Debra supported us with the adoption of our granddaughter. We knew this would be a difficult and lengthy process for various reasons. Debra provided excellent legal guidance to us during the process while effectively leveraging her vast knowledge of the law and Manatee court system to achieve a very favorable and timely result. Our adoption was successful and achieved in half the expected time. We recommend Debra along with her very capable assistant, Susan, without reservation to anyone with a difficult adoption.

Debra handled my legal issue with professionalism. She came highly recommended and did not disappoint

Mrs. Salisbury not only handled my divorce with ease she handled my DCF case and won with flying colors. She gets stuff done, she’s open and honest with you rather you like her answer or not. She was always there to answer my questions. This woman saved mine and my children’s lives and brought us back together. I can’t thank her enough.

Great attorney! Very knowledgeable. I would highly recommend Debra Salisbury!. Great experience!.

I am beyond impressed with Mrs. Salisbury, she was very upfront with me and was very matter of fact, she provided me with nothing but the truth and at no time did I ever feel like she sugarcoated anything just to make me feel like I was making a good decision by retaining her. There is a reason she is very successful and it is not only the support and attention she gave to me but also her ability to have a presence on and off the record, in the court room and it’s proceedings, but also in personal phone calls and establishing my reasons for retaining her in a clear and concise way. For someone like me who was new to having to hire an attorney Mrs. Salisbury made the process incredibly easy, handled everything in a broken down way easy for me to understand, and even broke it all down carefully explaining what she was filing, what statutes she was pulling from and translating it into laymen's terms for me to understand. She has been very supportive of me and she is a complete professional that I am not disappointed in retaining. I encourage anyone who is needing help with a Legal/Family Law matter to schedule a consultation with Mrs. Salisbury, as I believe she is absolutely essential for anyone needing their legal representation fulfilled. I am very pleased with the work Mrs. Salisbury has done for me and Susan her assistant has done.

Great lawyer.

Wonderful attorney. The best I have ever known. She fights for what is right for children and really puts every second of her time into it. Highly recommended.

I am absolutley impressed with Deb! She doesn't put up with any nonsense and will fight with you and for you as long as you are doing the right thing. She has not only been my attorney but also a mentor. If you want the real deal and are ready to take the steps she will ride it out with you the whole journey. The end result was perfect and in the best interest of my beautiful daughter. Thank you Deb and Susan!!

She's very professional the best lawyer In florida a very nice Lady

Brian will barely ever take notes and loves to speak by phone to ask you the same questions again and again so that you can be billed for communicating the same things to him time and again. His office refuses to itemize questionable billing. I've had to file a Florida bar complaint.

The other reviews are right based on skill. There is a huge amount of skill in this office. However. There is also a huge amount of pride. After spending over $55k on her fees, when things didn’t go exactly the way Debra wanted, she got “offended” and decided to pass us off mid court, stating that there was issues with council. Perfect example of the typical Attorney Stereotype. We still won our case even though she left us high and dry. Her words were “I’m too busy to deal with this emotion, I’m taking care of my elderly parents and trying to be an attorney full time, and you are too draining of a person for me to deal with.” Maybe take some time off and reconsider why you got into this business to begin with. To help people. Not help your pride. Looking at other posts and based on conversations in the community. It looks like, if you are a woman. Debra will do fine with you. But based on statistics, she does not work well when representing men in her family cases. She allows her female pride to constantly put men down and their abilities.
