He achieved a top 6% nationwide ranking on the Law School Admission Test He graduated at 35 years of age.

About The Law Offices of Stephen A. Barker

28 years of highly successful practice in the areas of Criminal Law, both felony and misdemeanor, DUI defense, Driver’s License Restoration, Divorce, Custody and Family Law, and Personal Injury and General Civil Litigation. Despite representing hundreds of criminal defendants, Mr. Barker can still count the number of clients who went to prison on his fingers. Those who did go received sentences well below the maximums for their mistakes. Mr. Barker defended the most difficult of all cases, the alleged murder of a baby, and after an eight day trial, received one of the fastest not guilty verdicts in Oakland County Capital Case history.
Mr. Barker has represented numerous drivers seeking license restoration and has never had a client, who followed his advice, leave a hearing without driving privileges.
Mr. Barker has handled hundreds of divorce and custody matters. He is also a trained divorce mediator. His philosophy has always been to help people through these difficult times of their lives with compassion and always with the well-being of the children foremost. He has aggressively represented both men and women. He has received the ultimate compliment of being hired by the other side to represent them in later divorces.
