Unbelievable representation

So I was charged with 3rd degree retail fraud for something that was a clear and obvious mistake, so much so that I was content with handling the case with the court appointed lawyer they had assigned to me who clearly didn’t have my best interest in mind. The court appointed lawyer pushed me to acce...pt a plea agreement that would not have been the most beneficial, so I decided to hire my own lawyer, and came across Attorney Debbie Schlussel who immediately came in upon being retained and paid great dividends. She took me from possibly having this charge placed on my permanent record and facing some form of probation, to getting the case thrown out all together. I’ll forever grateful for her work on my case and her overall care for my well being. She’s amazing.

Defender of names!

I hired Attorney Deborah K. Schlussel for my case, and she accepted my case with a plan to defend my name, utilizing the platform of court proceedings. Counselor Schlussel appeared on time for each court appearance, she was well prepared communicating with prosecutors, and she new what was right! I... was facing criminal charges due to false charges, and due to the fist of Counselor Schlussel, we won my case and I got cleared of the false charge! Thank you, Counselor Schlussel!

Excellent Attorney

She is an excellent attorney. I was facing a serious charge of which I was not guilty. No one want to take on case not enough money. But not only did she take on my case. But kept me informed about everything every step on the way. She fought very hard in my behalf even though they tried to pressure...d me to settle she listened to me and fought. She's was able to get a dismissal She truly the best

Great attorney

Deborah was on top of my case from start to finish. She was always there to answer my questions and did a very through job in and out. I’d highly recommend her, she put a lot of effort into my case and the outcome was better than I hoped for. I’d recommend her to anyone any day.

Excellent Lawyer, 10/10 experience!

I hired Debbie for a Probation Violation hearing. She was very proficient and ended really saving me. Her pricing is fair as well. I would highly recommend hiring her. She’s a real professional.
