I had the privilege of working with Jim Barton from Barton, Mendez & Soto on my discrimination case against a community college in Arizona, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. From the start, Jim was not only highly professional and knowledgeable about discrimination and retaliation cases but also incredibly empathetic to my situation. Unlike other lawyers I met with, Jim truly understood the nuances of my case and made me feel heard and supported throughout the entire process. What stood out most was Jim’s genuine commitment to fighting injustice. It was clear that his primary concern was achieving a fair outcome rather than just focusing on financial gain. Thanks to his dedication and expertise as well as that of his team, my case was settled favorably, and I felt empowered every step of the way. If you’re looking for a lawyer who is not only skilled but also deeply cares about your case, Jim Barton is the right choice. I’m incredibly grateful for his help and highly recommend him and his team at Barton, Mendez & Soto.

Both Jim and Jacqueline are diligent in their work, know how to break down complex procedures and proceedings into understandable terms, and are attuned to the needs of their clients. Grateful for their representation and highly recommend!

Try to use them in the past they BLOCKED my last review 🤔😆(also sent me a letter to my home) and they charged me $150.00 (which is not bad) try to use them again with the help of Legal Aid of Arizona that sent me their contact info then they tried to charge me $300. I corrected the lady on the phone saying I was going to be charged $150.00 (hit me this morning I used them before) with discouraging results NOT hearing in my case completely.

Jacqueline Mendez Soto was a beacon of hope to my family at a time when our options appeared limited and the likelihood of a satisfactory resolution seemed impossible. Without the help of Jacqueline and her team, I know that I would not have had the successful outcome I have had. Employment discrimination is a hard thing to prove in in any state but Jacqueline & her staff worked tirelessly to make sure that the truth was told and presented it perfectly. She has stood by every one of my requests and guided me through the entire lengthy process. Though we faced challenges, Jacqueline did not falter. Her thorough research provided us the pathway we needed to rise to victory. I was scared how I would provide for my family, being out of work, but Jacqueline treated us with kindness and respect and did what was in "our best interest" vs just making money! I will only recommend Barton, Mendez Soto, as I have never been nor have I ever seen anyone treated better. I am proud to be a Barton Mendez Soto client and will continue to retain them for all legal matters that may arise as I know I am in the best hands. Talia Wooten

It is a honor to leave this 5 star review and to be able to express and share how grateful I am to Barton Mendez Soto. After requesting overtime pay, I was terminated from my full-time nanny job. Then, after filing a claim for overtime I was owed, my former employer served me with lawsuit, making false claims against me. Having lost my job so suddenly because I requested fair pay and then to be served with a lawsuit, only after trying to collect overtime pay rightly owed to me, I was under a great deal of stress. I reached out to many law firms and scheduled consultations that cost hundreds of dollars only to be told by most of the attorneys that it wouldn’t be financially worth it for them to take my case. It was very disheartening and I began to think I would end up having to represent myself. I had honestly lost all hope when I came across Barton Mendez Soto. I scheduled my consultation and after speaking with James Barton, I was completely put at ease. A load had been lifted off my shoulders. He was compassionate, positive and knowledgeable. When he told me that he would take my case, I got emotional because it was so refreshing to speak to an attorney who truly cared and didn’t tell me I wasn’t worth representing if he didn’t make a certain amount of money from my case. With James Barton’s perseverance, patience and knowledge, he was able to negotiate my lawsuit being dropped and my former employer paid me the overtime I was owed. I would highly recommend Barton Mendez Soto. I hope I would never need to hire an attorney for employment issue reasons again, but if I did, Barton Mendez Soto would be my only choice.
