The Barrera Law Firm, PC

Divorce
Divorce law in the state of Texas is governed by the Texas Family Code. Texas is a community property state. What does this mean and how does this impact a divorce case?
Child Support
Child support is a legal term meaning court-ordered payments, typically made by a noncustodial parent, to support one’s minor child or children. As there can be many different circumstances within each case of child support it is important to know your rights as a parent and the law concerning child support.
Child Custody and Visitation
Mr.Barrera and his law firm did a very great an professional job in handling a very tough situation me and my wife have had been dealing with trying to gain child custody, they help us achieve what me and my wife needed to put our heart and mind at ease very professional and patience with us, thank you Mr. Barrera and your staff for amazing help.I highly recommend Mr.Barrera and his law firm
Adoption
Guardianship
Guardianship may be necessary when a person is no longer able to take care of themselves, and there is a risk to them unless someone steps into their shoes and takes full legal responsibility for them.
Spousal Support
Texas law allows for spousal maintenance. But the divorcing couple must have been married for at least 10 years in order for spousal maintenance to be a possibility. Spousal Maintenance may also be ordered upon a finding of family violence against the party that would pay.

Criminal Defense
The best advice is not to drink and drive at any time. But if you do and get arrested, then you should seek immediate legal assistance. The attorneys at the Barrera Law Firm are experts in Texas criminal law and can aggressively defend your rights. We’re there to stand by you when you need us most!
DUI/DWI
It’s never a good idea at any time to drive under the influence of alcohol. But if you or someone you love has, then you need to know what to expect if you get arrested in Texas for driving while intoxicated (DWI) or, if you are a minor, driving under the influence (DUI).
Wrongful Death
Sara Stapleton Barrera is a graduate of the prestigious Trial Lawyers College and has apprenticed under one of the most formidable trial attorneys in Texas for over 10 years. During that time, she has successfully obtained favorable outcomes in multiple trials. Ms. Barrera was recognized with the Brenda Tso Rising Young Lawyer Recipient and is the former President of the Cameron County Bar Association. Ms. Barrera also served on the Texas State Bar Disciplinary Committee for her region. Ms. Barrera has practiced in Constitutional Law, Criminal Defense, and Complex Civil Litigation and Wrongful Death.
Traffic Violations
I chose Mr. Barrera to represent me for a traffic violation after hearing good reviews. Mr. Barrera and his paralegal Natasha were extremely helpful throughout my case. He is reasonable with what he charges, definitely great with client communication, is very informative of the laws and provides good feedback with your worries. I highly recommend him and will continue to chose him if I have future issues!
Robbery
Misdemeanors
In Texas–which is a zero-tolerance state–you can be charged with DWI even if your blood alcohol level falls below the accepted maximum of.08%. A first offense for a DWI is a class B misdemeanor. However, if you are arrested with a blood alcohol of.12% or higher, you may face felony charges, particularly if you have been convicted of a DWI in the last 10 years or caused an accident with injuries.

Property Damage
If your vehicle was damaged in a motor vehicle accident as a result of another’s negligence, you are entitled to have your vehicle repaired, to be reimbursed for the loss of use while your vehicle is being repaired, and for the diminished value to your vehicle even after being fully repaired. If your vehicle was determined to be a total loss, then you are entitled to the fair market value of your vehicle immediately prior to the collision. Unfortunately, some insurance companies seem to make property damage issues and disputes part of their regular business practices. Whether it is placing a high burden of proof on the accident victim, or delaying payments without justification, bad faith insurance practices can become frustrating and cost the accident victim money. Delays and practices that result in property damage issues can violate Texas law.

Personal Injury
Ricardo Alonzo Barrera has been practicing law since 2010. During his career, Mr. Barrera has won numerous awards, including Graduate of the Law Decade from The Texas Tech University School of Law, where he earned his Doctor of Jurisprudence. Mr. Barrera has worked in multiple areas of complex civil litigation including family law, personal injury, healthcare, and probate. Mr. Barrera has been a legal correspondent for two major local news networks and has provided education seminars to his local colleagues. Mr. Barrera is currently attending Harvard University in pursuit of an additional graduate degree.

Trusts and Estates

Wills
For assistance with will contests in the South Texas regions of Harlingen, Brownsville, and McAllen, contact The Barrera Law Firm.
Trusts
The probate process is not well understood by many but can have real effects on those that stand to inherit an estate at the time of a loved one’s death. If you do not plan your estate correctly, your loved ones, such as your dependents and spouse, could be put in a financially constricting situation at the time of your death. Not all estates are subject to the probate process. Living trusts, for example, can be created in order to avoid this process. Knowing about probate and how it can effect your surviving family members at the time of your death is an important part of being able to understand what you need to do in terms of planning your estate.
Power of Attorney
A Durable Power of Attorney is a legal document that lets individuals appoint a person they trust to take control of their finances in the event they are unable to manage their assets themselves. These are the situations in which DPOA may be needed...
Probate
Letters Testamentary can’t simply be drafted by an attorney and sent for signing – a court with jurisdiction over the deceased person’s estate must grant Letters. The best way to get to court as quickly as possible is to work with an attorney experienced in probate law. A good attorney will help with the necessary paperwork and should be able to help settle any nerves you may feel about going to court. No two cases involving Letters Testamentary are the same. It is best to work with an attorney that understands and has experience with the intricacies that can be involved.
