At the Law Office of Barbara E. McNamara, we follow a new and different approach to divorce and family law.
We understand that when clients come to us, they are coming with some of the biggest, most critical issues they'll be facing in their lifetimes. While we can't make the resolution of some of these issues easy, we can make them easier, and that's what we do, by:
- Working to attain maximum settlements that meet the goals of our clients for their new lives, and
- Insulating our clients from the pain, hassles and indignities that have so long been associated with divorce and family law cases
My name is Barbara E. McNamara.
I'm a wife and working mom with two small children, very much attuned to the demands placed on today's modern family. For over 10 years, I've been a solo practitioner. My office was in Newport Beach, California for 9 years, and in 2008 my office moved to Garden Grove in order to be closer to the Family Law Court house.
Over 10 years of proven experience.
I've fought—and won—for many, many clients for over 10 years. I specialize in divorce and family law—I don't do contracts, or personal injuries, or criminal cases, just family law. Basically, I've done what one of my law professors told me to do so many years ago—I've taken one thing and learned to do it very, very well.
Speaking of professors, I received my BA degree from the from University of California, San Diego. I graduated from Western State University law school in 1995, and passed the California State Bar Exam in 1997.
After practicing for some years, I decided to become a California State Bar Certified Family Law Specialist. This extra step of specialization wasn't just to add another title to my name, but to ever increase my advantage for my clients. When you come to me, you know that you have come to someone commited to providing the best possible experience for your case.
What makes us different.
- We specialize in divorce & family law specialists—it's all we do.
- Over 10 years of proven experience with all kinds of cases.
- Belief that your children don't have to suffer.
- Willingness to fight for the underdog.
- Affordable rates, financing available.
The personal touch.
In a sense, my clients are almost an extended family to me. I get to know and work with each one personally—I have no junior lawyers that I turn them over to. I take a personal interest in every case and give each one my all, just as I did when I represented my older brother in his divorce last year.
