Barbara was born and raised in Cottonport, LA, a small French Catholic town in Avoyelles Parish. Cottonport is known for its annual Egg Knocking Contest, which attracts people from across the State. Barbara fondly remembers her childhood there, where many of the residents spoke French. She is the oldest of 46 grandchildren and grew up surrounded by a large family that loved to tell (often greatly exaggerated) stories.. She attended Cottonport High School. After graduating from LSU, as a woman was discouraged from applying for or attending law school. But nonetheless she persisted and was accepted to the Paul M. Hebert School of Law. During the summer months, she clerked for the Knoll Law Firm and worked with now retired Supreme Court Justice Jeannette Knoll who served as a role model to her. Barbara earned her Juris Doctorate degree in 1978, making her one of the first women in Avoyelles Parish to finish law school.. That same year, Barbara married Mark Mixon of Bunkie, LA, and together they have three children: Luke, Emily, and Molly, and 5 grandchildren. Her husband Mark is a fourth-generation sugar cane farmer and through him she learned never to take anything, especially the weather for granted. Luke, the eldest, is a Navy pilot. She, her husband, two daughters and daughter in law are all LSU graduates with her granddaughter scheduled to graduate in May. They share a love of LSU and enjoy tailgating at LSU games together.. After marrying Mark, Barbara began working at the Social Security Administration’s hearing office, which is the adjudicatory branch of the Social Security disability program. For 21 years, she worked there as a supervisor of 16 attorneys and paralegals. She left to go into private practice, and in 2013 she began working as an attorney at Neblett, Beard & Arsenault.. “Since coming to NBA, I have grown this area of practice and have come to know and care for a great many of my clients,” says Barbara. She has seen clients struggle, unable to afford basic necessities through no fault of their own. She has a deep empathy for her clients and has dedicated her life’s work to guiding people through the often-difficult process of Social Security Disability. In the thirty-three years she has practiced law, Barbara has assisted thousands of individuals in obtaining their benefits in Louisiana, Alabama, and Mississippi. She is a member of the Louisiana Bar Association and the Avoyelles and Rapides Parish Bar Associations. She is a member to two local women’s political organizations.
