Specialties
Barney Law PLLC focuses on criminal defense, DUI defense, domestic battery, felony cases, and post‑conviction litigation, as well as serious personal injury and wrongful death cases throughout West Virginia.
On the criminal side, I handle everything from first‑offense misdemeanors to high‑stakes felonies, including murder, sex offenses, drug crimes, and violent crimes, along with appeals and habeas corpus before the West Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals.
On the injury side, I represent clients in car accidents, truck accidents, motorcycle crashes, slip‑and‑fall injuries, and wrongful death claims, focusing on clear communication, strong negotiation, and maximizing recovery.
Every case receives direct, personal attention — no associates, no handoffs, just experienced representation when the stakes are highest.
History
Established in 2015.
ney Law PLLC was founded to provide West Virginians with high‑quality, individualized criminal defense without the bureaucracy of a large firm. After years of handling complex felony trials, appeals, and post‑conviction cases, I opened my own practice to give clients direct access to an experienced attorney from day one.
Over the years, the firm has grown into a trusted resource for clients facing serious charges, license suspensions, and life‑altering legal problems. My practice now includes trial work, appeals, habeas corpus, DUI defense, and personal injury, all grounded in the same mission: protecting people when the stakes are highest.

I am a criminal defense and personal injury attorney with nearly twenty years of experience representing clients in courts across West Virginia. My practice focuses on felony defense, DUI cases, domestic battery, complex criminal litigation, appeals, and habeas corpus, along with serious personal injury and wrongful death cases.
My work includes regular appearances in magistrate and circuit courts throughout the Kanawha Valley, as well as briefing and arguing cases before the West Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals. Whether the case involves a high‑stakes felony, a DUI license suspension, or a significant injury, my approach is the same: focused analysis, honest guidance, and strong representation at every stage.
