About
EDUCATION & TRAININGI earned my law degree from Stanford Law School in 1989, after graduating magna cum laude from Amherst College in 1983. I am licensed to practice law in Maryland, the District of Columbia and California. I am active in state and local bar associations, am a member of numerous organizations devoted to alternative conflict resolution, and am an avid consumer of continuing legal education programs. In recent years, I have received extensive additional training in mediation (90+ hours), collaborative law (30+ hours), parenting coordination (40+ hours) and parent education and Adlerian family dynamics (144+ hours).PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCEMy professional career began in 1983 as a Correctional Ombudsman in the Connecticut prison system, where I investigated and resolved inmate complaints against the correctional department. After graduating law school, I joined the litigation department of Washington D.C. law firm Swidler & Berlin, where I handled complex civil and constitutional cases. After serving as an adjunct professor at Georgetown Law School, I opened my own practice in 1995. I stumbled into family law accidentally, handling my first divorce case for a friend in 1997. Having found my calling, I have focused exclusively on family matters ever since. Over the years, my practice has evolved from a conventional litigation-based practice to a negotiation-based practice in which I can focus on allaying conflict and solving problems.

Rebecca Lippman helped me through a divorce and custody dispute when I was going through a period of emotional and financial distress. Her knowledge of the law made it possible for me to achieve an excellent outcome, both for me and equally important for my then four-year-old child. Her ability to interact effectively with my ex's lawyer saved me time, money and much aggravation. Besides her highly professional lawyering skills, she is a truly motivating force who helped me get on with my life at a time when I was in need of advice in a number of areas. She is experienced, encouraging and focused. I recommend her 100% to everyone seeking to move forward after divorce on a strong and confident footing.
I was dreading the divorce process for a long time after speaking to several contentious attorney's. Although I had a difficult marriage, I had no interest in punishing my ex or engaging in a protracted battle. Rebecca's approach to the process was an absolute revelation to me. She spent a considerable amount of time validating my concerns and walking me through the particulars of this complicated process. I felt understood, well supported and hopeful, due to Rebecca's expertise and optimism. She was knowledgeable, clear and accessible throughout the process and ultimately crafted a reasonable settlement that was fair to both parties. I cannot recommend Rebecca highly enough.
Rebecca Lippman was my lawyer for my recent divorce and I am extremely happy with the services she provided. She approached every problem with intelligence, resourcefulness, and compassion. Rebecca was willing to fight for what was right. She provided support at every step of the way. I recommend her highly.
My spouse had cheated on me and Ms Lippman represented me in collaborative divorce proceedings. When she found out my spouse had cheated, she immediately helped me use that as leverage to gain additional custody while placing even more of a financial burden on my spouse and not me. If you have a cheating spouse, she's going to make him/her pay.
