Rebekah Carrie Perlstein

A couple of years ago I made a huge mistake and I was charged with abandon endanger child criminal negligence. I was very new to everything that was happening. I had never been arrested before, so I was very new to the entire process. The day of the incident I was arrested. That evening I was rele...ased on bond. Something I was told NEVER happens so quickly. Right away that told me I had great lawyers that were quick and got things done. I was so grateful that I didn’t have to spend the night in jail. The next day I got to meet my lawyers. They were able to answer all of my questions. My parents were with me and they also answered all of their questions (they had more than I did). I had many questions. I was told that the first thing that needed to be done was getting my grand jury packet together. I had no idea what that was. My lawyers gave me instructions on exactly what I needed to do. The most important thing was getting around 15-character witness letters. Rebekah instructed me exactly how the letters needed to be outlined. Once all the letters were turned in, the grand jury packet was made. The day of the grand jury I was devastated that I was indicted with a felony. Rebekah reassured me that it wasn’t the end. That they were still going to fight hard. Rebekah told me about a diversion program meant for first time offenders. She said she wasn’t sure if I could get it because they usually take cases involving drugs. My case was more unique to the program. She said she would try hard. In the meantime, I had to come to court once a month. That’s what I did. Every time I came Rebekah would be there. It was great to be able to meet with her once a month to find out how things were going. In between the meetings I was able to call or text her at any time I needed help understanding what was happening. Sometimes she even had to explain things more than once. Several months later I was finally accepted into the diversion program. Rebekah had me meet with her and explained what would be required from me while in the program. In another year I will be done with the program, and I know I can call on Rebekah to find out what the next process will be.

Everybody knows we all make mistakes sometimes. When I found myself in trouble with the law I was initially appointed an attorney by the court (bad idea). After nearly a year and a half of getting nowhere, I decided to reach out to Scott Palmer (good idea) who had been representing me, my family, a...nd friends for twenty years. That's how I met Rebekah Perlstein. Scott told me I could trust her to handle my case with the utmost scrutiny and vigor, and I am very happy I did. I spoke to Rebekah on a Thursday night and we were in court the very next morning. Immediately, Rebekah began to negotiate better terms for a plea bargain. The prosecutor was stuck on offering only state-jail time because of a prior offense, which would make it impossible for me to care for my sick mother. Sympathetic to my plight, Rebekah exceeded my expectations, and was able to get the state to offer 5 years probation (no jail time) thus allowing me to tend to my mother and continue with my life. As pleased as I was, she told me to wait one more week so she could work her magic some more. I came back to court the very next week and Rebekah had managed to get the offer down to only 3 years probation! It's not everyday that an attorney exceeds a client's expectations,TWICE! Rebekah Perlstein is a woman who gets results and obtains favorable outcomes for her clients...and she's cool, too! Because of her my mother isn't alone and has the care she needs. All I can say is that I should have hired her sooner. This team is strong.

She was the most reliable attorney I have EVER worked with. She was prompt, knowledgeable of case and court room procedures, super sweet, CANNOT speak highly enough of her performance on my cases since she has been with Scott Palmer and associates. Would not hesitate to use again if needed and woul...d HIGHLY recommend to anyone in need of legal services. Thanks again,
