Criminal defense lawyer | Feb 14

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Deborah has a reputation as one of the best criminal attorneys in Parker County, Texas. If a client of mine has a criminal case in Weatherford, I immediately send it to her. She is experienced (decades of work as a prosecutor and in private practice), and she is honest (she will never mislead a client or create false expectations). I have had the privilege of working cases with Deborah and observing how hard she fights on even the toughest ones. I not only endorse this lawyer, but I advise that you hire her for any criminal matter in Weatherford."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
