Ruthless

Debbie was fantastic. She was ruthless in the court room - the kind of attitude you want for your defense. She defended my husband against false allegations facing life in prison, and got some of the charges dropped, and the rest she defended ruthlessly and ended with not guilty from the jury. She re...ally knew what she was doing.

Excellent Attorney

We hired Deborah to defended my son 's traffic ticket for excessive speed. Had it not been for her, my son would have spent additional time in jail, paid a hefty fine, and lost his license. The case dragged on over a year and she remained in constant communication with us, keeping us updated througho...ut the ordeal. Highly recommend.

Excellent Lawyer

Today most lawyers you meet them,pay and discuss your case, then spend the rest of your time trying to reach them but you don’t even talk to them a second time until 5 min before court. Debbi goes above and beyond. She was in contact with us thru out the entire year before we went to trial. She calle...d on weekends it didn’t matter she was there. She is extremely competent and she doesn’t miss anything. She has a good relationship with the prosecutors, judges, police, and bondsman, it was very helpful that they all knew and respected her. She got us the best possible outcome. You can’t go wrong if you hire this lady. She was also kind, she treated us with respect, and made sure we understood everything that was happening.

Best lawyer in the nation

An attorney like no other! I am so very pleased to have had her to represent me in my case. She was very caring, supportive, and knew her stuff! If you are looking for THE attorney who will do the go above and beyond then look no further. I've never met an attorney like her before. The absolute best ...there is. I would give her more stars if I could. A lawyer with a heart and smarts. Truly delighted to have had the chance to work with her. She got the best possible results for me against all odds. She is absolutely a 1st class fighter in court! All my thanks go out to her!

Highly Recommend Deborah

I was referred to Deborah by another attorney in VA to assist with a traffic citation (reckless driving) in the Roanoke area. We could not have been more pleased with that recommendation and to work with Deborah on this matter. Deborah successfully secured a tremendous outcome in our favor through he...r work with the prosecutors and police. Her fee was worth every penny! She was straightforward, direct and honest helping us prepare for our court date, and it was great working with her. We are out of state, and that was not a barrier in any way working with Deborah. I couldn't recommend her more highly to anyone who needs legal assistance in the Roanoke / Blacksburg area.
