good job guys

Pamela handled my matter quickly and efficiently. My relinquishment of parental rights was fully taken care of in less than a week.

Posted by Disappointed | June 09, 2013 | Divorce & Separation

Nice lady but I would not seek her services again.

Pamela is a nice person and appears to be knowledgable - in the beginning. This was my first divorce and really did not know what to expect during the process. I didn't have as much contact with her as I would have liked to. However, there was no problem in letting me know when additional fees were d...ue via mail. The biggest disappointment I experienced was when she billed me for the time she had to spend to educate my ex-spouse's attorney on how to calculate military retirement. To this day, I'm still not sure if she correctly calculated the amounts at all. She never consulted me about this until it was time to pay the bill. Unfortunately, I was so overwhelmed and exhausted with the process that I just gave in. To this day, I don't believe she represented me as well as she could have considering the circumstances. In fact, the ex walked off doing better due to her lack of commitment. Other than that, she's a nice lady.

awesome lawyer!

A great negotiator! She handled my divorce with strength and care, and we came out way ahead. I am glad to recommend Pamela Thompson as an attorney. She is a bear!

Oustanding Service

Mrs. Thompson was able to help me get a divorce during a time I thought was impossible. I highly recommend her because she deals a great deal with military divorces which helped me a great deal because I had no clue where to start. She was able to break it down to where I could understand each porti...on and respond accordingly. I highly recommend Mrs Thompson services you will not be disappointed. She doesn't sugarcoat anything and tells the truth like it should be told.
