A former defense attorney, Kristopher S. Barber now represents plaintiffs in personal injury and wrongful death litigation. The founder of The Barber Law Firm located in Plano, Texas, he assists clients in the Dallas-Fort Worth metropolitan area and throughout the state who have been harmed by the negligence of others in cases involving wrongful death, premises liability, motor vehicle collisions, motorcycle wrecks, construction site accidents, pedestrian knockdowns and tractor-trailer accidents. His previous experience allows him to anticipate the defense strategies that companies and insurance companies might attempt to employ at trial.

Mr. Barber grew up in Plano and attended Texas A&M University as an undergraduate, majoring in psychology and receiving a Bachelor of Arts cum laude in 1996. He then pursued his legal studies at SMU Dedman School of Law and was awarded his Juris Doctor in 1999.

Mr. Barber is an active participant in several legal organizations. His memberships include the State Bar of Texas, the American Association for Justice, the Dallas Trial Lawyers Association, and The Patrick E. Higginbotham American Inn of Court. The successful outcomes that he has been able to obtain on behalf of his plaintiff clients have earned him the respect of his fellow attorneys, as evidenced by his receipt of an AV Preeminent* peer review rating through Martindale-Hubbell and a 10.0 "Superb" peer review rating through Avvo.

These comments were made by fellow attorneys during the annual nomination process.

“Kris is one of the best lawyers I've worked with. He knows the law around a PI case better than anyone I know. He is especially crafty with procedure and pre-trial issues. He is a litigator, not a marketer who settles everything that comes in. No one should be listed in this publication ahead of him.”

“Kris is a great lawyer who has a way with clients to make them feel comfortable and calm. He is a great mentor and as a young attorney, I have learned a great deal from him.”
