I recently found myself in a stressful situation following an accident and reached out to Barry for guidance. Even though I called him unexpectedly while still on the scene dealing with authorities, he was incredibly calm and professional, walking me through what to expect and advising me on how to handle things appropriately. His reassurance made a huge difference during a tough time. He even followed up the next morning to check on me and outline the next steps. I had met Barry through a BNI chapter last year, and I’m glad I remembered him. His expertise in criminal defense, combined with his willingness to be a resource and advocate in broader legal matters, was exactly what I needed. Highly recommend Barry for anyone in need of criminal defense representation. 5 stars.
Barry was not just my attorney; he was a friend, a father figure, and an exceptional counselor. I don’t have enough words to express not only my gratitude, but also the deep affection and respect I have for him. Being in court by his side made me feel protected and safe, as if I were standing next to Iron Man. His professionalism, integrity, and humanity are truly admirable. Barry is a respectable man who naturally earns the trust, admiration, and respect of everyone around him. Thank you, Barry. You are the best! You will always be in my heart and will forever be part of my family. The outcome of my case was truly extraordinary. I can honestly say that Barry gave life back to my life, to my husband’s, and to my family’s. May God always bless you 🙏
I am incredibly grateful to Barry Wax for his outstanding representation and unwavering support during a very difficult time. I was referred to the Florida Bar—a situation that was both intimidating and emotionally taxing. From the very beginning, Barry approached my case with professionalism, compassion, and a deep understanding of the legal and emotional complexities involved. He took the time to explain every step of the process in clear, reassuring terms, and was always available to answer questions or provide guidance, no matter how small. Barry’s ability to combine legal expertise with genuine empathy made all the difference. He didn’t just represent me—he stood by me, offering steady reassurance and thoughtful counsel that helped me stay grounded throughout the ordeal. Thanks to Barry’s strategic approach and meticulous attention to detail, we achieved the best possible outcome: the Florida Bar found no probable cause to the allegations made. This resolution lifted an enormous weight off my shoulders and allowed me to move forward with my career and peace of mind. If you are facing a Bar inquiry or any professional legal challenge, I cannot recommend Barry Wax highly enough. He is not only a brilliant attorney but also a true advocate who cares deeply about his clients. His dedication, integrity, and calming presence are unmatched.
Thank you for your kind words! It has always been my goal to shepherd my clients through difficult situations by providing a clear understanding of the process, while recognizing the emotional toll it takes on them. I am grateful I was able to achieve the best possible outcome for you. Thanks for sharing your experience via this review.
In 2021, I was unexpectedly visited at my office by two federal agents who questioned me about an investigation they were conducting that involved an external lab for urine drug screenings and the pain management clinic I own. After the meeting, they served me with a letter from the Department of Justice that said I was the target of a federal criminal investigation for health care fraud, wire fraud, and anti-kickback laws (up to 20 years in prison). I couldn’t believe this was happening to me! Thankfully, I was referred to Barry Wax. He immediately began his own investigation, spending hours interviewing my employees, speaking with the prosecutor, and explaining to me exactly what was happening. Barry listened to and believed in me when I insisted I was not guilty and had done nothing wrong. When I got indicted, Barry fought for me every step of the way. He was supportive, encouraging, and optimistic about defending me at trial. The prosecutor kept offering me a deal to plead guilty, even up until the day before the trial began when two codefendants pleaded guilty and were going to testify against me. I refused to plead guilty to a crime I did not commit, and Barry agreed. For 6 ½ weeks, Barry fought for me in the courtroom – his cross-examinations of the government’s witnesses showed that everything they testified about me was false, and the jury found me Not Guilty! Placing my faith in Barry as my lawyer and defender was the best decision I made. Even when I was afraid, and things didn’t look like they were going my way, Barry reassured me to believe in myself and my decision to go to trial because I was not guilty. After four long years, I got my life back and can breathe again. I owe my future to him, and I am eternally grateful for his expertise, guidance, and compassion during the most difficult period of my life.
Nancy, thank you so much for your wonderful review! Your determination and resoluteness to fight the charges is a testament to your belief in yourself and trust in me as your advocate. It was my honor to shepherd you through this difficult process and achieve true justice for you!
Rather than just simply writing a review , I’d like to share the personal text message I sent to Barry wax .. Barry has always shown exceptional professionalism , knowledge , compassion and wisdom in every step as my council .. Barry , Just want to say thank you again and express how truly grateful I am ! The care , support , advise , hard work and selflessness you showed during one of the hardest moments in my life was truly a blessing that I can in no way repay . My son is doing great in life and our relationship has stayed in tact and I believe you to have had a huge part in that . He took up videography and golf a few years back and it’s been taking off . He will hopefully be attending fsu in the future and actually does a few jobs filming some of the fsu football players he’s developed friendships with. Once again I believe that your help has paved a path that allowed me to support his endeavors … I am forever grateful
Thank you Omar!
Barry was recommended to us by a trusted friend, and he has proven to be not only the ideal attorney but also a true blessing.

