Rebecca helped make a difficult time less stressful

no one wants to have to get a divorce. I certainly did not, however it ended up being very necessary. I called Rebecca to tell her I wanted to pay the retainer and start the process that same day. I told her I had asked my husband for a divorce and for him to move out but he refused.She explained ev...erything very well, all the ways we could proceed and I was able to choose. Within days he was served and soon after moved out. He finally got the message thanks to the legal process Rebecca helped me through so graciously.

Confident and looking out for your best interest!

I met Rebecca a few years ago after calling several different attorney's who did not give me full answers and just wanted my money. She was responsive from start to finish. Every question I made via email or phone was addressed in a timely manner. She gave me options and scenarios keeping me inform...ed throughout the process. As a woman she understood my family's needs and was aggressive when she needed to be. Rebecca is very knowledgeable and made me feel at ease through this difficult time. I would definitely recommend her to others going through a child custody and divorce battle.

Affordable and Very Professional!

I was facing a messy divorce after many years of marriage. A friend recommended Rebecca to me. I'm glad I decided to retain her services. She handled my case with a great deal of personal attention and professionalism. She always kept me informed and answered my questions. I highly recommend her serv...ices if you are looking for an affordable and trustworthy attorney who will give your case a great deal of personal attention.

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.
