Superstar litigator

Alethea prepared me for two trials. Due in no small part to her flawless "witness prep" I prevailed in both cases. She is both incredibly smart and strategic. A former prosecutor, she has a well-earned reputation as one of the VERY best in court, should your case (God forbid) end up there. Most i...mportantly, she really cares about her clients and getting them justice. An excellent advocate!

Outstanding attorney

She was great. She took over my case from another lawyer I had hired after we ran into a wall and became stagnate and did a great job that ensured me a fair and more than amicable divorce. She was logical, straight with no BS and fought for what was right and fair. I my case it's sometimes tough for ...fathers when faced with mountains of false accusations but if you get a good lawyer that will bother to see facts and the truth and is willing to fight for you ….you would be extremely lucky. She was more than caring and went beyond. In the end I walked away with everything I asked for. Thank you AR.

Trusted lawyer on your side

Alethea Rebman is a lawyer you can trust. She has always been open, honest, and available to me whenever I had any questions and was there for me through the entire divorce process. She thoroughly explained the procedures of the mediation process and divorce trial and gave me honest advice to look ...out for my best interest. Alethea has my highest recommendation.

Honest and helpful

When I first went to Ms. Rebman I was ready to hire her that day. She reviewed my case and told me not to spend the money to hire her and could go to a paralegal service for a fraction of the price. She told me a bit about divorce law and what I should look out for. The paralegal service was really g...ood and instead of paying a fat retainer and expensive attorneys fees I was done for less than $1,000 all together. My divorce was done in three months. She steered me right when she could of charged me a lot to do my divorce and she was very nice about it on top of that. Honest, helpful, and knew her stuff.

Excellent attorney!

An attorney friend referred me to Alethea for my divorce. I knew that with my ex being determined to fight me all the way, it would be tough, and it was. I just wanted to be divorced and it was hard to go through this, but Alethea explained the process the whole way. She listened to what I wanted and... gave me assessments of our chances, even when it was bad news, so I did not worry as much that I didn't know where this was all going. She was spot on with what to expect at court and from the judge, and we ended up going to mediation and settling before trial even though we were ready to go to trial. I am glad to have had such a professional guide through it all, and give the highest recommendation.
