Bill is marvelous. I had a doctor friend who met with bad circumstances. An unfair event. And Bill was working the problem late in the night in the weekend to make sure everything was ok. And he took the time to explain and comfort everyone and explain the process. Very Important.

I engaged William Barabino to represent a family member. He was thoughtful and knowledgeable in his approach to our defense. When researching the case, he was very respectful to all parties involved: police officers, accusers, and court officers; the ground work was well laid out. William presented a pragmatic case to the Judge acknowledging concerns from all parties and was able to reach a mutually agreeable deal. I would highly recommend the legal services of William Barabino.

What can I say--- I've known bill for many years and never thought I would need a defense lawyer. Well I needed bill for two separate Clerk Magistrate Hearing and he (I) won both. Very prepared---and did his thing. The most important thing is we won both---First in Peabody---then in Somerville...

Attorney Barabino is an amazing attorney. From the minute I arrived at his office, to presenting my case in court, my case was flawless. Attorney Barabino made me feel at ease, and explained the case to me in detail so I would understand everything. If I had any questions, he was always available, or if he was in court, he would always get back to me. He is an excellent attorney who I would consider one of the best!

Attorney Barabino represented me against a large corporation on a civil matter. I know him as a "criminal lawyer" but he knew I needed his help and he stepped up and represented me successfully. I would highly recommend.
