Honest & Dependable Attorney

Ms. Bettis handled my child custody case and did an excellent job! She is very prompt in responding and staying on top of everything involved with the case. She also was brutally honest with me thru out the entire process. Ms. Bettis is very compassionate and cares about her clients and wants the m...ost positive outcome for everyone. If you are looking for a great attorney that will get the job done then pick Pam Bettis!

Compassionate

I would recommend anyone to Pam Bettis that needs a compassionate honest attorney. She provided my family with the best advice even if it wasn't always what we wanted to hear. She always responded in a timely manner and when we needed her she reacted quickly. What I loved most about Pam was her co...mpassion for my son and the way she encouraged him and lifted up him throughout his entire ordeal. She believed in him and that means everything. Her legal assistant Kelly was also on top of her game and made me feel like I was important when I had a question.

Family lawyer | Jun 04

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Pam is an amazing lawyer. She and I have been co-counsel on numerous criminal cases, not only is she brilliant, but she truly cares about her clients. I do not handle family law cases, so I refer those cases to Pam and her law partner on a daily basis. I know my clients are getting the best possible care if Pam is their lawyer."

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I endorse Ms. Bettis, wholeheartedly. She is an excellent trial attorney who works tirelessly on behalf of her clients. She works cases to discovery all the relevant information, and uses that to the client's benefit; while, at the same time, being upfront and honest with her clients, other attorneys, and the court(s). There's not a better criminal defense attorney on Atlanta's southside."
