Hired Law Firm

I was referred to Joel Barber Law Group to assist me with a high conflict divorce and custody battle. Joel Barber was successful in reaching an agreement at the settlement conference and not having to go to custody trial. They stuck with me for a year long case supporting me legally and emotionally through a very difficult process. The entire team went above and beyond the call of duty to offer me support and guidance. I now have joint custody of my children because I had Barber Law Group in my corner. I highly recommend this law firm.

Thank you Barber Law Group! I needed help with a custody issue and Joel & Sydnie were there with compassion, knowledge, and confidence. They were quick to respond to any questions I had and it was so reassuring to know they were fully engaged with my case. The entire office is professional and always welcoming. I highly recommend the Barber Law Group!

Hired Attorney Sydnie Wells-Seiwert

Working with Sydnie and the Barber Law Group was a wonderful experience all around. I had consulted many legal firms in the Northern Nevada area to find a lawyer that understood my situation and that would fight for me. I found that in Sydnie Wells. She took the time to listen to my case, understand all of the factors involved, and gave me options to choose from of how I wanted to move forward. I had always felt Sydnie and her team cared about me as a person and my case wasn't just a number. The entire team kept me informed of every step and what was happening behind the scenes. They have all been extremely helpful and supportive.

I am so glad I decided to hire Joel and Sydnie! Their entire team is amazing, professional, positive and a little bit of tough love. I had tried representing myself in the past and it definitely did not work out at all. This time, in a simple child support review, I decided to have representation so that I wouldn’t stumble and fall, and I am soooo glad I did! Every case takes time, but it is worth it to know your kiddos will be taken care of as they deserve to be. DO NOT HIRE ANOTHER TEAM, THIS IS THE TEAM YOU NEED!!!

Hired Attorney Joel Barber

This is the best team anyone could ask for. Jessica Barry represented me from Barber law and was extremely professional and very timely even went as far as exchanging emails with me on weekends. Every question I asked was answered and this team left no doubts in my mind. Baber Law represented me in my custody battle and I couldn't have asked for a better team for the job. The staff at Barber Law is soo friendly and even have a cute little dog in the office! Multiple times while in their office Joel came out and personally worked with me and made it a point to introduce himself to me. Thanks to this team I get to come home and see my little one. I don't know what I would have done without them and I will forever be returning to this team if I am ever in need of legal help again.

Hired Attorney Jessica Barry

I had the pleasure of working with Jessica during a stipulation on my previous divorce case. She has impeccable communication skills and would always answer my questions with high knowledge of family law. She eased my anxiety in moments of worry during my case and was aggressive when the time came to close. I felt very secure and trusted her in handling my case. She was straight forward when it came to dealing with the opposing party which was extremely difficult. She was able to obtain the best possible outcome in my case and I was very pleased to have her representing me.

Joel is by far the best attorney in town. Knowledgeable, fierce, perceptive, straightforward, and honest. He is a man of his word and will be with you through the whole process. Joel is willing to listen and fights for what is best for you and your family. If you are ever in a situation where you need an attorney, I wouldn't recommend anyone else. Joel Barber and his team are the best.

Joel and his team, Elizabeth, Ryan and Rachael are a dynamic team! They worked tirelessly to represent the best interests of myself and my two children. I am a business professional and they fought for me against paying HIM alimony and won! They helped pursue a parenting schedule that best fit the needs of my children. It was a long hard divorce and custody battle, but I am thankful I had Joel Barber and his team on my side! I highly recommend them.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
