A Great Lawyer for High Stakes Litigation

As the GC of a large organization with complex legal issues, I’ve hired dozens of lawyers for all kinds of cases, big and small. When the stakes are high, you want someone like Becca. We first hired Becca to replace a large national law firm years into a complex lawsuit that presented an existentia...l risk to the company. Within a short time, Becca produced a strategy and avenues for success that the entire team of lawyers we had employed for years never presented. The result was that the case was settled with terms favorable to our company and the end of the lawsuit that had hung over our head for a long time. As a former litigator with a great deal of experience in the courtrooms of this state, I can tell you that Becca is on a different level than just about anyone you encounter. She also happens to be a wonderful person. I would recommend her unreservedly.

10 star attorney!

I had the pleasure of working directly with Rebecca since 2017. Since then, Rebecca and her partner James Quadra became two of the attorneys I trust the most, especially when it comes to litigations. Around 2017, my company was having a shareholder dispute that later escalated to a full lawsuit. ... My previous attorneys that I hired before meeting Rebecca were not able to resolve the case and only seemed to have escalated the lawsuit. After the case going no-where for several months, I luckily stumbled upon Rebecca and James Quadra. Rebecca took the time to listen to my case, gave me great advice on how to best proceed, and worked diligently to defend the company and our point of view. She's also a phenomenal writer, which is an extremely important skill set for attorneys, as a lot of opinions/arguments are presented to the other side/judges over writing. Unlike my previous attorneys that I worked with, Rebecca was not only a better writer but also a lot more efficient with the entire process, where she would complete work 2-3 faster than the previous attorneys I've worked with, and also knew how to be aggressive toward the other side when needed. I also felt like she really genuinely cared about me as a person and was really seeking out the best interest of myself and the company. I can go on and add why working with Rebecca was amazing! Overall, because I met Rebecca and James, we were able to resolve the lawsuit successfully and achieve a great outcome for myself and the company. What the other attorneys could not resolve in a few years, Rebecca and James resolved in a matter of months. In a lot of ways, I feel like I found lifelong attorneys that I can completely trust, especially when it comes to litigation. If I could rate them on a scale of 1-5, they truly get a 10!

Smart strategic compassionate attorney - gets results.

Ms. Coll represented me in a wrongful termination case and because of her skills and strategy I made out very well. She always had my best interest in mind. I whole heartedly recommend her to you. Ms. Coll is VERY SMART, hard working and strategic. She was always steps ahead of the adversary. She pus...hed the other side into settling on terms very favorable to me. She is a top notch attorney, and also a very kind and considerate person. I am vey fortunate to have had her advocate for me.

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.
