Professional, Aggressive, Determined

Debra was honest and upfront with me from the first day I met her. While she is an expensive attorney, she is worth it. She won't beat around the bush or sugarcoat the process for you. Divorce is emotional and difficult and having someone as aggressive and hardworking as Debra on my side gave me the ...strength and confidence to get through my divorce in one piece. Debra always managed to realign my behavior with what was actually most important in my case - my children. Sometimes while going through a divorce you forget what really matters, and she encouraged me to stand up for my children and always do what was right and best for them. I additionally had some difficulty paying my balance after my divorce concluded, however I brought it to Debra's attention immediately upon receiving my final bill and she was kind and willing to work with me to let me pay off my bill over time. She even went so far as to discount my remaining balance. I never got the impression that she was prolonging my case to rack up fees, in fact i felt that most of the actions she took saved me from expending an absurd amount of money in court. I would recommend her to anyone who wants to come out of the other side of their divorce as a stronger person.
