Roland Barbosa

I worked for Attorney Barbosa for 2 years as a legal assistant ending in 2023. I had to quit my job because of personal matters with my marriage. Fortunately, I had Mr. Barbosa as a friend and co-worker. He gave his time without charging me a cent for 9 months to get my divorce and custody case ...settled in Mediation. The representation was amazing and his experience really paid off in the case. I would never hire anyone else to assist me or my family. Thank you Roland Barbosa

My life today would have been very different if it wasn’t for Attorney Roland Barbosa who fought and won my alimony case for me. I had previously contacted his office but waited to initiate my case. I spoke with other lawyers but was not impressed by what they told me. Choosing Mr. Barbosa as my d...ivorce attorney was probably one of the best decisions of my life as the entire case could not have gone any better.

I'm a family court veteran. Been twice before and granted Primary custody in 2004 and 2008. My estranged wife served me for child support after 6 years of separation,.I knew what I needed in my representation. Experienced Presentable Personable Loyal Quick witted Attorneys are a resource... like a tool used to accomplish a vision. As a Father's Rights advocate, I hear hundreds of stories from other fathers who are not pleased with their attorney and the results of the case. I understand that in Family Court, nothing is guaranteed. I still did my due diligence and after talking to two other attorneys, I arranged a contract with Mr. Barbosa based on the criteria outlined above. Initial Consult - I honestly don't remember if it cost me anything. I knew ahead of time that this moment would come so I had savings for half of it. We met for an hour, I gave him the back story, all the current data and evidence to support my case as Primary Caretaker and discussed my strategy. He made some high level recommendations and outlined my best approach based on the initial consult. I liked that and based on the hour we talked, I measured he was a very smart person I could trust to handle at least the initial hearing. What Roland did was amazing. Dropping the formalities to get through this review. He seized on the strength of my case after our first meeting and made the biggest modification for me... I was seeking 50/50 (though for the entirety of my children's lives, they were with me 70% of the time with me as the primary caretaker) and no CS. He convinced me to modify my case to request more than 50/50 because I could have been awarded the 50/50 and STILL forced to pay child support. My ex had presented statements to the court that I had not taken care of my children for two years!! The AG, without any evidence of that, was pushing super aggressively to take money from me and put me $50K into arrears!!! Roland was able to block that. Roland helped me understand the true strengths of my case and we created a strategy to drive that to a successful court hearing where I was granted Primary caretaker where the ex-wife only received 10-12 days monthly. About what it had been in reality. The piece that broke the case. Roland is very personable in court. He does not incite animosity from the opposition and works well with them to try creating a win/win scenario. In this case though, my ex had two attorneys on her team. In a move that pretty much broke the case open for my favor, Roland, quick witted and thinking on his feet, took an item of data and got my ex to testify to it, though she probably didn't have to do so. This particular item was key because it showed her amount of finances reported were in question. Based on this, the judge recalculated her reported income to a more realistic amount. Roland was very attentive to me, meeting with me hours before our case was to be heard to ensure I was calm and understood court protocol and answered any last minute questions I had before entering court. We agreed on flat fee instead of hourly billing, as my experience with other fathers shows they felt "robbed" of their finances by the entire process, including their attorneys. He has a schedule of costs that allow you to clearly determine what each item will cost. I could go on about him. I did at times express some doubts to him about what he was doing to drive my case... I'm a veteran at this so I would poke and prod him every now and then to get a reaction. My favorite response from him was his reiteration of how much experience he has at this. It's true. He may look like he is not being super aggressive at times, but that is all part of the strategy. A calm mind surgically dissecting the situation. We won!

We hired attorney Barbosa to file a child support case including an enforcement against the father of the child. Mr. Barbosa was very experienced in the field of family law and litigation. He was straightforward and honest with us even if some of the advice he gave us was very disturbing. Noneth...eless it was true and based on current law. We will never be able to thank Mr. Barbosa for all the legal help he provided to us and at a very reasonable fee. I would recommend that anyone seeking an experienced, aggressive, and reasonable attorney, to contact Roland Barbosa.

I live in another state an decided to hire Mr. Barbosa's professional service to represent my divorce case in the Dallas county. Everything was handled aggressively and in a very professional matter from the consultation phone call until the divorce was finalized. Impeccable customer service from bot...h Marie and Roland himself. I would highly recommend the office of Roland Barbosa for any legal matters to anyone in the Dallas county area, they get the job done right the first time!
