From my experience, having had Barbara on the other side of several cases and also as a GAL in a child custody case, Barbara is very knowledgable of the law, she zealously represents her clients, and she is very professional. Barbara is a CPA as well and her financial acumen greatly enhances her ability to handle the financial matters in her cases."
"Barbara Fuller is an excellent attorney. Tough on opposing counsel but compassionate with her clients she is a zealous advocate who will represent your best interests."
"I endorse this lawyer.. Also for adoption, divorce, separation, and support issues, as well as business law, but can't seem to be able to include those areas in answer to the above question Barbara is unique among family lawyers in that she brings her CPA knowledge to the economic issues that are always part of a divorce. She is kind and thoughtful to her clients and respectful to all, but behind that demeanor she is assertive and gets the job done."
