Ghetto, always late and unprepared. Takes your money as if she’s the best in her field then withdraws at first sign of resistance in cases. Works well with opposing counsel to help their agenda and get donations for her election campaign. Most of her good recommendations come from other lawyers for obvious reason

Update: definitely a client. You claim to be so smart you should come up with a new excuse when someone leaves you a bad review. Like we have nothing else better to do than leave random people bad reviews. I wish I had read up on you more myself before I gave you 5000$

Attorney Barlow is very knowledgeable when it comes to Child support cases. Mrs Barlow was very upfront and honest about how things would go. I feel that Attorney Barlow gave good legal and in some case personal advise throughout my case. I am very satisfied with the outcome of my support case,

Detailed, and informed me of every scenario that could happen and new the best that she can make happen. She knows what she’s doing and what information she needs to best help in my case. Any problems or questions I had was quickly answered. Thank you for your help Maria

I was referred to Attorney Barlow, and I am extremely grateful that I hired her. She was completely professional from start to finish. She was honest about the realistic journey ahead of us, but assured me that she would fight on my behalf until the end. And she did (2 years!). Aside from legal representation, at times she filled the role of counselor and friend. With a heart for the people, Attorney Barlow is a blessing for those already going through difficult times. She is undoubtedly on her way to becoming more influential in this space.

Set a $200.00 consultation with her based off the 5 star reviews. She was almost 45mins late which she apologized for but didn't seem to have any compassion to thoroughly hear my case. She seemed knowledgeable however I felt she would work better for the opposing side simply because she spoke about ways she could hurt my case vs. how she could help my case. She's more interested in helping "Fathers" prove whatever kind of case they may need vs. fighting for the child's best interest. I'm a mother whose dealt with several lawyers over the course of about a year in regards to custody for my son and I've had overall really great experiences with the ones I've chosen. I've been out of a lot of money for lawyers whom, in my own opinion, are very well worth it (one of which went on to be a judge). I called Ms. Barlow's office to ask additional questions that I did not get a chance to ask during the consultation and never received a phone call back. I absolutely can NOT have dealings with an unorganized attorney - huge pet peeve for me! I'm really big on communicating in a timely manner and being on time for meetings we schedule. That is the easiest way I can determine if I'll go any further with an attorney. I've been super emotional during this entire case but I've also came across some understanding and supportive lawyers THANKFULLY! In my search to find a new attorney (with experience in family law), respectfully, I don't think Ms. Barlow is worth the money she was asking due to her unwillingness to provide a clear understanding for what she can actually DO for me as HER client. I felt I would basically be paying her to mediate, only because that was her overall position during the consultation and for that reason I wouldn't feel confident going into a courtroom with her as my attorney.

Maria was amazing. My divorce was very stressful. She listened. She stood up for me in court. She did what she was said that she would do. She was very effective in communicating what to expect and what was required of me. She is clear, direct and professional. She made herself available and I could always, call, text or email her. Lastly, she is knowledgeable about the law and negotiated my case accordingly. She represented me well and I am satisfied.

I went through a divorce recently. We all know how stressful a divorce can be. Having Ms. Barlow as my lawyer was a peace of mind. I was happy with the outcome and very satisfied with Ms. Barlow's expertise in helping with my case. I definitely recommend her to anyone going through a divorce and/or child support cases.

Maria is the best! If you're having an issue with child support, child custody, or divorce, Maria is the one you want fighting for you. I wouldn't use any other attorney.

Didn't help at all, felt she was on the other parties side then mine, even the judge said she didn't help at all. Paid her for nothing.

The best hands down! There is no need for me to look for another lawyer. Maria took my case and did what my TWO previous lawyers couldn't....keep me out of court!! I was able to reach an agreement that was best for my child! I really felt that she cared as much about that as I did!!

If you are a FATHER who is looking for the BEST representation regarding child support, look no further than Maria Barlow!!! When it comes to fair, quick and efficient representation from a lawyer who you can count on!!! Make NO MISTAKE about it Maria Barlow is the person for the job. She explained everything to me in detail, crosses all her T's and dotting all her I's, fought for my right's as a father and make me feel 100 times better after retaining her legal services.

I would highly recommend Ms. Barlow for legal representation of anyone needing help in the area of custody or legal family concerns. She handled my case with the greatest care and professionalism. My case was successful 100% because of Ms. Barlow's skills and legal knowledge.

Attorney Barlow portrayed excellence. I'm so happy with the experience that my husband and I encountered from her service. She was reasonable and made sure we that we understood what she could do for our situation. She's not the type of lawyer that sells you a dream just to receive payment. I would hire her again and definitely recommend her services for any one in need. She knows her stuff❤

I have never met an attorney quite like Maria. Not only is she compassionate about her work, she is diligent beyond her requirements. A rare quality these days. I retained her services in regard to some out of state traffic violations in which the prosecutor was trying to charge as criminal offenses. I had given Maria full power of attorney to dispose of these charges in what ever manner she deemed to be appropriate. Any other attorney would have simply accepted the misdemeanor charges and probation (which would be on my record) then sent me the a list of the fines and court costs. Maria not only would not "just accept that", she went to court a second time and got all charges totally dismissed. Her legal prowess is exceptional. She does not let prosecutors bully her! She is a lawyer that will fight for you no matter what the case is. Her fees were extremely reasonable and her results were impeccable. I will recommend her to everyone I know. I wish we had many more lawyers like you Maria. Thank you

Ms. Barlow is a very beautiful and intelligent young lady who is great at her job. Once I put my case in her hands I had no worries. She finished up my case within four months of my consultation. She is very reasonable when it comes to your retainer fee and payments. I recommend her for anyone having any type of problems when it comes to child support . Thank you so much

Maria Barlow is strong,compassionate,and down to earth. Maria took my divorce case when no one would due to my background. She always kept it real with me and made me feel calm and comfortable in and out of court. She never had time for nonsense from those who liked to play games. She knows the law and gets the job done. Though I am divorced thanks to Maria, my fight with my ex is not over yet and I know Maria will be standing at my side and have my back. As a client I've never met someone so dedicated to her client (s). I'm very satisfied with Maria's service and would highly recommend her to anyone who needs an attorney.
