Rebecca expertly guided me through the divorce process with dedication and compassion. As a highly skilled negotiator, she was able to strategize for the best possible outcome while considering multiple scenarios. Rebecca was professional, responsive and thoughtful. I was more than grateful to have her in my corner!

Rebecca made my process so much more manageable, logistically and mentally. I worked with her on my DIY divorce, and she helped me navigate it start to finish. She helped me get a clear understanding of the paperwork and filings, assisted me with language in documentation, and reviewed the separation agreement before signing. She provided grounded, nuanced advice on my positions, while remaining understanding of the decisions my partner and I were making. Rebecca also helped with general guidance on court dates, how to manage those appearances, and was simply supportive during a very stressful time. I am very grateful.

Rebecca helped me through the divorce process in a professional yet empathetic manner. She helped me figure out what was most important to me and what I could compromise on to keep the process moving. I felt like she was the person I could rely on and trust during one of the hardest things I have ever done. I consulted with a few attorneys before I chose to hire Rebecca. I would recommend her very highly. She also helped me set up my own documents (ie will/trusts/POA) with professionalism and guidance. She explained the documents thoroughly and went over my options for each one individually. I truly say thank you for all that she did for me.

Rebecca was asked to take over my custody case mid-stream and she was great. She listened to me and really heard what I was saying, set realistic expectations and explained her methods and reasoning. I was very hands-on with my case and Rebecca worked well with me. I felt very well represented both in negotiations and in the courthouse.

One of the biggest takeaways I have from my experience working with Rebecca, as she drew up our entire estate plan, trust, proxies, etc. is that she makes sure that the complex issues are made simple, and that I understand what the instruments are intended to do so clearly, that I would feel comfortable explaining them to others. She breaks it down into very consumable language, uses real life scenario examples to illustrate potential outcomes, and really tries to make sure to get to the core of the intent, which may not always come out on the first try of my explanation. I felt well-ushered throughout the project, and walked away feeling confident and covered, knowing my wishes will be well-represented when the time comes to implement the documents.
