Verified ClientHired Law firm 2025Title: An Outstanding Attorney Who Saved My Career I found myself in a situation where my career and livelihood were on the line, needing a lawyer for the first time. Like many, I was concerned about the stigma and had no idea how to find the right one. By pure luck, I called Barkemeyer Law Firm and was connected with Mr. Barkemeyer. Placing that level of trust in a stranger was daunting, but it was the best decision I could have made. From the start, Mr. Barkemeyer was incredibly responsive and caring. He understood the immense stress I was under and never showed frustration with my constant emails for updates. He was professional, reassuring, and transparent, always making it clear he was exhausting every possible avenue for my case. The result was better than I could have hoped for: he successfully had my DWI (.187) removed from my record. His knowledge of the legal system and its key players was clearly instrumental in this amazing outcome. The hardest part was initially paying the retainer, fearing I was just giving money to a stranger. I am so grateful I took the chance. Mr. Barkemeyer took what could have been a life-altering disaster and turned it into a mere bump in the road. If you need help, call him. If he can't assist you, I truly believe he will point you to someone who can.

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
- Comfort Level – Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
- Credentials – How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
- Cost – How are the lawyer's fees structured — hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
- City – Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?
Want to check lawyer discipline?
It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:
- Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
- Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
- Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
