Thanks Ms. Blum for representing me on Child Custody case as your tone to the Court helped resolve difficult issues.
If you are looking for a professional Lawyer who will fight for you endlessly look no further. I had two non violent Domestic cases due to a ex girl friend that was dragging for over a year. The case was causing a hardship for my family and i. My previous lawyer assured me that a plea deal is the best i will ever get. Taking a plea deal or a lesser charge would have had major consequences on my life and employment. I began my search for a lawyer who have more experience in domestic cases. From the first conversation i had with Deborah i felt and knew i was in good hands. Deborah made no promises but assured me she will work hard and fight for the best out come in my case. Deborah and her team took extra time and effort with my case and was always available through phone ,email or text with quick responses. Deborah not only stayed true to her word, but she got my case dismissed! Deborah is aggressive , proactive, understanding and professional. Do yourself a favor and hire Deborah Blum.
I worked with Deborah for divorce proceeding involving negotiations of a child custody agreement between two different states. I would like to mention that not only Deborah was very highly professional in her legal advice but also very compassionate and understanding. Divorce negotiations and proceedings are not the easiest or most pleasant processes to go through, especially when the separation is not amicable. She was there for me every step of the way: negotiating the agreement, available for a simple advice, assisting in communicating with the opposite party, and just talking through the steps via the phone. She would respond to my text messages even during the weekend! What I was looking for in a lawyer was not for a pushy and "I can get you the best deal" kind of a lawyer but rather for a reasonable, level-headed attorney who can realistically recommend the best options in tricky negotiations. I definitely found one in Deborah. Add to that, Deborah's services are very reasonably priced and she is honest with the fee applications. Overall, I would highly recommend Deborah's services to anyone who is looking for a legal advice.
From the moment I first spoke with Deborah, I knew she was the tough, resilient lawyer I was seeking. She is extremely knowledge and informative which is ensuring when you are facing multiple charges. From her kind words and comforting actions of always being by my side form start to finish, it really exemplifies her diligence and integrity as a lawyer for the people. I highly recommend her to everyone as she truly is one of the best. Without going into much detail, from facing multiple charges Deborah was able to get my case fully dismissed and restore relief and joy to myself and my family. Thank you Deborah!
I hired Mrs. Blum from a recommendation, and I was very happy with her service. One thing I’ll tell you is she is the strongest lawyer and good lawyer, I can say she is one of the best lawyers. She handled a harassment case recently and I was very happy with the outcome. I will definitely recommend her to friends, family, neighbors and will tell them not to look elsewhere, just to hire her. I wish I can give her 10 stars.
Due to a problematic (which is putting it mildly) relationship that I should have never been in, I found myself in situations that I couldn’t believe I was caught up in. I am a responsible young professional who ended up getting arrested for a crime I didn’t commit. I consulted with other attorneys and when I met Deborah, I knew she was different. She was supportive, persistent and ended up getting my charges dismissed. Deborah and her team assisted me with the collateral consequences too and always kept me informed. If you find yourself in the terrible position of needing a criminal defense attorney, you should look no further and hire Deborah J. Blum, Esq.
I had to jump in and write a review for the Deb! I would HIGHLY recommend Deb to anyone seeking legal representation that is fair, honest and will keep your best interest and unique needs at the forefront. I was so lucky to have found her and have her represent me. I was arrested due to a fight at a club and was charge with assault. This was the first time I was ever arrested and Deb really worked with me to get my charged dismissed. She looked through all paperwork, guided me through the whole process and made sure we found ways to get the best result. I am very happy with the end result and should another situation arise, I would not hesitate to seek representation from Deborah Blum again. Thank you, Deb!
Deborah J. Blum... she certainly lives up to her name. I mean, first off, Deborah derives from the Hebrew word for bee. She has the work ethic of a bee and uses her network of 'bees' to communicate, vet, and strategize her plan of attack. If you choose to hire her, I am confident her team will at the very least sting the opposition if not lead your side into a swarming victory. My victory was more bittersweet than honeycomb, but only because I was a particularly demanding and difficult client, causing our team's position to be complicated. She is as persistent as a bee, and was able to secure my best interests in the end, even if I was unable to follow her logic at the time. Sorry to keep the analogy going, but it is almost too perfect. Deborah is also a historical name representing a heroine or prophetess, which applies to her in terms of her demonstrated track record of winning defense litigation and ability to manifest her client's interests into reality. Secondly, her last name, Blum, also has meaning for her career. The last name has Germanic roots originally meaning flower, but later evolving to mean gardener or florist. Sure, as young gay men, my boyfriend and I can objectively recognize that she is pretty like a flower, but that is not the point. Rather, she is patient like a gardener: sowing a fruitful relationship with her client and pruning her arguments to redirect her energy to the strongest 'buds.' And ultimately, she can be considered a florist of sort—arranging a beautiful portrayal of me that emphasized my best qualities to the ADA. Because of her, I can enjoy my day, move forward in life, without a record, and thrive virtually stress-free. Let me also be clear, it wasn't always sunshine and daisies, clever application of etymology, or time to break out figurative language I haven't used since high school. When it rained, Deborah picked up the phone no matter how busy, and when the communication was thrown off by New York City noise or scheduling conflicts, she was able to recover by finding the next available time to discuss new information in my case. Overall, she is highly recommended, even though I would have done some things different on my end had I been given the opportunity to hit the reset button. Cheers Deborah! **Shoutout to her assistant Alexis Kerr, she is also a gem!
Deborah is THE lawyer to hire if you’re facing domestic violence charges. She ultimately got my case dismissed. In today’s times, it’s even more terrible to be a man accused of physically assaulting a woman. Deborah was able to work her magic despite the fact that the woman who made false claims against me even had “proof” of her injuries. Deborah and the girls who work for her were fun and a blast to work with – I never thought I’d use the word fun to describe anything about this process!
Deborah Blum has provided me with legal advice and guidance during a very difficult situation/ period in my life . I found her to be experienced, responsive, personable , knowledgable and honest. While Deborah worked on my case. I felt as though my situation was in adept and trustworthy hands, and she did not steer me wrong. She was very informative and supportive every step of the way. Deborah In unvarnished truth she will tell you exactly where you stand and what direction you should go. She has tenacity coupled with a degree of tenderness but never losing site of the end goal, which is to protect, defend and have the best outcome for her client.I would highly recommend Deborah to anyone seeking legal representation. She is exceptional at her craft and very professional. Deborah will keep your best interest and unique needs at the forefront.
