Frederick Klein

Rebecca could not be more helpful during our Chapter 7 bankruptcy. She was very knowledgeable and helpful during the entire process. She walked us through the process every step of the way. My wife and I were very pleased with her help and would recommend her services to anyone seeking a very pr...ofessional advocate.

Excellent!

Rebecca was there for me every step of the way during this time. She was prompt to answer questions day or night and she was very honest. She was polite and genuinely cared.

Rebecca was very helpful, going above & beyond her duties. Due to personal reasons I had to convert from a 13 to a 7. She helped me make the right decisions in my case, even contacting my exes lawyer when it really had nothing to do with the bankruptcy.

Client First Attorney

Rebecca and her staff were wonderful to work with and they guided me seamlessly through what can often be very emotional and difficult. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing the expert services of a bankruptcy attorney - Rebecca always puts the client first and will make sure you're comfort...able the entire way through.

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.
