Smart, professional, perceptive, precise, thorough and always a step ahead of me (and the opposition), Attorney Kolsky guided me through stressful litigation. We met several times, via zoom and phone, and I came away from each interaction feeling more confident and sure. She is level-headed, fair, has a healthy sense of humor, and always focusses on what is in the best interest of the child(ren). Retaining her to represent me is the best decision I made and, although I would have preferred not to have to go through a legal process, it was so much more survivable because she was on my side. I slept better, knowing that she “had my back.” As I type this review, I remember reading the others here before I called Attorney Kolsky. And now that I am on the other side, I agree wholeheartedly with the comments about her knowledge, empathy, and dedication (many of her emails came after midnight, while others were before 6 a.m.!). Although, thanks to her, we were able to avoid court, I can imagine that she would be a “Mike Tyson,” “Jedi Knight,” or “Ninja” in the courtroom. Finally, I do not live anywhere near Philly, but because everything is virtual these days, I was able to benefit from her excellent advice for my small town case.

Rebecca Kolsky is without a doubt incredible at what she does for a living! I wish there were more than 5 stars to rate her performance in the court room. Her on the job knowledge, expertise and professionalism speak for itself. I was involved in an 8 year on going custody battle where I was bullied and treated unfairly by the court system until Rebecca Kolsky entered the scene and justice was served! My children and I are FOREVER grateful for her passionate dedication to our case. She is like the Mike Tyson of the court room for sure. Rebecca is prompt, answers any concerns and walks you thru the entire process every step of the way. Hands down the best attorney I have ever dealt with. If you need justice, peace of mind and possibly your family back Rebecca Kolsky is your girl to get the job done!

Court, Custody, and lawyers are all very intimidating but when you have Rebecca in your corner, you know she will advocate for you as if you were her closest friend. She cares about me, and most importantly, my children. If your expectations or requests are unlikely, she will be honest with you. She does not waste your time or your money. She works for every penny and is relentless in her efforts to achieve the best outcome possible for her client. I am forever grateful that I am lucky enough to call her my attorney and would recommend her to anyone in need of an advocate who will know your case and fight for you. The woman will sacrifice sleep for days because she cannot rest unless she knows she is fully prepared to represent her client in court. You will not regret hiring Rebecca and once you see her in action you will be grateful that you were smart enough to choose her to represent you.

After having wasted money on an awful, heartless, money-grabbing lawyer at a different prestigious law firm I was feeling thoroughly dispirited. Thankfully a kind friend recommended Rebecca to me (after consulting a large group of her lawyer friends). From the get-go Rebecca was refreshingly professional whilst also being incredibly kind and understanding. She took the time to really understand the details of my somewhat complicated case and held my hand throughout the daunting process. I always felt like I had a strong ally in my corner advocating for my needs and for those of my child. Everything was dealt with in a timely manner, with Rebecca always paying careful attention to my changing circumstances ensuring the path we were on worked best for me. I want to emphasize the level of compassion and care I felt with every interaction I had with Rebecca. I will never forget how much she changed my life for the better and will be forever grateful for her amazing empathy as well as her sheer strength in standing up to my spouse's lawyer for me. She is the best and I 100% recommend her.

I’m forever grateful for Rebecca! I was really at my worst and felt completely overwhelmed with my situation. Not only did she make me feel completely comfortable but she honestly came in like a “ Superhero”. Rebecca takes the time to listen and was completely compassionate regarding what I had going on. I’ve dealt with previous lawyers before and I’m telling you this type of compassion isn’t the norm. Not only will Rebecca get the job done she will do it with ease, professionalism, compassion, knowledge of the law, master at her craft, good judgement, great listening skills , excellent writing ability and her communication skills are something to really be thankful for. I would say Rebecca is one of a kind and if you’re in the need of fantastic lawyer. You found her. Thank you Rebecca for being my Super Hero!

I was in a very sudden custody crisis and, in consultations with lawyers provided through my employer, I found many very impartial and dismissive. I sensed no confidence and figured this would be the norm from any lawyer I went to for help. I figured I would be on my own, learning how things worked as I went, while figuring out how to optimize dispassionate legal help. Then I found Rebecca! She knew what needed to be done, legally and personally. she listened, she empathized, she broke down every step and explained each option clearly. Knowing that time was an issue, she worked late to make sure everything was filed the next morning. Hiring her was the first breath of relief I found in the midst of that crisis and I am so grateful for her, and all of those who pushed me in her direction.

I hired Rebecca in August after wasting thousands of dollars on a dishonest lawyer who really did not care about me or my son. Rebecca represented me better than I could have ever imagined. She is an advocate who really cares and who will keep you informed, who will fight for you and be the voice that you need to represent you! Rebecca is the absolute best!!
