Brian Moore Barnard

Brian was one of the best friends I ever had. He had a heart as big as the Earth. I will never forget him. His wisdom helped me greatly to better my life.

This man had been my mentor in all legal matters that I ever had to deal with. Unbeknownst to other legal entities, under his private tutelage, I was able to learn much about how to take on the big dogs in court pro se and win. Brian was also available to me free of charge for private consultation. Brian could have commanded top dollar for his services but he never did because he truly cared about people. Brian wasn't just a damn good lawyer, he was a damn good human being and a damn good...

When I first met you, I said "your reputation precedes you sir" you laughed and said you didn't know if that was a good thing or a bad thing!
There was a time in my life as a young single mother when I was in a custody battle with an abusive ex. I saved up a hundred bucks and made an appointment with you for an " hour" we ended up talking for two. You gave me the paperwork I needed to proceed with my case even though I couldn't afford to retain you. My children and I are fine now....

I will miss uncle brian he helped my mom through thick and thin he was a big part of my childhood life like coming to every birthday parties of my mom and mine also my dads who is now passed i hope one day we will all see eachother in the other world i will love my uncle for ever i just wish we could of had lunch before he departed. for my 20th birthday. even though he was not my (REAL) blood uncle he still treated me as his neice and him as my uncle. sincer Cortney & Mandi

My condolences to Brian's family. We (Fred Johnson family) are sadden to hear of his passing. He was an asset to our community with his legal services. We will truly miss him & we will always remember his assistance.

I am so sorry that Salt Lake has lost one of its true civil rights advocates. I have known Brian for more than 30 years. In that time he has never forgotten what his passion was and how to best represent it. His taking on cases that no one else would, his willingness to work with people that had no ability to pay are all a tribute to the person he was.

I will forever be gratefuly that I knew him.

Our community is much diminished by his loss.He was what a lawyer should aspire to.Chris Wangsgard

Brian was a great man with a very big heart. His passing is a big loss for us all. May he now rest in peace.

I remember first seeing Brian in the 70's flyling up to the juvenile court on his bicycle.. ponytail fllying in the breeze.. there to represent a needy family...I realized then that he was a very special person indeed...
