Stephen Barnes competently handled our lemon law case with Ford and seriously exceeded my expectations. He was super patient listening to all my concerns and explaining how the process works. He clearly stated expectations, promptly filed the claim and kept me up to date on progress as we waited on Ford to respond. It was a 9 month process due to lack of response from Ford. Thanks to Barnes' firm demand letter, we avoided arbitration and finally settled out of court with almost the full purchase price of the car (including financing and we had 96K miles on the car!) I would definitely work with

Needing an attorney for a vehicle buy back under the Lemon Law, I contacted Mr. Barnes for assistance. Mr. Barnes is an outstanding attorney and was very easy to work with. Mr. Barnes was very upfront about the time it would take to deal with this particular company and kept me well informed throughout the process. I also appreciate how patient Mr. Barnes was when communicating with me during this time. I would have moments of frustration with the process and contact him, and he was always very responsive and would review the process with me, let me know where we stood, and inform me of what to

Had the unfortunate need to hire a lawyer to represent me for a lemon car buyback. Stephen acted professionally and the whole process went very smooth and as described. I would recommend him to anyone looking for representation in a lemon buyback situation.

We were able to get the manufacturer to buy back my lemon. Barnes is a professional who knows how to make things happen. It seemed like it would take a long time for them to agree to our requests but we got the resolution we desired.
Barnes is someone you can count on.
.. And he was a pleasure to work with.
We are thankful we called the right guy to help us.

Outstanding! - I have had two BMW with Lemon Law issues. Steve is in my opinion the go-to guy when it comes to Lemon Law issues. Having managed many real estate agents and real estate transactions, I know how important it is to have a seasoned attorney for specific legal problems. I am proud to say that I have recommended Steve many times since I know from experience what he can do in turning a painful experience into a positive experience. Feel free to contact me for my opinion of my multiple experience with Steven.
