Fulton & Barr attorney achieves recertification in Civil Trial law with the National Board of Trial Advocacy
January 30, 2024Fulton & Barr’s principal and co-founder Andrew Barr recently received his recertification as a Civil Trial advocate from the National Board of Trial Advocacy (NBTA). Barr’s recertification, which follows a rigorous application process and reflects more than 3 decades of service to residents of the Upstate, provides legal clients with an objective measure by which to choose qualified and experienced legal counsel.
“Receiving this recertification is important to me, but even more important to clients seeking legal representation,” said Barr. “The screening credentials for all NBTA board certified attorneys is rigorous, but it demonstrates my commitment to being an exceptional lawyer and my commitment to providing clients with the highest level of service and performance.”
The NBTA was formed out of a firm conviction that both the law profession and its clients would benefit from an organization designed specifically to create an objective set of standards illustrating an attorney’s experience and expertise in the practice of trial law. All NBTA board certified attorneys must complete an elaborate screening of credentials, including demonstrating substantial trial experience, submitting judicial and peer references to attest to their competency, attending continuing legal education courses, and proof of good standing.
“Andrew is an outstanding attorney and powerful litigator with a long track record of success, and this recertification reinforces that to the entire community,” said Valerie Fulton, principal at Fulton & Barr. “Andrew has fought tirelessly for personal injury and worker’s compensation clients here in the Upstate for over 30 years, and consistently helped them receive just and reasonable compensation for their injuries.”
Board Certification is the highest, most stringent, and most reliable honor an attorney can achieve. Board certifications are the only distinctions awarded by non-profit organizations. The NBTA as well as all board certifying organizations are committed to safeguarding the public’s ability to choose a good attorney.
