A consummate professional who guided us through a complex divorce

When my high-net-worth divorce became contentious, I knew I needed an attorney with deep experience and a steady hand. Campbell Barrett was exactly that. His three decades of practice, particularly his focus on complex matrimonial matters, were evident from our first meeting. He expertly navigated intricate asset division and custody issues, always providing clear, strategic counsel. His recognition as Lawyer of the Year in Family Law was well-earned; his courtroom presence is formidable yet measured. The entire team at Pullman & Comley was exceptional, but Mr. Barrett’s personal oversight of my case was invaluable. He secured a fair and stable outcome, allowing me to move forward with confidence. I cannot recommend him highly enough.
