BEST AND ONLY ATTORNEY FOR NARCISSISTIC ABUSE SURVIVORS!

Carol Barnes is a true life saver. Carol was the only attorney out of 4 family law attorneys I hired who understood the level of Narcissistic Abuse I was put through. Carol’s experience showed in trial and I couldn’t have done it without her and her team! Carol took the reigns when my PTSD was trigge...red by the court hearings and filings. Anyone who has been abused by a covert and/or malignant narcissist knows the triggers are debilitating, causing mental shutdowns. Narc abuse isn’t only emotional and mental but is also financial. Carol’s 25 years of financial, narc survivors and the system experience is evident in her work. Carol fought hard for me. Saying thank you will never be enough.

Great Attorney!!

I want to start off by saying I don’t normally write reviews, but after my time with Carol, I wanted to help guide someone like myself in the right direction. Legal issues are never easy, much less when they involve children, but Carol makes this inevitably bitter and confusing process much easier. C...arol and Andrew are knowledgeable attorneys with great communication skills, and willingness to listen. They are straight to the point, no sugarcoating and with great judgment. Maria is an exceptional paralegal and a great asset to Barnes law group. I cannot thank them enough for guiding me during this process.

Carol Barnes is the best!

I cannot recommend Carol Barnes enough for anyone dealing with any type of family court issue, especially if you want the focus to be on the well-being of the child or children involved. Carol represented my daughter and granddaughter in a difficult custodial case between my daughter and her daught...er’s father. From the time my daughter first met with Carol, she was direct, informative, compassionate and focused on the well-being of my granddaughter. My daughter felt she could communicate her concerns and be heard, which is so important, especially in tough cases. It was a difficult road, but Carol was patient, attentive and responsive each step of the way. She is strong and strategic in court, again with enormous integrity working on behalf of the child at the center. We are so grateful that the end result was one that provides as much as possible to ensure my granddaughter’s well-being not just in the short term but in the long term. She also made sure that all bases were covered throughout the entire process and court agreement. She really is amazing.

ALOHA AND MAHALO'S

Ms. Carol Barnes and Barnes law firm, I’m so blessed to have had Ms. Carol Barnes and her law firm representing me and was very successful. She is not only a legal guru in all things especially with my countermotion for modification of child custody, modification of child support and... related relief. But even more so she is an exceptional human being, because she empathizes with her clients and care that justice is done! The beginning, for me it was to find the right and highly qualified Custody attorney. I had to google the best top attorneys in Nevada and Ms. Carol Barnes was one of the Law Firms that came to my attention. After reading all her reviews from prior clients, I knew she was the perfect attorney for me! Anyways the final outcome on Thursday the 16 January 2020 was that we won my custody battle and extra incentives on my modification that I was requesting for. Again I want to give a big Mahalo’s (thank you) to Ms. Carol Barnes, and all her colleagues included is Andrew, Maria and Emi. They where awesome in everyway wonderful, supportive, understanding and very dedicated group of people. There was not one attorney working for me and my case, but rather a combination of expertise in special assigned position. That make this law firm not only a team but a Ohana (family) god bless you all again and thank you for the genuine care you had for my mother, fiancée, children and especially me Eddie. Aloha & Mahalo’s Eddie

A Rare Find

Carol Barnes is the very best of the best. I can say that because I tried to retain many of the A list attorneys in town to undo a very messy case and no one would touch it. I had already lost the first custody trial and an appeal, and they all said it was too difficult and too much work for their fi...rm. Carol took my case and was able to undo 4 1/2 years of damage caused by a highly litigated case where a judge consistently ruled against me. It was very hard and frustrating work, especially because it was a relocation case. Thankfully, Carol was up for the task. She and her firm were highly organized, by the book, and ahead of the game at all times. If Carol takes your case, she believes in you and insists on winning. She leaves no rock unturned and is ALWAYS on point. The confidence I had with Carol in my corner was such a relief and comfort. She did the impossible and gave my young son and I back our lives. We will forever be grateful.
