About Rebecca
Biography
Board Certified Family Law Attorney Rebecca J. Carrillo always wanted to be a lawyer. In school, she never let anyone be bullied and never let anyone sit alone in the cafeteria. From an early age, she had the idea that she could help and defend people. Family law delves into that cornerstone of her personality as there is nothing more personal than protecting someone’s family, assets, and estate. Her practice encourages honesty to and from the client. Unlike other firms, she does not prioritize her business over her clients’ individual needs. She is honest with clients about potential legal costs, as well as the reality of their desired outcome and what the implications are for each course of action. Once you are a client, your attorney’s fees are used efficiently to bring resolution to your case. Attorney Carrillo’s goal is to provide clients outstanding service for a reasonable price commensurate with the intensity of each case.

Steady and Strategic
Rebecca is a great attorney! She is definitely a “no non-sense” professional that understands the legal process and the complex issues that can arise. She has stood by my side for almost 2 years as my lawyer. She cares and knows how to stay ahead of the battles that can often develop in these situ...

Received worth of payment in her knowledge and services! Divorce.
I had misunderstood the free consult offered and found it meant an office consultation, not via phone. Once I scheduled and went in I found Mrs. Carrillo very professional, attentive and sympathetic to my situation. She was the 3rd attorney I had consulted with and felt she would have my best interes...

I was impressed at the fact that she called me after business hours and gave me advise even be...

Greatful grandmother
In August of 2012 I was in need of a lawyer to help me get custody of my 4 year old grandson who was living with me at the time. I called several lawyers and was either told I had no chance of winning or they wanted tens of thousands of dollars which of course I did not have. I had more than enough e...
