Legal Representation Issues
The reviews of Peter Barry's legal representation are a mix of positive and negative experiences. Some clients were impressed with his straightforward advice and willingness to take the time to explain their situation, while others felt ignored and unresponsive.
Lack of Communication
One client, Renee PetVanDuck, was left with a very low rating due to Mr. Barry's failure to respond to her emails and messages. She felt that there may have been a personal grudge against her, which is unusual given her previous positive experiences with the firm. This experience contrasts sharply with the overwhelmingly positive reviews of Mr. Barry's communication and responsiveness.
Exceptional Service
On the other hand, many clients praised Mr. Barry's exceptional service. Markus Veirs, Ramesch Vardan, Ben Serra, Maryan Muse, Jake Armato, Chris Lutz, Roberto Robledo, Alicia Olson, and Brea Buettner-Stanchfield all gave Mr. Barry 5-star ratings, citing his willingness to listen, explain complex legal concepts, and provide valuable advice. Several clients mentioned that Mr. Barry went above and beyond to help them, including following up with additional information and resources.
