Highly Recommend

I will be eternally grateful to Robyn Barrett, Esq. and her team for getting me through a horrific divorce. My ex husband in three words…Abusive Malignant Narcissist! This man did everything possible to abuse the system. But Robyn’s extraordinary knowledge of the law fought back. She has helped me na...vigate through this with precision, professionalism and most of all compassion. Robyn truly cares and advocates for her clients. She responds quickly to any questions or concerns that arise. She was extremely impressive in the court room. Her and Mandy are a team to be reckoned with. They were beyond prepared and organized. Robyn was fierce in her questioning, strategically extracting what was needed. The way she crossed examinations the opposing side was a sight to see. Her and team have worked long and hard to ensure the best possible outcome for me. I can’t thank them enough and highly recommend to anyone that has been silenced. Robyn Barrett Esq. and her team will be your voice!

Thank You For Fighting For Me - I Am Forever Indebted.

In April of 2024, my family moved to Arizona after my son was diagnosed with autism. In July of 2024, my at-the-time wife kidnapped both of my children in broad daylight and fled the state, where she then used the incredible resources & connections of her family to file a divorce suit accusing me of ...every hot button issue one could think of. Despite enduring physical, emotional and verbal abuse for several years, I was the one being accused, and my children were now thousands of miles away. In desperation, I reached out to a family law attorney who, after listening to a short summary of events, told me "there's nothing you can do. You should save your resources and use them to move or travel." Despite all the proof I offered, I could tell that she was thinking exactly what I feared most would think - that as the man being accused of everything from emotional abuse to physical violence, I would be deemed guilty from the start. My next meeting was with Robyn, and it has forever changed my life. Within minutes, Robyn was quoting case law, statues, and was possibly more angry at the children's mother than I was. We were going to fight, and we were going to win, she said. I asked her how she knew. "Because I believe you, Daniel, and we're going to make sure the truth has it's day. I wouldn't tell you we could win if I wasn't sure." Ninety days after that consultation, after winning 3 of 3 hearings in 2 states, the State of Arizona ordered that the children be returned home. Robyn & her incredible paralegal Mandy called me with the news, and we laughed and cried on the phone together. There's still a long way to go, but thanks to Robyn, my son will have the incredible resources that Arizona provides to thrive with his disability. I will get to see my daughter grow up. I will get to hold them when they sad or sick, snuggle them when they're sleepy, laugh and giggle and create memories with them - all because Robyn believed in me. She has taken so many calls, answered so many emails, worked with me through incredibly tough financial situations, and has fully and deeply invested herself in my cause and case. I cannot wait for my son & daughter to meet the incredible women who have made their return home a possibility. Robyn (and Mandy) - thank you, from the bottom of my soul. Thank you for caring, for listening, for supporting, and for being so excited to cross-examine the opposition that you can barely sit still. Thank you for fighting for the truth to have its day. I am forever indebted.

Amazing Law Team

I reached out to Robyn after finally making the decision to leave my narcissistic and abusive husband, now ex-husband. Not only was he horrible to me, but to our two children also. From the moment I had a consultation call with Robyn, I knew my kids and I were in good hands. They never stopped fighti...ng and made sure to keep me updated throughout the entire process. Not only did they keep me updated on the case, but they showed compassion and checked in on my kids and I just in general. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a solid law team that truly cares and will get the job done. I'm grateful to say that not only was I granted my divorce, but also sole custody of my children.

Best Trial Attorney for DV Cases!!

From our first meeting, I had great confidence in Robyn and her abilities. Instead of being intimidated to take on my case after two other attorneys, Robyn was excited to take on the challenge. My ex is prior military, former local and federal level law enforcement, and worked for Coconino County as ...a probation officer. Throughout our entire marriage, he abused me, our children, and other victims. Robyn did not gloss over the details of this abuse; she read all of the information and evidence and all of the correspondence between my previous attorneys and my ex’s counsel. She dove into my case without hesitation. Unlike my first two attorneys (who often appeared as if they were working for the other side and had no concern for my children's best interest), when Robyn submitted documents to the court; she fully and accurately represented my concerns and sentiments. I felt as if she knew my heart, knew my children, and actually cared about our safety and well-being. My case had stalled and been delayed; no progress was made until I hired Robyn. Leading up to court, I was confident I had the best team possible. Robyn’s paralegal, Mandy is just as knowledgeable as any attorney I’ve ever known and worked equally as hard in organizing material, preparing documents, and laying out evidence for settlement discussions and hearings/trials. Both of these women are powerhouses as individuals but their combined force is astonishing!!! Whenever I had a question, it was promptly answered! Whenever we met, I had their undivided attention! When I was feeling discouraged, they encouraged me; I felt supported each step of the way! My previous attorneys allowed my ex to drag proceedings out and continue abusing me through the legal system; they did not buffer the BS. Robyn and Mandy shielded me, figuratively and literally. Crucial evidence that my former attorney claimed could not be used in support of my case was admitted by Robyn and Mandy. Witnesses that my former attorney refused to reach out to were contacted and successfully subpoenaed by Robyn and Mandy. In court, Robyn stood her ground in my defense, holding my abuser accountable for his abuse and lies. Robyn presented my case in such a thoughtful, methodical way that it made the judge’s ruling (in my favor) easy. After just a few short months with Robyn and Mandy, my children and I are one step closer to being free from my ex’s abuse, my children’s voices are finally being heard, my children are finally being protected, and I am finally receiving child support, alimony, and attorney’s fees that my former attorneys refused to fight for!!! Living in Coconino County, I was reluctant to hire Robyn out of Maricopa County after my experience with the first attorney in Maricopa. But, she was more present and committed to my case than I could have imagined. Robyn repeatedly drove three hours each way and showed up to my hearings in person (my local attorney never did). Representation is everything; this made a huge difference for me and for the judge. I am so grateful I was able to find and retain Robyn!! It’s great to have a knowledgeable attorney...but I’ve learned that having someone with 30 years of experience does no good when their heart is not in it and they don’t truly care about what happens to their clients and their clients’ children. Some people get into family law for the money. Some people practice family law because they are good at this particular area of law. Then there are individuals like Robyn and Mandy who have the heart for this work and were meant for this work!! They connected with me as a person first, then got to know my needs as a client. The work my previous attorneys shied away from was the life-changing and life-saving work that Robyn and Mandy committed to for my children and me. Forever grateful and recommend highly Robyn!!
