Debra J. Braselton is an experienced family law attorney with a unique background and a career built around families. In her first career, Debra was a certified nurse midwife at a large teaching hospital in Chicago. Today, the wealth of knowledge and experience she gained from working with people in crisis have made family law a natural fit for Debra as an attorney. Focusing exclusively on family law and practicing primarily in Dupage, Kane and Cook counties, Debra handles divorce, custody, visitation, child support, guardianship, adoption and a variety of other family law matters and represents her clients in all related proceedings, including trials, pretrial conferences, evidentiary hearings and contested motions.

Debra is a strong advocate of alternative dispute resolution and was among the first attorneys in Illinois to receive training in collaborative law, which at present comprises about half of her divorce practice. She is also an active member of several legal and not-for-profit organizations, and is regularly appointed by judges to serve as a guardian ad litem, mediator and parent coordinator.
