The best divorce/child custody attorney

Rebecca did an exceptional job from the very start of our consultation all the way to the dissolution of my marriage. We had many obstacles and challenges and she was very quick to overcome them and kept me at ease. She always promptly responded to any issues, concerns and questions I had. She helped... me tremendously to protect my children when I needed the legal authority and I’ll forever be grateful for that. She is very pleasant to work with. I highly recommend Rebecca, you will be in good hands.

Rebecca is amazing

We hired Rebecca after using a different family law attorney who we were not happy with. We were recommended to Rebecca by a friend who happened to be one of the best prosecuting attorneys in the state. We knew if this attorney was recommending her, she had to be exceptional. Seconds in to our... consultation with her, we knew we made the right decision. Rebecca is the most compassionate, dedicated, hard working professional we have ever met. She truly cared about us and our case. She is beyond smart when it comes to family law (sad that we actually have to say that but so many family law attorneys seem to need help in this area). Rebecca stayed in continuous contact with us, explaining every step of this process. Our case was a contentious one, that included multiple court appearances and litigation, and Rebecca was a superstar. She is a tenacious trial attorney. She has the ability to be an amazing lawyer both in and out of court. She is ethical and does not "fight dirty". Rebecca was the reason our case turned out the way it did. She also fought for attorney fees in our case, and in her usual style, was successful. The family law process is a scary one. Rebecca constantly calmed our nerves, answered every question we ever had, and made us feel like we were her only clients (believe me, we were not). She was available to us at all hours, and was a true ally to us. I have never met a person who is so motivated, genuine, intelligent, and caring as Rebecca Marquis. I would (and have) highly recommend her to anyone. Perhaps most importantly, Rebecca actually cares about her clients. We went in hiring Rebecca as our lawyer, and ended our journey with not only the best lawyer that we could have ever imagined, but a new friend as well. Five stars are not enough.

If ever an attorney deserved 6 stars it's Rebecca

I've been working with Rebecca for over a year now and I've been blown away by her skill, responsiveness, intellect, and temperament. First I will say that my case isn't typical and I doubt the process would be as dragged-out as much as mine has been because of the particulars in the case. She has an... excellent feel and temperermant that goes a long way to getting both parties to an agreeable solution. In my opinion there are too many attorneys who look to fan the flames of their clients' emotions in what is almost always a powderkeg of hostility. Rebecca is the opposite; she will work for ways to avoid court unless the opposing counsel/party are being unreasonable. In that case she can be an absolute bulldog. In the courtroom she is poised but aggressive when need be. She's very responsive and a pleasure to work with. I really can not say enough. I met with and vetted a half dozen attorneys in the Valley, but I wish I'd saved the time. I've been 110% satisfied with my decision to have her in my corner.

The Lawyer I should have used years ago

Rebecca is wonderful, always attentive to my case and response time for emails and phone calls is beyond the call of any lawyer, she always kept me in the loop and didn't try to gouge me on my fees like most lawyers. she handels her self profesionaly and knows more than most lawyers I know, I only w...ish I had used her 8 years ago in my divorce to start with rather than waste my money on a crap lawyer that I had before. I would absoulutly recomend her to anyone , any time. She got me exactly whatI asked for and then some.

Rebecca Marquis

Rebecca was very helpful and successful in the modification of my parenting plan. She is very knowledgeable and unbiased...she will tell you like it is. She was very considerate and always available and quick to respond. While any child custody/parenting related case is stressful, Rebecca helped m...e feel more at ease about the whole drama of the situation. She is an excellent Lawyer and I would recommend her to anyone needing legal assistance; and I would definitely use her services again, if needed.
