Ms. Carol Barnes is truly several levels above other family law attorneys. My case was extremely long and complex, but through the good, the bad, and the very ugly, Ms. Barnes stood by my side. Going above and beyond is simply her established standard. In addition to her extensive legal expertise, sh...e provided invaluable emotional and mental health support that helped me through the most difficult moments. Her communication—and that of her entire team—far exceeded my expectations. I have recommended Ms. Barnes to others in need of legal assistance and will continue to do so without hesitation. I will never be able to thank Ms. Barnes, Maria, or Elissa enough for all they have done for my son and me. The only quality that surpasses Ms. Barnes’ legal expertise is her humanity and compassion. She will not stop fighting for you, your child, and what is right.

Ms. Carol Barnes is truly unmatched in her legal expertise, work ethic, dedication, and communication skills. After working with numerous attorneys who seemed to overlook the human factor in this long and extensive legal case, Ms. Barnes and her team answered our prayers. We were lost before we found... Ms. Barnes. I know our lives and the lives of our children will be forever enriched by the results of the hard-fought case Ms. Barnes guided us through. I can say without a doubt, you will not find a more dedicated, intelligent, and hardworking attorney than Ms. Barnes. Her communication skills are second to none. If you need a family attorney, there is no better choice than Ms. Barnes.

I interned at Barnes Law Group when I thought that I wanted to be a Family Law attorney. While interning at the office I got to witness firsthand the internal workings, their services, and their staff. I can tell you that this staff puts a tremendous amount of work, attention, and strategy behind eve...rything they do. Communications about clients’ cases, the weaknesses and how to better posture the case occupied most of the internal conversations amongst the people working there. This law office is extremely customer service oriented. During my tenure, I witnessed them win every case. It really was amazing. But I also saw the amount of work it took, the frequency with which the attorneys prioritized their clients over their personal life and the strain of representing people who are in personal crisis. I ultimately decided that I wanted a better work life balance. Whenever anyone needs a Family Lawyer, I recommend Barnes Law Group, they are great people. I know from working there that they are honest, smart, and devoted to achieving their clients’ goals. They are also down to earth and easy to talk to. Everyone I ever recommended there has thanked me for doing so.

A woman I hadn't seen in years tried to collect child support monies from me for a kid that wasn't mine. I hadn't spoken to the woman in years. My girlfriend said I urgently needed an attorney. I contacted Attorney Barnes who explained how my wages could be garnished and I could even be put in jail f...or nonpayment of child support if I don't dna test and prove I am not the father. I couldn't believe what I was hearing, but after she showed me the law, I took the test and proved I wasn't the father. I'm glad I followed Attorney Barnes advice and left crazy in the rear view mirror. Highly recommend this attorney and firm.

If you are reading this, you are probably looking for a family attorney to represent you. After reviewing and interviewing four attorneys myself, I chose Carol. The determining factors were years of experience, positive reviews, and hourly rates. My deciding factor was in our initial consultation. Ca...rol was the first attorney that listened to me closely during the initial consultation. The other attorneys seemed to spend more time telling me how good they were and talking about themselves. I guess there's a lot of ego in the business with the nature of what they do. I wanted someone humble enough to listen to the challenges we would face, so we were better prepared for the arguments, and they will come no matter how straightforward you think your case is. Her initial retainer fee and hourly rates were extremely fair and efficient. Attorneys can charge whatever they want and bill as many hours as they choose, so selecting an attorney that is fair but expeditious with their time is essential. One of our face-to-face meetings lasted over three hours, but we covered enough ground for the next three months of arguments. I was fortunate that I did not have to go to trial, but I had all the confidence in the world that if I did, we would win. My now ex- attorney's hourly rates were 30% higher, and their initial retainer was double what mine was. Carol is a clear thinker who knows how to strategize. Her years of experience are invaluable. She's been in front of most if not all judges several times, so she understands how they would probably rule on a particular part of the case. These skills end up saving time and money. I highly recommend Carol and her team represent you with your legal challenges.
