Professional. Relatable, Down-to-earth and compassionate

I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Barbara. From the very beginning, she was professional, compassionate, and completely focused on getting the best possible outcome for me. They secured a fantastic plea deal that I didn’t even think was possible, and throughout the entire proces...s, I always felt like I was in capable, trustworthy hands. What really stood out was how easy she was to talk to—relatable, down-to-earth, and always willing to explain things in a way that made sense. I never felt judged or like “just another case.” Barbara truly had my back and made sure every decision was in my best interest. If you’re looking for an attorney who is not only highly skilled but also genuinely cares, look no further. I’m incredibly grateful for everything Ms. Westphal did for me and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone needing legal help.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
