Our Practice Areas

Barrix Law Firm is led by Jason S. Barrix, an experienced trial attorney and litigator with vast experience in both civil and criminal matters. Our law practice focuses on providing aggressive and effective representation in personal injury law and criminal defense. We dedicate our full resources and attention to protecting our clients’ rights.

Personal Injury

If you’ve been injured or harmed due to negligence or recklessness, you may be entitled to compensation for your medical bills, lost wages, property damage, and pain and suffering. We fight tirelessly on behalf of personal injury plaintiffs. Whether we’re negotiating with insurance companies or presenting evidence in court, our goal is to hold all responsible parties accountable for their actions so that you can move forward with your life. Our personal injury practice areas include:

  • Auto & Motorcycle Accidents: Assisting victims of crashes involving cars, trucks, commercial vehicles, and motorcycles.
  • Slip & Falls (Premises Liability): Holding property owners responsible for dangerous conditions and hazards.
  • Catastrophic Injuries: Pursuing justice for individuals who have experienced brain injuries, spinal cord damage, or disfigurement.
  • Wrongful Death: Helping families who have lost a loved one due to negligence or intentional torts, such as violent crimes.

Criminal Defense

Being charged with a crime can have a devastating impact on your life, freedom, and future, including where you can work and live. We provide vigorous legal representation for individuals who are facing allegations of misdemeanor or felony charges. The presumption of innocence is a fundamental part of the American legal system. You are innocent until proven guilty, and all criminal charges must be proved beyond a reasonable doubt, which is the highest legal standard of proof.

Our goal is to protect your rights and mitigate the consequences of any arrest or allegations. Our criminal defense practice areas include:

  • DUI/OWI: Defending against charges of operating while intoxicated.
  • Drug Crimes: Handling cases involving possession, distribution, and manufacturing.
  • Assault & Battery: Representing clients accused of violent crimes or domestic violence.
  • Theft & Property Crimes: Addressing charges from shoplifting to burglary.
  • License Restoration: Helping qualified applicants restore their driving privileges.
