Very professional an attentive

Rebecca worked very hard an long to get me a fair agreement. She was very helpful the entire time. I highly recommend Rebecca as she will fight for what is right. Very easy going but will fight if she is needed to also.

Best in NWI...Seriously

Rebecca Billick is a very competent and organized family law attorney. She maintains a very fair fee structure (seriously). She appropriately tailors her communication skills to the situation, from being diplomatic in a calm divorce settlement, to fighting like a mama bear in a contentious court h...earing. She provides timely responses, cares about my situation (not a given these days), and works hard for a favorable outcome. Attorney Billick provides excellent advice, is very intelligent, and quick on her feet. Like a master chess player, she anticipates possible outcomes, and provides sounds recommendations on how to respond. I’ve recommended Rebecca to others, and will continue to do so.

Exactly what I needed in a dfficult situation

Divorce is usually not an easy process to go through. My particular case was and is a difficult one. Rebecca helped me every step of the way and she continues to help me. During a particularly stressful situation involving my children, I called upon Rebecca to handle a crisis for me and she came t...hrough. She also isn't afraid to tell you when you're in the wrong. She works for you and will do what you ask, but sometimes a wake up call is necessary and she will let you know. She is also very knowledgeable and technologically savvy.

Highly Professional and Effective

I hired Rebecca after hearing about her method of working with families as a whole through the process of divorce and custody issues in order to preserve some level of civility among the individuals. I have a high level of respect for Rebecca's approach to mediation as well as her representation of ...individuals. Her educational background gives her an upper hand in dealing with the conflict and negative emotions that are often present in legal situations. My experience has been that Rebecca works efficiently in order to get a case to completion rather than using tactics that would increase the length of time that it takes to get through a difficult situation. She is not afraid to stand up for what is right in a situation, even if it means that she has to counsel her client to have a different mindset on a situation. Rebecca remains very fair throughout the process. Also, she deals with difficult people professionally yet with a directness that indicates that she is confident in her knowledge of the law as well as what she is arguing for. As someone who has seen how other attorneys work (from the sidelines), I highly recommend Rebecca Billick.

A very caring lawyer

Was able to help at a very needed and critical point in my divorce. I received custody of my kids and defended against many false allegations.

  • 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.
