Pamela S. Holmes

I retained Pam about 10 years ago for a contentious post-judgment child custody motion. At the time, I was five years into a shared 50/50 residential order that wasn’t working for my kids, and we needed a change. Anyone familiar with this process knows it’s not an easy thing to do. I spent an afte...rnoon at the courthouse in Biddeford observing attorneys with their child custody clients, and I wasn’t impressed. I also spoke with two guardian ad litems who happened to be between clients, hoping for a referral. Both of them recommended Pam—and that spoke volumes. When I met with her, I immediately knew she was the right choice. Pam is well-known and highly respected by her peers, and that matters in family law. With her help, we were able to modify custody without even going to a testimony hearing—she successfully negotiated an agreed-to order with the opposing attorney. As my kids grew older, we needed additional modifications. Pam guided us through those as well, achieving agreements that worked for everyone. She is a skilled negotiator, compassionate, and truly empathetic. If you’re looking for a family law attorney, I highly recommend Pamela Holmes at Holmes Legal Group.

Pamela demonstrates a unique ability to use her knowledge of the law and combine it with her compassion, willingness to listen and excellent communication skills to support and advise her clients effectively. She demonstrates sound judgment and superb competency. She is reliable, thorough and dependa...ble. I highly recommend her to those I know and to anyone who is in need of an excellent attorney and person to lead them through the most challenging legal situations.

Pam Holmes is an excellent attorney for handling extremely difficult and challenging cases involving divorce and custody issues. I couldn't have found a better person to deal with my case, with the legal guardian, and my ex-wife and her lawyer. Pam is organized, very professional, excellent at defe...nding and representing her clients in court and in mediation. I can't say enough good things about her, and I highly recommend her.

Pam was instrumental in helping us with rescheduling our wedding reception in the midst of the Coronavirus health crisis. Her professionalism with our venue coordinators went above and beyond, and enabled us to have a postponement date that worked out for everyone involved. Highly recommend her and... can not say enough how thrilled we found her during this difficult time!

Child Custody/safety cases are by far the most difficult cases on every level. I am so thankful I was referred to Pamela Holmes. She is, hands down, the most straight forward, clear cut, no BS attorney I’ve ever dealt with. I have had 3 others to help me in the past ... none compare, none were able t...o help me at this level. To say I’m Grateful is not enough. I highly recommend her. She will do her best and get the job done. I’m happy to say she helped me win my case.
