Divorce is a confusing, painful, and difficult experience for adults and children alike. I understand the deeply personal concerns faced by my clients, and I am committed to providing caring, compassionate, and personal services. I practice family law exclusively, and I have been Board Certified in Family Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization since 2001. A former social worker, I am also trained in Collaborative Law and I have been a qualified family mediator since 1999.

Our experience with Barbara Schnack
Barbara Schnack was our attorney for our child custody case. She's hard working, honest, has good communication skills, good listing skills, a good understanding of family law, and is well respected by attorney's and judges. When someone asked me for a referral, I always suggested Mrs. Schnack first...
"A knowledgeable attorney with a strong track record of obtaining positive results. An excellent choice if you are seeking a Texas Family Law attorney."
"I endorse this lawyer. Attorney Schnack is one of the finest Divorce Attorney's in her state. She is a strong and zealous advcocate for her clients and a credit to the legal profession. I highly recommend her legal services."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have known Barbara Schnack professionally for many years, probably from the beginning of her practice. Barbara is well respected in the family law community for her dedication and professionalism. Barbara is extremely conscientious and committed to the best outcome for her clients. She has my highest regard."
"She is an outstanding and highly ethical lawyer. She has an excellent reputation. I highly recommend her."
"Barbara and I have been opposite each other on a very hotly contested case. She was a zealous advocate for her client, while keeping in mind the practical considerations of the child of our respective clients. Barbara has also mediated a family law case for me. I would have never believed that the case would settle, but through her diligent efforts and "never say die" attitude, she facilitated an agreement that has made my client very happy. I am glad that Barbara is a fellow member of the Bar."
"I endorse this lawyer's work. She is ethical and really advocates for her client. Having Ms. Schnack on the opposing side of a case - is a benefit to both parties - because she cares about her clients and their children."
"I very strongly endorse this lawyer's work. I have known Barbara since the beginning of her legal work. I have been an adversary to Barbara on at least one, maybe two cases over the years. She is a wonderful attorney for a variety of reasons. She is extremely intelligent, compassionate, diligent, completely ethical and always reliable. Her clients and adversaries can always count on her to be totally prepared and ready to zealously and persuasively argue her client's position before opposing client and/or the court. She also understands the art of negotiation when it benefits her client. She is a specialist in Family Law and, as an attorney with many, many years of experience, I find Barbara to be an attorney to emulate."
