Truly the best

I was facing 3 serious felonies. Mrs. Caldwell-bono walked me through the entire process, explained everything in detail and gave her opinions but ultimately left every decision to me. I couldn’t have asked for a better result, I have no felonies! I can continue to live my normal life. Debra is the b...est that Roanoke has to offer!!

The absolute BEST

Deb is the absolute BEST! She is in your corner and believes in her clients. She has personally gotten my butt out of the fire twice now, once in 2020 and once recently (which she got my case 100% dismissed!!). She knows the prosecutors and judges since she's been in this profession for so long. Ther...e's no one, and I mean no one else, I would want representing me on a case. She goes above and beyond for her clients. Worth every penny. If you want the best legal representation in Roanoke, go with Deborah! I would give her more than 5 stars if I could!

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.