His extensive experience and profound knowledge of the law and legal procedures have been indispensable. Moreover, he has consistently treated us with the highest degree of respect and compassion. We are profoundly grateful to have Barry represent us. He is an exemplary attorney and an outstanding human being.
Thank you Sheila! It was my pleasure to assist you and your family through a very difficult ordeal.
I retained Mr.Barry Wax in 2021 and ever since I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional service and compassionate care provided by my criminal defense attorney. From the very beginning, he demonstrated a profound understanding of the law and a deep commitment to my case. His expertise and strategic thinking were evident in every step of the process. What truly set him apart, however, was his genuine compassion and dedication. He took the time to listen to my concerns, answer all my questions, and provide constant reassurance. Throughout a very challenging time, he was a beacon of hope and support, always going above and beyond to ensure I felt informed and confident. During some of the darkest moments, he was the light at the end of the tunnel. His unwavering belief in my case and his tireless efforts provided a sense of hope and relief that words cannot fully capture. I feel truly blessed to have had him in my life, guiding me through this ordeal with such kindness and care. He always made me feel like I was more than just a client, showing empathy and understanding that made a world of difference. His communication skills were outstanding, keeping me updated on every development and explaining complex legal matters in a way that was easy to understand. His professionalism and attention to detail were impeccable, leaving no stone unturned in the pursuit of justice. It’s crucial to emphasize the importance of hiring an experienced attorney, especially when dealing with federal-level representation. The complexities and stakes are significantly higher, and having a skilled lawyer who understands the intricacies of federal law can make all the difference. My attorney’s extensive experience and knowledge were invaluable in navigating the federal legal system and securing a favorable outcome. Thanks to his relentless dedication, we achieved a favorable outcome that exceeded my expectations. I wholeheartedly recommend this attorney to anyone in need of a skilled and compassionate criminal defense lawyer. He truly makes a difference in his clients’ lives, offering not just legal expertise but also a compassionate hand to hold through the toughest times.
Barry Wax is one of the finest attorneys I have ever worked with!! His communication along with the sincere concern for my specific issues was more than ever expected. I recommend Barry to any and all with legal issues. Prompt, Responsive, Honorable, Insightful, and Dedicated are just a few of the words I use to describe this attorney! Thanks Barry, Timothy Wise
I contacted Mr. Barry Wax from a referral by another attorney. I had a first-time federal indictment that would have resulted in a federal felony conviction. I was overwhelmed to say the least. The impression I got from all the attorneys I spoke to was indifference. However, Mr. Wax took the time to have a zoom call with me and explain the whole process. It was clear to me that he was different and the right attorney for my case. After going through the whole judicial process with his guidance, he was able to get me approved for the Pre-trial Diversion program. This would mean no federal felony conviction. He told me the Southern District of Florida was notorious for not approving Pre-trial Diversion. I was only the second person in his thirty-plus years to get approved. I highly recommend Mr. Barry Wax as a criminal defense attorney.
Thank you for your review, William! It was a major accomplishment to achieve this result.
I called Barry Wax on a weekend in a panic regarding a legal issue that needed immediate attention. Not only did he rerun my call at 8:30 on a Saturday morning, he expertly guided me through the process and answered all of my questions in a calm, effective manner. He was extremely knowledgeable, honest and his communication exceeded my expectations. He returned my texts, phone calls and emails quickly and was supportive, empathetic and kind. Beyond that, he is an expert in his field who can explain legal processes in layman’s terms. I highly recommend Barry without any hesitation!
Thank you, Ilissa! It was my pleasure to assist you.
Barry Wax goes above and beyond in helping you through your case. He makes himself available at any time and continuously fights to get the absolute best outcome for his clients. I highly recommend Barry Wax to anyone seeking compassionate and diligent representation.

Mr. Wax brought an unexpected personal level of interest in my case. Ultimately, Barry knows the law three hundred - sixty degrees. His professionalism is top drawer, I would hire him again in a heartbeat.
Thank you, Darren!

A good human being you can undoubtedly trust, and that person is Mr. Barry Wax."
Angela, thank you very much for your review! I'm very appreciative of you reposing your trust in me, and your kind words.
Mr. Wax called to give me advice, even though I didn't have a Criminal Case. He is a very kind person and reached out and put me at ease. I hope I NEVER need a Criminal Lawyer to help me, but if I ever do, I will call Mr. Wax before anyone else. I am very grateful!
Thank you Robin! I appreciate your kind words.
Barry has represented and defended me on a number of complex legal matters and licensing claims over the past six years. Barry has been beyond professional, courteous, diligent, and fair in every respect in his representation. That excellent work also extended to my referrals who he represented in criminal claims. I highly recommend anyone considering Mr. Wax to retain him.
1000 out of 10, both personally and professionally; truly one of rare few that both cares, makes the effort and word kept. Without a doubt the finest gentlemen, from start to finish was there the entire time, between keeping us posted/working, I could feel he genuinely cared all the way through and I couldn’t recommend any one more. Want to sincerely thank you from the bottom of my heart and sending all the best wishes!
Thank you Ryan!
Great quality and great value , good is not enough! It was a tenuous time and Mr. Barry Wax made this experience as understanding as possible. He did not sugar coat anything, but swiftly and kindly addressed the situation. The outcome was the best possible! Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
Barry went above and beyond to help me in what I thought was going to be a difficult time. He made everything quick, painless, and rewarding. Highly recommend if in need.
Barry is hands down the best lawyer that I have ever retained. His attentiveness and proficiency are second to none. Mr. Wax is extremely nice and thorough, yet firm, tactical & decisive in court. Very highly recommended.
I found Barry to be a true professional as well as a very fine person. He treated me with great compassion and with a true sense of empathy. He managed to get done what previously I was unable to achieve with the DFS nonsense. He promised to get my license back and delivered in spades. Barry is a true credit to his profession and someone whom I would highly recommend to anyone in need of representation.
