He was referred to me by a friend who worked at the courthouse, and he did not disappoint. Not only did I get the results we hoped for, but he helped me long after the trial was over. Also, he worked with me financially with a payment plan, empathizing with my circumstances. He knows what he’s doing and does it well. Highly recommend!

Mr. Barnes tried a case for me years ago and did an absolutely amazing job so I went to his office to utilize his services again recently and he remembered me well after I explained to him my situation he offered to come to court on my behalf.. what I deemed a situation he turned into a small fine and a slap on the wrist. I'm sincerely grateful for all you've done to help me James and I'm glad to have met you.Thanks for sticking up for the little man bro! What's more amazing is he did it pro bono although he didn't have to..

James was amazing and really took the time to personally get to know my husband & myself! It was storming when we left his office and he even let us use his umbrella so we would not get wet...now that is outstanding customer service. We really look forward to him handling my husband's case.

I recommend James Barnes to anyone in need of an attorney. He is honest, straight forward and knowledgeable. I am very pleased with the outcome of my case.

I and a number of my family members found ouselves needing a attorney. And me living in Mexico City FL, needed one that would be able to work with me and stand up for me, to save time and travel expenses, I couldn't have been more grateful for him. And I was very pleased with not over charging with all the leg work he had to do for me . I will highly recommend him to anyone

I just want to thank you and your staff for going over and beyond with my family’s case. I appreciate you sitting down with me on Saturday such short notice explaining my options, also taking my frantic calls. I was able to rest after hiring you, you went above my expectations. I don’t know many lawyers who gives out his personal cell number and calls back in the evening on weekends taking time away from your family. I just want you to know all that amongst other things you did stood out well with me and my family’s view on you and your expertise. I would definitely hire you again and I would give you 10 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️If there was a option. Thanks again sir for all your help.

I recently found myself needing a lawyer. I was living in Georgia and now needed someone I could trust not only with my money but also my LIFE. My job and being a single parent prevented me from being able to drive back and forth for several court dates. Mr Barnes took my case and handled it professionally and took great pride in his work, I was kept updated thru phone and email thru my whole court case. My case was recently resolved down to a fine thanks to his great efforts. I would highly recommend this lawyer to any family or friends. Thanks again Mr. Barnes.

Paid this guy a great deal of money and he basically sent my nephew to prison for life (1st time.offender), dodged calls,didnt show up for a few hearings..DO NOT waste your time and money on this crook...

I hired James Barnes to help me with a criminal matter that I got myself into. From the first meeting he had me at ease with everything going on. I was worried about prices but he works with a payment plan that was easy to do. He was totally worth every penny if not more cause he got my case dropped. Hopefully I will never need him again. But for any reason He is my go to lawyer from now on. If you need a good criminal lawyer give him a call you will not regret it. He will work hard for you.

James R. Barnes is a man of the highest level of integrity, he exceeded all of my personal expectations deeming him a phenomenal attorney at law. Mr. Barnes is much more than any adequate attorney, he is a man to stand next to you in the deepest of trenches and tell you that everything is going to be just fine.. followed by the witty banter of course, which he has practiced possibly just as much as he has with that of the courtroom.

James R. Barnes is by all means the attorney that you would want on your side due to the persistence and intuitiveness he provides to all of his cases. Given the relative nature of my case in particular, Mr. Barnes showed the compassion and empathy I needed at that time, this compassion turned into neck wrenching anger that i feel he used as fuel to aid the final resolution of my case. I am quite pleased with the way my situation found it's ultimate conclusion. I would trust him with my representation and even my future once more without the single most batting of an eye.

To acknowledge the alternative side of the coin, I truly feel sorry for the unfortunate attorney to stand in his way within the courtroom! Once Mr. Barnes comes alive within the closed doors of a courtroom he will fight tooth to nail for the ones in which he represents. I think this is due to his true empathy for those in deepened crisis.

Fighting throughout the courtroom is quite terrifying, but i can tell you that from my personal experience I was much more at ease knowing that I had the Mike Tyson of attorneys on my side of the figurative ring. With Mr. Barnes' help, you too can feel secure knowing that your case is within the supportive hands of not only an amazing attorney, but that of a truly great man with the drive to finish exactly what he started.

