Super Lawyer Debra S. White is personable, professional, and communicates clearly to her client, their family and the court. She always appears in court prepared--and she never drops the ball. Observing her in court hearings, even when seemingly nothing of import was happening, Debra set the case groundwork and pushed the pea forward towards her envisioned positive outcome. Our family witnessed, time and again, Debra's extraordinary facility in dealing with a sometimes semi-hostile court environment. Her body language is confidant, always accompanied by a big smile: she's on, she is ready, and you understand you're in the very best of hands. She won our case. Michelle H.

Debra White and her partner are AWESOME!!!!!!!. August 2018, I was looking at 30 yrs in Federal prison. I asked a friend can you get me the best of the best Attorney he recommended, Ms. White. I called her, and a lot of my fears subsided. She made me feel that she should fight for me and give me her best, and she did just that. I ended up getting a LOT less than I anticipated; my co-conspirator received between 5 to 21 years, and I received home confinement. She was the angel I need. If you are ever in legal trouble, do not hesitate to call on her.

It was August 7, 2018 when my life turned upside down. My wife and I just woke up, ready to continue with our day to day when we were faced with 12 armed, homeland security agents at out front door. Now as I look back with all of this behind me, I was beyond lucky to have a friend who gave me Debrah White’s phone number, to which she teamed up with Karen Goldstein. They walked me through every possible scenario and ultimately I was facing maximum sentence of 30 years behind bars. It was definitely the most tumultuous and detrimental 2 years of my life. My Coconspirators received four, five and 21 years of prison. Meanwhile my lawyers fought their hardest and because of them I got one year of home confinement with 3 years of probation. While the sentencing I received versus what I should have gotten speaks volumes it does them no justice. Not only did they put up with me for two years but they are brilliant, fearless, and fought as if I were their family just to get me the best possible outcome. This may seem implausible, I pretty much thought the same thing. A while back I was reading some of the testimonies from Debra’s and Karen’s past clients I figured that maybe their cases were less difficult or at the least just completely different than mine. But after two years of many battles (big and bigger) I can tell you that they are capable of what seems like the impossible. Thank you Debra and Karen for dragging me every step of the way out of that long, dark tunnel.

Debra White is not only an incredible attorney, but a wonderful person as well. From the start with my case, she showed extreme determination and commitment to help me get the best possible outcome. She was extremely professional and I did not have a single doubt that she was doing everything she could to assist me with my situation. Her experience and knowledge shows immensely, and was the contributing factor to help me get the best outcome possible. I am so blessed that I was able to work with Debra, and anyone that retains her as a lawyer would be lucky to have her!

absolutely the best attorney out there! On top of being as thorough and diligent as you can hope for, she really spends the time and makes the effort to get to know you. My case file was extremely large with a whole lot going on. I am convinced that Had I chosen any other attorney to handle my case, I would be sitting back behind bars yet again. My offer was 16 years and 8 months, Instead I am back at work providing for my family with ZERO jail time. If you are in a jam and need a lawyer that you can trust, look no further cause there isn’t anyone out there that can get better results. THANK YOU DEBRA!!!!!

I was falsely accused of kidnapping and rape, and faced spending the rest of my life in prison. From the first time that I contacted Debra, I knew that she believed in my case and would do her absolute best in protecting me. She is not just an excellent lawyer, but she is an even better person. Debra is so humble and hardworking, and does not seek glory like many other lawyers. She values honesty and integrity. Debra truly has a heart of gold. She has an amazing life story, and I believe that helps her connect with all kinds of people (especially jurors) and deal with extreme adversity. Debra analyzed my complicated case at so many levels and from so many angles. She is an excellent strategist. Debra focused on what was most important to the jury and used the prosecutor's aggression and deception against him. Her preparation on our case was more that I could have imagined. I thought about the case day and night, and Debra would frequently communicate with me and introduce ideas and issues that did not even enter my mind. Her emphasis on integrity and character has inspired me to be a better man. While the stakes of this trial were extremely high, I never lost my trust in Debra. Our jury deliberated for three hours before finding me Not Guilty on all charges! Whenever I think about Debra and the case, I get a big smile on my face and my heart is still doing somersaults. Tell the truth to Debra, and she will set you free!

