Rebecca Perkins, Attorney at Law

Rebecca Perkins, Attorney at Law Aggressive and Affordable Family Law Representation, Flexible appointment times, and Free Consultati You are hiring someone who has the "whole package."

My interest in family law transcends traditional notions of practicing law in a specified field. My first mentor told me once, "there are too many family law attorneys and very few good ones." If you want a quality divorce attorney you need to remember you are not hiring a therapist or a new friend. Someone who will manage your expectations rather than disappoint you. There is an inherent and dist

inct "human" element to dealing with family law clientele. One must be able to empathize without becoming overburdened. Matters of the heart are never to be taken lightly. However, people pay attorneys to think rationally for them when their minds are bogged down with the inconvenient and scary consequences of severing a marriage. It's a delicate dance with humanity and one's natural instinct to seek justice. With the changing economy and political progressive influences, the dynamics of the "American" family, as it were, are quickly evolving. Understanding a divorce today is very different from understanding a divorce 20 years ago. Family law issues today are more complex. For example today "Parental Alienation" has become an important factor in determining custody. For that reason an attorney with a broad range of experience in areas such as psychology could prove to be invaluable. This is what I do, this is why I love it and this is what I ultimately hope to be. Prior to law school, I spent approximately thirteen years cultivating strong administrative skills, customer service skills and management experience. My undergraduate degree is in Political Science with an emphasis on Public Administration. My undergraduate studies afforded me broad and extensive knowledge of best management practices. Specialties: Superior people skills, the ability to deal with high pressure, volatile environments with tact and discretion. "Can not do" is not an option. There is always a way to zealously advocate!

** Keep the sexy photos to yourself unless given express consent to receive them....

In California, cyber flashing—the sending of unsolicited explicit images via digital means, such as AirDrop, text messages, or social media—is a recognized form of sexual harassment. California has taken steps to address this issue legally.

Legal Framework:
1. California Penal Code Section 647(j)(4):
• This statute makes it a crime to distribute unsolicited obscene material electronically with the intent to harass, annoy, or offend.
• Penalties can include fines and potential jail time depending on the severity of the offense.
2. Civil Remedies:
• Victims of cyber flashing can potentially bring a civil lawsuit for damages under California’s sexual harassment laws or general tort laws, such as intentional infliction of emotional distress.
3. Assembly Bill 439 (2023):
• California recently passed AB 439, which specifically targets cyber flashing, making it illegal to knowingly send unsolicited explicit material electronically without consent.
• The law allows victims to seek statutory damages of up to $30,000, as well as attorneys’ fees.
4. Revenge P**n and Cyber Exploitation Laws:
• If the explicit image is part of a broader act of revenge p**n or cyber exploitation, additional criminal penalties may apply under California Penal Code Section 647(j)(4).

Key Considerations:
• Consent is central: Sending explicit material is only legal if both parties consent.
• Digital platforms are also being urged to implement measures to block or prevent unsolicited explicit content, although liability does not typically extend to the platforms themselves.

Let me know if you’d like more details about the applicable legal procedures or resources for victims.

I dare you to put me out of business.

Ending a relationship is an act of kindness rather than something that is abusive, selfish, or immoral.

If we love someone else, if we need to be alone, or if for whatever reason we can no longer live our truth within the confines of a relationship we must all be granted the freedom to walk away from it with dignity without being seen as abandoning our partner, or breaking a sacred vow.

Selfishness is keeping an unwilling partner trapped. It is coercing someone to stay with us through threats and emotional manipulation.

Leaving someone whom we once loved, or even still love, takes a great deal of courage, and that kind of bravery is rarely recognized.

We praise those who can muster the strength to leave abusive situations, but condemn those who part ways because we have evolved out of a relationship.

Unfortunately, this judgment prevents so many individuals from moving forward emotionally and spiritually. It keeps people mired in stagnant, unhealthy situations where they aren’t truly content, because to leave would be to face judgment, to be called a bad person.

With that judgment from peers, friends, and family members comes loss instead of the understanding and compassion that both uncoupled partners need—not just the one who feels left behind.

Real love is fluid and expansive. It needs freedom. Love evolves and shifts over time, just as our perceptions of it do, and should.

As another writer, Glennon Doyle Melton (who is also going through a public separation), says “love never fails,” but sometimes, between two people, it moves on.

We must allow this to happen freely for ourselves, our partners, our loved ones, and for public figures without projecting our own expectations or judgments upon them.

Just because a relationship ends, does not mean it has failed, Melton explains.

She says it has “completed.”

And neither partner should be vilified when this happens.
