I've worked with a few different attorneys over the years but Attorney Debski (she said to call her Katie but I have too much respect) is absolutely the best. She was easy to talk to, explained everything to me & got me what I deserved from my former boss. I can't thank her enough.
I have recommended a few family members and friends to Attorney Debski already and I'd recommend anyone who has employment troubles to give her a call. Unlike most lawyers she'll actually return your call!
Extremely knowledgeable and professional attorney - was a great help!
I consulted Katherine Debski regarding employment and disability issues. She is extremely knowledgeable, and was very helpful to me regarding my complicated situation.
