She is the Attorney who will fight for you

Attorney Debi Rumph took our case. We were being sued by a landlord for unfounded charges and false repairs needed to be done. They kept our deposit, and wanted more. She not only got the deposit, and damages, but also had them pay her fees as well. we could not be happier with her services a...nd I would highly recommend her to anyone needing Tenant/Landlord help. I can only imagine that this win is one of many she is the best!! Kind, understanding and very personable to our case. Good Luck Debi Rumph in your practice and all endeavors.

Waste of time and money

She had ideas about damages I could seek that I hadn't thought of, and I felt confident in her strategy and abilities so paid her $1500. Unfortunately years later, she has been wholly ineffective and just repeatedly expressed her lack of confidence in her ability to litigate the case successfully. She played no role in getting the collection attempt by my old property manager off my credit report-I did that on my own. She had no idea I wasn't on a month to month lease despite my furnishing her a copy of the annual lease. She asked me to find an expert to determine the value of my vintage wardrobe destroyed by the mold which was so severe the floor had rotted through in my apartment. This was after I sent actual receipts, which she then asked me to put on a spreadsheet for her. She had no idea how I could find such a person, but insisted it was necessary. Attorney Rumph also said after the fact that neither her fees nor the other attorneys fees were likely to be recoverable. She did nothing at all to help and just gave reason after reason why she couldn't or shouldn't move forward. It really seemed like she doesn't believe she can successfully argue on behalf of tenants. I wouldn't waste money on what turns out to be a consultation.

Ms. Spears, as I informed you in a letter this afternoon, I not only got you the relief that you sought, but I offered you additional free repeated, emergency services. It was in those free services that I advised you as to the weaknesses in your case. I did not make your facts or your evidence. From this review, it appears as if you are dissatisfied with every attorney and landlord that you come into contact with. It all appears to all spiral into conflict. I am sorry that I cannot fix that. I also think that your review contains misstatements of fact. As I have repeatedly told you, I hope that life gets better for you, and I wish you well.

Awesome

Trying to work through many issues with my landlord.. Her assistant gave me great advice and SHE called me, texted me, emailed me, and personally talked to me and made sure I had enough information to battle my PM... all on a consultation I really hope my issue doesn't need to move to litigation b...ut Debi will be my first call for me and my other neighbors, too!

Extremely professional, and stays on top of your case

Awesome lawyer. I had ac issue in the house I was renting and the leasing company toiled around with fixing the AC unit for over a year. They keep just band aiding the issues. My entire family was sick on and off all year when I finally realized there must be mold and tested for it and sure eno...ugh the ac handler had mold in it. They then took 2 weeks just to come out and check it and another week to replace it. By this time I had already moved my family into another house and broke the lease. Debi not only got me my $1600 security deposit back and got us legally out of the lease 6 months early but also retrieved $2000 for back rent. Debi was awesome through the entire deal which the rental company attempted to drag out. She was on top of it week by week and kept me informed through email and phone calls through the e tire process. If you are looking for a lawyer who cares look no farther. She will fight for you tooth and nail and get you the best deal possible. Stop looking for a lawyer and call her ASAP and by the way she’s very reasonable. Thx so much Debi for all your help!!!!!!!

Phenomenal attorney

Debi represented me when my landlord refused to return my deposit. She kept me well informed of everything that was happening with my case. In the end my landlord wanted to settle out of court thanks to Debi. I highly recommend Debi, she's phenomenal at what she does.
