Debra V. O'Rourke

This woman hasn't helped with my case what so ever, she has ignored me for other clients and always says shes in the office when i call but is never there, and she never calls back. she takes things personally and she needs to learn how to do her job. she is unprofessional and is not worth the hassle.... she is probably not even worried about our case what so ever. And is going to let whatever happen, happen. A pety case is going to turn into a jail time because she doesn't know how to communicate or even what she is doing. I DO NOT RECOMMEND.

Did not answer most of my questions. She was highly detached and impersonal in her approach. Also she took nearly everything I said as some sort of personal attack; she was highly defensive, and very unfriendly. Once, ten minutes before court she asked me to wait for her in a commons are so we could ...review the details of my case. I waited over an hour before I went into the courtroom to find only judge and bailiff still present and explained why I missed my appearance. It was greatly inconvenient for me. O'Rourke did not apologize or provide me with any explanation. I'm not saying she was a bad lawyer, she just seemed to be swamped with so many cases that she just treated me like a number, not a person. She did seem very intelligent and knowledgeable, but also quite selfish and immature.

Being stuck with a public defender due to income we were given ms. O'rourk. I asked her to talk with us prior to 5 minutes before the court dates. She replied with the fact that she was on vacation for 3 days. Very knowledgable. Does not care about your personal interests or the outcome of the case. ...Easily defensive.
