"Freeburn Law attorneys are exceptional! I’ve been a client for about a year. Ms. Deborah Packer is such a great attorney. She walked me through my horrible experience, and she made it so much easier to handle because she took her time and went above and beyond. If it weren’t for her and Ashley I would’ve given up and depression would have won. On top of all of that she dominated every hearing and won me my case. I truly trust this law firm…. they’re great and what they do!"

"Highly recommended!!! Everyone was super friendly! Deb Packer was my attorney and she’s great! Always got back to me right away, she explained everything where I could understand what she was talking about every step of the way."

"Debbie was fantastic throughout my entire experience! She was always prompt with responses, gave great detail and explanations, and was very compassionate during a rough time. I highly recommend her!!"

"Extremely happy with Atty. Debbie Packer starting with our first phone call/consultation. Debbie led me through the Workmen’s Compensation process and was very happy with the results. Communication with her and the office staff was easy and efficient. Wouldn’t hesitate calling Atty. Packer if I needed any services in the future. Thank you so much Debbie !"
