About Debra
Biography
I have been practicing in the divorce/family law field for nearly 25 years, primarily in Nassau and Suffolk counties. It has always been my goal to involve my clients in the decisions affecting the course of their litigation, giving them the information and the "pros/cons" they need to make the decisions that are right for them. Most cases can be resolved amicably; some require court intervention. I am prepared to do both.
Outside of work, I enjoy running and photography.

Amazing Attorney
Debra handled my case in Family Court for an issue that was very daunting for me to resolve. Her attention to detail and communication as well as her understanding meant more to me than words can express.
