Divorce
While every situation is different, the time it takes to get a divorce depends heavily on whether the divorce is contested or uncontested. Uncontested divorce could take as little as two to three months, whereas contested divorce could drag on for more than a year.
Child Support
Child custody and support: You want to protect your relationship with your children. Whether you are going through a divorce or a paternity action, our goal is to make certain that you maintain your position in your child's life and to see that child support payments are fair.
Child Custody and Visitation
Family law: From divorce to child custody hearings, we help our clients through some of the most overwhelming yet important family law matters. We advocate for our clients through child custody or support modifications as well as every aspect of divorce proceedings with the goal of resolving every issue as quickly and amicably as possible.
Paternity
Spousal Support
Divorce: We bring more than 40 years of combined experience to divorce cases in Gainesville, Ocala, and throughout Florida. Divorce is always complex, because of the many issues that need to be resolved simultaneously. Our Gainesville attorneys can protect your interests in relation to property division, spousal support, and children's issues.

Criminal Defense
Kevin Quirk received a BA degree in philosophy and government in 1992 from the College of William and Mary in Virginia, and a law degree from the University of Florida in 1995. Since being admitted to the Florida Bar in 1996, Kevin has practiced almost exclusively in the area of criminal defense.
DUI/DWI
Florida prosecutors do not take drunk driving, driving under the influence (DUI) of drugs or alcohol, or driving while intoxicated (DWI) cases lightly. In fact, even first-time offenders with no criminal history or prior arrests can be subject to harsh criminal penalties and civic consequences, which can range from mandatory jail time to a suspended driver’s license.
Traffic Violations
Paying a traffic ticket is not your only option. You can fight infractions with the help of an experienced Gainesville traffic ticket lawyer at Barbarette & Quirk. People often think only about the fine associated with a traffic ticket and think that they can pay it and then the ordeal will be over. However, this is rarely the case.
Theft
Misdemeanors
Whether you have been charged with a misdemeanor theft crime or a felony, you need aggressive litigators on your side as quickly as possible. We may be able to fight for your charges being dropped or find another means of resolving the issue. Don't accept a charge or a conviction without first consulting the attorneys at our firm.
Drug Crimes
Our firm represents men and women who have been charged with any of the following drug crimes...
Assault
According to Florida state law, simple assault is defined as intentionally threatening another person with violence, while inciting fear that the act of violence will be carried out. Aggravated assault involves the use of a deadly weapon including a gun, knife, car, or any other item that could cause serious bodily harm or death.
Probation Violation
Since 2002, the Gainesville probation violation lawyers at Barbarette & Quirk have protected and defended the rights of men and women across the community. We have a combined total of more than 40 years of legal experience and understand the intricacies of Florida state and federal laws.
Homicide
Vehicular homicide: the defendant recklessly operates their vehicle with a “willful or wanton disregard for safety.” The prosecution must prove the intent element.
Shoplifting
Third-Degree Felony Theft - This offense is punishable by up to five years in jail and/or fines up to $5,000. An example of this is shoplifting property worth $300 or more.
Restraining Order
A restraining order, technically called an injunction, bars you from having any contact with the alleged victim of domestic abuse. If the victim is a wife or a live-in significant other, you may be ordered to stay out of the home and away from the children. We can educate you about your options for responding to and defending against restraining orders.
Manslaughter
If you’ve been arrested for DUI manslaughter in Florida, you must act fast. The law does not mess around when it comes to penalizing those convicted of this offense, which means you could be looking at up to 15 years in prison and thousands of dollars in fines without the right defense lawyer on your side. At Barbarette & Quirk, our Gainesville DUI manslaughter attorneys have more than 40 years of combined legal experience, during which time we have developed respected professional relationships with the same local judges and prosecutors who will likely be working on your case. We know how they think and operate, and, more importantly, we know how to build a strategic defense that will resonate with them in court. As such, you can rest assured that you are in good hands when you choose us for your defense.

Premises Liability
Premises liability: Premises liability claims refer to claims against property owners whose negligence leads to injuries to visitors. We handle claims involving slip-and-fall accidents, trip-and-fall accidents, swimming pool accidents, and any other accidents that may occur at businesses such as stores, restaurants, bars, gas stations, and elsewhere.
Property Damage
The severity of your potential sentence can vary based on a number of factors such as the number of prior DUI convictions, the level of your BAC, whether there was property damage or bodily harm caused, and if there is a presence of a minor.

Personal Injury
With more than 40 years of combined legal experience, our legal team handles each case with the goal of giving every client the strongest possible representation. When it comes to family matters and personal injury cases, we understand how important it is for you to be surrounded by an experienced, knowledgeable, and a compassionate legal team that listens to your needs and addresses every issue with your best interests in mind every step of the way.
Medical Malpractice
Medical malpractice: We stand up to doctors, nurses and other medical professionals when their negligence causes serious harm. We handle cases involving birth injuries, surgical errors, failure to diagnose cancer, other medical conditions, and more.
