Hired Attorney Brad Barshis

If you have a civil case & you're a man who's being messed up by his Ex, then you better hire a tough female lawyer - women swing election votes for elected judges & all other elected officials who only care about their paycheck & re-elections. Attorney Brad took 5k in advance from me & i told Newton & Hall that i needed a tough lawyer to represent me since my Ex kept filling false accusations against me just to use a PO for custody. Nothing was done professionally & i kept following up with all the documents & oral info that would help me in my case. The weird thing is: i kept getting ignored after i made the initial payment upfront which was forced on me. it's very sad that our society cares money & material life the most & not chil

Hired Attorney Brad Barshis

Hired for my daughters (Petitioner) restraining order case where all the paperwork and evidentiary documentation had been done, including the initial hearing and service to respondent. He charged almost $10,000 and promised he would advocate. We met once for 45-minutes prior to the final hearing and he filed only documents and statements we already had. When we met, he hadn’t even reviewed what had already been filed, but he talked like a 10k lawyer and assured us he would ensure the protection order would go through. The day of the hearing, he looked at my daughter and said “We’re going to get you a protection order today”. That was the furthest thing from the truth. Even with two hours until the case was presented, he fumbled through his remarks, made her case something it wasn’t, didn’t have her speak to what she’d been through and bumbled through the hearing like an incompetent and uninvested novice. There was no advocating, no reference to what the case was actually about.

Hired Law Firm

This firm represented my black male son over in king county case #20-006453. He hired them in December 2022. They told him Charlie Varnie Said he was friends with the prosecutor Laura Harmon and told my son not to worry about his case for 90 days . They did absolutely nothing on behalf of my son defense during those 90 days. They submitted false information to the court . My son had no knowledge . They lied about him waiving his right to a speedy trial . They were the absolute worse example of a lawyer I have seen. They are terrible . More documents on my IG @thefitcelebritymom my name is ANGEL MASSEY. My son is Kyle Massey

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
