Heather Barbieri, founding attorney of Barbieri Law, has spent more than 25 years defending individuals facing the most serious and high-stakes criminal charges in Texas. Known for her strategic mindset and unyielding dedication, she has earned a reputation as one of the most formidable defense attorneys in the state. Heather has successfully represented clients accused of complex offenses such as sexual assault, false allegations, and internet-related crimes—cases that demand both precision and compassion. Her record speaks for itself: over two decades without losing an assault trial by jury. Heather’s leadership is defined by collaboration and meticulous preparation. She developed a 115-point defense checklist to ensure no aspect of a case is ever overlooked, and she draws on the collective insight of her legal team to find creative, effective solutions. Her clients are never treated as case files but as people whose dignity deserves protection. This approach has not only led to courtroom victories but also to the restoration of countless lives disrupted by accusation and uncertainty. Her accomplishments have been widely recognized. Heather is Board Certified in criminal law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization, has been continuously named to the Texas Super Lawyers list since 2013, and has earned honors such as D Magazine’s Best Lawyers in Dallas and Texas Monthly’s Top Women Lawyers. She has served as President of both the Texas Criminal Defense Lawyers Association and the Collin County Criminal Defense Lawyers Association, and is a Fellow of the Honorable Curt B. Henderson Inn of Court. Through every role, Heather’s guiding principle remains the same: every client deserves the strongest defense possible.
