Question about brake and pads...

Hi Everyone, I have a question to ask about brake and brake pads. My mom has a 97' S420 and recently she had her rear brake pads changed. After she had her rear brake pads changed there is some low squeaking sounds coming from the rear passenger area. We only hear it during braking or when driving over rough roads. Does anyone know what could be the cause of this?
Thanks in advance for your help.

During the pads change it is recommended to turn the rotors. If it wasnt done, a 100 bucks says this is the cause...
