Pamela Pearson wont let you down.

I have been married 3 times went threw 4 custody battles (North and South Carolina) spent enough money on LAWYERS to buy a small island in the USVI> With that being said I hired Pamela Pearson 5 years ago for a separation agreement (didn't go threw with it) walked back into her office just a months a...go and told her I wanted divorce. I chickened out again with the divorce and asked for my money back and she refunded me my money .Pamela Pearson didn't have to do that (the contract states NO REFUNDS !Pamela was highly recommended to me and I now know why . I hope I never need to hire another attorney but If I do I'll call Pamela because in all my battles I have had with walking out of a court room thinking I just got screwed by another lawyer that is not the case with her. As Pamela came Highly recommended to me I highly recommend her to anyone North or South Carolina. I hope this review helps you with who you hire for your next lawyer. M. Hawkins S.C.

I used Ms. Pearson for a custody case. Going in I didn't think I had much of a chance . She was very thorough, and in spite of the odds against me, I was awarded full custody of my child. I am glad I hired her and would recommend her If asked.

Keeping Custody of my 14 year old daughter

I hired Pam Pearson at the last minute at the recomendation of a friend who had used her. She did an excellent job in such a short time to prepare. I have used 8 attorneys previously in the last 12 years in court against my ex wife. All were not up to par and did not do a good job. Pam did an excelle...nt job and won my case. My ex wife was trying to get custody back because she was having to pay child support. Pam Pearson was professional, informed, smart, kept me informed and best of all she won my case.

Worst Lawyer I have ever hired!!!!

Worst communication I have ever received (next to none), I had to call to get information and then it took two weeks to get a response. She was rude, disrespectful and cut me off when I was trying to say something. She discussed personal client information with other lawyers especially my wifes law...yer! She was late to the first hearing and didn't bother showing up for the last hearing (which she didn't even inform me of, so the case was dismissed without me even knowing it) after telling my wifes lawyer that she would not show up because I owed her money (btw she was paid in full plus a 3k retainer). She has no ethics, no values other than the amount of money she can get out of her clients, and no morals that I can see based on my experience with her. I dont know how these other reviewers gave her such high ratings but this is definitely not the lawyer I hired. She did less than nothing that I asked her to do and billed me for things she didnt do that I even pointed out wasnt done. She gave me the excuse that something is wrong with her email. Funny thing is I received emails about my wifes lawyers request for information. If you need a lawyer and you have other options go with the others just as caution. I encourage others that had bad experiences with her to file complaints with the SC bar, I understand SC is very strict with attorneys especially when it comes to ethics.

Help in the time of TROUBLE!

Let me start off by saying I think of lawyers much like I do car salesmen, avoid them at all cost. When I walked into Pam Pearson's office I was terrified due to the scare tactics my ex-husband used to convince me that he was going to take our children. Pam, after hearing my case, assured me this w...ould not happen. Pam was very laid back in explaining the laws and what was to be expected. Initially this scared me because I wanted her to be as much of a basket case as I was. Ultimately, she not only knew what she was talking about, she was right every time we went to court. Pam's confidence and knowledge were a winning pair. She knew my financial situation was less than desirable and she worked with me as we went through the process. She had plenty of opportunity to look down on my situation but she never did. She was so calm about everything which in turn calmed me as well. She knew the state laws and confirmed every step of the way what the next step would be. While I hired her for her services and expertise, I quickly learned that she'd been to the rodeo a time or two and was well prepared to help me and that is exactly what she did! Now my children and I are satisfied with the outcome as I could not have asked for much more. Pam Thank you, Thank you. Thank you!
