Mary Ann Barnes

Charlottesville attorney Mary Ann Barnes received her Bachelor of Arts degree and Paralegal Certificate from James Madison University in 1983. After college, she worked as a Real Estate Paralegal in Charlottesville for a few years before proceeding to law school.  In law school, she clerked for Doroshow & Pasquale, a law firm in Wilmington, Delaware. Those years were spent focusing on Workers Compensation, Personal Injury and Family Law cases. She received her Juris Doctor degree from Delaware Law School in 1988.   Shortly thereafter, she returned to Virginia and devoted the next eleven years to personal injury practice. In 1999, she joined William Tucker and Yvonne Griffin to form Tucker Griffin Barnes PC. At that time, she hoped to focus on an area of law that involved medical issues, while at the same time expand into other areas. Today her practice includes Social Security Disability, Estate Planning, Adoptions and Premarital Agreements. Quite an eclectic mix!   "I enjoy being part of a law firm that is committed to providing the highest caliber of legal representation while at the same time maintaining its hometown perspective. We strive to represent the members of this community. Our goal at Tucker Griffin Barnes is not to be a mass production mega firm. Each department is an intimate group led by a partner and staffed with highly qualified individuals. Every one of my clients gets my personal attention."   Please contact our firm to discuss your case. Ms. Barnes understands the difficulty you're facing.
