Rebecca was absolutely fantastic. She helped with a PFA dispute and setting up custody. We will definitely use her in the future if anything would to arise.

This attorney performed remarkably to say the least. I was issued a PFA following a domestic catastrophe. After 3decades plus of marriage, I find myself in court in an adversary scenario with my spouse. I was extremely discouraged, depressed, anxiety filled etc. Enter attorney Canterbury, file folder in hand. Her approach was determined but gentle. Humble. Obviously of serious intellect, but never advertising it. She spoke the common mans English ( with a shoeshine ) she IMMEDIATELY placed me at ease. She explained in great detail the course of action she had charted. My son was at my side and she made him all inclusive in the conversation. Ms. Canterbury displayed no ego, or the need to talk through or over us. She has an excellent ear, listening, absorbing and never interrupting. Patient. She assured me when all was said and done , we would be in a better place. When it was time, she made her way down the corridor to meet with opposing council to attempt to negotiate and settle the case. After a few tripsto the opposition and back, we had an agreement with conditions. I won't go into detail except to say the PFA was dropped and the additional conditions we could live with. beyond our expectations. This attorney delivered big time. I recommend her beyond recommendations. This case was no easy endeavor. She persevered with honesty, dignity, and maybe most of all, an unequaled bed side manner. I was so overwhelmed and impressed with her that I composed a little ditty before exiting the courthouse. Here it is. Council Canterbury came to town,documents in hand,resolution bound. She arrived with talent and pure social grace, her professional approach set the pace. The task at hand was a bit of a chore, she accomplished it and a whole lot more Experienced and wise beyond her years ,she calmed my spirit and alleviated my fears. The remainder of the mission is up to me, I ENDORSE Rebecca Canterbury whole heartedly.

I got a PFA against me from my wife. I am new to Usa and my hearing was 31st may. I tired many attorney and couldn't schedule an appointment with anyone since it was very close to my hearing date. Attorney Spivak scheduled an appointment on memorial day since my case was close to hearing. Rebecca and Spivak promised me that we will fight for this case to get dropped. I met Rebecca on court house and promised me you will be fine. 15 minutes after meeting my wife attorney Rebecca came back and shocked me with the good news that "Your PFA is dropped" with what ever agreement I proposed. It was worth waiting and really affordable compared to other attorneys. I really appreciate that Rebecca and spivak took my case and put 100% effort. One of the best PFA attorney around Pittsburgh area, Allegheny county. Thank you for the wonderful job Team.

I highly recommend Spivak Law Firm. I called Tuesday morning with a PFA case pending in six days. Attorneys Todd and Rebecca picked up my call on the first ring, and reworked their schedule to meet with me right away. We were able to obtain a stronger PFA of my own against the plaintiff. I could not have done this without their expertise. I felt welcome and important at all times. They care about you and are here to help you. The flat fee was very reasonable and my emails were always answered right away. My PFA case against me was successfully dropped, my record was expunged and I couldn’t be happier.

I hired Rebecca Canterbury and Todd Spivak to expunge my criminal record and it turned out perfect. Everything expungable, which was most of it, was erased from record. Rebecca is a very nice, intelligent, and caring attorney who honestly did everything she could do and more. I am very glad I decided to hire them and would recommend them for any type of legal issue, especially expungement as in my case. I'm sure they will take care of it. They did everything they said they could do.

I petitioned for 50/50 shared physical custody. Rebecca fought for me against a non-compromising ex-spouse. I followed her advice and listened to her every step of the way. Last Wednesday (11/29)after a long battle in family court we won shared physical custody of my son. We couldn't get my ex-spouse to negotiate to anything. Rebecca was able to plead my request to the judge and get the judge to see the ex-spouse was just being unreasonable. Thanks to Rebecca's tenacity I have the time my son and I deserve with one another.
