I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Barrett. From the beginning, he was professional, knowledgeable, and truly took the time to understand my case and what was most important to me and my child. After going through a very difficult custody situation & 3 other attorneys I finally felt like I had an attorney who genuinely listened to me and made my concerns feel important. For the first time, I felt like I had a real voice in the courtroom and that someone was advocating for me and my child the way I had been trying to advocate for us all along. Barrett & his team went above and beyond in preparing for and handling my case, and his work ultimately helped me regain custody of my child and secure the school district I had been fighting for. I never felt like I was just another case or another client. I am incredibly grateful for the time, effort, and dedication he put into my case. I would highly recommend Barrett to anyone going through a difficult family court or custody matter and looking for an attorney who is not only skilled and professional, but who will truly listen and advocate for what matters.
There aren't enough words to express how grateful I am to Mack & Associates. Going through a custody case was one of the most stressful and emotional experiences of my life, but from the very beginning, they treated me with compassion, respect, and genuine care. They listened to my concerns, fought tirelessly for me and my family, and ultimately helped me achieve everything I had hoped for. Throughout the entire process, they were attentive, thorough, and always available when I needed guidance or reassurance. I never felt like just another client—they truly cared about my case and about me as a person. I can't thank the team at Mack & Associates enough for everything they did. Their professionalism, dedication, and commitment made all the difference during such an important time in my life. I would hire them again without a second thought and wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for a law firm that will stand by you, fight for you, and genuinely have your best interests at heart.
I cannot say enough good things about Barrett Mack and his entire team. From the very beginning, Barrett was honest and straightforward with me. He never made promises he couldn’t keep, never told me what I wanted to hear, and always made sure I understood where things stood and what to realistically expect. He was incredibly involved, empathetic, knew every detail of my case and was prepared for war if it came to it. He definitely lived up to the hype of his reputation. The level of effort from his entire office was remarkable. Katelyn, one of the associate attorneys, worked incredibly hard on my case and deserves special recognition as well. She was thorough, responsive, compassionate, and clearly invested in making sure I was well represented. She knew my case, understood well what was important to me, and was willing to put in the work necessary to get us to the best possible outcome. It truly was a team effort. From the paralegals Nikita and Gina who handled countless details behind the scenes to Lily at reception who was always kind and helpful, I was treated with respect and care by everyone I encountered. When you're going through something stressful enough to require an attorney, especially when your children are involved and emotions are high, those interactions and that feeling of security in knowing that the best has got your back is priceless. In the end, Barrett and his team got us everything that was most important. It was the absolute best outcome I could have asked out of an extremely difficult situation. I never felt like I was being sold unrealistic expectations, but I also never doubted that they were working hard and advocating for my child and myself. I am incredibly grateful to Barrett, Katelyn and the entire staff. Their honesty, hard work, and dedication made an incredibly difficult chapter of my life much easier to navigate. If you find yourself in the unfortunate position of needing an attorney, I recommend Barrett Mack and his team without hesitation.
BLUF - my third family attorney recommended Mack & Associates after digesting my case. Mack and Associates is worth every single penny. While I have zero faith in the NY Court systems, or our legal system as a whole, both Barrett Mack, Joe Drescher are phenomenal, highly capable, and willing to fight for you, and your children. I have been dealing with custody issues since my separation in 2018. I have spent over $50k between three other law firms, with almost negligible results. My third family attorney recommended Barrett Mack as the best in the business, and she was right. Barret and his staff are absolutely fantastic. They get results, as quickly as possible, even in the corrupt, and decayed legal system in Rensselaer County. I intend to keep Mack and Associates on retainer for my ex wife’s next battery of wrongful accusations that will unfortunately persist until my children are free. This will unfortunately make one hell of a netflix documentary.
Thankful to finally find an attorney who cares and goes above and beyond for his clients.
Great attorney. Goes above and beyond for his clients.

I had an excellent experience working with Barrett on my family custody petition. From start to finish, he was professional, knowledgeable, and highly responsive. He took the time to clearly explain the legal process, answered all of my questions, and made sure I felt informed and confident every step of the way. What stood out most was his attention to detail and strong advocacy on my behalf. He handled my case with care and urgency, always keeping my child’s best interests at the forefront. His guidance and strategy ultimately led to a very positive outcome, and I truly felt supported throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend him to anyone navigating a family custody matter. His expertise and dedication made a stressful situation much more manageable.
