happy with our work! Darell Cooper ★★★★★ Great serviceMario Barahona ★★★★★ 10/10 great service very understanding and cooperative and got the best intentions for you and your caseMari Sam ★★★★★ Look no further for a Lawyer to represent you in your case. We couldn't have hoped for a better outcome for my son's DUI case in Alpharetta, when I thought the case was doomed due to his extremely high double the legal limit alcohol/blood ratio. I have used Attorney Rosenbloom on multiple occasions. He is an expert in navigating the legal system effectively and efficiently. He immediately knew the right buttons to push and just as important, when to push them. The outcome was a dismissal of all charges - a best case scenario.Iris Torres ★★★★★ Over the top very satisfied with the service that was provided! I was stressing about my DUI and hiring mister Barber was the best decision I ever made! Thank you mister Barber!Jon Bags ★★★★★ I was accused of something I did not do. I had all of the evidence. It was very stressful looking for the right lawyer to represent me. I found a lawyer with Michael D. Barber & Associates. The paralegal, Carson, was very attentive, super professional, well dressed, and there for me. Mr. Barber was amazing! The case manager, Crystl, made sure I stayed informed for my case. My attorney in court was Mr. Rosenbloom. He was extremely professional and someone you can talk to easily as well. The whole team was very down to earth. They really cared. I had tried other lawyers before them but those lawyers made me feel like they weren’t interested in my case and didn’t care to see the evidence I had, or were just unavailable. My case was dismissed and my record clean. Micheal D. Barber & Associates didn’t have me jumping through hoops as the other lawyers tried to do to me. They are military friendly, care about their clients, professional, affordable and will work with you, and are winners! If I have any more cases related to the one I had or if I see anyone I know who may need their services, Michael D. Barber & Associates get my top [mandatory] recommendation!Tammy Tabor ★★★★★ My son and I had recently relocated to GA. Unfortunately, my son was facing criminal charges and was arrested. Being new to the state, I relied solely on the internet to assist with finding a Criminal Defense attorney. After calling SEVERAL attorneys, and not even so much as a returned call; I located Mr. Barber's office. My call was returned the following business day & once retaining Mr. Barber, he immediately went to work for my son. My son was denied bond at first appearance (before hiring Mr. Barber) Mr. Barber immediately filed a motion for bond & my son was released the following week. As a mother, this was the most stressful time of my life. Mr. Barber got amazing results in the courtroom! I am so thankful and appreciative for all the hard work the team put in for my son!Shauntae McClain ★★★★★ Best lawyer and company I have ever hired. Mrs Donna omg she is amazing kind and caring. Will recommend. Mr Barber thank you thank youJabrae P ★☆☆☆☆ Most I’ve ever paid for a lawyer and least satisfied. Caught my first DUI and still charged with DUI and also had to do jail time.(Douglas County) Seems like they barely looked at my case and barley any effort took to fight for me. I hired a lawyer to avoid what I ended up receiving anyway. Life and Career ruined pretty much. I think I would have been better off with a public defender. Do not make decisions purely based on google reviews when it comes to hiring counsel, I made that mistake. Do your research. THIS WAS NOT A FELONY ARREST THAT WAS MADE I GOT ARRESTED UNDER MULTIPLE MISDEMEANOR CHARGES. TOTALLY UNFAIR EXPERIENCE GEORGIA LAWS ARE MESSED UP. Good LuckResponse from the ownerThank you for your review. However, you left out some very important information regarding your case and your charges. I want to clarify something for you. My job as your attorney is to protect your rights and analyze the case for crafting a defense. We analyze each case based on case law and our combined 30 years of experience in these matters as both former prosecutors and defense attorneys.In your particular case you had a blood alcohol level which was just below the legal limit. HOWEVER you also had a HIGH THC level in your blood AND you were also charged with Possession Manufacture and Distribution of Marijuana (WHICH IS A FELONY!!). You were also charged with DISORDERLY CONDUCT because of your interaction with the officers. In addition, there was video on your case. This video showed some particularly unsafe driving PLUS you had what a jury would see as difficult interactions with the officer (the disorderly conduct). I advised that it was your decision to either take the case to trial or accept the plea offer I negotiated for the absolute minimum sentence required by statute on the DUI and a DISMISSAL of the potential FELONY CHARGES, as well as getting ALL of your other charges dismissed.The totality of your case is what came into play here. Your review makes it seem like there was no analysis and no review of your case and that we did nothing which is ABSOLUTELY NOT TRUE! AGAIN - I advised that you could take this case to trial and what you would face if you lost or won AND I explained what we worked out on the terms of the plea. I further explained that Marijuana DUI’s are difficult to not only prove but are also difficult for juries to understand where the violation occurred and why they should convict.Sometimes the advice to accept the plea offer is based on what you are getting dismissed from the negotiated plea and what you ARE NOT RISKING by taking the plea. Here if you were to be convicted on the Marijuana charge there was a mandatory minimum that you would have had to serve in Prison and NOT 48 hours in jail. You were advised of both the good and bads of your case and the risks versus rewards of trial (especially in the County where you were arrested). As always, the ultimate choice to plea versus trial is ALWAYS the client’s decision. However, given that your POTENTIAL FELONY and all other charges were DISMISSED and you only entered a plea to a DUI, it seems that your choice was the correct one in this situation. Brandon RosenbloomSenior Partner Lewis Strickland ★☆☆☆☆ 1 star is generous because there was little to nothing positive about my experience. Communication was an ongoing issue as I struggled to get information from the case manager and the attorney was difficult/impossible to contact directly. My attorney, Brandon, was over an hour late for my court appearance and said he didn’t know until the morning of my court date that I would be facing additional jail time. That was never communicated to me prior my sentencing and I was told my initial time served should suffice. I expected more professionalism and was disappointed with the service throughout the process.Response from the ownerThank you for your review. However, I don't think that you gave all the information available for this review. Your case had a very high blood alcohol content (over 3 times the legal limit) and you were in an accident. we ran through all your options with you including letting you know that you had a triable case. HOWEVER, you chose to enter a plea to the charges. We negotiated a reduction in jail time for you which was higher than what you entered your plea for. Unfortunately, I can't make you go to trial and you chose to enter the plea which we didn't recommend. js_loader
