Down to Earth and Great to Work With!

Debra is a great attorney! She is down-to-earth and not one of those stuck up attorneys. She handled my case with professionalism throughout the entire litigation. I constantly received emails from her giving me updates on the case and I never doubted for a second that she wasn't on top of it! If you... need an attorney for contract disputes or securities issues, she is the one to go to!

Avvo Rating

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.
