Services Provided

Pamela, is extremely professional and of great assistance during this process for my family. She helped us through this entire process, made it extremely stress-free and kept us well informed throughout. I would highly recommend her services to anyone. She also was extremely military friendly and un...derstanding of our schedules when it came to deadlines etc.

My Experience

I hired Ms. Thompson to help me with a divorce. I was impressed after the free initial consultation and paid the $5K retainer. After I paid the retainer things changed. She was not responsive and it took her 4-5 days on average to answer questions and return phone calls. Additionally, when I calle...d her office, she was never there. I ended up paying $10K for temporary orders and had to hire another lawyer.

Glad I Met Her

I have been in and out of court trying to see my son over the years sith other lawyers who either did nothing or very little and gladly took my money for their mediocre service. I was referred to Mrs Thompson by a family member who was going through a custody battle. All I can say is that the moment ...I met her I felt that she was in my corner and would do her best to get my fatherly rights heard and given to me. First case was three years ago to get my visitation back due to moms interference. Second case was this year (2015) to get custody of my son. She has been nothing but upfront with me on what I'm doing right or wrong. So although she is my lawyer and services have to be paid I feel that I have gained a friend. I would recommend her to anyone in need of family law issues.

Thank God almighty, I'm free at last!

I will highly recommend you, Pamela and your staff to anyone needing assistance in family law. I am very pleased with how you handled my case. I was so worried about my family's future. You and your staff put my mind at ease and that alone was a difficult task. Your hard work and knowledge is muc...h appreciated. I respect that you were honest and very forthcoming with what to expect. I would not have had the same outcome without you. Thanks for being there and holding my hand during one of the toughest times in my life. I was in very good hands with you Pam. Take care and God Bless!

Divorce, Child Custody and Support

Pamela displays a wealth of knowledge when dealing with child custody, child support, and divorce cases. She was an incredible help to me while I was deployed overseas, always relaying information and updating me on the status of my case. She really does care about the military community.
