Barber Law Firm - The Best in Texas.!!

Great firm that got me the maximum settlement possible

When I was in a bad accident due to the negligence of the other driver, I didn’t know who to call to help me deal with the process of replacing my totaled vehicle and getting the medical bills paid. I was referred to the Barber Law Firm by a friend. From the first contact with them to the last, they were attentive to details and fought for me against the insurance company who was trying to lowball their offer. Emails and calls to the firm were always responded to in a quick manner, and the tons of questions I had throughout the process were always answered and explained. When the insurance finally settled, I received the policy maximum which was significantly higher than what the insurance initially had offered. I wouldn’t hesitate to use the firm again if needed, and would happily refer any friends as well.

I hired the Barber law firm and that was the best decision I ever made. The whole team was very communicative, followed up, and broke everything down for me from start to finish. I could not have asked for a better team.

Car Accident/Personal injury Pros

First off i want to say Thank you so much Barber Law for taking care of everything. After i met with them, i didn't have to worry about medical bills AT ALL. My case manger/lawyer was Terisa Anderson and I thank God she have patience because God know I don't. They might not call you every week to let you know what's going on but if you call, they will be 10 steps ahead of you. I would recommend them to anybody. They been very helpful and made sure the process was quick and fast. 10/10

Car accident

The team was fantastic to work with and very cordial and precise. I would recommend to whomever needs assistance with injuries from car accidents.

Great Service

I can't say enough good things about Mr. Barber and his team. They were informative, supportive and professional. If you ever need an attorney, he's definitely your guy.

Posted by Melanie | July 28, 2022

Handled with Care!

I can't praise Barber Law Firm enough, on how my case was handled. I was never left in the dark wondering where things were with my case, thanks to Terisa always keeping me in the loop of where we were in negotiations. I always felt more than a client, more like a friend of theirs they were looking out for their best interest. I not only got emails, but lots of interaction over the phone as well. It was good too, because I could hear in my advocates voice she was doing whatever she could, to fulfill her obligation to me. I trusted every process from beginning to end, and couldn't be more appreciative of the professionalism and respect I was shown to something that was pretty traumatic that I went through. Thank you Barber Law Firm! I hope to never have to use you again, for obvious reasons, but if I did seek legal counsel, you'd be on the top of my list to contact! And I would gladly refer you to anyone needing assistance! Thank you for making this process as painless as possible!

Very thoughtful and very effective.

I was injured when a car hit me from behind in September 2021. I had no idea who to turn to with my case until I began my treatment in Liberty Healthcare and I was referred to the Barber Law Firm. Mr. Kristopher Barber and Lori Sierra were both easy to communicate with and were sure to answer every question I had. If we had spoken on the phone, they emailed me the details we covered so I could have a receipt to look back on or to develop new questions. I was extremely pleased with Mr. Barber's handling of my case and he made sure I received the best settlement amount as possible. Barber Law Firm is made up of highly skilled and easy going individuals from the receptionists to the lawyers themselves. I highly recommend.

The entire Barber Law firm was excellent. They made sure to update me along the entire process of my car accident case. Any question I had was answered in its entirety and until I understood. I would definitely recommend to my friends and/or colleagues if ever needed in the future.

Very Professional

Your staff was very informative and kept me updated every step of the way. I didn't have to make any phone calls inquiring about any aspect of the case. Thank you for handling my case like a diamond

Car accident/injury

I never actually met the attorney, all communications were with Victor and Michele. Both are very polite and were on top of my case from the beginning. Great service. Thank you for all you did to help me through this long process.

Posted by Alyssa | April 20, 2022

Best lawyer!

Barber Law Firm was the best law firm we could go to for help in our case. My husband and I were hit by a driver on our way home from our baby shower. I was 31 weeks pregnant at the time and we lost our brand new car we only had for 3 months. We were blessed to be okay and our 3 dogs, but everything was a huge set back financially. We were in the best care, everyone listened to us and our concerns and put their all to help us. We couldn’t have done it without Barber Law Firm.

