Just extraordinary.

Alethea Rebman is simply the best attorney ever. She's responsive and fierce and patient and specific, exactly the kind of person you'd want in your corner. She assisted my fiance with a motion for post-decree relief after his divorce, and we will absolutely not hesitate to hire her if we have need o...f her services in the future. What a great advocate.

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.

GREAT Lawyer for divorce and child custody issues!!!

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.
