I have known Deborah for over a decade. She has a sound grasp of fraud principles and law and cares about her clients and doing the best job possible to get them the best result possible as quickly as possible. If you have a car sales fraud or other Consumer Law problem and her office is anywhere near you, I recommend you call her for advice and help.
