Adoption representation

Mrs. Barnhill represented us with an adoption proceeding and was very upfront with us as to what to expect and everything went as planned. We were very pleased with her work and we would use her again should we need legal services. We were very satisfied with her representing us.

Excellent lawyer

Kristi Barnhill was an excellent lawyer. She responded to emails, phone calls within business day, even calls on the weekends in emergencies. She did her job in very timely manner, and didn't over charge me for emails, calls, etc. I have and continue to recommend Kristi for anybody needing a divorce ...or family matter legal advice in Harris or Montgomery county.

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. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
