Rebekah helped me get my life back

I hired Scott / Rebekah when a single stupid mistake could of easily changed my life forever. Having a very heavy charge hanging over my head and not a clue where to begin, Scott/Rebekah helped guide me through exactly what to expect and how to proceed from day one. Scott and Rebekah are not ones to ...beat around the bush, they tell it how it is which provided me a clear picture of what was to occur in the coming months. Rebekah (who is a former prosecutor) helped me understand how a prosecutor would act in my case and what the state expected of me to ensure no further mistakes would be committed. Over several months Scott and Rebekah were very attentive to my questions and general anxiety regarding my case. Without them, I don't know where I would be and am very thankful for how things turned out. I was able to get the best possible outcome in a very bad situation which is why I would highly recommend them to anyone seeking help.

Top Notch Defense Attorney

Scott Palmer and Rebekah Perlstein are top notch felony defense attorneys. I know from firsthand experience. The worst day of my life was when I was charged with a second degree felony carrying 2 to 10 years in prison. I had hired and fired two law firms before by chance I came to their website. From... the very first contact to the day they told me they were able to get my case dismissed they were professional and awesome in every way. Thats right, I said dismissed. The other attorneys were prepping me for a long hard legal road ahead of me, but with the Palmer Law Firm it was different. They were in my corner and on my side from square one, believing in my innocence and standing up to defend me the way only good defense attorneys with seasoned experience can. My life is still not back to the way it was prior to the arrest, but thank God I hired Scott Palmer to defend me because he and his team including Rebekah Perlstein performed nothing short of a miracle in my case. If Scott (and his team) can’t do it, nobody can in my opinion. But, if other attorneys can’t do it, there is a good chance Scott can, and that’s coming from my experience. If you are ever facing a felony charge give Scott Palmer and Rebekah Perlstein a call. It’s the best thing you can do.

Rebekah is a great lawyer. Don't miss her if you have a big trouble!

Rebekah is a great lawyer. Believe or not. I got a big problem with two felony charges. First of all, she tried to negotiate with the prosecutor to drop my charges to Class A. Later, additionally, I don't know what kind of magic she made, she had both of my charges dismissed. If you have a big tro...uble with a prosecutor, don't miss this amazing lawyer.

if i could give more than 5 stars i would!

this was my first time having any offenses against me and as I'm sure you can imagine it was very nerve racking not knowing what would happen to my future, I was referred to Scott Palmer Law through another attorney and Rebekah was with me every step of the way. Very professional, always setting cor...rect expectations and helping me to keep calm when I would freak out, very responsive whenever I had questions and explained the process very thoroughly. She always kept me in the loop as soon as any new information came out that I needed to be aware of and she ended up getting me into a program to expunge all of the charges against me which is a savior as my career depended on it. I definitely made a big mistake and it taught me a lesson but I couldn't have picked a better attorney to be by my side through this situation. VERY thankful to have found Rebekah in my time of need! 100% would recommend.
