I wish it was possible to give negative stars. She should be Disbarred!

I believe after viewing video footage of multiple cases, including one under Jerry Springer. She should be Disbarred! I believe that She could be used as the definition for ineffective counsel. The fact that people's lives are resting in her shoulders truly terrifies me. I didn't believe that any att...orney could be this bad. Hearing accusations of her falling asleep, working from her office"McDonald's", and things that sound like absolute fantasy for the level of incompetence, or the many accusations of fraud committed by her I thought must be fake and exaggerated, until you watch court videos if her in action, or read the courtroom minutes and then believe that it is absolutely true, not exaggerated, and could be worse then rumoured. I thought the accusations of her falling asleep during a case was just not possible, but I just watched some court footage that looked like she was stoned while getting removed from a case after getting caught lying to the judge, proving she was not providing proper counsel. I am shocked she is able to practice after what I saw, read and experienced. Personally having a attorney want to have you meet them at a fast-food restaurant should make you research them, and with how easy it was to fall down that rabbit hole. You just can't stop looking deeper thinking it's not possible, until you realize it is possible, and this is scary.

Rebecca Tieppo broke her promises and left me high and dry

I paid Rebecca Tieppo a large retainer. She didn't do ANY of the work that she promised she would do. She made up ridiculous excuses for why she couldn't perform even the simplest of tasks, and she ruined my case. In my experience, Rebecca Tieppo was sneaky and dishonest. Trusting Rebecca Tieppo was ...a terrible mistake. I am currently filing a complaint against her with the state bar. Hire Rebecca Tieppo at your own risk.

Well, since I don't know who you are, anonymous, and I don't know what you are referring to, I can't very well comment on your ridiculous allegations, except to say that what you claim has NEVER OCCURRED in any of my cases. If you are confident in what you allege, please add your real name to your comment. I am sorry you are upset, anonymous. Best of luck to you.
