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. I received incorrect advice that I had only 20 days to respond to my divorce papers which was false. I was told by another firm, Cavanagh tha...t there was no clock ticking because they had only been filed and not legally served. I felt pressured to sign a contract and paid the $2500 retainer fee. While I was signing the contract I mentioned that maybe I should be reading this and my attorney, Jennifer stated, "we will give you copies to take home and read". My own attorney did not advise me to read this before I signed even though I expressed my concerns. I called 24 hours later and said I had acted too hastely and wanted more time to think it over. My lawyer stated she had drafted a letter to my husband and did I want to review it, at least, by email. She did not say she would charge me for this which she did. The letter had several misspellings which looked very unprofessional. So I said I did not wish to continue and she offered me a less expensive counsel where she would review paperwork but not accompany me to court. Jennifer never once let me out of the contract on the spot and instead said Jessica would call me to discuss my options. After several phone calls to Jessica who was always out or unavailable and many messages left, Jessica never ever returned my calls. After almost 2 weeks I called and by chance Jessica answered the phone and said she was busy moving and would get back to me. A day or so later I received an email stating it would take 60 days to resolve getting my fees together to make the appropriate credit to my $2500 retainer fee. After an email to DeShon I received a bill for over $500 (1/5 of my retainer fee) for basically draftings a letter with misspellings. I feel like I've been put through the ringer by a law firm who was suppose to represent me in a fair manner. I would gladly pay a reasonable fee but this is totally unfair. Please beware of DeShon Pullen Law Firm. They treated me without respect and gave me more stress in an already vulunerable stage of my life. They have been unresponsive to my pleas to get this resolved in a reasonable and fair manner. I regret ever having walked through their doors.

I'm a lawyer, but I am not a "family lawyer." I needed help. I looked carefully and was pleased to find DeShon. She is simply one of the best family lawyers around. She's smart, thorough and efficient. She gets to the heart of the matter quickly and is bolstered by her experience and professio...nal judgment. Honestly, if you need someone in this area, DeShon should be your first and last call.

My case was originally a criminal case and Deshon Pullen brought it down to a civil case, she was very helpful and always kept me updated of what was going on with the case, she understood my situation and always was very positive on the outcome, even when other lawyers said that she would never brin...g my case to a civil level.

DeShon Pullen represented me in a 9 month custody, parenting time, and child support case (post-decree) that resulted in an all day trial before Honorable Edward Bassett. DeShon did an amazing job representing me during the months leading up to my trial, attempting to settle my case, as well as tria...l itself. As a result of her represention of my case, I not only won my court case, but received a $7,000 attorney fee award from the opposing party. DeShon demonstrated expert level knowlege in family law throughout my case. Excellent job Deshon. I could not have done it without you!

Ms Pullen was so helpful in both estate and wrongful death actions. Her gentleness and knowledge were so appreciated and effective. The pleasant surprise came when an agressive stance was required. She became a true fighter, at times it felt as though it was her own battle and she went on to win t...he victory. I will always be grateful and continue to recommend her to anyone seeking a strong legal defense.
