For Rebecca Tillery, representing a client in divorce allows her to utilize many different areas of the law, including elements of real estate law, tax law and on some occasions even criminal law. “Family law runs the gamut,” Ms. Tillery says. The opportunity to use her expertise in support of her clients drove her to this practice. While at Koons Fuller, Ms. Tillery has built a thriving appellate practice, which gives her a special edge in family law. “Working on an appeal allows me the chance to help shape the law in our state while also honing my persuasive writing and speaking skills,” she says, “and those skills can come in handy whether in settlement negotiations or at a full-blown trial.” After clerking for Koons Fuller during law school, Ms. Tillery joined the firm in 2007 as an Associate in the Dallas office. Having grown up in the Plano area, Ms. Tillery enjoys using her extensive knowledge of both Dallas County and Collin County to serve a wide range of clientele. Especially within her appellate practice, Ms. Tillery gets the chance to represent individuals from all over the state and enjoys the challenge that comes with such a far-reaching practice. Ms. Tillery earned a bachelor of business administration in finance at the University of Texas at Austin in 2003 with a concentration in accounting. After college, she worked as a financial analyst for a global business services company.
