When in doubt call Debbie

Given an unexpected incident I found myself facing an extremely terrifying situation. Falsely accused of Domestic Violence — Debbie, was there to help assist me every step of the way and was able to get my overwhelming case DISMISSED. Her legal representation restored my faith in the justice system. ...If you're seeking legal help, call Debbie today.

Deborah fought for me 4-20 to no time served and no probation

My fiance Ryan had a felony case with frank Murphy Hall of Justice in Detroit Michigan from 2019 and was facing originally 4-20 years, He were given a court-appointed attorney that did not fight for him! meanwhile in search for a better attorney we came across Deborah just when we thought it was too... late because he had already taken a plea she reached out to us and thankfully she did. The very first court date after hiring Deborah he got his tethers off that he had for 3 years prior to having her on the case. She was extremely involved with his case and with getting Justice for his situation, she was also very understanding when it came to our financial situation which is very rare to find, she got the judge to agree to a plea on the nose and was still not happy with his sentencing we ended up leaving the courtroom June 29th with a sentencing that started from 3 to 20 years the case was suspended and adjourned Ryan had no probation and all was owed is restitution. We were very blessed to have her she is good with questions communicating and understands that we are all human. I would strongly encourage you to reach out to her at any time and hire her on your case if you want to get Justice.

Could not ask for better!!

Ms. Schlussel was everything I could ask and want for in representation. She defended my child and I adamantly and without fail. She was patient and understand of my constant worried calls. I found comfort and support in her resolve to support our fight. I won full physical and legal custody of my ch...ild because of her. She continues to be a shoulder to lend aid and support. No better person to defend you in my book!!!