"I endorse Kristopher. He is a highly skilled attorney that is well respected in the legal community."

Jeffrey Hightower

Personal injury Attorney | Mar 05
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I endorse this lawyer. Kris is a great lawyer and great father/husband. Not only is his skill top notch, he is a man if great integrity. If you are lucky enough to have Kris handle your case, you are not only getting the very best, you are getting an attorney that care about your outcome and your well being completely aside from whatever fee he may earn. My wife and I watched him try a lawsuit where the opposing counsel took some personal shots at the Plaintiff. Kris stood and DESTROYED the other side with a calm confidence that had to be seen to be believed. Of course, the jury voted for Kris and his client. Don't hesitate to hire this top quality attorney."

Timothy Rayne

Personal injury Attorney | Mar 20
Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Kris and I worked on a complicated Personal Injury matter involving a student who sustained serious burns in a college welding class. Our collaberation resulted in a significant recovery for the young man. Kris is a talented, creative and aggressive Trial Lawyer and I look forward to having the opportunity to work with him again. I highly endorse Kris."

Richard Armstrong

Personal injury Attorney | Feb 25
Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I first met Kris Barber when I was appointed ad litem attorney on a wrongful death case he was handling for the surviving child. He demonstrated competence, professionalism, and a zeal for his client. I have known him for several years, and know his reputation to be excellent. I can, and do, unhesitatingly recommend him as plaintiff's counsel in the personal injury and malpractice areas."

Jim Walker

Lawsuits and disputes Attorney | Nov 24
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Mr. Barber is highly regarded in the legal community."

Reid Stewart

Personal injury Attorney | Nov 19
Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I have had the privilege to personally work with Kris on numerous matters and have known Kris for almost 8 years. I have come to admire and respect Kris for his intellect and incredible work ethic. I have worked with and referred complicated cases to Kris and look forward to doing so again. Simply put, Kris would be the first person I would call if I were in need of an attorney."

Matthew Lewis

Personal injury Attorney | Oct 30
Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I have referred cases directly to Kris and I have worked with Kris on several cases. I have watched him help people involved in minor fender-benders with relatively minor injuries, and I have seen him help those with serious life-threatening injuries that at a minimum will forever change their lives. There is no doubt that every single case is important to him and receives the same consideration, analysis and effort as any other - his best. He truly seeks the best strategy for each situation, often mulling over the alternatives, trying to stay two moves ahead of his opposition. I have referred cases to many personal injury attorneys over the last ten years, but nobody can match the results of Kris Barber. His superior knowledge and methodical preparation, in addition to his ability to connect with juries, are the keys to his success. If I ever need a personal injury attorney for myself or a family member, Kris will be the first person I call."

Mary-Margaret Black

Personal injury Attorney | Oct 21
Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I met Kris when he represented a woman who sued my client. From the start, Kris was assertive, professional, creative, and very intelligent about the way he handled his client's case. As I got to know Kris better, it was clear that he is ethical and that he puts a great deal of energy and thought into which approach will work best on any given case. He is flexible enough to change strategy when he needs to and smart enough to know when that moment comes. He genuinely cares about providing his clients with the best representation possible and obtaining excellent results on their behalf. I do not hesitate to recommend Kris to people who are looking for a personal injury attorney."

Emily Shoup

Personal injury Attorney | Oct 09
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I have known Kris for over ten years. He is the most hard-working and intelligent attorney I know. When my sister needed a personal injury attorney, I did not hesitate referring her to Kris. He took excellent care of her, as I knew he would. If I ever needed an attorney to fight for me or another family member, I would immediately call Kris."

Marc Lenahan

Personal injury Attorney | Oct 07
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Kris and I overlap in areas of law as well as in geography. As a result, we refer each other clients when we think one case might be a better for fit for the other at the time. When I refer a client to Kris, I do so with complete confidence they will be working closely with a caring and competent attorney unafraid to do what is right to secure justice."
