How Corbett Uses Legal Abilities Outside of Court

Question: How do you use your legal gifts and abilities outside of court to better society?

Answer: As I said, I've been practicing law for a long time, so I have tried to do things to help the community in general. I've done volunteer work, I've done legal aid work, and I've taught at a couple of law schools as a guest lecturer on a couple of occasions to try to advise people of the—particularly in the terms of prosecutors—of the fact that they hold people's lives in their hands. And if they don't try to approach the job not only looking at the law, but looking at the individuals that they're dealing with, then they're not really doing their job.

Because ultimately, it's the protection of society. But it's also the protection of each individual. That should be an issue that they are comfortable dealing with. And if they're not willing to look at each case on an individual basis, they're not doing their jobs. And I've tried to deal with other lawyers in an educational format and advised them of the responsibilities that they hold.


Client Reviews
★★★★★
Patrick Barone is the ONLY choice for DUI defense. He was realistic from the start and made it a point to look at my case before taking my money. As a business owner, when I think of attorneys, I think of the "shark infested waters. Patrick is a shark alright, but his prey is not the client; it's justice for his client. Ten stars Patrick!!

Attorney Patrick Barone was very helpful and helped me understand the charge and sentence absolutely clearly. He also guided me through step by step helping me form a statement. His instructions were clear and detailed. It was obvious he cared about me understanding every important detail within my case. I would absolutely recommend this defense firm to anyone in need.

The Barone Defense Firm is the firm I recommend. They are truly concerned about the person, not just the legal issue, but the person as well. They are the most knowledgeable defense firm that I am aware of, having actually written the book on DWI Defense. If you are faced with a DWI you will not find a more professional and skilled law firm. But, most importantly, they care about how the accused individual recovers his or her life when the case is complete. Very remarkable group of lawyers. William H.
