About DeShon
Biography
In addition to running my law practice I have 2 children at home who keep me busy and constantly entertained in my time away from the office. I am always learning new lessons from my children and find that there is nothing more humbling or any higher honor than being a parent. We make the most of short weekend trips, evenings together, going to museums, the zoo and other family friendly events.

Advised Me To Not Attend A Hearing

The other party (mother) filed an Order of Protection, unbeknownst to me, which evicted me from my house and prohibited me from having contact with my 2 yr old daughter.

Very disappointed
I had a terrible experience recently with DeShon Pullen. During the most stressful period of my life, I went in for a free consultation regarding a divorce.

Replied last August 06, 2012We are sorry for the experience you had during your consultation at our office. It is always our intention to provide detailed and accurate information to our clients and prospective clients. As noted in our consultation agreement, we do not give legal advice during a consultation as often times sufficient information is not available to provide. We strive to assist our clients and potential clients during a time we understand is especially difficult. We do provide our potential clients with a consultation agreement prior to our meeting and always intend to allow sufficient time to review any fee agreement should they choose to retain. We apologize if this experience did not meet this expectation. We wish you the best. ~ DeShon Pullen & Associates
