An amazing advocate

I felt hopeless until I met Pam. I went through a destructive divorce and experienced continued financial abuse and threats of contempt for the six years that followed. Pam brought new life to an old case. I was amazed when I saw her advocate for me in court. She was a true force with a strong voice.... A voice the court finally heard. Pam was an amazing advocate and through this, she gave me my life back. Watching Pam in court was so empowering. I feel less a victim and more a survivor today because of her. I can now close the door on one of the most painful and difficult times in my life. I'm so grateful to Pam and her A+ legal team for making that happen.

Dependable, Knowledgeable and Great at What She Does

I had more than one awesome experience working with Pamela - She assisted me start to finish on navigating the courts for a legal name change and ultimately I was able to get the result I wanted. She was also there for me when I needed some legal advice as well which was beyond anything I could have ...ever hoped for. I was able to take a case to small claims court on her advice.
