Effective, caring and stands for you

I've worked with many attorneys over the years and when it came to negotiating a new support agreement, I was impressed with how Debra made an enormous difference for me, my ex-wife and subsequently my adult children. For many family lawyers it seems it's all about collecting more and more billabl...e hours regardless of the outcome. Debra, instantly took charge of the negotiation met with me and my ex separately and helped craft an agreement that worked. I trust Debra and highly recommend her to you!

Trustworthy

Debra did an incredible job of helping me navigate the divorce process quickly, efficiently, and with the results that I wanted. I was impressed from start to finish on how my case was handled. At every step of the way, I felt that Debra and rest of the staff were knowledgeable, responsive, and suppo...rtive in one of the hardest periods of my life. I was recommended to Debra by my sister (also an attorney) who knew her work first hand from environmental law cases they'd collaborated on and from law school. I had been trying to manage the divorce process myself and was frustrated and overwhelmed. My sister spoke so highly of Debra as both an attorney and a person. I am so grateful I took her advice and went in for a consultation. Divorce is a highly unpleasant, stressful experience. But, if you find yourself in this position, you want someone like Debra right behind you. I felt like I had the perfect advocate for my situation.

Cool under pressure

Debra helped me with a hard child custody case. The case was hard partly because events kept changing with the other parent from one court date to the next. She is extremely organised and she was somehow able to keep everything straight for me. At times it was very hard emotionally and I felt like gi...ving up, but Debra helped me stay focused. With her help, I got the best outcome I could have hoped for. I am truly grateful I had her on my team. She is smart, articulate, cool under pressure, and very funny, which helped me get through some of the worst moments. If I ever need help again, I will want to have Debra helping me.

Highly recommended

After it was badly mishandled by my previous family law attorney, Debra took over my case, undid the mess, and made everything right. She conducted business in a very fair, professional, and compassionate way. She presented the options available at every turn in as much detail as requested and gave... informed council when her advice was sought. Highly recommended.

Affordable attorneys

Debra just helped me and my fiancée finalize our prenuptial agreement and we couldn't be happier. She went above and beyond even helping us out over the weekend when we had more questions during a very time sensitive time period. Would definitely use her again if need be, probably one of the most aff...ordable attorneys in Torrance, CA as well.
