Head and Shoulders Above the Rest!

Deborah Caldwell-Bono is without question the top lawyer in our area and I would offer the opinion in our state. Her knowledge and experience of course is a powerful tool, yet her patience and compassion taking the time to ask questions and understand fully, as well as explain to a non attorney what ...the ins and outs of the law and a case actually means meant the world to me and my family. She did a superior job and her dedication should be emulated by all young attorneys starting out.

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!!

She is amazing!

Debra has been there for myself and my family through the years and cuts through the chase and gets it done. She really is the best!

Farmer

Mrs. Bono took my dui case and used her expertise with the law to not only lessen my conviction but it was totally dismissed. I’ve never seen any work so hard and stayed in touch with me the whole time giving me true scenarios of my possible outcomes. I not only recommend her but would use her again ...and again. She is the best I’ve ever seen.

Driving Infraction

Deborah Caldwell is Literally the best lawyer in the Roanoke area. I contacted her with very short notice and although my case was not a simple one she took it. I decided to hire her for two reasons. The woman knows what she's talking about and she makes you feel safe. I spoke to so many lawyers that... had little interest in if I would be okay and asked me for an excessive amount of money. Deborah is fair and she cares about her clients which makes her an even better attorney. I'd suggest her to anyone. She's honest she did not promise me an outcome but she did her very best and I owe her everything. She is without hesitation the absolute best.
