Superb Attorney

A friend referred me to Rebecca, and I am glad she did. Rebecca guided me through the most devastating paths of my life. I trust her guidance and honesty through each step of my very tricky and complicated divorce. She really knows her field and kept me informed as to all the avenues I could take,... helping me understand the possible outcomes and scenarios of each possible situation, keeping my rights top priority. Rebecca also referred me to others for assistance, not in her field, as well. I truly am thankful for her help. If needed, I would recommend her to a friend as well. Rebecca has a nice balance of caring for her clients along with getting the job done.

So glad I found her!

I was so happy that a friend recommended Rebecca! Prior to meeting her, I was with another attorney that I was very unhappy with. From our first meeting, I knew I was in great hands! She identified several mistakes that my attorney had made that would have cost me thousands of dollars!! Rebecca i...s an expert in her field, professional, and so easy to talk to. She was always so responsive to my questions and concerns and got back to me right away. Her communication is superb and I always felt like I knew what was going on with my case. Going thru divorce and child custody was one of the most stressful times of my life that was made so much better by having her as my attorney! Can't say enough good things about her! I would highly recommend!!

Best in the burgh!!

Rebecca has been my lawyer for over 5 years. She has helped me through the toughest times in my life. From my separation, divorce, and custody issues Rebecca handled each of them with diligence and compassion! She is everything I could hope for in a lawyer and now consider her my friend. Look no ...further she is the best in Pittsburgh!

Solid, precise and very no-nonsense

Rebecca handled my very stressful custody case and is currently handling my divorce. Its a terrible ordeal to go through. I have peace going through this process because of her. She is so on-point. She knows exactly what she's doing and she does it precisely and confidently while being so personable.... I feel reassured when I'm in her presence because of her knowledge - she knows the law, and I can assure you she will never be surprised or blindsided in the courtroom. She covers all the bases and is ready and very prepared. She has such a good nature and that sets her high above other attorneys, because you want someone who is confident and knows the law, and at the same time, her wonderful personality makes her approachable and so likeable. She's very strong. When you meet with her, you will immediately sense her strength. As you talk with her, she will put you at ease with her humor - and those qualities together really sets her apart from other attorneys. I am very grateful for her.

Caring and hardworking family attorney

I have been working with Ms. Myers for years. Her kindness, compassion, and expertise have been so important to me during the worst and most stressful years of my life. She always listened to my concerns and fought to get the best results for my child and for me. She was amazing through the stress...ful and overwhelming child support and custody conciliation processes.
