About


Through serving as a trusted counselor to many companies and entrepreneurs over the years, the "entrepreneurial spirit" of these dynamic parties inspired Frank to start his own vibrant law firm. Hence, The Debick Law Firm, LLC was created in 2011 to better serve the needs of Frank's clients. Frank was born and raised in Phoenix, Arizona and moved to Colorado to attend law school. Although he initially intended to move back to Arizona after law school, the allure of the Rocky Mountains was too great and Frank opted to remain in Colorado. Throughout Frank's legal career he has worked for some of Colorado's leading law firms and by virtue of this experience, he obtained the legal skills to advise businesses, both large and small. When not practicing law, Mr. Debick enjoys spending time with his wife and adorable daughter and son, golf, skiing, traveling and renovating his house. Frank is a former member of the board of directors of The Denver Inner City Parish, and, is also an avid supporter and former member of the Denver Active 20/30 Children's Foundation. In 2008 Frank was named an "Up-and-Coming Lawyer" by Law Week Colorado and in 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, and, 2013, Frank was selected for inclusion as a Colorado Super Lawyer "Rising Star", which represents the top 2.5% of attorneys under age 40 or practicing less than 10 years.
