A team you can trust
"Being accused of a crime puts you in a vulnerable position. You can trust our team to respect you and protect you throughout the process. We know what you are experiencing and we will stay by your side from start to finish. We never give up, and neither should you.""
Talk to us before you talk to anyone else.
When police ask you to answer a few questions, you are probably inclined to cooperate. We’ve been raised to trust law enforcement to protect our interests. But in this situation, investigators will be looking for anything that can be used against you. If you answer a certain way and then later realize you remembered a detail wrong, you can be accused of lying. Any inconsistencies about even minor issues can be used as evidence to show that you have something to hide.
Don’t talk to the police without
talking to an attorney first.
Even “friendly” questioning can lead to a criminal charge. At Barbieri Law Firm, our experienced team of Texas Criminal Defense Trial Lawyers works to ensure that your rights are protected during any interactions with law enforcement. We help avoid dangerous inconsistencies or vague statements. We know the tricks that will be used against you, and how to keep you safe.

Peter McKenna
We are very grateful for the services provided at Barbieri Law firm. We interviewed multiple legal teams before hiring this group, and we are so thankful we did. Ms. Barbieri's instincts coupled with the entire teams skills helped our family move thru a very complicated scenario. I would highly recommend Barbieri Law Firm to anyone that needs trusted legal counsel.
Jaime Friswold
When we first made contact with the Barbieri Law firm our lives seemed hopeless, we dreaded the thought of our son spending years in prison. He is not perfect but we did teach our kids to be gentle and caring towards others. Our son had resigned himself to spending 5 to 10 years in prison. Mrs Barbieri met with us and set us at peace. As time went by we saw how hard the whole team worked on our behalf. After almost 3 years of tough negotiating with the Prosecutors they were able to avoid jail time for our son and give our son probation instead. Not sure if all outcomes are the same, but when you hire the Barbieri Law firm I guarantee you will be hiring the best people to fight on your behalf. We will always be so grateful to Mrs Barbieri and her team. God bless them for their help.

Barbieri Law Firm handled everything very professionally. Communication with me went very smooth. Although, most cases I’m sure take time, we communicated very well and they kept in the loop consistently. I really just appreciate all their hard work and professionalism to help me out. I don’t usually write reviews but I wanted to make a point to for this law firm. Thank you!!
Michael Singh
Best decision I ever made. I was in a really bad spot with no where to turn. I had already made the mistake of going with someone else and things were not looking good at all. I felt hopeless. Then by chance I came across Barbieri Law Firm, went in and met with Heather and Katherine and told them my sad story. Before the meeting was over I knew they were the ones. They really do care and you will never doubt you are in the hands of the best. The professionalism gave me so much confidence and for good reason. Things turned out the best I could have hoped for. My family and I cannot thank them enough. If you are in a bad spot you need the best on your side. That is who Heather and Katherine are. The best. Thank you for everything

The team is truly a professional cohesive team. They have communication perfected to a fine art. If an issue ever arises anyone can assist you because they are all in the loop. It's not like you have to wait for a response from a single person.
Laura Abernathy
Truly the best experience I have ever had especially considering the threatening situation I found myself in. Mrs. Barbieri and her team are so professional and passionate and really listen. They had so many ideas and ways to help me. I think in the end they just wore down the other side and exposed the truth and how I was being misrepresented by the other side.
Guilia Blum
Heather and her team did a dynamite job with my case. I can't believe I have a brand new lease on life now because of them. I was reluctant at first, even though I had a really good feeling about them from my initial consultation. I'm so grateful I went all in. It was worth it. They are just so passionate and dedicated and have a great strategy for winning.
Zach
I hired the Barbieri Law Firm because she was simply the best attorney. She refused to stop fighting for me and my family in the midst of a very difficult and overwhelming case. Thank you. You literally saved my life (my freedom!) and I have a second lease on life and a second chance thanks to the incredible work and not guilty verdict Heather and her team did for me. I highly recommend hiring the Barbieri Law Firm and Ms. Barbieri.
