About Barri
Practice areas
- Family: 60%
Dealing with matters of the family and domestic relations, family law addresses the legal responsibilities between individuals who share a domestic connection, typically through blood or marriage. Family law cases are often complex and emotionally-charged. As a board certified family law attorney, I can help you approach the process thoughtfully, efficiently, and realistically.
- Mediation: 40%
A form of alternative dispute resolution, mediation is a way of resolving disputes via a third party mediator. As a certified family financial mediator, I focus on the positive aspects of resolution and agreement and help individuals negotiate a settlement in their family law matters.

Brian Johnston, Family Attorney
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
I have known Barri as a fellow lawyer in the community for more than ten years. Barri has served as opposing counsel in cases with me throughout the years. Barri is an excellent attorney. Barri cares about her clients and works to find the best possible resolutions for her clients. Barri knows the law and uses this knowledge to best serve her clients' goals. Barri is respected by and works with other lawyers in the community to achieve her clients' goals efficiently and without unnecessary expense. Anyone who retains Barri would be very well represented.
