Unprofessional

So my first review was posted on September 11 and underwent a five day review before it was approved and posted live on September 16. Seven days later, September 23 I receive an email saying my honest review was no longer approved. Hmm. Perhaps someone didn't like the honesty and complained? So, beca...use my personal experience with this particular attorney was so bad, it is worth the time out of my day to craft a new honest review in hopes that I can save someone else from experiencing the same pain, stress, burden, and financial waste I experienced. This is my honest review, based on my personal experience and opinions. Pamela is one of the most unprofessional (in my opinion) attorneys I've ever worked with. I have not yet submitted a grievance to the state bar ethics committee, but rest assured I will be doing so based on the pattern of overcharging for services not rendered. Instead of efficiently working on the case she wasted so much of my time and money soliciting feedback on how to better market her practice. The conversations were overly opinionated and she meddled in affairs unrelated to the case instead of sticking to the facts about the case itself. She talked all about her past with an abusive relationship and issues that followed (seriously? you're an attorney! leave your baggage at home) leading to legal advice that (in my opinion) had an axe to grind. Her "accounting" consists of Microsoft word listing her office's belief of what they feel are reasonable "billable conversations". They could not provide any factual basis (email or phone records) of alleged "conversations" leading to (what I perceive as) a few phantom line items to overcharge (including charging for the time she chit chatted about personal issues unrelated to the case). Rather than take time to collect all the facts her (in my opinion) impulsive, knee jerk responses to ongoing issues caused nothing but more issues and perpetuating turmoil with my ex. She knows how to make friends (a nice in person personality) which lead to me hiring her. In hindsight I should've recognized a friendly person from one that is well versed an experienced to handle high conflict litigation. If that's your situation, this is not the attorney for you.

GETS IT DONE!

I have worked with Pamela Miley on a couple of family law cases. She is very knowledgeable and expresses genuine care and concern for whatever her clients are going through. Her expert advice has been invaluable for me and my family. Any time I have a question or concern, she is quick to put me at... ease, knowing exactly what needs to be done to resolve any matter. When going through all the emotions involved with family law matters, she is relatable, compassionate and helpful. I recommend Pamela Miley without any reservation to my family and friends as I am confident she will treat them with the utmost respect and care for their well-being. Thank you Pam for all you have done to help our family!

Amazing Attorney

Pamela was referred to me by a friend that knew I needed a good divorse attorney to back me up. Pamela would even come to my store/office when she knew I was stressed, or needed a hug. Pamela would always find a way to lift my spirts when she knew I was stressed. She is an amazing lawyer expecially... for women that have been in an abusive or virbally abusive marriage. She also referred me to me through all the stress with emails and texts. Pam also referred me to Higher Hopes Councelors/Brandy Smith Licenced Therapist that help me lift my spirts through it all. I was truly blessed to have her as my attorney and highly recommend her if you are looking for someone that will be there to not just represent you, but to also see that you received all the help needed throughout the entire divorse process. I hope that this review helps someone that needs representation and support during a stressful period.

Exceptional legal assistance

Pamela's professional approach to family counsel provided me the essential aid I needed in bringing my divorce to a quick and favorable termination. She was masterful in handling all the adversities and obstacles associated with a divorce. I recommended her to two other acquaintances of mine and both... were very happy with their end result.

Hard-working, caring attorney

Pam was my divorce attorney three years ago when my son was less than a year old. She worked so hard to make sure everything was fair and well thought-through. She was patient and thorough as I wanted to take my time through the process, and gave smart advice regarding the best way to handle my (now)... ex-husband. A year later we were able to go back to Pam to amend our decree since we had a few changes in our lives and she helped make the process less painful. I know she really cared about us and did everything she could to make sure my son and I were well taken care of. I highly recommend Pam as a divorce attorney.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I strongly endorse this lawyer's work. Pam is a wonderful mediator and amicus attorney. She also brings these skills to the table when representing parents and those going through divorces as an advocate that understands the family dynamics and glue that holds things together in future interactions. I strongly recommend Pam, especially for matters involving children in their difficult pre-teen and teens years -- an area that she has a real knack for."
