About the Firm

Smith Debnam is comprised of attorneys of excellent legal talent. Work is performed both expertly and timely. This firm is able to address a wide variety of legal services. If I find myself in need of additional legal services, I will not hesitate to go to Smith Debnam.

Kristin Ruth took the time to listen to ‘our story’ and ideas for an updated custody agreement. She then gave us invaluable, seasoned advice on the best path to take and how to move forward from there. Our cases were challenging to say the least and faced formidable opposition. No matter the question, we were given timely responses which helped give us the confidence and reassurance needed in this extremely stressful time.

Rose Stout is an excellent attorney and an extraordinary human being.  Divorce is tough; mine was particularly contentious and emotionally draining.  Throughout, she maintained her composure and level of professionalism and respect for the law that was inspiring. She has the admiration and esteem of her fellow attorneys even those who are opposing counsel.  All the while, she was emotionally supportive to my girls and me at a very difficult time. I recommend her without reservation to anyone with a family law concern.

Thank you doesn’t seem sufficient to express how appreciative I am of Rose Stout and her time. I will never forget our first meeting when she listened to me and conveyed that I was not simply billable hours. I continue to be moved by her kindness and decency. While I don’t know if I will ever be able to repay either, I hope if one day I can be of service, she will let me know. Thank you, Rose, for helping me reclaim the first day of the rest of my life and many other days to follow.

The way Kristin Ruth prepared us for court and the attention to detail was unparalleled. She effectively and thoroughly prepared us for whatever challenges lied ahead while also reassuring us that whatever happened would be in the best interest of the children. I strongly believe that Kristin’s seasoned experience, unparalleled professionalism, and dedicated hard work are the reasons why our children are now in a better environment, and I would highly recommend Smith Debnam to anyone seeking the same.

I went to Smith Debnam after separating from my wife. Meet John Narron, I told him my story and based on that he told me exactly what my ex was entitled to. Later I was Passed to Max Rodden to represent me. My Ex was represented by a deceptive liar that told her she was entitled to so much more. Only after her dragging things out and lining her pockets Max advised mediation. Then and only then my Ex was told the truth by the Mediator. It was a long day but we were able to wrap things up.
