Barbara Craig Email & Phone Number

An attorney in private practice for more than a decade, my focus is on developing creative legal solutions that provide the best possible outcomes for my clients. It has been said that justice is blind, but I find that is not always the case. I prefer that justice be fair, and I am tireless in my pursuit of equitable and dignified treatment for my clients. Immediately after high school, I began my career in the US Navy, seeking financial assistance for my education, the opportunity to see the world, and a desire for adventure. Starting as an Engineman, I worked on diesel engines, air conditioning systems, and hydraulic systems. Later, I moved up to maintaining gas turbine engines and their electronic systems, eventually teaching at the Gas Turbine Technician A-school at Naval Station Great Lakes outside Chicago.After 10 years with the Navy and collecting a B.S. in electronics management from Southern Illinois University, I received a scholarship to attend Syracuse University’s College of Law, graduating magna cum laude in 2003 with a Juris Doctor degree, and academic distinctions including dean’s list and membership in the Justinian Honor Society.Although I’ve found success as an attorney-at-law, I’ve never forgotten my roots; growing up in humble surroundings, working as a mechanic and technician for a decade in the Navy, and becoming the first and only member of my immediate family to graduate from college. I like to think that my background equips me with empathy for the challenges my clients often face, and at the same time, the toughness, determination, and legal knowledge necessary to provide them with effective representation.My areas of practice are estate planning, probate law, bankruptcy, landlord/tenant law, and traffic/DUI defense. In my spare time, I am an avid scuba diver, world traveler, and voracious reader. I am married to my best friend and currently reside within walking distance of the beach here in San Pedro where he proposed to me.

Listed skills include Estate Planning, Courts, Legal Writing, Civil Litigation, and 9 others.
