Alethea Kyoko Rebman

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.

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.

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.

If you are going through a divorce with custody issues, you need a great attorney who knows the law, how to litigate in court, and cares about you. This is especially true if you are dealing with an uncooperative spouse. Alethea knows how to fight and win in court, and she also looks for ways to st...ay out of court. Alethea is incredibly intelligent, perceptive, and ethical. Her attention to detail is impeccable. Family court is extremely personal as well as emotionally draining, I really cannot express how thankful I am to have had Alethea and her staff represent and work with me. In the middle of a move out of state, my ex filed for divorce with full custody. I did not see it coming. Worse, she did everything she could to keep the children from me. My first lawyer had no idea what to do, and I lost valuable time. Alethea stepped up immediately and submitted a very scholarly motion into the court that restored my phone and physical visits. I rearranged my life and returned to Hawaii, only to find out my ex’s real plan was to move to another state. Alethea masterfully litigated in court to protect my visitation rights, resulting in an award of joint custody with the children spending half the time with me. Alethea’s litigation experience in the prosecutor’s office was invaluable. After years of being bitter and vindictive towards me, my ex ultimately decided to leave Hawaii and planned to take the children with her. Thanks to Alethea’s expertise in family law the children are now with me full time. Alethea still checks in with me from time to time just to see how the family is doing. Thanks to Alethea, I can always respond that the family is doing great. Without all the drama, my daughters are now excelling in school and have many friends, which was not the case before.

For the most part I don't believe most of the population walks around from day  to day anticipating ever having to navigate the legal system. Even to the most educated, it can be a nightmare, full of legal jargon, statutes and rules. This is the situation my family was faced with during a two year di...vorce/ child custody battle. After reviewing her impressive educational background including years at Cornell University, her years of experience in the Hawaii court system, and her general advocating and service to the surrounding community we decided choose Alethea Rebman for our family court needs. This is the best decision we could of made. She acted as a die hard advocate for us from day one and handled our case with understanding and expertise. Nothing about our case was simple or cut and dry. Yet we couldn't be happier with the end results. Ms Rebman continues to follow up and guide us as needed. She and her colleagues receive 5/5 stars in my book and come highly recommended. There is no doubt that should the need arise we will turn to her services again.
