Ebel Family Law


Welcome to one of the newest litigation boutiques in Atlanta, Georgia, practicing under the name "Deborah S Ebel, LLC". This is Debby's dream job rounding out the last and best third of her career practicing family law. Family law melds her expertise as a litigator with the compassion that came with her social work degree and real work experience. Family law is the practice area that allows Debby to use her business litigation background and the financial acumen garnered from representing Fortune 100 and 500 companies in complex business disputes in her years as a partner at McKenna, Long & Aldridge, LLP, spanning almost three decades.

Debby is now in a compact, efficient physical environment, surrounded by really top flight professionals. This is a law practice where kindness, mutual respect between lawyer and client, and a goal of creating a superior work product (whether it be a hearing, a trial, a brief or a successful appeal) prevails. This is a law practice which results in getting the client, at bare minimum, what the client wants, and on those more precious moments, more than what they wanted. We are accessible to our clients every day of the work week and often on weekends and holidays, instead of hiding behind a layer of secretaries and assistants. We believe in frequent communication with the client. We are not a volume practice with the goal of getting clients in and out the door in a continuous stream. We devote attention to detail. We represent men and women, plaintiffs and defendants. After achieving the best result reasonably possible, balanced against the cost of getting there, our next biggest indicator of success is a referral from our client's opponent - the highest form of flattery and accomplishment.

Debby also volunteers for the Atlanta Legal Aid Society (ALAS), when available, providing legal advice in the area of family law to persons unable to afford a lawyer and whose cases are conflicted out of being represented by ALAS, at both the Fulton County and Dekalb County Family Law Information Centers located at the Superior Court of Fulton and Dekalb Counties.
