Criminal Defense Attorney

As a defendant in juvenile and adult court and now as a criminal defense attorney for the past 35 years, Barry Voss has the breadth and depth of experiences that make him a leading attorney.

In his criminal defense practice, Barry has litigated criminal cases from narcotics to murder and white-collar crime in state and federal courts, trials and appeals.

In representing those unjustly accused of crimes throughout the United States, it doesn’t matter if it is a state case in a small community such as Escanaba, Michigan, or Nephi, Utah, or a federal charge in Chicago, Kansas City or Los Angeles, the Law Firm of Barry V. Voss, P.A., has brought the same degree of dedication and preparation to representing its clients.

Legal Accomplishments and Recognitions

Trial work is an art, not a science, and a trial lawyer's success is driven in no small part by his or her experiences. For this reason, Barry Voss's accomplishments, reflected in numerous acquittals and dismissals in state and federal courts in and outside Minnesota, as well as his membership in litigation-oriented organizations and involvement in community-based corrections programs,  has given him a creative advantage that most attorneys do not have. It is this degree of advocacy that a client receives when they retain Barry V. Voss to represent them.