Mr. Barnes is a GREAT LAWYER. Was skeptical getting a lawyer for my boyfriend dealing with the serious charge he had. I didn’t have any hope knowing the Florida system. The best thing i did was hired Mr. Barnes. He always kept in touch, answered ANY questions we had. Most of all, HE KEPT HIS WORD & with the grace of god and help from Mr.Barnes, my boyfriend was released from jail today :). Today is one of the best days so far in 2019 and I am very impressed and thankful for Mr. Barnes. He is very affordable and upfront. Thanks again Mr. Barnes.

I highly recommend Attorney James R. Barnes. I found myself in need of a lawyer and didn't know who I should hire. With the help of Avvo and Google, I was able to find three lawyers to consider. I met with Mr. Barnes first, I was so impressed with him that I immediately chose him for representation. Mr. Barnes did a great job with my case and proved, without question, he was the right choice for me.

I hired James Barnes for family and friends over the years and that he constantly stay in contact with me and have used hid skills to achieve the best results possible, all at a low price for a lawyer with his skill and experience.

The one of the best in the city..

Mr.Barnes represented my son 3 to 4 months ago on CRIMINAL charges ,he poorly defended him,Mr.Barnes never spoke to us prior court dates,always was late for every court appearance,Mr.Barnes had my son to plea out to charges guilty telling him he would be released home after he plea,so my son pleas to charges he's not guilty of when I tried to ask why is my son pleading guilty the judge said that's what I hired a lawyer for and I was told to be quiet and Mr.Barnes never spoke with me regarding this matter as the parent and the adult,he were very unprofessional with the way he spoke to me as a client and the way he represented my son case, will never refer or use him as a lawyer again, ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK!!! Waste of Money

It feels great having someone like Mr.Barnes fighting in your corner. Extremely please with the service from James and his amazing staff. Would highly recommend using Mr.Barnes for any legal issues you may be having.

Great attorney

Mr. Barnes is an extremely intelligent and knowledgeable lawyer with whom I had a great experience. His staff is very friendly and helpful especially Mrs. Elizabeth. I feel like they believed in me from the very first time I spoke to them. His dedication and professional communication was more than a relief. I felt that I was genuinely talking to a caring family member and not a lawyer.

Thank you so much for everything!

Mr. Barnes is an excellent, thorough, and caring attorney. He went above and beyond to explain everything and calm my anxiety. He genuinely cares about each person he takes on, which was very refreshing and unexpected.

This guy took my wife case and nailed it she is home with me. I glad we put our trust in him we couldn't have picked a better attorney...

I would definitely hire this man again, did a awesome job with my case, and I would also recommend him to anybody.

James R. Barnes, exceeded all of my expectations. Mr. Barnes was recommended to my son by another local attorney to handle his complicated case. I have not meet another attorney that will discuss your case on a Saturday and meet you late during the week due to work schedule. Thank you for your dedication and hard work on my sons behalf. Mr. Barnes worked his knowledge and my sons case was dropped. Thank you so much! You Rock!

James Barnes is an excellent attorney! He knows his stuff! Very highly recommended!

James R .Barnes better than the
best

Extremely helpful staff!

I don’t even know where to start . After the experience of hiring Mr. Barnes to represent my son in what was a life changing experience for all involved this has most certainly become so much more than a professional and business experience, he has become FAMILY. Because of Mr. Barnes my son is now a free man after facing four 1st degree felonies. There are not enough words for me to express the gratitude that I have for Mr. Barnes for helping to bring my son home

Helped me with a very serious situation that could have cost me years of my life. Thanks to mr Barnes ive been able to watch my kids grow and thats something i could never repay. I would recommend him to my closest family and have actually referred a couple friends to him. Both also had great results. Thanks Mr Barnes!

I have heard nothing but positive results from Mr. Barnes.

I have heard nothing but positive results from individuals who have hired Mr. Barnes. He is professional and fights for his clients.

Mr Barnes took my stress away from the moment we met. He laid out his plan and then executed that plan and the result was a dismissal of my charges. I left him alone to do the job he said he would do, but he was right there if I had a question. He gave me his cell number too. What lawyer does that? Finally, his price was less than anyone else even close to his experience and reputation.

Thanks, bro

Barnes was very professional in the court room, was clear he cared about his appearance compared to the other lawyers in the room. He was straight forward, honest, and a personality that stood out. Everyone respected him and said he was a great man and lawyer. I have no complaints, exceeded my expectations.

I am so glad I hired Mr. Barnes. He did an amazing job as my attorney.
