Outstanding attorney

I have hired Barbara 3 times for modifications to my custody with my son’s father. She has always been the utmost professional. She is strategic and highly intelligent. She has integrity and will always be honest with you and with the court. While she may be more expensive than some attorneys in the ...area, she is worth every dime. I hired a less expensive attorney for my original custody fight & regretted it. I would have come out cheaper in the end had I hired Barbara from the beginning. I can’t sing her praises enough! I highly recommend her. You won’t regret hiring her! Her staff is also always friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable.

Came highly recommended...but....

Highly recommended; however, I quickly discovered her penchant for over dramatizing an already emotional and trying divorce experience to gain an unethical upper hand. She exacerbated my statements to build upon a misleading and deceptive case theme, which was not my cup of tea. Glad I moved on.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • 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.
