About Deborah
Biography
I am an attorney and a Registered Nurse. I practiced nursing for twenty years in Boston hospitals before starting my legal career. My legal practice focuses on accident & injury law, and criminal appeals. My nursing experience is very helpful in both areas. Sometimes there are complicated medical issues on my injury cases. For the criminal cases, sometimes there are drug, alcohol, or mental health issues. I give free consultations on all cases.
I have been a member of the bar since 1990. I've been the Managing Partner of Bates & Riordan since 1999. We have had great results for our clients. If you've been injured, either the insurer is going to make a fair settlement or we'll take the case to trial and the jury will order them to pay. You don't owe us anything up front. We get paid when the insurer pays.
While our office is in Quincy, we have clients in every corner of the state. We will come to you if you cannot come to us. Our office is conveniently located on the Red Line (Braintree), at the Wollaston T stop. Accessible by the 210, 211, and 212 busses.
Let's discuss your case. I welcome your call..
