Leave a review about your experience with this lawyer.Although Debra Opri typically works on behalf of celebrity clients and legal proceedings that are often tried in the media, I have found from personal experience, that she is an attorney who genuinely cares about individual people and their cases. Her interest in obtaining justice in a legal matter is true and legitimate. She is known for fighting on behalf of those who cannot fight for themselves and those who have been unjustly treated and this reputation is truly deserved, for that is exactly what she does, utilizing respect for all parties as she does it. Debra Opri has a heart to match her legal expertise and she will fight for what is right. In my personal case, I was a mother stuck in a maze of unjust legal wranglings in the family court system and Debra came in and rescued my case and what is most important in my life, my child. When you walk into a courtroom with Debra Opri, you are in great care with one of the top legal minds in our country. Debra Opri commands respect within a courtroom and you will feel secure and assured walking in with her to any proceeding and having her argue your case in front of any judge and in opposition to any attorney. Going forward, I will trust Debra Opri, and only Debra Opri, to handle any and all crucial legal matters in my life. I am forever grateful to Debra Opri and I recommend her entirely to those who need an attorney to advocate on their behalf in a legal matter, which can sometimes be fraught with difficulties and mis-dealings. Debra Opri is an advocate, a protector and a First Rate Attorney with Integrity how refreshing! Thank you Debra for all you have done for my child and myself!
What an absolute disaster of a hire. She sounded good on the phone but after I sent her the retainer, it was a nightmare of a professional relationship. She charged me $14,000 for one months worth of horrible work product. An absolute disaster, I am mortified and stunned. I fired her because I would send over my response to the declaration that I'm dealing with, and I would say one thing in response, but what she drafted for me was full of outright lies. Lies that I could never defend, and I had to entirely rewrite what she would write. I am in a state of shock. She spoke with me for a total of about a half hour on the phone over the one month despite a dozen requests to speak with her. It was an absolutely horrible experience. This is the most unethical insane thing I've ever experienced.
