Courteous, Knowlegable and Effective

I hired Rebecca for my Divorce. She heard and understood my Challenges for the Divorce and took effective measures to deescalate and resolve it amicably but the other party wont listen. Rebecca was professional, compassionate, and knowledgeable. I recommend her.

Posted by Brook | July 14, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Highly recommend!!

Rebecca helped me through a difficult divorce and many difficult child custody factors. She was not just a lawyer but also a huge support and I would not have made it through the last year without her! She dealt with difficult opposing counsel with grace and humor. The documents drawn up for separati...on, custody, and divorce were perfectly worded and covered all the legal bases that I didn't even know I needed to think of. She was quick to respond to any help or advice I needed and was with me every step of the way. I simply cannot recommend Rebecca enough!

The Best Family Lawyer with Empathy and Gets the Job Done!

Baer is a well versed and educated lawyer. She understands the legal systems and advocates for children's best interests. I was looking for a lawyer who was empathic, articulate, a great listener, and effective with time. Baer had all of these attributes and more. She was able to advocate and mediate... for my family needs and navigate a peaceful mediation with the other party. Five years later, all parties are thriving and well. I attribute this to her work and my choice in choosing her. She has all the "right stuff"!

Relationship: Supervised lawyer

"Rebecca is a senior associate in our firm. I have had the pleasure of working with her for almost three years. She is exceptionally well prepared as she does her homework necessary to understand both her clients' needs and the applicable law. She is impressive in her courtroom demeanor as she relates well with judges and magistrates. Her ability to help her clients tell their stories is top notch. When she much cross examine the opposing party or a witness, she quickly and decisively is able to bring out the weakness in the other side's case. Her strong focus on problem solving for her clients, helps them to avoid the stress and uncertainty of court when this is possible. I do not hesitate to refer our clients to Rebecca in any divorce or family law matters."

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.
