About Bruce Barket
Bruce Barket is a founding partner at Barket, Epstein & Kearon LLP. He specializes in criminal defense cases representing individuals charged with serious offenses in federal and state courts. Mr. Barket has won numerous acquittals in high-profile cases involving such crimes as securities/mail fraud, murder and racketeering. Through grit, tenacity, and the use of his courtroom skills, he has put together an impressive string of both criminal and civil trial victories that span more than two decades. He is also known for obtaining uncanny results in the appellate and post-judgment process for clients previously convicted. Mr. Barket has won motions and hearings resulting in the overturning of criminal convictions where prior attorneys had failed and the clients were serving a prison sentence. Since 1995, he successfully filed a post judgment motion on behalf of Amy Fisher, the Long Island teenager convicted of shooting Mary Jo Buttafuco, and won her release from prison. Mr. Barket successfully defended Antowine Butts who had been charged with first degree murder. Not only did Mr. Barket gain an acquittal for Mr. Butts in his criminal trial, he also won a civil rights suit winning a large financial settlement for Mr. Butts from New York City. In 2002, Mr. Barket joined a team of lawyers representing Martin Tankleff, a Long Island teenager who was wrongfully convicted of killing his parents. Five years later, Mr. Barket and three of his colleagues walked Mr. Tankleff out of prison. Mr. Barket and the rest of “Team Tankleff” convinced then New York State Attorney General Andrew Cuomo to dismiss all of the charges against Mr. Tankleff. After serving more than 18 years in prison on a wrongful conviction, Martin Tankleff was finally exonerated.
