Barton Mendez Soto is, by far, one of the best law firms in the state of Arizona and the southwest. Their legal acumen is without comparison. The firm specializes in labor and voting law but above all, people. James Barton, Esq., and Jacqueline Mendez Soto, Esq., have the uncommon ability to pati ently sit down with a client and listen to the complaint, or claim, and derive a root-cause. They give priority to the client’s needs and do not discount any theory or assertion without careful analysis. Their unbiased attention to detail is essential in setting clear goals in a potential case and explaining those goals to the layperson seeking their counsel. In addition, they are honest in letting individuals know whether there is a case or not and are very reasonable with fees especially to low-income families. In 2017 I approached Mr. James Barton who listened to the circumstances surrounding my case and made a very careful assessment before accepting my case. He explained to me that patience was key and that there were many details needed for the formation of a good case against an employer who seemed like a Goliath at the time and was uncooperative. Mr. Barton eventually introduced me to his partner at the firm, Ms. Jacqueline Mendez Soto who also listened intently to my case. After requesting more documentation from the employer and providing that information to Jim and Jacquie, they agreed to take my case on a contingency basis. This was the best news I had received in two long years of struggling to find someone that would help. Jim and Jacquie reassured me throughout the entire process that it would take time and that if I was patient, my case would have resolution. Jacquie also explained that nothing was guaranteed and that there were risks such as losing my case in court. Regardless of the outcome, I was elated to work with them and to place my complete trust especially in Jacquie. Their assistant, Ms. Monse Vejar, kept the lines of communication between Jacquie and I open. Monse was always available to relay last minute information to Jacquie and Jim and she was also able to schedule my follow-on consultations without delay. In 2022 my case was resolved and I was very satisfied with the outcome thanks to the efforts of the Barton Mendez Soto law firm. They were instrumental in defending my rights and in the success of my case. Jacquie was my guiding light in a grueling legal battle and ensured that I understood the contract without rushing or pressuring my decision. I will always be thankful for the great work, effort, and skill these wonderful people invested in my case. I highly recommend Barton Mendez Soto for your legal needs.
