Dear Berry Sands and Associates,

When my son was arrested and was facing FIVE to TEN YEARS in PRISON, it was the most devastating and dreadful day of our lives.  We learned that the criminal justice system knows no justice if your not represented by someone who knows the criminal justice system; so it is with the utmost sincerity that I write this letter to you.

A simple thank you would not, could not express the gratitude and appreciation our family and friends feel about the professional and compassionate services you provided.   When my family needed the services of an attorney and was confronted with a legal system that was both overwhelming and frightening we were lost.  The court system offered the services of a court appointed attorney, however, even we knew enough not to place the fate of our loved one in the hands of a court appointed attorney who is in reality just an armature trying to make a name for themself. It was at that point we began to search for a REAL PROFESSIONAL.  After screening several attorneys we felt an even greater since of frustration and uncertainty; we’re not rich and had to get it right the first time. Although we were not expecting any guarantees we did want honesty, integrity, and someone experienced in criminal law.    Fortunately for us a friend recommended we contact your law office and you were a God Send. My wife and I remember from the first day we met in your office until the day the Judge said my son was free to go; you always seemed to be in control of the court proceedings.

The court appearances were scheduled in a way that did not completely and totally disrupt our lives. Your knowledge of the law proved invaluable as you countered each attempt by the prosecutors to twist and sometimes even distort the circumstance of my son’s case.  It was comforting to know that all the court documentation and preparations were being handled by your law office and all we had to do was show up for court and follow your direction.

My family and I will forever be thankful to you and your staff for the outstanding defense you provided for our son.  We would without hesitation recommend your law office to anyone in need of an attorney who is highly qualified, knows the legal system, and is dedicated to the service of his clients.  Please feel free to share this thank you letter with anyone who has doubt about your ability.  I know you are needed by others who are in similar situations and I will gladly reaffirm what I know to be a fact from my personal experience with your law office.  God bless you and all you do to preserve the integrity of the profession of lawyers,

Sincerely,

James, Syrena, and Jesse Ooten

Here is another satisfied client.  This case was eventually dismissed:

Re: Letter of recommendation for Barry Gerald Sands

We are more than overjoyed with this Criminal Defense Lawyer.  We had retained two other Lawyers who did nothing but take our retainer and continue the case time after time for a period of two years, never with the intention for a settlement or to act in our defense. Out of exasperation and further drain on our funds we realize we needed a new Defense Lawyer.

We interviewed many Lawyers and decided to retain Barry Gerald Sands. It became apparent to us that he not only understood our case but felt confident in taking this to trial with an acquittal or dismissal.  He is not an arrogant Lawyer, but very personable and experienced in courtroom procedures, as we soon saw his performances in court.  His professional skills became apparent, not only to us, but also to the Prosecutor, who in the end, realized there was no chance of ever winning their case.  This was accomplished, not by continuances, but by our Defense Lawyer’s strategy and confidence in handling our defense, as it soon became apparent to “the other side”.  We prevailed and won to our satisfaction.

Barry Gerald Sands, we found is trustworthy and his ability as a Defense Lawyer. handled our case expediently.  He is a WINNER in every since of the word.