Ms. White not only fought and defended my brother from an unjust accusation leading to pretty much, life in prison, but also inspired me to pursue my dreams and career as an attorney. Her work ethic and grit are ADMIRABLE! Debra is QUICK on her feet and knows her information like the back of her hand! During the hearings and trials for my brother's case, never did I see this woman perplexed or uncertain in her deliverance. Debra radiates confidence and certainty when she is in the courtroom and OVERALL. She goes above and beyond for her clients, and I know this because I saw it and experienced it with my brother. Debra was ALWAYS upfront with us, regardless if it was good or bad, and was extremely patient in explaining everything with detail. I cannot thank Debra enough for everything she did for my brother and for my family in general. She is an inspiration to me, and a BLESSING to my family. She is worth EVERY penny! THANK YOU!!!

LOOK NO FURTHER!! Debra is not only professional, knowledgeable, experienced, but also sweetest and wonderful human being. My father was charged a felony DUI, and I called several attorneys. She responded right away and we were going to see her in person the next day, but I was so desperate and scared so that I hired the first attorney we went to see. It was the biggest mistake that we didn't go see her first. That attorney I hired because of his "good relationship with DA", was condescending, rude, and hardly unable to reach. I ended up relieving his service the next day and asked for Debra's help. She was so mad at what our family had to go through because of that attorney and she fought with us together. Even since having Debra represent my dad, we were much more at ease and she helped us calm down. She was extremely knowledgeable with felony DUI cases; she exonerated my dad's bail, dealt with out of state license, and was able to drop my dad's charge. She worked hard for everything regarding the case, and also helped in so many other things as well. Throughout the whole process, she walked through every detail with us, cared so much about my family, and even our financial situation! As I was a scared and frightened daughter, I called her with questions so many times out of fear. Every time, she was always supportive and explained everything in calm fashion, helping me understand. I sincerely think that she is an angel that God gave us. She is honest, attentive, caring, exceptional, and I could go on and on forever! We love her so much and she is a true blessing in my life. I guarantee, that she will bring THE BEST outcome for you too.

Debra is a true blessing. I have never felt so hopeless before. My fiancé was falsely and wrongly accused of something horrid. Seeing him get arrested was intense and I felt like my hands were tied because I did not know what to do or how to help him clear his name. The stress of the bail, the financial hardship and hiring the right attorney was scary. We had spoken to about 5 defense attorneys prior to Debra S White, and every single one of them only wanted to talk about the fees up front. They did not want to hear our story they just wanted to see if we could come up with the money up front. After countless hours of searching online for a defense attorney I came across “The Law Offices of Debra S White,” and after reading the reviews of all those people that Debra was able to help I knew I wanted to speak to her. Debra listened to us and after talking on the phone just for a few minutes I knew that she was the one that would be able to get us out of this nightmare. We were unable to eat or sleep, we felt helpless. Debra was able to clear my fiancées name and keep his freedom. Unfortunately in life innocent people are at times accused of horrid things, and without the proper help and guidance the situation gets worse. I will always be thankful for what Debra did for us. Hearing Debra say “you are free” brought tears to my eyes because it was a false accusation that finally went away. Debra was able to do what I was unable to do. Seeing my loved one in so much pain because of this nightmare and being unable to clear his name and fix the situation broke my heart. Debra you are amazing! This review is from the perspective of a loved one that was falsely accused. I could never imagine how grateful my fiancée will be with Debra and all the emotions he felt going through this situation first hand. Thank you again Debra. I will never get tired of thanking you all your hard work.

My Wife and I are blessed to have found Debra. Debra is a Super Lawyer. Debra really cares about her clients. She gave our Lives back. Debra is honest, dedicated and direct. She is very attentive and pays attention to details. Debra was very accessible, and responds to emails and phone calls in an extremely timely manner. Debra is simply amazing. To have a felony charge dismissed is simply amazing and we thank you. We would highly recommend Debra anytime. If you hire Debra to defend you in any criminal matter, be rest assured that you have a Super Lawyer on your side. Debra is honest, dedicated and would represent you as if she has walked in your shoes. Awesome, Awesome Attorney. Thanks a million.
