Excellent family law attorney
I worked with Jill for about a year. I found her through another attorney after suboptimal help from another local attorney. Jill is very knowledgeable; she and her office staff are prompt on returning emails and phone calls. We only had to appear once in court and she did an awesome job. As a s...

Jill Barr Review
Jill is a fantastic attorney. Very professional and knowledgeable in her field. I have recommended her to several friends and colleagues all with great success. If she can't handle your case, she knows many attorneys in other counties for referrals. I highly recommend her.

Worth every dollar
Ms. Barr is a fighter. Her style is cool, steady and methodical. She is always well prepared and leaves no stone unturned. I owe her a lot for without her I would not have my children.
"Jill Barr has been a family law colleague and friend for over 20 years. Recognized as a "Super Lawyer" by California Lawyer magazine, Ms. Barr is a supremely skilled litigator and negotiator who works tirelessly on behalf of her clients. An experienced and effective trial attorney, she is well respected by judges and other attorneys for her courtroom skills, high ethical standards, and thorough preparation. Although her practice focuses on litigation, Ms. Barr is also a calm and tenacious negotiator who appreciates the value of a good settlement to her clients. She doesn’t drive a case to litigation if it is capable of being resolved outside of court, and she never puts her own ego before the interests of her clients. Ms. Barr sees her clients as people, not as cases, and she treats them with compassion and respect. She is particularly sensitive with respect to children’s needs in family law matters, which makes her very effective in cases with custody issues."
