Intelligent Legal Guidance
Through Estate Planning
And Family Law Issues

I would like to share my experience with Miranda Barber. She was highly recommended to me by one of my closest friends who had a similar experience to mine. Many years ago, when my kids were still little, then-husband’s behavior was so beyond terrible my only option for safety and sanity for me and my kids was a divorce. I originally believed an attorney was not necessary because of just how bad it was. I thought for sure I could represent myself and surely the court would see the situation for what it was. After several years of getting nowhere in the court system and my kids being completely traumatized having to continue to go for visits with an abusive parent, they started refusing to even speak to their father. He even sent the police to my house to try and force them to go. It was beyond bad at that point. I was getting nowhere and knew it was time for help. So, I finally called Miranda. She was so extremely blown away by the situation and assured me she could help. Oh, and help she did. Miranda is so kind, professional, and the most brilliant-minded attorney I have ever met. She is extremely educated and well versed in family law. Most importantly, she cares. When you know the law like the back of your hand, and you care about your client and their kids you become a force to be reckoned with. All I had to do was try my hardest to remove the emotion from my face as she stood up and fought for us. Not only did she fight like the warrior she is, she won. She won my daughters’ freedom. Over the years, we had to go back to court a few times and every time it was the same. She gathered the facts and fought. It’s now been almost 10 years since my daughters have had to be exposed to their biological father. She was able to get a ruling that it was to be their choice if they ever so much as wanted to speak to him again. Her willingness to fight for us allowed my children to have a happy and normal childhood. They are both grown now. They both are successful young woman who have bright futures because they had the chance to live in a loving home, having all the ick removed from their lives. I was chatting with my youngest the other day and out of the blue she said, “mom thank you so much for fighting for us. I can’t imagine how my life would be right now had you not!”

I don’t wish a divorce or parental removal on anyone, however sometimes it’s what needs to be done for the best interest of the children. If you are in a situation like mine don’t hesitate to trust Miranda. It may be the most important call you ever make.
