The Absolute Best Attorney – Ms. Palmer is Unmatched!

I had the extraordinary privilege of working with Ms. Palmer, and I can say with complete confidence that she is, without a doubt, the most exceptional attorney I have ever encountered. From the very first consultation to the final resolution of my case, she went above and beyond in every possible wa...y. Her legal expertise is nothing short of brilliant—she possesses an unmatched ability to strategize, anticipate challenges, and develop a winning approach that ensures the best possible outcome. Her attention to detail is impeccable, leaving no stone unturned in her relentless pursuit of justice. Every aspect of my case was handled with precision, skill, and a level of professionalism that is truly rare. What truly sets Ms. Palmer apart, however, is her deep compassion and unwavering dedication to her clients. She is not only a powerhouse in the courtroom but also a kind, understanding, and empathetic advocate who genuinely cares about the people she represents. She took the time to listen to my concerns, always ensuring that I felt heard, valued, and supported throughout the entire process. Legal matters can be overwhelming, but with her by my side, I felt a sense of confidence and peace of mind that I never thought possible. Her ability to communicate complex legal matters in a clear and concise way is extraordinary. She patiently explained every detail of my case, making sure I fully understood my options and empowering me to make the best decisions. She was always available to answer my questions, responding quickly with thoughtful and thorough explanations. Her negotiation skills are masterful—she knows exactly when to be firm and assertive, and when to find common ground to achieve the best possible outcome. No challenge was too big for her, and she approached every aspect of my case with an unshakable determination and confidence that was truly inspiring. Her integrity, honesty, and ethical standards are beyond reproach. She is the kind of attorney who not only fights for her clients but does so with the utmost professionalism, fairness, and moral clarity. She genuinely cares about justice, and it is evident that her work is more than just a job—it’s a calling. If you are looking for an attorney who is brilliant, compassionate, dedicated, and truly the best in the field, look no further than Ms. Palmer. She is not just an outstanding legal professional—she is a fierce advocate, a trusted advisor, and an incredible person who will fight for you every step of the way. Hiring her was the best decision I could have made, and I will forever be grateful for the extraordinary representation she provided. Without hesitation, I wholeheartedly recommend Ms. Palmer to anyone in need of top-tier legal counsel. She is, quite simply, the best. Her willingness to go the extra mile speaks volumes about her character and commitment to her clients. She is truly one of a kind!

Horrible

I am a victim of domestic abuse. My life has been threatened numerous of times by my sons father even in front of my kids. I have several police reports documented where he became extremely hostile , one including me having to lock myself In the bathroom with my kids till the police arrived . The las...t incident was when he pushed me off my bed simply because I said "leave me alone". I now have a restraining order and It was the best decision I have ever made. I am finally free, and totally had forgotten what living life was really all about. My ex is an alcoholic with a narcissist disorder. And no I'm not just an angry/jealous ex as ms palmer continuously would make me feel like by repeatedly telling me "you need to understand that you guys are no longer together" . It was very confusing to me to hear that since if I wanted to be with him clearly I don't believe I would of went out of my way to get a restraining order. We met up for less than an hour and she barely let me talk about the issues and my worries, and when I did she would tell me "I'm not your therapist". She just went with it as if we were a married couple (which we weren't) that had split and needed to go to court for custody, visitation, child support with absolutely no other issues involved . DCF is involved and has done an investigation which ended up finding him at fault of neglect of both my children. My oldest confessed that he would continuously hit him and throw him at times. When I mentioned that to Ms palmer her reply was "he's most likely just mad at him right now". I told her I wanted supervised visitations until he finished therapy/anger management and alcohol treatment of some kind . Her response to me is "this isn't the right case for it to be supervised ". Anyways we go to court and end up agreeing with limited visitations gradually increasing over the months. She failed to even bring up any of the police reports or all the duis he has accumulated in the past, not to mention the hit and run he recently just had also, his anger problems, buying non prescribed medication and selling drugs. He is not the custodial parent and yet she tells me that I need to let him claim my son in the taxes , when 1 he lost custody 2 we were never married and 3 he hasn't been providing for him for more than 6 months. She also told me that I would be getting back child support , and that first few checks were going to be higher until all the back child support was paid off. When I got my first check I noticed it was the normal amount and noThing more . When I called her asking her about it she tells me "well you read the agreement and signed it " . I also spoke to her in confidentiality saying that I had to bring him to small claims court because he owes me a good amount of money , at the end of court she tells me she spoke to his lawyer about that issue and she also tells me that it's in my best interest to just move on with the loss because it can conflict with this hearing (whatever that means) . I'm totally blown away by her lack of interest. I have spoken to many people about this including my therapist and other legal consultants And I've been told she's very uneducated, and lazy. I have done nothing wrong to deserve such mistreatment from someone that's supposed to be a "professional lawyer" . When I called her about the back child support I told her that I had hired her for her to guide me in the right direction and that it didn't seem like that's what was going on. She automatically became very defensive and said "well you can do it on your own from now on since you think you can do a better job because I'm done with your case and I'm resigning right now. Absolutely one of the worst experiences I have ever dealt with, and like I mentioned I'm beyond blown away.
