Rebecca L. Zeilenga

I highly recommend Becky if you are going through a separation/divorce. She responded to all my questions, emails, phone calls immediately and would always follow-up and get my questions answered. As my case got a little stressful, she remained calm and did all the "homework" she had to do to make ...sure I was taken care of. She reads through all the documents that are given and is always prepared- many lawyers DO NOT do that and are not prepared. She makes a very stressful situation a lot less stressful!

Divorce is insanely difficult for most of us and my divorce was no different. My marriage of 15 years ended and had a number of somewhat complicated aspects...contentious spouse, non-working spouse, somewhat complicated assets, and an aggressive attorney on the other side. Becky maneuvered, in ever...y instance, with skill and thoughtfulness and in a way that was also very personal and personable. I hear complaints about divorce attorneys all of the time and I met a good number of very bad divorce attorneys with no scruples or ethics. Unfortunately, it is more common than one could ever imagine with divorce attorneys. It is relatively rare to find such a personable and skillful divorce attorney that has your best interests at heart while also being an effective and efficient attorney. Becky is one of those attorneys. She will work to advance your standing in a divorce, however, like all legal matters, it is just natural that you can't get everything you want. Most importantly though, Becky is a fair minded and dedicated attorney that will work closely with you to achieve the best scenario that can be achieved. She will not over promise you or instigate you into unnecessary actions or charges. She will guide you to the best possible solution and work to achieve the best possible solution. When attorneys are not straight with you and when they do whatever you want, they garner more fees. Becky does not operate that way. She is pragmatic and even when I didn't want to hear the reality at certain intervals and when I wanted to litigate more and more, she was always the voice of reason and very pragmatic. The law is actually kind of straightforward, and maybe not always logical as far as my prism is concerned, however, Becky knows the law really well and can maneuver to your best solution and with an efficiency that will keep the costs as minimal as they can be. Trust me when I tell you that there are far too many divorce attorneys that simply want to see both parties fight endlessly. Unfortunately, the law is plain enough to understand that fighting between two parties only ends up benefiting the attorneys. If you are reading this review, good luck in your divorce process as it is not typically an easy process. Just keep your head about you and I can only hope that you are smart enough and lucky enough to have an attorney like Becky in your employ.

We have worked with Becky for almost 3 years. She has exuded professionalism, attention to detail and a caring “bedside manor” from the very first phonecall until our case was settled. We had a very dufficult case, but Becky explained every step and prepared us for possible outcomes and all conseq...uences. From initial consult, preparing for trial and eventually negioating an agreement she delevered at all stages. Pricing and costs were clear and reasonable. Bottom line Becky Zeilenga is a caring, responsive and can be tough when needed family law attorney. I recommend her without reservation. -Daniel
