About Pamela
Biography
Experience is the Answer. Criminal Defense is all that I do and have been doing for over 40 years. (District & Superior.)
I consider my home base to be in the Boston Municipal Court system, which encompasses most of the Greater Boston area.
I have also traveled to every other court in the eastern half of Massachusetts, from Wareham to Salem.
I know most of the Judges, ADA's and PO's. I have a good rapport with them all.
I have handled over 10000 cases in all types of criminal situations, from OUI to Armed Robbery. My last trial was in the Woburn Superior Court, where after a two-week trial, the Jury found my client Not Guilty.

Terrible lawyer
She won't send you documents about your case and will ignore you to help drug dealers instead of paying clients.

Replied last November 2, 2023Some clients make unreasonable immediate demands thinking only of their wants and needs. They fail to realize that an attorney needs to deal with her cases in order of priority. Pending cases at a critical juncture necessitate others having to wait.

She did a great job answering my questions
I asked more than one question to her and she had great answers and legal advice. Unlike another attorney that basically trolled me. Thanks again Attorney Morris you have been great.

Great lawyer
Pamela is awesome. She got my brothers case dismissed after I hired her because I didn’t like the job his previous lawyer provided. She is very knowledgeable of the law and effective. She doesn’t not pay around and you can tell that she cares. I am so happy I made the choice to switch to her because ...

Pamela A. Morris's Lawyer Endorsements
"I endorse Pamela Morris as a peer and colleague."
"I have watched Attorney Pam Morris handle criminal matters in Courts throughout the Commonwealth of Mass, and sat next to her on Mass. CLE meetings. At every hearing Attorney Morris was professional, incredibly knowledgeable, moved to dismiss criminal matters on her client's behalf, and was shown respect by the Judges and Clerks [important]. Any defendant would be lucky to have such an experienced, battle-tested trial attorney like Pam Morris by their side when facing criminal charges."
"I endorse this lawyer."
"I endorse this lawyer. She is terrific in the court room as her years of experience show. She is knowlegable, well-spoken and very persuasive. We worked on a case together and she was key in getting a very favorable outcome. I trust her completely."

Professional misconduct
This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2005.
Public Reprimand issued in MA, 2005
updated on 11/11/2015Public reprimand means that an attorney did something wrong, but may still practice law. The attorney was given a public reprimand in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior. Details of the infraction are made part of the public record.
Pamela’s comment:
“The client wanted to avoid going to trial but the Judge would not grant a continuance. The case went forward to trial but on a recess the client ran out of the courthouse and disappeared. The Judge insisted on continuing the trial without her. I remained silent trying to get her a mistrial and this silence was later used by her appeals attorney to get a new trial and it worked. I was reprimanded for this failed tactic. My client pleaded out to time served.”
