I had the privilege of working with Raquel Smith from the Law Offices of Barry H. Helfand, and I cannot recommend her highly enough! Her passion, dedication, and commitment to my case went above and beyond my expectations. From the very beginning, Raquel demonstrated exceptional legal expertise. She listened attentively to my concerns, thoroughly analyzed the situation, and crafted a strategic approach. Her attention to detail and tireless efforts ensured the best possible outcome for me. But it wasn’t just her legal prowess that impressed me—it was her genuine care for my well-being. Raquel took the time to explain every step of the process, alleviating my anxiety and providing much-needed reassurance. She was always available to answer my questions, even during challenging times. In court, Raquel’s poise and eloquence were remarkable. She fought tirelessly for my rights, and her persuasive arguments made a significant impact. Thanks to her, I received a favorable resolution that exceeded my expectations. I wholeheartedly recommend Raquel Smith and the Law Offices of Barry H. Helfand. If you’re seeking a dedicated, compassionate, and effective attorney, look no further. Raquel truly goes the extra mile for her clients, and I am forever grateful for her outstanding representation. Thank you, Raquel, for making a difference in my life!

I wish I could give 10 stars. Engaging Barry to help me with my 2 DUI cases was one of the best decisions I've ever made. Barry handled my cases effectively and gracefully. He has helped me to get the lightest sentences possible !!! I actually think the results were better than the lightest sentences possible. Because of COVID, the court had to change my court dates and the process dragged longer than expected, but Barry and his legal assistant Melanie have always made themselves available whenever I need them. First class lawyer with first class legal assistant! I would highly recommend Barry and his law office. He has saved my life. He could save yours too.

I was facing sexual assault charges and had plead guilty to a misdemeanor with another lawyer. With the plea, I was required to register as a sex offender. this was the absolute worst time of my life. My only chance out of this situation would be a successful reconsideration appeal. I needed a lawyer who was top notch and experienced. I choose Barry Helfand and he did not disappoint. Two months later I was scheduled a hearing and Barry was able to get me a PBJ. I am no longer on the registry, I am a free man. Thank you Mr. Helfand

Mr. Helfand has been always been there for me. For many years I had troubles with addiction and it led to court cases. He always stayed by my side and made sure I had the best possible outcome. Hands down the best lawyer around.

Mr. Helfand, you were MY SECURITY BLANKET today (07-06-2020)! YES, YOU SURE WERE! Thanks for believing in me. You are the only lawyer, EVER, (though I’ve seen quite a few) that through all the clamor, sees me for who I truly am - a decent person who a horrible mistake have made. A mistake though a malefaction made (was made for a reason right and a noble cause but has gone wrong for method implemented). Thanks for supporting, encouraging, and uplifting me. Thanks for seeing, as a whole, the person I am and not just my snafu and not just a source for income to you I be. Thanks for not making me into my transgression, atrocious though be. Thanks for seeing beyond my unintentional contravention to my quality within. Thanks for seeing that I am only a human whose mistake like all others cannot be undone but that notwithstanding, I am not my sin. Mr. Helfand, I want you to know that I want for you, FOREVER TO LIVE, at least and up until I have died and then far beyond. For I am thoroughly convinced, not in this life, ANOTHER LIKE YOU, will I ever find – no, not a one!

Barry Helfand is a really smart individual . He came highly recommended from a couple of people who have used him before and was worth every penny . He manage to get my case annulled with just a few words /details , but it was the WAY he said them that really sealed the deal . He was actually able to make a stressful situation kind of fun . He’s got a top-notch team working with him , Melanie is an A+ assistant and all the David‘s are top-notch attorneys as well ! Thank you Barry and team for all your help!

I cannot thank Mr. Helfand enough. I still remember his appearance at court, just magnificent!. He was able to reduce my sentence, which was mandatory jail time to just a PBJ, even under a strict judge's eyes. It has been 3 years since that incident, and I am still thankful that I made the right determination in hiring Mr. Helfand as an attorney. Ms. Kristin is the most dynamic supporting staff that I have ever seen. She is on top of everything. 10/10 would recommend.

Barry is the best lawyer in Montgomery county hands down. I was facing three aggravated animal cruelty charges felonies and three animal cruelty charges misdemeanors with a maximum sentence of 9 years in prison. Barry listened to my case and helped me prepare a defense that was presented to the district attorney. Weeks before my scheduled trial date Barry was able to get my case steted which will eventually be expunged. He saved my career and my freedom. I am able to now continue my life with a clean record. Not sure how or what magic wand Barry bought but he definitely used it here. Its finally over, thanks Barry! O and by the way, he also helped me get a trespassing charged dropped with in 25 minutes of entering the court house. (Long story at the casino)

Mr Helfand has been my attorney for 3 cases thus far. All three were major cases! Felonies and misdemeanors. The first case I had i met another attorney whom told me to take a plea deal. When i met mr helfand he told my family and I not to worry and the case was dismissed. The last case was a few weeks ago and mr helfand was superb during trial. He is so smart and confident! His staff is great especially Kristin and mr martella is always there to help as well. They are like family and treat me like family. Thank you for saving me time and time again! 3 for 3!! All expunged!

Barry gave me straight forward expectations from day one , then exceeded them. He had Pros. witnesses contradicting each other throughout I am very blessed that I found this man to handle my case.

I was facing sexual assault allegations Mr Helfand listened in intently and handled the situation . he knows the law like the back of his hand and I would recommend him to anyone when you get you into with the law

Barry Helfand is the single greatest lawyer that I've ever heard of, let alone had on my team. As a repeat offender I was sure that I was going to have "the book thrown at me". The day of my trial I was extremely nervous but Barry kept me confident. I'm still unsure of what sort of legal wizardry he preformed but five minutes after his arrival into the court room he had my case verdict: Nolle prosequi. I never would have dreamt this to be possible for a third DUI charge. I will absolutely recommend Barry Helfand to anyone in a tough spot legally. thanks again Barry!
