Janice Durbin

Barry County Prosecuting Attorney Office


Janice Lynne Durbin has a solo practice, currently dividing her time between mid-state and southwest Missouri. She is a graduate of the University of Missouri School of Law, and has a B.S. in Health Science and an M.A. in American History. She has served as a prosecuting attorney, both for the state and for municipalities, and presently does criminal defense along with a general civil practice. Animals have always been a part of her life, growing up on the farm where she now spends her time in southwest Mo. She has done volunteer work for local animal rescues and shelters. She also laughingly tells people that she has an “interspecies family,” sharing her home with two dogs and three cats.
