If you need someone who understands the law and will help you

Rebecca helped me so much with my divorce. It was a very stressful time for me and my first lawyer wasn't giving me clear answers. From my first consultation with Rebecca I could tell she had excellent understanding of the law and what was fair. She clearly has dealt with many types of cases and pers...onalities and is not afraid to stand up for what is right. I felt so relieved to have her guidance. I highly recommend her to anyone needing a good divorce lawyer.

Rebecca Long Okura's Lawyer Endorsements

Endorse Rebecca

Theodore Weckel

Family lawyer | May 15

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. Rebecca is a tenacious and zealous advocate for her clients. Exceptionally bright, she is a sophisticated examiner of the opposing party. Savvy negotiator, she is a formidable opponent in a litigation matter. However, she also has common sense, and realizes the practicality and the need to settle a case when it is not in her client's best interest to try a case. She is a warm and friendly colleague outside of the courtroom, which also facilitates resolution. Rebecca is a good choice if you have a family law case."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
