Testimonials:
#1: It took a split second to change my life. The oncoming car that broadsided us fractured my pelvis, and the next few years I spent in rehabilitation followed by neck surgery and back surgery. My future physical abilities are uncertain. I had mixed emotions about a lawsuit. After all, it was an accident.
My husband made me realize that no one cared about the suffering I was going through. He interviewed various attorneys before he found Debra Freidell. He told me, “This is someone I think you can talk to.” She organized the lawsuit in detail. She helped me express the discouragement of not being the same person I was before the accident.
I told her I only want what is fair. Debra is a fair person. She fought for my interest. The settlement has enabled my family to purchase a more accessible home for my limitations. If you have not thought about what is best for you and would like advice, I believe that Debra is the person to call. Junann
#2: My wife and I regard Debra Freidell with high esteem because of the way she has treated us. I have hired several lawyers in my life for different situations, and the only two I respect is the ex—governor of the State of Nebraska and Ms. Freidell. When I was shopping for a lawyer for my worker Tom who was injured in a collision, other lawyers wouldn’t worry about what was best for Tom, just how to get the most money. It’s not only getting the most money, but with Ms. Freidell it was the feelings of compassion and friendship that she has. Which is why, since the collision, my wife and I have returned to her for wills, powers of attorney for my dad, and to ask different legal questions. It’s more than the almighty dollar. It’s going out of your way to do something. It’s hard to find a lawyer who thinks that way. Larry Million
#3: Debra Freidell is good at what she does, a very personable woman with charisma and tenacity. Those are vital attributes for a good attorney. Tom Parkinson
#4: I am waiting for my case to be heard by a judge, four years after the auto accident. Debra Freidell has always kept up with my case, and has never ignored it. It’s so different from my friend who has a lawyer representing him on his case. When my friend calls to talk to his lawyer, his calls aren’t returned. He doesn’t hear from him for 4-5 months. His lawyer isn’t getting anything done for him. I talked to about ten lawyers before Ms. Freidell, but I wasn’t convinced that they weren’t in it just for the money and not to help me. Money certainly is important, but it isn’t everything. For instance, if I had the choice I would much rather be healthy again. I also trust women lawyers more than men to get everything done that must be done in order to move the case forward. Joe Arnold
#5: Before I hired Debra Freidell, I had another attorney who took 3-4 years messing around with my case. Debra is good at what she does professionally. She does what she says she’s going to do. She has a good personality and character. I have liked her from the first time I met her, because she has been up front & real with me. Darryl Zewalk. Sr.
#6: What impressed me was how quick Debra was to get back to people, and the way she handles people. When I called her, she was driving along the road and wanted to pull over. I didn’t expect a person in her position to be that careful to pull over. When people are in crisis, that’s what they need—someone to respond to their need.
I worked as a juvenile probation officer in the court system for ten years, so I am comfortable with court situations. When I came into court with my friend from church (who had been charged with a misdemeanor), I felt bad for a lot of people in the courtroom, who looked scared and alone. On the other hand, I felt like Debra was in court with us, with experience and expertise to guide my friend through it. We felt full of trust, and things seemed to flow. When Debra got the case dismissed, she took a whole weight off from my friend’s shoulders. A. Smith
#7: What Debra Freidell did for me was wonderful. It was important to get the legal proceedings started fast, so the defendant could be served (while she was being transferred from one jail to another) and then have a hearing scheduled quickly, so the judge would sign an order. The whole case was saved because Ms. Freidell dropped everything to work so quickly. Bob McCubbins
#8: Debra Freidell did a pretty darn good job. I would recommend her to anyone. She handled the business of representing us and did the investigation about our case. Unlike the other attorney we had, there was not a lot of phone tag, no back & forth. Ms. Freidell was pretty thorough in doing what she had to do. Donna Carter
Ms. Freidell was prompt. I loved her work. She is very nice, she was always available when we needed her. I don’t know what more you could ask from a lawyer. Darrell Carter
#9: We got a settlement that we wouldn’t have gotten without Debra Freidell. We tried to work directly with the claims adjuster, but we didn’t have a clue about what we were doing. We appreciate all that Ms. Freidell did for us and how she helped us. Esther Gray
