Joel and Jessica are a Dynamic duo!

If you are a person who appreciates someone who just pushes all the BS aside and is comfortable being 100% honest, this is the right law group for you. I can’t even begin to put in words how grateful I am to have had Joel and Jessica as my lawyers for my custody case. If you’re reading this review a...nd are looking for some sort of sign or go signal on weather or not they’re the right people to have on your side as you go into battle, this is the sign! I had a very different situation where I didn’t even live in the state of Nevada and Jessica and Joel always went above and beyond when it came to communication. My custody case was the hardest thing I’ve ever had to go through ( I did not expect to go through a custody battle and having a pandemic hit) and the whole team at Barber law did not just make me feel like I was just another client they were representing, they made me feel like family. There were many times where I felt like I was loosing hope during the process but I received reassurance whenever I spoke to someone from the team. The first time I sat with Joel he told my fiancé and I that he and his team would make sure I got my son back as long I was willing to do my part to make it happen and that’s exactly what happened. I won my custody case and my son will be back home with me. You can keep searching for other law firms to represent you but you won’t find any like the team at Barber law. Joel, Jessica, Rachel and Sydnie. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart thank you for all the pep talks prior to each hearing and for showing me heart,empathy, honesty,resilience and integrity throughout the whole process. I am forever GRATEFUL!!!

Excellent Attorney

May 2021 Joel Barber reviewed my case and determined to give me the “benefit of the doubt” and fight for me. This was regarding a false accusation case that needed the right lawyer who had compassion and insight to help me (the client) get through a very sad and challenging allegation. They say th...ey handle cases with dignity and it is true. The team pulled my case together efficiently and compassionately with confidence. Joel Barber, Esq., and Sydnie Paige Esq., to their credit, spent the quality time needed to understand the nature of the allegation. They clearly and concisely summed up the situation in order to present the facts needed to win my case. Zoom meetings are difficult, especially for a court hearing and yet with Barber Law Group conquered the situation with confidence and expertise. Joel got to the meat of the issue professionally and aggressively to accomplish the right result. They were the right lawyers for this case. I will continue to use Barber Law Group in the future.

Joel and Katie hit a homerun!

Hiring Joel and his team to get me through my divorce was the best decision I could have made. From day one Joel was honest and up front with me on the best and worst outcomes that I could hope for. I appreciated their honesty throughout the proceedings both with me and the approach on my case. COVID... shut down the courts and so we had to wait. My ex and I were able to create our own agreement. Katie took the lead and helped us rework the agreement and finalize it for the courts. Katie was so patient working with us to answer questions and help us come to a final agreement. While signing the papers together in their office, Joel came over to applaud us both for coming to an agreement together without the need for court and additional cost to both of us. I have no doubt that if we would have gone to court Joel would have fought to the end to make sure that I came out on the right end. At every turn Joel and Katie were there to make sure I was protected, and I could not thank them more. I would hire them again without hesitation.

Excellent Lawyer and Staff

Divorce is such a stressful time in anyone's life and The Barber Law Group, Joel and Katie were instrumental in keeping my stress to a minimum. I can't begin to quantify the ways in which their legal prowess with my divorce and being my advocate made my life easier and manageable. In the many years a...s a Peace Officer and experiences I would highly recommend Joel and his team to represent you. There is no better group in their profession and they have become family to me. B.

Excellent attorney

Joel is the second attorney I used in my divorce/child custody case. He cleaned up the mess that the first attorney created. Joel is very passionate about what he does. He has a very good reputation with fellow attorneys and judges in the area. If you are looking to hire an attorney that will get yo...u the results you want, you should definitely consider Joel.
