Regina Jackson believes law to be the merger of several of her passions. She likes solving puzzles, seeking answers to problems and analyzing results. “I like the logic of it,” Regina says. “I like analysis. You start with a question, and you have to find the best solution. It’s like putting together a puzzle.”. Regina worked for Wyatt Tarrant & Combs in Lexington, primarily practicing employment law, before joining ELPO in 1993. “There was opportunity here,” Regina says. “I was coming from a large firm, and I wanted something similar on a smaller scale. I got the professionalism of the attorneys here and the challenge of the work. I would put ELPO lawyers against any of the lawyers from the large firms.”. Since coming to ELPO, she’s used her extensive knowledge of employment law every day in working with clients. Regina is considered extremely knowledgeable regarding the Family Medical Leave Act. This law requires employers of a certain size to allow employees to take up to 12 weeks of unpaid leave to care for a sick family member or their own serious health condition, recover from childbirth, or other similar reasons. The law was changed recently to accommodate the needs of active military personnel. “Certainly, any employer wants to try to accommodate employees who have serious health conditions,” Regina says. “But there seems to be a handful of people who abuse the good intentions of the FMLA, and do so often enough that the business is really hampered because the employee is missing a lot of work time. I can advise them as to the best methods to handle the situation that are fair and legal for all involved.”. She also applies her employment law knowledge in working with school districts, and that experience stretches all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court. In 1998, she filed an Amicus Brief on behalf of the Kentucky School Boards Association in the case of Gebser v. Lago Vista Independent School District (in Texas). In that case, a parent sued the school district after their child was sexually involved with a teacher, arguing that the district was responsible for the teacher’s behavior. The brief that Regina filed argued that a school district was only responsible if those with the power to change the situation knew about it and did nothing. The Supreme Court sided with the districts, agreeing with Regina’s position. The Kentucky School Boards Association hired ELPO to write the Amicus Brief to help protect the interests of school districts in Kentucky. “If the case had gone the other way, it would have allowed school districts to be held responsible for the actions of individual teachers in all types of situations, when, in almost all cases, the district’s administrators do not know that anything improper is taking place,” Regina said. “The responsibility lies with the individual teachers to behave properly with students, as administrators can’t be present in every classroom ensuring proper behavior.”. Bowling Green has become home to Regina. It’s a “big city on a small scale,” she says. She is married and has a daughter, Leah, who was adopted from China. “Having Leah adds a whole new level of interest for me in working with school systems,” Regina says. “I’m even more interested now in how the system operates and with helping students succeed.”

Family law is at the heart of what matters most to all of us. Over the course of nearly two decades of practice, attorney Rebecca Simpson has come to understand that the issues addressed in the practice of family law are deeply important to everyone. “Family law impacts the security and well-being of our children, the stability of our family relationships, the protection of our homes, and, ultimately, the insurance of our legacies,” Rebecca says. “Still, every case is as unique and as complex as the people involved.”. Rebecca is a Bowling Green native. She graduated from Western Kentucky University with highest honors and earned a full academic scholarship to Brandeis School of Law at the University of Louisville. After graduating with honors from Brandeis law school, Rebecca began her legal career in Louisville, Kentucky where she focused her practice on family law and enjoyed a thriving private practice.. After starting a family of her own, Rebecca returned to Bowling Green where she has continued her dedication to the practice of family law. For eight years, Rebecca served as the Warren County family law litigator for Kentucky Legal Aid. In 2016, she brought her dedication to family law and her commitment to public service to ELPO. She was named partner at the firm in January 2018. “Family law encompasses all facets of the law and has a profound and fundamental impact on our clients and on our community,” Rebecca says. “My family is what matters most to me. When representing a client in a family law case, I recognize and respect that I have been entrusted with what matters most to our client.”. Many times, the family law case represents an extremely difficult time in a person’s life. “I view my relationship with our clients as one of collaboration as we navigate the challenges and triumphs of their case,” Rebecca says. What has continually drawn Rebecca to family law is that, “you learn your client’s stories and the stories of their family. You discover how things began, where they may have gone wrong, and how to guide people forward to a promising future.”. Rebecca understands the impact of divorce actions on all aspects of a client’s life, not the least of which are the repercussions that divorce can have on a client’s assets and estate. The impact of divorce on a client’s holdings and how those holdings may ultimately be distributed must be carefully considered and appropriately addressed within family law proceedings. Rebecca’s understanding of potential pitfalls that may be encountered during divorce is vital to ensuring the protection of our clients’ interests and those of their intended beneficiaries as they move forward in life.. Rebecca is quick to point out that family law isn’t just about divorce. “It is multi-faceted,” she notes. For example, Rebecca also commits her professional efforts to adoption, mediation and appeals.. “Few experiences are as joyful as helping people expand their family,” says Rebecca says when discussing adoption. However, joyful as it is, adoption is a complicated process requiring strict compliance with statutory mandates. Rebecca provides a steady and assuring hand through the complexities of adoption.. Additionally, Rebecca is a trained mediator who has been recognized and approved by the Kentucky Administrative Office of the Courts and by the Warren County Family Courts. Mediation is a process in which a neutral mediator encourages and helps disputing parties reach a mutually acceptable agreement outside of court. Rebecca identifies the value of mediation as, “giving people the power to solve their own problems. The fact that people, through mediation, are able to fashion their own solutions to their problems helps ensure a resolution that is more likely to last.”. Rebecca also has extensive appellate experience and has successfully represented numerous clients at the appellate level. Most recently, in 2014, Rebecca helped establish Kentucky law regarding child custody jurisdiction in the published opinion of Danaher v. Hopkins, 449 S.W.3d 765 (Ky. App. 2014). Rebecca’s successful appeal in that matter is illustrative of her commitment to the interests of her clients and of her understanding of the nuances of family law.. Throughout her career, Rebecca has been committed to professional excellence and to the improvement of the practice of law. To that end, Rebecca is the Chair of the Altnernative Dispute Resolution Committee for the Family Law Section of the American Bar Association, a Fellow of the Kentucky Bar Foundation, and is a member of the IOLTA Board of Trustees. Also, in 2016, Rebecca was appointed by Chief Justice John Minton, Jr. to serve as a Kentucky Trial Commissioner. As a Trial Commissioner, Rebecca presides over disciplinary actions brought by the Kentucky Bar Association against individuals accused of professional misconduct.

Practice Areas: Divorce & Separation

As a lawyer, I realize that most of my clients come to me through referrals.  It's important to me that every client understands their particular situation, and is comfortable enough with me to ask any question.  I know that while court may be an every day experience for me, it's not for most of my clients, and I try my best to take some of the fear out of the process.  Most importantly, I do my best to cut through the bull, and give advice that I would give to any family member.. Despite what some may think, divorce is not a win/lose endeavor.  The goal of every divorce is to find solutions that work for the family.  While there are times to take the gloves off and fight there also are times to step back and try and find common resolutions.. As a product of divorce, I understand the complexities of raising children during these difficult situations.  As a mother of three children, and three stepchildren, I understand that it's not always easy.  I run a child-centered practice.. In my spare time (who has spare time! ), I love traveling to new places with my kids, boating, reading, and spending time outside.  If you have any questions, feel free to drop me an email.
