Do Not Recommend!!

Pamela was my divorce attorney. She is by the far the nastiest human being I ever met. she is just as mean to her own clients as she is the other party involved. My friend used her also and had a horrible experience. While my friend was making payments to her religiously every month she got a knock ...on the door one day that her own attorney was taking her to small claims court. pam stating she was tired of taking monthly payments.

Reprimand issued in IA, 2012
