About Debra Spatz

Debra was raised in the Chicago area, graduated from the University of Illinois with a degree in Finance and went on to receive her law degree at Chicago-Kent College of Law, focusing on corporate/securities and international law. After several years of practicing transactional law and civil litigation in Chicago, she moved to Ohio to start a family with her husband.
With five kids in tow and a husband who traveled for work, Debra took a break from the full-time practice of law and supplemented life as a mom with short term contract legal positions. Now that they are all in school, Debra is excited to open her own practice and help the people in her community protect their own loved ones.
When Debra is not caring for her five children and all their animals (dogs, cats, bunnies…) or dedicating her time to helping families with their legal needs, she enjoys serving coffee as a local barista, spending time with friends and creating art and jewelry through woodworking. Debra lives in Akron, Ohio.

THE PERSONAL FAMILY LAWYER PROMISE

What makes PFL lawyers different?

How you hire us.

We begin with a comprehensive inventory of everything you own, and everyone you love, and consider it all in a working meeting, called a Family Wealth Planning Session, to guide you to clarify your financial life and legacy goals before we draft a single document.
How we plan.

We work with you throughout every life stage to map out the most likely scenarios for you and the people you love, planning for each as your life, the law, and your assets change over time.
What we protect.

Our Life & Legacy Planning process ensures everything that matters most -- from your financial assets to your values, insights, stories and experience -- are captured and documented during your life and cared for over the generations to come.
What you see.

Transparency in our process, and our fees … all of which are flat fees, agreed to in advance, based on your choices and with no surprises, ensuring we stay on the same side of the table - supporting you to make a lifetime of great decisions - every step of the way.
How we deliver.

Our systems help you get clear and organized, overcoming the exact issues that keep most estate plans from actually working when they are needed most. We help you leave your family with a gift of love, and not a mess.
How our plans work.

One-and-done estate plans focused only on money are a recipe for a big mess. We help you throughout every stage of life and be there for the people you love, when you can’t be.
