Barbieri Law Firm

I strongly regret hiring Barbieri Law Firm to handle my DWI case. After my arrest last June, my family helped me retain them within a month, and since then, they have billed us an outrageous $16,000—yet no progress with the case was ever made. A court date was never established yet we received a bill WEEKLY due to so-called "case checks & weekly case reviews" that yielded nothing but mounting costs. Even after we explicitly asked them to reduce the frequent updates due to financial strain, they ignored me and kept charging. Aside from a single brief court appearance on a minor, separate charge, they did almost nothing except drain my family’s savings. I cannot stress enough how exploitative this firm feels; for anyone facing a DWI, I strongly urge you to avoid them, as they will simply milk you dry without real results.

My experience with Barbieri Law Firm was disheartening. Before hiring them, I spoke with several attorneys and firms, and initially Barbieri made a very strong impression. Their intake process was polished, and the first person I spoke with was kind, empathetic, and followed up by both text and phone, which felt reassuring at the time.

However, that positive impression did not last. Once retained, it became clear that the firm’s primary focus was billing rather than meaningful progress on my case. I was charged what I believe was far more than reasonable for the type of charges I was facing, yet months passed without even receiving a court date—which, to this day, I still do not have.

The firm conducted frequent “weekly case reviews” and sent routine emails to the court asking if a date had been set. While that may sound proactive, in practice it resulted in ongoing charges for attorneys and paralegals to review a case where nothing had changed. When I raised concerns about the excessive and repetitive fees, I was told this was simply their process and that they were “looking out for the client.”

Only after I threatened to terminate their services did they temporarily agree to scale things back. That lasted for about a month and a half before the excessive billing resumed. Eventually, I decided to end the relationship altogether—at which point I was charged an additional $1,800 just to close the case.

I was a client for seven months and came away feeling that financial gain was the priority over actual legal progress. I have since learned that others have had similar experiences, and I feel it’s important to share mine so others can make an informed decision. Unless you have significant funds to spend, I would strongly recommend looking elsewhere.

Everyone is great to work with and I think they’re the best in the business. I wouldn’t want anyone else to represent me.

I am incredibly grateful for the support and guidance I received from the Barbieri Law Firm team during one of the most difficult times in my life. From the very beginning, they treated me with genuine care, respect, and understanding, which made a huge difference in how I navigated my situation. Their team was not only highly professional and knowledgeable, but also very personable—they took the time to explain everything, answer my questions, and make sure I felt confident every step of the way. Thanks to their hard work and dedication, my case was closed without any repercussions, and we are now in the process of pursuing a full expunction. I truly cannot thank them enough for their commitment and support. If you find yourself in a difficult situation and need a team that will stand by you, fight for you, and genuinely care about your outcome, I strongly recommend reaching out to Barbieri Law Firm. They made all the difference for me. — Benjamin Burgos

I spent $10k to have them represent me in a DWI case (first and only one in 45 years, accident not my fault, denton county texas). They did help me along through the initial portion of the ALR hearing process, etc. (albeit somewhat of a struggle in itself to convey my needs for the occupational license), but fast forward to now - a year later - the second my case starts to roll through the courts, they dump me onto another contracted attorney I've never heard of and didn't hire, after I've paid this firm in full the standard flat rate fee of $10k(!) . . Im not sure what they do that's so great, but my advice is: if you have $10k you can spend on a lawyer for DWI in Denton county, DO NOT buy into their slick talk. They'll tell you how great they are at even this particular issue, and just blow you off at the end once you've paid. I realize now that I should've have shopped better for an individual of my choice that specializes in the county. I probably would've saved a lot of money and been better served than by some random contract lawyer (Marisa Dunagan, Dunagan PLLC) of their choosing who seems to have no experience in the county of my first and only dwi offense. A month in jail seems to be my best resolution in an accident that wasn't my fault in the first place. Second accident: believing in this firm. I think i would've done just as good or better with a public defender. What a waste of money. . Regarding your response 4 months later, why would i want to waste anymore time talking to you? You wouldn't even help me with the ODL i still required after the fact and wanted 2500 more . . Unless you want to refund me money, which i know will never happen, there's nothing more to discuss. For real representation call tim powers in denton. He did so much more for me at a fraction of the price. I should've done that in the first place . .

"Deciding to hire Barberi Law for my husband’s federal appeal was the worst financial decision I’ve ever made. While they were initially open and helpful in explaining the process, the communication dropped off significantly once they had our money.
We were contracted with them for approximately three months, during which they billed us over $25,000. Despite these massive weekly charges for 'research' and 'updates,' absolutely nothing was accomplished. They failed to secure the case discovery from the original lawyer, and we were told that pulling trial transcripts would only add to our already mounting debt. I asked for them to stop working on our case and they continued to work on it adding another $6,000 to the $25,000 spent.
After three months and a small fortune spent, we never even received a basic answer as to whether an appeal was actually viable. If you are looking for actual results and transparent billing, I strongly recommend going elsewhere. If you enjoy throwing money away for no progress, this is the firm for you.
