Debbie Fiss is the Divorce Attorney Whisperer

(5 star rating on Avvo.com)

I retained Debbie to represent me in my divorce, and immediately she protected my legal rights, and I feel she will continue to look after the best interest of my child and I. Since my first meeting with Debbie I was convinced that she was going to be my attorney. Debbie is a personable, compassionate and positive person. She genuinely cares about her clients. She will not promise you the world but she will be realistic and her clients’ interests are always paramount.Her dedication to her clients is unwavering. You definitely want her to represent you and be on your side, and not as the opposing Read more…

If you want the best, don’t look any further.

I’d used Deborah Fiss when I was going through my divorce a few years ago. She and the overall experience was so great, that I didn’t (nor would I) even think of going to anyone else when I needed advice regarding another family matter later on. She is a master at what she does and her prices will not put you in the poor house. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking legal assistance during a divorce and/or family matter. With Miss Fiss on your side, you can believe that you and your best interests will be a priority. She and her wonderful staff are very personable and are a dream to work with.

Wonderful attorney with the warmest heart

Miss Deborah G Fiss, Esq. was referred to me by another very experienced attorney who is no longer attending the Queens county family court. I feel I am so fortunate from the bottom of my heart to have Debbie representing me in the family court for my son’s custody. Debbie is very experienced attorney in the court system and she always answer and reply my question and concern immediately, I was surprised that one time she replied to me right away around 3am after I wrote her a email. She taught me a lot what Read more…

Look no Further This is the Lawyer you should have.

I went into Miss Fiss’ office just about crawling. My whole life had fallen apart. She was so confident and strong and encouraging. She guided me through every step of the process and even gave me emotional guidance. I had been to another attorney who was never available and could not have cared less about me. Miss Fiss turned out not to be just a great lawyer but she actually cared about my case and more importantly about my children being well taken care of. I never doubted her for a minute. I saw how respected she was in the court house and that also gave me a sense of security. I am glad this whole divorce is behind me, but I never could have gotten through it without her law knowledge, her caring and the strength she kept giving me to get through this difficult time in my life.

Restored my faith in the system!

Debbie worked with me post-judgement to rectify a difficult and one-sided child support and custody situation. She was extremely accurate in her judgement and knowledge of the situation and of her specialty, divorce law. She was proficient and very fair allocating my time and money, always professional in court, and a tough negotiator. What separates her from the rest is that she truly and personally cares for her clients and their families and strives to get the best outcome for everyone involved. She was always supportive and available, going the extra mile during a very difficult time and helping her clients move on with their lives as intact as possible.

I am/was Debbie Fiss client. I am also an attorney. As an attorney I held Debbie, and her staff, to a very high standard. I did alot of research including speaking to quite a few people and consulting with several other attorneys before even choosing her to represent me. All I can say is “WOW”. I was so impressed. She did an excellent job in every aspect of the case. She is highly intelligent, caring, compassionette, and tenacious. She walked me through the hardest stretches of my life and would routinely call me even when she was on vacation. She managed the most difficult issues imaginable such as forensics, maintenace, child support, and custody with ease. At the conclusion of my case I even had custody of my adolescent daughter. She is not just a great lawyer she is a great person!! I highly, highly, highly recommend her! I got all of this for a fair and reasonable fee.

I retained Ms. Fiss for my divorce on the recommendation of a friend who utilized her services to handle her divorce. I was able to get through the very emotional process with Debbie who has nurturing instincts and the client’s and children’s best interests at heart. She is patient, kind and caring and her fees are extremely reasonable. In fact, Debbie was able to negotiate with my ex-husband’s attorney so well, we were able to avoid any court appearances. What could have been an intolerable situation was handled with grace, empathy and a professional mannerism not found in many people. She is ably assisted by an administrative support team who maintains the caring and calming environment while providing stellar service. Debbie is strong, articulate, professional and caring. No time is ever wasted which is how Debbie was able to get things done with quiet efficiency. I highly recommend Debbie Fiss for anyone requiring expert legal counsel. Leslie B

Deborah G. Fiss has the experience to optimally guide you through the family court system. As a father of a beautiful 4 1/2 year old girl and being in court proceedings since my daughter was 3 days old (spent first 4 years with a different attorney), I can proudly say that having Debbie as my Attorney was a God sent. Debbie is strategic, well prepared, and very humanly sensitive. She’ll help you understand the legal process and help you with the emotions involved particurlarly when the system seems to single you out and unfair decisions are made. Debbie is well respected in the court system and her way of coming across judges and other attorneys is just magical. Thank You Debbie! B.I. from NJ

Thanks to Deborah, I have my kid with me. I interviewed close to 10 attorneys before getting to her. She is smart and has a positive attitude, always open to conciliate. Even before the case started, she did the right steps to be ahead in the process. Deborah is very knowledgeable with the court procedures and explains to you what is coming next. She also explains to you how the time of her services has been spent. Of course, as any other person passing through a divorce, I was afraid of my lawyer extending the case to overcharge, but she got a fast resolution of the case by her conciliatory philosophy. In order to be fair with this review, I will suggest to her to be more open to silly questions coming from his clients, remember that we have no clue, a lot of anxiety and, I would say, tremors. I strongly recommend Deborah as attorney. Best regards from Nicholas, my kid.

Didn’t know this was here but now that I found it I would like to thank Deborah Fiss and her staff for all they did during my divorce. She is very good at what she does and well respected in the court system. She not only did what she promised to do but also took great interest and time with me and my two sons helping us with all the emotions that go with a divorce. She is well worth her fee and DOES NOT over charge, but rather tries to get things taken care of quickly. Without her knowledge, spunk, caring and trustworthiness, my divorce would have been a nightmare. Instead it was a nightmare for the other side. Everything she did was always in my best interest and when things seemed to be falling apart she was always a calming force to show me how everything was really working for the good even if I didn’t see it at that moment. Thank you so much for being so good at what you do. From beginning to end you worked your tail off and EARNED your fee! Thank you – Eileen

Let me start by saying that Debbie is amazing though it was tough working with her initially. I’m a high strung individual and it takes quite a bit of work and words to calm me. I also live out of state and am not very familiar with the law or court system and that made me even more nervous. Read more…

Thank you Deb for guiding me throughout the most tumultuous time of my life. I wont go into a long drawn out story of how i found her but here are the facts. I retained Deb to defend against a bogus order of protection, negotiate a custody agreement, and setup a divorce settlement. I was a client of hers from April 2014 till December 2015 and with her guidance and expertise, i am happy to say i am finally divorced.  Read more…

Nothing Short of Magnificent!
The knowledge and 30 plus years of experience in her practice of law was clear when I met Ms. Deborah Fiss for a consultation. I also felt an appreciation to someone that understood the legal dilemma that I was experiencing and like a flash, she had a strategy to implement. I was ecstatic when Ms. Fiss informed me that she would be able to take my case.  Read more…
