Ms. Pierce IS THE BEST

I can't express enough how good my lawyer has been these last 10 months. I didn't know how I would get through this custody case, and GOD sent Paula Pierce to me through a friend. She listened and understood my needs and gave me direction when I didn't have the strength for it. Ms. Pierce is sma...rt, professional and a shark in the court room, which I learned today. She had my back and kept my now small family's needs first throughout this whole case. Thank you so much Ms. Pierce for being the best!! I have added her link if you want to contact her for your case, trust me you won't be disappointed.

Real estate single parent

I contacted Paula and explained my issue with her and within a month she handled what my last lawyer neglected. I walked away with a fair settlement however i was really in a bind when i met her. My child had disclosed some things that had me really angry, concerned, and terrified from worry. What... my child had disclosed were things going on at the other parents house. The other parent and I had been divorced for almost 2 years and it was ugly. I was willing to play fair until the safety was neglected and i ceased all visitation. Paula helped me identify and understand my reactions and she was able to talk to the emotional part me. My ex capitalized on my anger filed a family access plan, asked for money (2k), 90+ days of compensatory time, no child support and 50% custody. I walked away with no custody change, i gave 20 something days of time and child support was calculated properly. Unfortunately court is about money and my ex preferred i remain financially strapped and spend money on court. So the judge and my childs lawyer allowed us to drag this case out for a year. Family division, children's mercy and social workers were a part of this case. Yet it was considered a silent cry until i hired Paula. I know i cannot change the behavior of my narcissistic ex but having a lawyer that understands helped me get through it. I appreciate everything

Look no further, She is the BEST!

Last year my ex-husband tried to gain sole custody of my 4 children. I had a lawyer who did not fight for me or my children she just kept telling me I needed to do whatever they asked for. She was the type of lawyer who sat back and did not work and kept asking for more money. When my lawyer was let ...go from the case, Paula Pierce joined my case at the over midway part. She started working on my case before she put it into the courts that she was my new lawyer. She had no time to waste. My court date was coming up very soon. She gave me the confidence and hope I needed to make it through this ordeal. She talked to me regarding my case often. She had me do different things that was not ordered by the court just to make my case stronger. I did everything she asked. Any questions I had she was always there to respond to me. She worked so hard on my case you would never have known she had other clients as well. She does her homework and knows exactly what she is getting into and what’s she is talking about. She finds a way to make the outcome the best for her client. She was such a blessing in me and my children’s life. She got me the best outcome she could and I am so grateful. That was one of the toughest times in my life and she made it much easier to go through. She is an EXCELLENT Lawyer and I would recommend her to everyone I know.

Strong, Honest, Thorough, and Compassionate Friend

I called Paula after receiving unexpected news that my husband of 20 years had filed for a divorce. My husband informed me that he had filed for a divorce on the morning of our 20 year wedding anniversary. I didn't know what to do or who to talk to. My sister told me that I should call Paula Pierce ...and I am so glad that I did. Paula talked me off of the ledge and she was there every step of the way. Her knowledge and her Christian faith is what helped me make it through. Paula guided me with not only scriptures but knowledge of what to expect down this horrible journey. Paula definitely knows the law and she is also aware of relationships. Sometimes I thought that she was just as much a psychologist more so than a lawyer. She definitely has a calling when it comes to divorce, separation, child custody and family matters in general. Paula is the God Father of Divorce. She doesn't sugar coat anything. She is honest and kind. I am honored and blessed to call Paula my dearest friend for life. It's too bad that my marriage didn't work but I have a lifetime friend.

A Real Lawyer

I came to Paula, an emotional wreck after having a blow up with my ex and his gf at an event for my daughter. She was the 5th lawyer consultation and I knew she was a perfect fit! She listened to my situation and really got an understanding on what were the key issues. She is honest-she told me what ...were real expectations for a custody case she also told me things I needed to change instead of what I wanted hear. She understood our conflict and filed temporary orders on my behalf, which we won! She is truly amazing, she brought me hope and peace of mind, something I haven't felt in a while. I don't feel like I am just "another case" to her, she has a way of making you truly believe that everything will be okay. So far it is!! If in need of a honest lawyer who will give it to you raw, hire Paula. You will not be disappointed, I would refer her to anyone going through a child custody case, you will never feel alone.
