About Debra

I believe my work ethic is unsurpassed with a keen eye for problem solving and yet I will be a compassionate advocate for you.  I am a devoted wife, mother and grandmother and I understand first hand the difficulties that parents have in their co-parenting roles and the issues that arise with regard to raising children together once parties have dissolved their marriages. I am passionate with regard to my clients’ needs, financial and child-related, and will be available to work closely with you on your case.  I am dedicated to handling most details of your case myself and I am always available to answer questions. I will strive to keep your case moving forward by all means available to me. 

After working in three previous law firms since law school, I founded my own firm to offer my clients supplemental services in real estate, probate and collections in addition to my primary practice of family law.

      I highly recommend Debra as a family law attorney because she is knowledgeable, conscientious, dedicated to serving her clients' interests, and a respected litigator. She brings an extra dimension to family law practice because she recognizes and solves real estate and estate planning issues that can emerge as issues in any family law matter, including Qualified Domestic Relations Orders (QDROs).
