Extremely Satisfied – Highly Recommend

There was no doubt that we needed a competent and strong attorney. Our case would be complex, and our odds of winning might be slim, but we also knew we had to try. Upon consulting with Rebekah, it became clear very quickly that she would meet our needs. After hearing our situation, she was confiden...t in her ability to drill into the heart of the case. From the beginning, Rebekah felt strongly that we would prevail. Rebekah walked us through the process of filing a lawsuit against a local contractor. Throughout the case, which lasted over a year, Rebekah was masterful at keeping everything organized and met all the required deadlines of the court. She navigated the case with care, and her expertise in contract law was always evident. Rebekah’s experience in the courtroom is stellar. She has the utmost respect for the court and its proceedings. As a bystander, it was amazing to watch Rebekah skillfully battle the opponent while pleading our case to the court. In the end, we had piles of documentation, superb expert testimony, and an attorney who did not cave under pressure from the defense, or from the court, when challenged. Rebekah was tough, yet respectful at all times. Rebekah’s diligence paid off, and we won the exhaustive battle! We will continue to use Rebekah at Lusk Law. Her staff members are also amazing and extremely supportive. We highly recommend Rebekah and the Lusk Law Firm.

Great lawyer for landlord-tenant issue

My experience with Rebekah was amazing, she was very patient, helpful and professional. My landlord filed a claim against me as I broke the lease, however, I did it due to a break-in incident caused by the fact that landlord didn't change the lock of the apartment. Rebekah collected all the necessa...ry information from me, listened to my expectation and finished the case within 3 weeks. Thus, I highly recommend her for similar cases.

Real Estate and Reconstruction Experience

I researched Rebekah's background on the internet and her background in home construction appealed to me. I chose to buy a new home without a realtor's assistance. Instead I wanted a lawyer helping me out. I will definitely recommend anyone considering real estate dealing without realtor's assista...nce to have a solid lawyer's backing. Rebekah was very knowledgeable in various considerations around entering into a contract with a new home builder. She explained the various Maryland laws that protect consumers entering into contract with new home builders. She explained the kind of stresses we might face while waiting for the new home to be done. She walked us through the contract and talked to the builder to change the contract with regard to certain options we wanted custom made. In fact, the builder's agent appreciated us hiring a smart attorney like Rebekah and explained how the process of entering into the contract became easier with us letting the attorney handle it. New builders have limited patience to deal with folks who do not hire a real estate agent. That's just the start. While the home construction was underway we became aware of community HOA related pending community amenities repair issues that were not brought up to our consideration. Bringing in the attorney definitely helped us to have our interests protected both from HOA's side and also home builder's side. The HOA soon stepped up repairs needed in the community. Rebekah checked with us the week before closing, to go over the HUD1 and HUD2 paperwork. She confirmed everything was in order and according to Maryland law. Just when we thought it was all good, the brand new home got hit by lightning and caught fire and suffered vast amount of damage. We had to enter a brand new process of dealing with home reconstruction. Luckily our insurance was exceptionally cooperative knowing our circumstance of having just had the house warming done four weeks ago. However, we were faced with the prospect of home reconstruction having just gone through brand new home construction. Since our experience with the new home purchase was so exceptionally good, we rehired Rebekah for legal advice in the process of hiring a general contractor to put our brand new home back together. Again, Rebekah provided us with public websites to research general contractors with respect to legal actions against them and legal actions against clients. She helped screen contract terms from three different general contractors. Rebekah also made several legal recommendations with regard to our plan for modifications in the home with regard to safety. She helped us write addenda to the general contractors write up, thus protecting our interests. The process of reconstruction was not straight forward. Because of various reasons the project got delayed by several weeks. Rebekah brokered a path forward when the general contractor stopped answering our requests for updates. She communicated with the general contractor by email and phone to make sure our interests were properly cared for. Rebekah took an approach of moderating peaceful conversation between us rather than an aggressive approach, which the general contractor liked. The general contractor became responsive thereafter. Overall, the general contractor placed us back high on his priority and worked with us exceptionally well. Having an attorney well versed in Maryland real estate law and general contractor legal considerations was a good decision on our part. When you need that mediator to break the ice with general contractor/new home builder nothing beats a good attorney like Rebekah Damen Lusk. At one point it even felt therapeutic to just speak with her and her reassuring us that everything will be alright and know that she is getting our questions answered. We wish her well and all the success and we highly recommend her services to anyone.

We won thanks to Rebekah Lusk!

Rebekah Lusk did a fantastic job on my landlord tenant case. She was always on top of everything, she kept me informed every step of they way and explained everything in detail. Rebekah told me exactly what i had to bring to court and helped me prepare for the trial. We met up an hour before the tri...al to discuss the case, I was nervous she calmed me down easily. In the court room she was professional, and knew the case laws that were pertaining to my case. She covered every aspect of my case and asked very appropriate questions. She had follow up questions to counter the defendants lies. She was prepared for everything. The defendants asked for a continuance and Rebekah knew exactly what to say so the judge did not grant the continuance. Rebekah was questioning one of the defendants and he was not telling the truth she knew the right questions to ask and kind of cornered him into telling the truth. He answered Rebekahs question with the truth and then tried to cover it up with a lie. We won our case which i credit to Rebekah we could not have done this without her. The court room and the judge was very intimidating as was seeing the defendants having Rebekah by our side during that time was great. It was comforting to have someone to fight this battle for us. Did i say we WON? I cant say that enough! I believe that if we didnt have Rebekah on our side we would not have won the amount we did or possibly even won at all. She made her case about facts and supported them with case law. Rebekah proved the defendants lied in court and proved my case. I was very impressed with how she handled my case in the court room, she fought for me. Given the chance to do all of this over i would hire Rebekah again. Even after my case was over she is still working on my case trying to collect my judgement for me. It has been nice to let Rebekah handle everything when it comes to dealing with my landlords. If i have any need for a lawyer in the future I will call Rebekah Lusk. Thank you for everything you have done for me and my family!
