Debra J Burdette

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.

I went with my friend for a consultation on her situation. Debra was so warm, caring and professional . She took my friend in early than her appointment time. She listened to my friend and gave helpful suggestions. She also encouraged questions from my friend and I. As a professional myself, I ca...n tell Debra is an awesome attorney that you can share your heart and life stories. She will support you when you need that right person to go down a journey that is not so pleasant. Thank you for your time Debra!

I discovered Debra on Avvo and based on the great reviews decided to contact her. I'm so glad that I did. My first impression of Debra was that she was too nice to be an attorney but during our initial meeting the claws came out and I thought that I would NOT want to sitting across from this woman in... court. I immediately hired for a civil matter and subsequently hired her for a family matter. Whenever I communicate with her, I never feel as if I'm being billed in 15 minute increments. She cares about her clients and their welfare. She gives a lot of herself to her clients and it's obvious that she really cares. I can't say enough about her and will continue to hire Debra for any matter that may come up.

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.

Debra is amazing. She is both incredibly knowledgable and effective as an attorney but also very warm and compassionate. This trait can be really important when one is going through a difficult divorce. She goes above and beyond in a major way, as evidenced by a recent unrelated scare during which sh...e made herself available to me, consulted with other attorneys in that field of law, and helped me to remain calm. I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone dealing with the difficult and complicated field of family law.
