Foster parents in need

We were referred to Pam in our time of need. She is professional, knowledgeable and compassionate. Being a foster parent can be challenging, but having an attorney like Pam enables us to be assertive and diligent throughout this process. She has been heaven sent!

Foster Care Case

I got a referral to Pamela Tripp when I was in crisis and about to lose my foster son under very bad and unimaginable circumstances. I can really say that my baby would absolutely not be in my care right now if it were not due to the diligence, heart and connections of Pam. She always makes time fo...r my calls, emails and texts and is totally sensitive to my emotional state considering the sensitivity of our case. She keeps me updated consistently and values the idea of collaboration between her trusted team of colleagues. I have felt as though my heart was in her hands and they are very, very good hands.

Juvenile law lawyer | Apr 28

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Pamela is well versed in Juvenile Dependency law. In fact, I would go so far as to say that she is an expert. I have been privately retained to represent foster-adopt, aka, de facto parents, at the Edelman courthouse in Monterey Park, CA. Whenever I've had a question, I have consulted with Pam. She has always been there to respond to my questions, and she gets back to me in a timely manner. Pamala is very giving of herself and her time to her colleagues. Those are qualities one looks for in a lawyer. She is compassionate about her work and she is dedicated to her clients. She strives to get them the best possible result. I would not hesitate to recommend her to a foster parent, legal guardian, or any other party who is seeking representation in a juvenile dependency matter."

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I endorse this lawyer. I have worked on a few cases with Pamela, and I am very impressed with not only her professionalism, but also her charming personal manner. As an attorney, she is knowledgeable, conscientious, thorough, and attentive to detail. I heartily and without reservation endorse her for any matter for which she believes she is competent. Please be assured, however, that "competent" is certainly an understatement when it comes to Pamela Tripp."

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. Ms. Tripp is a very well rounded attorney. She is bright, efficient, reasonable, articulate, effective, personable and very capable. I have known her for many years and have immense respect for her as a professional and a person. Child Welfare and Adoptions practice are complex areas - many times for reasons beyond the legal issues at hand. She possesses a superior legal acumen but also a keen emotional intelligence. She is an excellent advocate."
