This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Great Experience

Rebecca Hobbs was hired to do our Last Will and Testimant. We were very pleased with her professionalism and expertise. She was able to answer all of our questions and walk us comfortable through each step of the process.

My Children's Futures Are Financially Secured

Attorney Hobbs helped my wife and I set up our Wills and created Trusts for our children in case of a tragedy. She walked us through ALL of our options and assisted us in making the best decisions according to our situation. She always displayed a professional and genuinely kind demeanor. We have ref...erred our parents, neighbors, and friends, and EVERY one of them have been THRILLED with their experiences! Choosing the right attorney for legal matters is one of the most important decisions we ever had to make, and we definitely made the right decision by going with Attorney Hobbs!

"I had the opportunity to work in Lycoming County, Pennsylvania in the same area as Ms. Hobbs (Elder Law). During the period of time that I worked in Elder Law (2011-2012), I was able to see Ms. Hobbs' work first hand. She is very knowledgeable about the subject area and is an asset to the area of Elder Law."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
