Debra and her team did everything I needed and exceeded my expectations. Debra genuinely looked out for my best interest. I learned through the process, that sometimes patience is necessary to get the best outcome. She is direct, to the point, and focused on getting positive results. I really appreciate the dedication that she and her team gave to my case.

I had an excellent experience with Debra during my divorce proceedings. She was able to obtain an outcome that more than exceeded my expectations. Being my second divorce, I’ve come to dread the proceedings and told her as much. Debra looked at me and confidently said “Don’t worry about anything because I will handle it.” She then proceeded to negotiate a more than favorable settlement. I highly recommend Debra!
I am beyond grateful for Larry and Debra Chafin and everything they did for me and my family. My case involved a guardianship that had been put in place in 2021, when my son’s aunt was granted temporary guardianship due to my struggles with substance use. After becoming 3½ years clean, I was ready to take the necessary steps to turn my life around fully, terminate the guardianship, and regain custody of my son. This was one of the most emotional and difficult experiences of my life, but Larry and Debra treated me with compassion, dignity, and respect from the very beginning. They listened to my story, believed in my progress, and guided me through every step of the legal process with honesty and patience. They made sure I understood what was happening and never made me feel judged for my past. Because of their dedication and advocacy, the guardianship was terminated, and I was able to move forward with a fair 50/50 custody arrangement with my son’s father, Who had also beat the grips of addiction!! Having attorneys who truly cared—not just about the case, but about my child and my future as a parent—made all the difference. I will always be thankful for their professionalism, kindness, and support during such a life-changing time. I highly recommend Larry and Debra Chafin to anyone who needs strong, compassionate representation in a family law matter.
Starting the divorce process was overwhelming, and I wasn’t sure what to expect. Debra and her team made everything easier from the very beginning. I trusted her completely with my divorce and child custody case, and she exceeded my expectations with the outcome. Knowing I was in such capable hands gave me peace of mind during a very difficult time.
I hired her in 2024 after my ex husband was given 60/40 by family court. This was a case of previous emotional/mental abuse on the daily and instability and inconsistency for my child. Along with alcohol and severe mental health allegations against the father who was previously on supervised visitations. After hiring Debra and appointed a Guardian At Litem. Debra worked well with the GAL, she was VERY thorough in guiding me on what evidence to gather. I submitted all my paperwork’s and evidence and she was able to secure the best possible outcome for my children! We were also granted to move out of state to pursue medical resources, better stability, job security, and overall better quality of life for my children. Her pricing is very reasonable, I wasn’t Nickle and dimed! I was able to afford her entire services making less than 25k a year ! I would recommend her and her team to anyone! In our parenting plan I was even able to request “safe guards” to protect my children and I have sole decision making. If you’re looking for a pit bull in the court room …. This is the lawyer for you! She’s good and compassionate and see right through an unstable parent! Good luck on your endeavors.
