Farrar J. Barker
Farrar focuses her practice on representing private, public and non-profit entities and individuals in a variety of transactional matters, including formation and organization, corporate governance, securities and financing, business transactions and planning, contract preparation and negotiation, and intellectual property protection.
Farrar invests in knowing her clients’ businesses and industries, allowing her to better anticipate strategic advantages and manage risk for her clients.
Farrar represents clients across a wide range of industries, including real estate, hospitality, technology, defense, manufacturing and health care. Her representation includes clients of all sizes and at all stages – from start-ups to publicly traded companies. Farrar enjoys helping her clients grow and expand their businesses through financing, private securities offerings, joint ventures and acquisitions. She regularly assists individuals and companies of all sizes in the purchase, sale and combination of businesses.
Farrar began her practice with the law firm of Alston & Bird LLP in its corporate transactions and securities group, and practiced with the law firm of Clark Partington before forming Barker Williams, PLLC and Shoreline Title, LLC. Farrar and her husband, Kelly, moved to Santa Rosa Beach in 2012 to be close to their families. They are active in their church and the community, and they have a heart for serving youth. When not in the office, Farrar loves spending time with Kelly, their three children and two dogs somewhere outdoors – usually at the beach, the lacrosse field or the golf course. Farrar is licensed to practice law in Florida and Georgia.
