Constitutional. Criminal Tax. Civil Rights.

I’m Robert Barnes, advocate for the underdog and Attorney at Law.

From small-town East Ridge, Tennessee, to the elite environs of the Eastern Ivy league, Robert Barnes walks among the humble and the haughty. Traveling from the everyday to the esteemed, representing clients fighting for their civil rights and celebrities taking on the IRS, Barnes heeds the advice of his newspaper-throwing father, Walter, who was fond of reminding, "Never judge a man until you've walked a mile in his shoes".

“One of the central figures in the free speech battle.”
