Stacey Roberts

Debra handled my husbands child support & termination of child support. We needed a lawyer with experience &, she was very professional & thorough. We were very worried & had a lot of bad feelings between the mother of his child &, Debra made us feel at ease & made the case an easy one. She made sure... we were aware of all the facts & the hearing went smoothly. I believe it went that way because she was our lawyer. I would feel very comfortable to hire her again if needed.

Very Dedicated

Mrs. Crum has represented me numerous times in the past 7 years or so. She helped me to get a Domestic Relations Injunction. She has done a lot of probate work for me and my family. One example if this is setting up trust funds for my children. She also helped me in two different real estate transact...ions. She is very knowledgeable in multiple areas of law and she always thinks outside the box. I am always very satisfied with the work she does for me and I feel she always fights for my best interests.

Highly Recommended

Mrs. Crum represented me with a DOR child support case a few years ago. I was impressed with her professionalism, her knowledge of the issues, her advisement to me as her client and her compassion for her work. She understood my position and was a strong advocate for me. My case was successfully reso...lved and I was very happy with the results. So happy that, in fact, I have recently retained her again to represent me in my dissolution of marriage. I have the utmost faith in her that we will reach a successful conclusion to this case as well. I would definitely recommend her.

Real Estate Transaction

I am with a title insurance company and worked with Debra on preparing and obtaining a document needed for the closing. I enjoyed working with her. I found her to be professional, thorough and efficient. She was intent on making sure things were done correctly for her client. I would recommend her.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
