Highly recommend

I'm very pleased with my experience with the Barker Family Law firm. Daryn Barker listened and helped me deal with my legal matters as smoothly as possible. I always felt she was working in mine and my son's best interests.

A wonderful attorney that cares

I am writing today to provide my highest recommendation for Daryn Barker. When I met Daryn, I was in an unhappy marriage and looking for help and advice. At our first meeting, she listened to me and offered kindness, support, and confidence in a positive outcome. I cannot imagine that I was the easie...st client to work with because I was hesitant to move forward and there were delays and complications with my ex throughout the process. Daryn was incredibly supportive at every twist and turn and always there to talk me through the process and help ease my fears. Her legal advice and strategy resulted in an outcome that I would not have believed possible when everything started. I would recommend Daryn to anyone seeking the advice of counsel for family matters. She is easy to talk to and work with, incredibly intelligent, and understands how to navigate the legal process to get the best outcome for her client. Daryn genuinely cares about her clients and works tirelessly on their behalf. She is also one of the nicest and kindest people I have had the pleasure of meeting.

She is HER

Daryn was the only attorney to take the time to hear my case in person. She was just as determined as I was to protect my parental rights. Her professionalism is unparalleled and her knowledge of family is unmatched; she truly has no equal and stands head and shoulders amongst her peers.

Divorce

Daryn Barker with Barker Family Law did a fabulous job representing me during my divorce. She represented me well in court, and during a very difficult mediation. Her communication was fantastic, and she made sure I was as prepared as possible for the difficult journey of divorce after being married ...for 32 years. She's a bulldog and doesn't back down when faced with difficult spouses. She was reassuring and impeccably prepared for whatever was thrown our way. I'm incredibly blessed to have been referred to her, and have already sent multiple people her way. If you find yourself in a toxic marriage as I did, you can't go wrong hiring Daryn. She's brilliant in every sense of the word.

Daryn Barker - A Lawyer That You Need

I will never forget what Daryn has done for me. She’s given my children and I protection, provision and peace in our lives. From the moment I spoke with her, I knew she had a genuine interest in my case and would work hard to fight for me and my family. She worked tirelessly to prepare my case. She ...won me full custody of my children and got me a high amount of support from the judge. In a time when I was terrified and scared of what was next, Daryn walked before me confidently and put my fears to rest. She never once failed to handle each matter with care and aggression. She’s been completely indispensable to me. I could not have hired a more dedicated, professional and aggressive lawyer. If I had to do this over, I would hire her again. Daryn is my rescuer in this horrible season of my life. I could not thank her enough.

  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
