Debbie Fiss is an excellent lawyer with years of experience. She knows the process inside and out and takes the time to explain things with patience and ease. Although it seems like a strange thing to say, I always looked forward to my meetings with Debbie. It was like having a good friend helpyou through the divorce process.
Debbie was always on top of things and communicated to me often about what was happening. My ex-husband's lawyer often took their time, and I know the process would have taken a lot longer if Debbie had not been there to keep things moving along. She was great at fighting for the best for myself and my two kids. I highly recommend Debbie to anyone who is looking for a lawyer to guide them through the divorce process.

Will any one of us ever be ready for a divorce?
It’s an emotional hurricane. You know it’s coming, you know it’s too late to run, so do you just ride it out? Oh, and there is no “school" to teach you what to do during the "hurrivorce"
Hence, what do you do? I was scared, confused, my world was upside down and I am a man, so why would I ask for help?’
Then I met Debbie Fiss. Within minutes of meeting Debbie, her brilliant intellect turned my chaotic world into tranquility. Debbie listened, removed my doubt, explained my rights and helped me understand the divorce process.
She wasted no time and the same day filed the divorce and even got hold of the Sheriff in a different state to serve the papers.
One year later, and after gracefully circumventing EVERY possible curveball thrown at us, Debbie settled the case, filed the final papers expeditiously and I am already divorced! Thank you for caring about me and giving me this new lease on life, Debbie!

Debbie came highly recommended by a family member during a very stressful time in my life, I am truly blessed to have had her on my side fighting for everything my children and I deserved even at times when I felt it would never end and give up and throw in the towel, she became my pillar of strength and voice of reason. She is the only lawyer you want in your corner, she truly cares for her clients and she shows it in every way, as well as her quick response to any emails even while on vacation. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Debbie for all you have done for us.

I must say I am extremely impressed by Debbie, after 8 months of waiting to get my divorce with another lawyer. I was referred to Debbie and she was able to settle my case in less than a week. She is very thoughtful and a no nonsense person. She gets straight to the point and get the job done. I will forever be greatly I found her. Thank you Debbie for giving me my life back. I appreciate you so much.

Debbie was an absolute pleasure to deal with! This was my first time dealing with a lawyer and I was wary to say the least. However, I was super impressed. Debbie was attentive, kind, very knowledgeable, and direct. Every time I called with a question she was right there to answer and explain it in laymen's terms. No round around!?! I also believe that her years of experience and knowledge in the court system helped a great deal and sped up the divorce process. Overall I'm so glad I hired her and highly recommend her.

If you are searching for a Divorce/Custody attorney than look no more - Debbie is the one for you! First off Debbie has a great team that works with her who is both extremely professional and knowledgeable. With over 20 years of experience, Debbie knows the law and will let you know what is realistic and not. I remember going into her office in complete fear of losing custody of my child. Debbie advised me to remain confident and to trust her and even went on by ensuring me that I will get at-least joint custody and that’s exactly what I ended up receiving. Debbie is very compassionate and has a lovely and lively personality; however when it’s time for business she is intensive and will fight for her clients. During this difficult stage, most clients are an emotional wreck but Debbie knows what she is doing and will focus on what is in the best interest of the child. She is very blunt with you but it’s all in the best interest of her client and remaining focused at the task at hand. Thank you Debbie and Mario for all of your hard work! As stated before, if you’re searching for a great divorce/custody attorney – Deborah G Fiss is the attorney for you!

Debbie is simply amazing! We consulted recently and I am without a doubt convinced she is the attorney I want by my side as things move forward. She was professional and direct while empathetic to the situation. She listened to my concerns and answered all questions more than satisfactorily. We ended the meeting with a clear direction should this case proceed. If you are looking for representation, please don’t hesitate to meet with her.

Debbie is the best you can get. She is knowledgeable, personable and strategically oriented throughout my consultation. I consulted with other attorneys before Debbie and she was the only one who really cared on a much deeper level, and actually wanted to help you get through this painful chapter of your life. She truly listened to my complicated case and all my needs and tailored specific strategies on the case accordingly.
After the initial consultation, Debbie quickly moved forward with our action plan. Everything went accordingly to what she had predicted (the filings of the papers, the serving of the documents, etc), and they were done timely, effectively and efficiently. More importantly, since she owns the service company, there is almost no worries in terms of how and if the papers can be properly served. Debbie is always responsive during the whole process, and believe me, if you are calling because you are worried about something, she has already covered it.
Debbie was also absolutely fantastic in court. The stark contrast between Debbie and the opposing counsel really proves that she is the best in the business.She followed up before the court appearance, literally held your hands during the court, and her connections in Queens goes a long way as well. And on top of that, she doesn't over charge and the fees to acquire her services are more than reasonable and definitely worth every penny.
Looking back, going to that consultation with Debbie was probably the best decision I have ever made. I am really glad I have her on my side. I honestly can not imagine how things would turn out without her.

Through her compassion, knowledge and persistence Deborah Fiss saved my sanity and brought closure to the most difficult time in my life. She picked up the pieces from my first attorney's mess and got more done in 2 months than the first attorney in 18. Ms. Fiss built relationships in the Queens court system which is very important when hiring an attorney. She is an outstanding communicator whether email or phone - during nights and weekend alike. She offers "tough love" when necessary but is only steering you in the right direction, she won't tell you just what you want to hear but will be completely honest. I wish I would have hired Debbie from conception. I highly, highly recommend!

Searching for a divorce lawyer is something you don't always plan for, but goodness gracious was I happy to have found Debbie Fiss.
She had all the attributes I was looking for in a divorce lawyer and then some!! Not only is Debbie very knowledgeable, experienced, fierce litigator and negotiator but she is also an amazing human being.
She is a calming voice of rational thought while other lawyers are quick to exploit your emotions (And cash in $$$), Debbie is not afraid to keep you focus on whats most important. (In my case my children)
I appreciate how Debbie positioned my case by paying attention to details, providing counseling and advise while not dragging out the case.
Debbie genuinely cared about me and my children and helped us navigate around some very special circumstances.
What was the end result of working with such a caring, attentive and lovely woman like Debbie?
Well aside from the security of having someone on your side to safe guard your future and interest you also are guaranteed to make a lifelong friend.
Thank you Debbie for helping us all grow!! (Yes even my ex as well!!)
Best advise I can give someone that hires Debbie as their lawyer is once the relationship feels right (and it will!!) place all your trust in her because she truly knows what she is doing.
P.S. I can't forget the entire office staff which were always ready to help, quickly respond to all my emails and calls!! Love you all!!
