Rebecca Coll is an aggressive, knowledgeable, intense lawyer that you will be thrilled is your advocate and not on opposing side

Rebecca Coll was incredibly proficient, efficient and wonderful to have on my team during a particularly difficult time in my life when I realized I had been the victim of fraud. She is very no nonsense and direct in approach and gave me great insight into the legal issues regarding my case, as we...ll as, spot on description of what to expect. I felt at ease for the first time in months when I finally had my first conversation with her about the case. My father is an attorney as is my uncle so I've been around the legal profession all of my life. It's extremely important to get the best lawyer you can find and afford--Rebecca was without a doubt an excellent lawyer and adversary. There is a seriousness about her that can be slightly intimidating. I knew I was in great hands from the start and really enjoyed watching her intimidate the hell out of the perpetrator of the fraud.

Excellent Attorney! Highly Recommended!

Extremely responsive, thorough, prepared and effective lawyer who helped us with an intellectual property case. Rebecca was knowledgeable about all aspects of our case, kept us informed at all times, and clearly laid out all of our options as the case moved through the various stages of litigation.

Highly Recommended and very Professional Attorney

I was first introduced to Rebecca Coll when I engaged the services of Calvo, Fisher & Jacob. I was involved in a trust management case, and Rebecca Coll was part of the team that worked for me. My first impression upon meeting Rebecca was that she was extremely competent. I find this to be the mo...st important quality in an attorney, as you need to immediately feel that trust in their capabilities from the onset, and Rebecca made me feel just that. What I didn't understand about lawsuits, is that it takes specific areas of expertise from specific attorneys in the legal process, in order to facilitate a winning strategy. In this particular case, I worked primarily with two attorneys, Rebecca Coll and James Quadra. While James Quadra was the lead litigator and who was equally superb, it was Rebecca Coll who provided the very intelligently written briefs. Prior to this experience, I did not realize the importance of such writings, and the crucial part they play in the whole process. This has to be one of Rebecca's strongest qualities. Her superb writing skills are amazing. I have learned that it takes a special finesse to eloquently surmise in a brief the essence of what the issue of the case is all about, particularly to put it in your favor. Rebecca's critical thinking process that she displayed in her briefs, allowed the whole team to pull together a very clear and strong case, which in turn, provided me with the very outcome that I hoped to achieve when I engaged their services in the first place. In short, I got what I wanted. What was also impressive, was Rebecca's constant communication. This was an attorney who I felt was working for me 24 hours a day. Rebecca never made me feel that there was another client who was more important or more derserving of her attention. Everytime I contacted her, she responded immediately and always in a very positive manner. Lastly, the one thing that was truly reassuring, was that Rebecca Coll, and the whole team of Calvo, Fisher & Jacob for that matter, never made me feel like this was just my problem. On the contrary, Rebecca and the team took all of the pressure off of me, and placed it on themselves. I felt as though they were equally involved in the case as much as I was, which is something I never experienced before. For anyone who is in need of such legal counsel, I would highly recommend Rebecca Coll and the entire staff at Calvo, Fisher & Jacob for their superior legal capabilites.
