Debbie L. Zimmerle

I was born and raised in Chapel Hill, Tennessee where I attended Forrest High School. I was blessed to be raised by parents who stayed together. These days, our family is the minority.

Everyone has heard the statistic that nearly 50% of marriages end in divorce. That statistic is actually more overwhelming in the South.

Though divorce should be the last resort to a marriage in trouble, there are often circumstances where it is simply unavoidable. In those instances, I will work tirelessly to make the transition for my client as smooth as possible. I keep that same goal for all of my family law cases.

No person chooses to be faced with a decision that lands them in court. Be it a divorce, child custody issue, or otherwise, rarely are people pleased to be facing the legal system. It can be an intimidating and overwhelming experience. I strive to bring a calm mind to a hectic and emotional time in your life by helping you maneuver through your case. I will be your gladiator in the courtroom to fight for the best interests of you and your children. It is everyone's desire that their issues be handled with as little conflict as possible. However, when the need arises, be it due to an emergency or an unreasonable adversary, I fight tirelessly and aggressively for my clients.
