Because of Her, We Had Hope.

We hired Ms. Kimelman for our case, and from the very beginning, she fought for our daughter and fiercely advocated for her and our entire family. She was always professional and available when we had questions, offering guidance and support whenever we needed it. Throughout the court process, she ne...ver backed down from a challenge and consistently stood by our side. Her knowledge of family law especially when it involves children is exceptional, and it truly made a difference in our case.

Did not choose divorce, but I am thankful I chose Deborah S. Kimelman as my attorney.

Deborah has been the most supportive and understanding counsel navigating me through dissolution of marriage. I am so happy I hired her over all the other attorneys I interviewed.

Debbie is knowledgeable, Compassionate and Effective- The Attorney you want on your side!!!!

After a frustrating and stressful experience with my first attorney (first 19 months of my divorce), I was honestly losing hope — until I was referred to Debbie. From the very first meeting, she restored my confidence and gave me the support and hope I needed. She restored my faith in the legal pro...cess. Debbie didn't just see me as a case, she saw me as a person who needed strength, guidance and compassion during one of the most challenging times in my life. At the consultation meeting Debbie said to me: "I practice law to help people like you, not to get rich". That sentence stuck with me, and I knew immediately that she was the attorney I wanted by my side. Debbie stepped into my case seamlessly with professionalism, compassion, and always one step ahead, making the complex legal process feel manageable and much less intimidating. Debbie was always very transparent, answered every question with clarity, VERY responsive and always made me feel like a priority. She fought for my family's future and made sure my voice was finally heard. Thanks to her strategy and genuine care, my divorce was resolved efficiently and with far less stress than I ever thought possible. I am so thankful I trusted Debbie to guide me through this difficult time. If you are looking for an attorney who will truly fight for you and get the job done right, I highly recommend Debbie. She is the one you want on your side.
