Least Child Focused Attorney I have ever encountered

My experience with Rebecca Pepin was the complete opposite of what her biography suggests. In court, she came across as arrogant, dismissive, and shockingly unconcerned with my child’s safety. When I told the judge my child was in imminent danger because of her client’s actions, the expression she di...rected toward both of us made it clear she viewed my concerns as exaggerated or inconvenient. In my opinion, she relied on intimidation rather than integrity. Her loud, dominating tone, irrelevant case law, and strategic pressure felt designed to overwhelm mothers who are already stressed and vulnerable. Nothing about her behavior suggested compassion or child-centered advocacy. Based solely on what I witnessed, she appeared comfortable presenting things in ways that felt misleading or distorted, especially when describing anyone who opposed her client. In my experience, she even framed a repeated question—asked only because her client avoided answering the first time—as “harassment.” That accusation felt less like a fact and more like a tactic. One thing that stood out to me after reviewing her online presence is that she has no reviews from single mothers in high-conflict custody cases. In my personal view, that absence speaks volumes. From what I experienced, she did not treat protective mothers with respect or empathy. Instead, it felt like she used her background in domestic violence advocacy not to help victims, but in ways that ultimately benefited the very types of individuals those victims often need protection from. That was deeply unsettling. And here is the harsh truth I took away: her confidence seems to come not from compassion or credibility, but from knowing the system so well that she appears comfortable bending narratives in whatever direction benefits her client. The disconnect between the attorney described on her website and the one who showed up in the courtroom was striking. If you are a parent entering Colorado family court — especially a single mother advocating for your child’s safety — I hope my experience helps you walk in with more awareness than I had. Awareness is protection.

Honest, hardworking Longmont Attorney

Ms. Pepin took over my divorce case when my first attorney in the matter dropped the case after taking thousands of dollars for doing nothing. Ms. Pepin is honest, hardworking, smart as a whip and dedicated to her clients and the well-being of her clients even after the matter has been legally resolv...ed. In court, she is focused and assertive. She is able to follow the judge, opposing counsel and on-going client questions with precision and a quick mind. She is not intimidated and responds to every action and motion swiftly. Her fees are reasonable and she goes above and beyond for her clients. I would highly recommend her.

Could not have asked for a better attorney!~

Real simple: I never give (essentially) 10's across the board when I'm reviewing anyone or anything. However, Rebecca was awesome! She stepped out of her current area of practice to help me with a situation involving my granddaughters. Although she advised me a couple of times that she wasn't sur...e about laws having changed, she went back to another partner in the firm that was accustomed to situations such as mine to get the answers and direction. Some might have rated "knowledgeable" a little lower because of this, however someone telling me "I don't know, but let me find someone that does!" goes a long way! She was quick, efficient and quite effective. She was compassionate, passionate and empathetic. Rebecca helped with the initial step, and then signed on as attorney of record so that I would not have to leave the state that I had moved my granddaughters, to attend additional court dates; she appeared on my behalf, while I made my appearance by phone. She helped make my life so much easier . . . I could not have asked for a better attorney!
