Failure to Represent

I hired Rebecca to represent me in the probate of my late father’s estate. I engaged her and paid the retainer invoice within two days of receipt. I experienced extreme difficulty reaching her through multiple modes of communication right from the outset and had to proactively initiate requests for u...pdates. After finally receiving a drafted probate application I had it executed, notarized and returned back to Rebecca electronically within 24 hours. The last communication I had from Rebecca was that she would e-file the application that day (June 14). She never actually filed the application with the court and I haven’t heard from her since. I have reached out via phone, online client portal, and certified mail yet still have not received any response weeks later. I officially terminated the client attorney relationship in accordance with the legal services agreement on July 2 but still have not received any communication. In addition she still has possession of my father’s original will to this day (July 13). I cannot caution any prospective clients more as you consider Rebecca as an attorney. My family and I are already experiencing stressful times and I had hoped that hiring Rebecca would help alleviate that stress. Unfortunately, the opposite has happened.

Thank you...

Rebecca deserves ten stars! She is patient, brilliant, down to earth, stays on top of things, and isn't intimidated by ANYONE! I absolutely LOVE her and will definitely recommend her to my friends and family. She will work with you and fights for what is right! She will respond at any time, day or ni...ght, and does things by the book. She is real quick to catch things or suggests things that may help your case. TEN STARS!

Rebecca did an excellent job representing me!

When I called Rebecca I was in a difficult position in a divorce case due to my previous attorney's laziness. My ex wife's mom and dad have money and they paid for my ex-wife's very expensive attorney. Rebecca took my call on the weekend and represented me very well for much less than many attorney's... would have have charged with her level of experience. She only had a couple of weeks to prepare for my final hearing before the judge. My ex-wife's lawyer had over 25 years of experience and Rebecca held her own against her. Rebecca also helped me to win in the finance part of the mediation by helping me reach a negotiation that did not require me to pay any spousal support. I would highly reccomend Rebecca as a divorce attorney. She has a better work ethic that any other attorney I have ever used and many times that is the difference between winning and losing. Rebecca did not nickel and dime me like some attorney's do. She provides quality work for people who cannot afford to pay $400+ an hour for an attorney.

CHILD CUSTODY VICTORY

During the worst time in my life I was blessed to have been recommended to an angel of a lawyer. I had zero knowledge of the law until my ex stole my infant son and wouldn't return him. Not knowing the law, I quickly found out that without any court order there was nothing I could do. A friend of min...e recommended Ms. Rebecca Rowland and after the first conversation with her I felt relief and hope. She sprung into action and represented me as if it was her baby and I will forever be grateful. She was at every court date, she kept me informed every step of the way, and stayed on top of my entire situation until she brought us to victory. I can honestly say Ms Rowland was more concerned about my case and wasn't in for the money like most lawyers. she supported me mentally and emotionally and I couldn't have prayed for better representation . If you need a lawyer that will fight your case with her all and bring you to victory, Ms Rowland is the women for you. I not only won my case but I was blessed with knowledge to past on to others. A child custody case could be a long stressful time but I can assure you, if you choose Ms Rowland as your lawyer, she will fight and do everything in her power to win your case. SHE DID IT FOR ME AND STOPPED THE HARRASSMENT OF MY EX> ( something I thought would never happen) Now my baby boy is back home and he's happy and healthy and no damage was done mentally in regards to the case. I am forever Grateful.

Great Attorney

Ms. Rowland is an excellent attorney! She is very knowledgeable in family/child support laws. While handling my case she had effective communication, and actually returns by calls and answered all my questions. I would defiantly recommend her services!!!
