Amazing service

Pamela is an amazing attorney! During a difficult time in my life, she helped me navigate it. She was always available via text to ask questions or if I had concerns. She always looked out for my best interest. In addition, she gave me a fair price for her services. I would definitely recommend her t...o others.

Amazing Attorney! Guardianship Case

Attorney Sossi is a blessing to my family. If you need someone to fight for you and your loved ones, she is definitely the lawyer for you. She took on the guardianship case for my dad and although it seemed like everything was stacked against us, we prevailed. She always kept me updated. If I had an...y problems or questions she was easy to reach out to. Attorney Sossi also responded quickly to emails and calls. She was always prompt and on time. The knowledge, passion, and determination she has made me extremely fortunate that I hired her to be my lawyer. Thank you Attorney Sossi!

Many Thanks from the Griffey Family

Attorney Sossi was a true blessing to our family. She was thorough, strategic, compassionate, and BATTLE READY! When I say she went to bat for us, she knocked it out of the park. There were many people working against us but in the end, we prevailed through her hard work and diligence. Thank you ...Attorney Sossi for making a real difference for our family!

Unprofessional and Unhelpful

I scheduled a free consultation with Ms. Sossi last month on a landlord-tenant case I am part of. I explained that I was the tenant, asking for our full security deposit back (my landlord took nearly the entire $4,200 for bogus charges). Ms. Sossi informed me that I was unlikely to get back the full ...amount (I knew this already), but then proceeded to tell me that if I did not hire a lawyer I was likely to be wrapped up in litigation by my landlord for months. She then offered to represent me for $300/hr for a minimum of 10 hours. This would mean she would take $3,000 of my money, representing the vast majority of any winnings I would get from my landlord. I informed her that I wasn't looking for representation, just wanted to use our free consultation to ask some questions about court procedures and how best to file documents. She dodged my questions and cut our conversation short when it became clear that she was not interested in actually helping me and just wanted to represent me for a huge amount of money. If you're looking for helpful free consultations on low-level cases, I would recommend contacting free legal aid clinics or the Wayne County Mediator's Center.

Compassionate and caring attorney

I need a lawyer for a custody battle I was in with my ex. I found Pamela and from the get go she was very helpful and passionate about my case. She went above and beyond her call of duty several times. I never had a problem getting a hold of her when I needed her, some of the advice she gave me I use... daily in my life. I would say Pamela Sossi, hands down every time someone asked me if I had an attorney I would recommend. My case lasted for about a year and in the end she got me the result I was searching for. Thank you Pamela!!!!
