Office and Staff

The Smith Law Group was established in 1986 by Debra A. Smith, a new attorney with a desire to speak for people who could not deal with the system or speak for themselves. Always running her own office, Debra has represented a vast array of individuals, many on the outer dredges of society, who had only the slimmest of hopes for a better future. This type of adversity and difficult legal cases led Debra to have a unique office, one that focused on fighting for individual’s rights with compassion and true understanding of her clients.

Today, the Smith Law Group is a long established law firm in the City of Riverside, handling Family Law, Domestic Violence and Criminal Law cases. The firm strives for technological excellence and has comprehensive and modern database programs which provide up-to-date, accurate information, vital for efficient administration of cases. Our technology allows us to have the latest legal research and rulings at our finger tips, which keep us competitive and cutting-edge in the representation of our clients.

The attorneys and staff members of the Smith Law Group are a unique group, forming a dynamic team that can deliver quality legal representation in an effective and powerful way. Our commitment to help people get through the legal and emotional minefield of divorce, custody and property division is unsurpassed. We have over thirty-five years of experience; we work smarter; we strive to make the complex simple. We are re-defining how legal services are delivered.

Our practice has a staff of paralegals and secretaries that are highly trained in the field of Family Law. Each paralegal has a minimum of twelve or more years of experience in this paperwork intensive field, and each is versed in the latest legal research techniques to ensure that all work-product is up to date and on the cutting edge of the law.

The paralegals and office staff are all specially trained on the custom designed database programs that are utilized throughout the office to efficiently and quickly handle all matters of case administration, tracking and billing. We use the most up-to-date recording and photographic tools for identity verification, client safety and security, and for internal training purposes to enhance client care.

Each paralegal is charged with the duty of overseeing all case work under the supervision of an attorney, and is further charged with the responsibility of knowing and understanding each individual client and their specific needs or desires. Paralegals handle the day to day administration of the cases, meet and converse with the clients, and routinely meet with the attorney to discuss strategy, case preparation, discovery and possible resolutions or settlements of matters.

Every staff member in this office is dedicated to providing the best possible service to each and every one of our valued clients, at all times.

Attorneys Debra Smith and William Smith
EXTREMELY AGRESSIVE!

“Ms. Smith helped me with my custody case. I was very nervous and had no idea what to do or expect until I met with her. She explained the entire process to me and put me at ease. When my court day came up, she had everything in order and was extremely aggressive, professional and just what I needed.”

- Skylar

Had Enough Book Series
A three volume set that exposes the often hidden world of emotional and physical abuse as it exists in our society today; from its inception in a relationship, to its eventual depression or even destruction of the victim. Written by attorney Debra A. Smith, the books are full of first person narratives that describe actual abusive situations with chilling clarity, demonstrating the entire spectrum of abuse from verbal, to emotional, to physical. The series provides effective methods to assess an abusive situation and formulate a plan to escape it. The books are riveting reading, connecting with the abuse victim on a decidedly personal and realistic level.
