Get back to the guy who did the rebuilding. Possibly something was not done correctly. Check for trouble codes.

If the filter requires replacement, that is his problem. When a rebuild was carried out, he should have cleaned the trans completely and any part that cannot be cleaned has to be replaced.
Checking the filter should not be much of a problem as dropping the oil pan would allow you to do so.

Check for trouble codes.
