I am immensely grateful to Allyson Melancon, my defense attorney. From our very first meeting, she made me feel at ease and confident in her ability to handle my case. Allyson always made time to answer my questions, and both she and Jan kept me informed every step of the way. Allyson's genuine care and dedication to her clients makes her an outstanding defense attorney. It was a blessing to find her and I highly recommend Allyson to anyone in need of legal representation.
I highly recommend this lawyer for anyone in need of legal assistance. She was incredibly sympathetic and understanding throughout my case. Her support and dedication were truly amazing, and I’m deeply grateful for her help.
I had the pleasure of working with Barry Sallinger on my case. From the initial consultation, the team demonstrated exceptional professionalism, thoroughly explaining each step of the legal process. Communication was prompt and clear, ensuring I was always informed. Thanks to their expertise, we achieved a very favorable outcome. I highly recommend Barry Salinger and his team to anyone seeking dedicated and knowledgeable legal representation

I would recommend this firm to anyone reading this review… You should look no further! That is for sure. Reviews can say a lot and for this law firm it’s 100%. This was the biggest fear in my life, and they really took care of me. Beyond grateful and more appreciative than anything. If they had 100 stars, I’d give that!

I am happy with all the support I received from Mr. Sallinger. He took a personal interest in my case and wanted to see me become a better individual. For him my case was not just a payday but he went above and beyond in providing me the support system I needed to get through the insurmountable challenges I was facing. Now I am not through yet but I am sure with his support I will be coming out of this as a better human being. I want to extended my gratitude to his team especially LaTonya for their support. I want to say there was a time I was worried that my case is not moving forward but they were dedicated and working silently in the background for the cards to open in my favors.
I used Barry Sallinger for two separate cases and the end result were that cases were dismissed. Excellent service I would recommend anyone who is facing criminal charges to hire Barry Sallinger.
Miss Allyson is an absolutely wonderful lawyer. Both prompt in response as well as supremely versed in her field of knowledge. I cannot recommend a better lawyer!
I was a client of Mr. Salinger back in 2014 and even now in 2024, the team there continues to be supportive and helpful. I was able to get through my case with minimal stress and that’s because of the expertise and knowledge that his practice possesses. I cannot express my thanks and appreciation enough.
Barry and his team are very professional, understanding and have great communication . Lauren was there to answer every question that I had. Highly recommend !
I co-counseled a land contamination case with Barry Sallinger and Bill Goodell. Both men are excellent lawyers. Barry's staff is top notch. And everyone is very skilled, professional, and informed. I could not recommend them more. Anyone lucky enough to work with these guys should count their blessings. I hope to have a chance to work with them again in the future. But if not, I know they are always willing to share their unique insight and experience. This is an incredible firm.

My daughter had multiple felony drug charges against her. He’s an expert in this field. With Barry as her attorney, she was cleared of all charges. His staff was extremely professional and very helpful and kept us updated. He’s an experienced lawyer and highly recommended.
This law firm has purposely cultivated something inside their office that is about as dynamic as it gets. Mrs. Latonya and Mrs. Melancon you both are brilliant. You deserve 500 thousand stars. I can’t imagine the work that gets done behind the scenes on just an average day. When I first met Mr. Sallinger instantly I could tell why he was so highly recommended. He has an edge in the way he does business that reverberates thru the entire office. He has a very strong Cleric personality and the fact that he uses it for Good is what mattered to me the most. This firm had my case dismissed and honestly I was enlightened to see the way it all works not to mention the knowledge you get. I was also fascinated how truly genuine
Judge Edwards was and how he treats people in court. When I first approached the stand he says alright alright let’s all calm down, I guess it was a little intense but out of respect I was just making sure I was paying very close attention. Then as small as this may sound he asked to shake my hand after he was done taking and still to this day means a lot to me. I’m grateful for this experience and I’m now a better person having had the Judges counsel and this Law Firm.

Mr. Sallinger and all of his staff are first rate. They’ll treat you with compassion, respect and integrity, but most of all, they’re very good at what they do. If you need legal representation, look no further than Mr. Barry Sallinger!
Barry and his legal team are at the top of their game. They took control of the situation and gave excellent legal advice! He put forth a great defense and got my case dismissed.
Barry and his team are very responsive and willing to go the extra mile for their clients! 10/10
Barry and his staff are amazing. They did a wonderful job in resolving a small matter for my husband and their prompt attention to the case helped us get the matter resolved quickly.
The best of the best. Our family is so grateful that we had you on our side. Legal problems are certainly overwhelming but Barry and Jan are working miracles every day. Thank you. Worth every penny.
The quality of service from Sallinger Law Firm is second to none. Mr. Sallinger says what he's going to do, then he gets it done at the highest levels. His staff works vigorously in the time of need for the client. After my first sit-down with Barry, I knew he was my guy moving forward. Highly recommend Barry Sallinger Law.
Several months ago I got myself into a difficult situation with law enforcement. At first I didn’t know what to do considering I was from a different state. After speaking to Mr Sallinger and his staff I felt like I was in good hands. Seeing Mr Sallinginer do his thing in court was amazing to watch. Too make a long story short. Mr Sallinger eventually made this nightmare go away. I’m extremely satisfied with the results of my case. Don’t make fool yourself get Mr Sallinger on your case. Stay blessed
Extremely happy with their help- they are knowledgeable, caring, and walked everything through step by step. I am relieved to have a fantastic lawyer! Highly recommend.
