Posted by anonymous | August 13, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Child Abuse

Excellent value for money. She has a deep understanding of the law and an ability to empathize with her clients.

Our case involved unsubstantiated abuse claims by my teenage stepdaughter against her mother. The child wanted revenge for my wife calling the police on her adult boyfriend she was sneaking out with. Debra protected my sons (whom the child alleged were being mistreated) and managed to get the who...le thing settled without a trial and no adjudication - just biological parent surrenders. Good result for a sad story. Make sure to protect yourself from the DCF - they are the biggest single threat to the modern family. Would highly recommend Debra to protect you.

Dedicated and knowledgeable

Attorney Salisbury knows her subject matter. She is a fierce advocate who goes above and beyond for her clients. We felt secure knowing she had our best interests in mind and she took the time to hear our concerns.

Unhelpful

Although the office was quick in their response, I felt that they were condescending at times. I understand that Ms. Salisbury is selective in the cases she chooses however, I felt that they could have been more helpful. In the past, other attorneys have been more than willing to give me references o...r other suggestions.

As a lawyer, I am constrained by the Rules Regulating The Florida Bar in responding, but I will simply state that it is my belief that the comments are not accurate.

Grandparent interstate adoption

My husband and I retained Debra to handle the adoption of our 13 year old granddaughter in Sarasota County . She made a difficult family matter possible with her professionalism, tact and grace. She communicated very effectively with the Michigan judicial system that had jurisdiction over the guardia...nship case. Debra achieved the best possible outcome for our family with the least amount of stress . I highly recommend the legal services of Debra Salisbury and her team!
