Protecting your freedom, your reputation, and your future
When everything is on the line, Debra S. White delivers discreet, strategic, and relentless defense against sex-crime allegations—built on meticulous preparation and trial-ready advocacy.
A sex-offense accusation carries a unique stigma—and the damage often starts immediately. Even before charges are filed, an allegation can threaten your freedom, reputation, career, and family relationships.
Debra S. White Criminal Defense Specialists is led by Debra S. White, a California State Bar Certified Specialist in Criminal Law. Ms. White has extensive experience defending clients in sex-crime cases in both state and federal court. She handles each case personally, from start to finish, with discretion, focus, and trial-ready preparation.
Her approach is meticulous and trial-oriented: scrutinizing forensic findings, exposing investigative shortcuts, challenging credibility and memory issues, and—when appropriate—working with experts in forensic psychology, false-accusation dynamics, memory reliability, and digital evidence. The objective is straightforward: identify weaknesses early, confront unreliable testimony and forensic claims, and fight for the client’s liberty, reputation, and future.
If you’re under investigation or facing charges, timing matters—get counsel involved early.
