Justin J. Baran

Justin Baran is the kind of trial attorney you want in your corner when the stakes are high. He’s a seasoned litigator who focuses on criminal defense, but what really sets him apart is his time spent as a Senior Deputy Prosecutor in York County. During his tenure there, he managed over 500 cases and took a wide variety of matters to jury verdict—including homicides, violent felonies, and drug trafficking. Because he has handled every stage of a case from the prosecutor’s desk, he knows exactly how the government builds its arguments and where the cracks usually appear. He uses that "insider" perspective to build a defense for his clients that is both strategic and precise. Before his time as a prosecutor, Justin worked in private defense across central Pennsylvania and clerked for a judge in Franklin County, which gave him a rock-solid foundation in courtroom procedure and legal research. He earned his J.D. from Widener University Commonwealth Law School and is admitted to the Pennsylvania Supreme Court. Whether you’re facing a DUI or a serious felony, Justin understands the system from the inside out and knows how to fight for the best possible outcome.
