About

If I could summarize what I do in one sentence, I would say that my job is to help people achieve peace of mind knowing that they’ve planned for the future and their family will be taken care of if anything ever happens to them. Two of my grandparents suffer from Alzheimer’s disease. I’ve seen firsthand how the death or disability of a loved one can cause a family to self-destruct. That’s why I chose to dedicate my career to this field. As an estate planning attorney, I’m passionate about creating estate plans for my clients that:(1) Promote family harmony and ensure that both personal and financial goals are realized; and(2)  Are affordable and understandable.As an elder law attorney, I work with older adults and their families to minimize the risks of long-term care. In particular, I seek to protect clients’ assets while at the same time helping them qualify for Medicaid or other public assistance to defray the escalating cost of nursing homes. Finally, in the area of probate, I navigate clients through the court system and make certain that their loved one’s estate is dealt with effectively and as quickly as the law allows.I believe that the practice of law is not just about performing legal services for my clients, but also about building relationships. I take pride in providing my clients with personal attention, promptly returning telephone calls and emails and clearly communicating every step of the way. I want my clients to be comfortable with the process. I try to accommodate my clients whenever possible, meeting with them in their homes, offices or other convenient locations and scheduling appointments during evening and weekend hours. Drawing on my personal background as well as my legal experience, I explain in laymen’s terms — not lawyer jargon — the available options and my recommendations based on each client’s unique circumstances. In so doing, I sincerely hope to earn my clients’ friendship in addition to their professional respect.To learn more, visit my website www.tylerrbarrettlaw.com.

Very professional with excellent people skills. He returned my phone calls and emails quickly. I liked the fact he took time to answer my questions regarding setting up my will and forming a LLC for my part time business. I recommended him to several friends and family members for their legal needs.

I needed an OK probate for my fathers estate. Tyler was recommended to me by an oil company drilling in OK. He was very easy and effective to work with. He keep me infromed during the entire process. Tyler's fee came in under his estimate. I would definitely recommend Tyler to anyone in need of probate type services. (but not limited to probate)

One of my brothers, who lived in the Norman area, passed away in 2015. We, another brother and I, were referred to Mr. Barrett, and stopped in to his office without an appointment. He was able to meet with us and despite not having time to prepare for us, was gracious enough to discuss how we could settle probate for our deceased brother. My brother died without a will; I was established as the personal representative for his estate. Even though I live in California, Mr. Barrett assured us that he could manage the process effectively. Throughout the process, I was impressed with Mr. Barrett's calm manner, knowledge, as well as, his detailed and clear communication. Probate is a lengthy process and it was comforting to know I could count on quickly being able to talk with Mr. Barrett about any matters that arose. His advice and counsel was extremely beneficial during many stages of the proceedings including not only probate court matters, but also, the short-sale of my brother's house. I felt like I was in very competent hands the entire way. I highly recommend Mr. Tyler Barrett for anyone needing help with probate matters.

Mr. Barrett was very helpful during a difficult time in our lives. We were not expecting to have to do a probate but he helped us in a very competent and kind manner. He also helped me with establishing a Will for my children and gave me options to choose from that would benefit my family. I would highly recommend him!!

My father was a resident of Oklahoma and passed away leaving me as executor of his estate. His estate was required to go through the probate courts and I am not a resident of Oklahoma. While doing a search of probate attorney's in Oklahoma City, I found a listing for Mr. Barrett and contacted him. I set up an appointment and was greatly impressed with his professional manner and knowledge of the probate courts and procedures I would need to follow. I made the decision to retain him and it was a decision I will never regret. I was able to return to my home in another state and Mr. Barrett completed the probate proceedings in my absence and coordinated mailings to me and my sister who reside in the US and my brother who resides outside the US. While having an estate go through probate can be challenging, Mr. Barrett was able to make the experience manageable...something I greatly appreciated after the loss of my father. I would highly recommend Tyler R. Barrett to anyone seeking assistance with estate planning, probate or elder law. Thank you, Tyler.

Attorney Barrett was hired by a California attorney to help us with a home my brother owned in Norman, OK. Not only did he help with managing the probate, when we needed help with another important matter, Attorney Barrett jumped in and did what was needed. He is careful, thoughtful, and professional. He was prompt with returning phone calls and messages. He helped me get through a very difficult situation with kindness and compassion. I think very highly of this attorney and I don't hesitate to recommend him.

My husband and I finally got started on the process of making wills. We knew very little about how to go about the process and Tyler Barrett was very good at walking us through the process. We now both have wills. We were very happy with both his expertise and his manner. We will continue to use his services as our needs develop. We recommend him highly for estate planning services.

Mr. Barrett handled the Probate on my parents estate. He was a joy to work with. He was very professional, knowledgeable, and efficient. Although I live in a different State, he handled everything without me having to travel back and forth. He was always available if I had any questions and always kept me informed. His fees were very reasonable, and he was compassionate during a very difficult time in my life. Even though my case was complete, he made himself available if I had any further questions. I highly recommend Mr. Barrett.

I engaged Mr. Barrett to handle the writing of a new will, to update a number of legal health care documents and for advice on Medicaid eligibility for myself given that I was making a large gift to my children. Mr. Barrett took care of all these matters with great skill and precision. He was very good at explaining how things worked, what the options were and what the ramifications of each option would likely be. His explanations of things were clear and free of legal jargon. He is very personable, friendly, and eager to help. I would have no hesitation in recommending him to my family or friends who have estate or elder law issues.

I am an attorney in Seattle, Washington. I was referred to attorney Tyler Barrett for guidance and assistance in transferring ownership of certain oil and mineral rights located in Oklahoma to an heir in an Estate pending in Washington. An ancillary probate proceeding was required in Oklahoma to accomplish that transfer. Mr. Barrett undertook the representation of the ancillary Estate in Oklahoma. I was immediately impressed with his prompt response and attention to our matter. Mr. Barrett was knowledgeable in applicable law, extremely efficient in processing the Estate, and a pleasure to work with. His fees were reasonable considering his experience and knowledge. I would have no reservations in referring other clients needing legal assistance in the State of Oklahoma to Mr. Barrett.
