Barry Abbott is an amazing lawyer. Professional, intelligent, caring, and he has a sense of humor. He has been helping me through a protracted divorce against an extremely difficult and dishonest man. Given how many documents and depositions are involved, I am constantly heartened that he retains all the details in his head, sometimes even items I have forgotten. He is using his encyclopedic knowledge of the law to fight for a fair division of marital assets. Barry responds to my emails and phone calls quickly, and often immediately. I am inexpressibly grateful to him and his team. I can’t imagine a better divorce attorney.

“Barry Abbott has been my attorney for family related matters for the past 20 years. I found him to be very experienced with both law as written and law as practiced. He understands the system and delivers the desired results. He is thoughtful, empathic, non-confrontational and effective in his approach. He is readily accessible and conducts himself in an ethical and professional manner. I recommend him without reservation.”

I'd give 20 stars if that was an option. Barry is an extraordinary lawyer, truly one of a kind. When I retained him I was mired in a situation that had been limping along for years and that many excellent lawyers had been unable to resolve. Barry is the one who got it done. He wasn't just brilliant - he brought humor, patience, compassion, and remarkable psychological insight to the situation, all of which qualities were crucial. He really gave me my life back and I'm eternally grateful to him.

If I could give 10 Stars I would. Barry Abbott is one of the best lawyers ever. He is incredibly knowledgeable, well spoken and warm. I have a very complex divorce case involving a special needs child. His expertise in this area, combined with divorce law is exemplary.

He shows respect and eloquence in all dealings with the court and opposing counsel. Outstanding!

I consider myself lucky to have known Mr. Abbott and to have used his experience and expertise in my divorce case. He was honest and forthright and explained to me the various steps and procedures I had to go through to settle the matter. All through the case he was immediately available and kept me informed of the developments. Due to his expert handling the matter was settled without going to trial. I will strongly recommend him to anyone who has a family court matter.

Barry has helped me several times over the years. I was always treated with compassion and he is extremely knowledgeable and always gave me good advice. My life now is much better owing to him. I give him my highest recommendation.

The first time I met with Barry, I laid out the evidence I had and asked him what he thought my chances were. I expected that he would tell me that he was impressed and that it would be very likely any judge would agree. I never forgot what he said: "You have a strong case - for a mother. If a mother brought this case she would win, but I have to tell you that there won't be a level playing field in Family Court. As a father, I can't even say you have a 50-50 chance. So before you go ahead, think about that and then let me know..." I was taken back by his honest appraisal as he was risking I wouldn’t bring the action.

In other legal actions that I brought to Barry, it was the same. He always told me what he honestly believed, regardless of whether itwas what I wanted to hear and regardless f whether it benefited him. I knew I would get the unvarnished truth and could then decide what to do.

In addition, Barry knew the law thoroughly and was a pleasure to deal with but, to me, this was decidely econdary in importance next to him being completely trustworthy.

Barry Abbott is one of the most competent, experienced, detail-oriented trial attorneys. Initially I retained him because he represents many celebrities. While I’m not a celebrity, he surely gave me celebrity treatment by delivering phenomenal results. If your case involves complexities, Barry Abbott is your litigator!

Barry Abbott was wonderful. Despite the complexities and emotions of our divorce, he was patient, empathetic, and had the skill, expertise, and experience to get to closure and a reasonable settlement.

I would wholeheartedly recommend him.
