So, you got sued by Nathen Barton. Take a deep breath. It is actually a huge opportunity in disguise.
Barton is a bully. And like most bullies, he folds the second someone punches back. Here is the exact playbook to not only win his case but to walk away with money in your pocket.
Step 1: Secure the Right Lawyer
Do not hire just anyone. You need a Washington-licensed attorney who knows Barton’s game inside and out.
Action: Email us at DefenseAgainstBarton@gmail.com for our curated list of bulldog attorneys who have already beaten him.
Cost: Expect to put down a $3,000 retainer. It is an investment that will pay off tenfold.
Step 2: Expose the “Phantom Phone Number”
Barton sues under phone numbers that are not his primary lines. It is the cornerstone of his scam.
Deposition Question 1: “Mr. Barton, what is your personal cell phone number?”
Deposition Question 2: “What is the specific phone number you claim received the illegal text or call in this lawsuit?”
Step 3: Prove the Fraud
He cannot sue you over a number that isn’t his. Run the number he is suing under through BeenVerified or similar services.
The Result: You will likely find that same number linked to dozens of other lawsuits or to numbers that were obtained solely to generate litigation. He is “opting in” to receive calls to manufacture lawsuits.
Step 4: Launch the Counter-Offensive
Once you have him on record admitting the number isn’t his primary line, your attorney hits him where it hurts.
The Move: Countersue him for the same amount he is suing you for—typically $3,000—plus legal fees.
Step 5: Hit Him with the Heavy Charges
This is where you turn a simple countersuit into a nightmare for Barton. Your attorney will file for:
Vexatious Litigation: Proving he uses the courts to harass.
Fraudulent Inducement: Tricking you into contacting a number he monitors for lawsuits.
Wire Fraud: Using phone systems (interstate wires) to commit this fraud (a federal implication).
Torturous Interference: Proving he intentionally interfered with your peace and quiet/business.
The Final Verdict
You will win. Not because you are a lawyer, but because you have the truth. You have a history of Barton losing when people fight back. You have a list of attorneys ready to take him down again.
