Lita Annette Pettusdotson

I can't begin to express our gratitude to Attorney Pettus-Dotson and really convey in words what she has accomplished for me and my family. It was a difficult case because we had decided to take my son and his wife to court to obtain guardianship for my grandson. It wasn't that my son or his wife was... mistreating or abusing my grandson but we had been providing for him since he was born. And we needed to be in a legal guardianship role in order to continue to do what we had been doing for him all of his life. Attorney Pettus-Dotson is extremely professional and transparent. She explained our rights as grandparents and the rights of my grandson and his parents. It was a trying time. She always keep us up to date on hearings and the next moves that were necessary. She encouraged meditation. We were finally granted legal guardianship! It was a long process however Attorney Pettus-Dotson made it much easier to manage. I appreciate her guidance. Attorney Pettus-Dotson is really a great lawyer simply because she tells you what may happen and the possible scenarios that you may encounter. It's wasn't easy being in this difficult place and time but Attorney Pettus-Dotson made it less intimidating.

I gave her a two star beacause at least she took a few minutes on the phone and voiced her knowledge of the topic. However I eventually, followed up with my call before i actually spoke with her the call was about a quick 5-10 minutes and from reading her reviews i thought I'd give her a call they ...were so positive. Well, she was very short with me gave me the impression that she didn't want to be bothered with my case and was very discouraging, to me told me I had very little chance of winning even though i didnt get a chance to tell her my reason for relocating with my child. Then she listed a few silly reasons why parents relocate that are not in the best in the best interest of the child as though i have no knowledge of my case and as thought that those were my reason. I was very hurt and shocked at the type response I received from Lita. She was not patient with me nor did she give me free consultation like i read on her other reviews. She told me she charge $325 for a consultation..wow some attorneys will at least give a 30 minute free consulation and will ask you about your case but Lita didnt ask me hardly anything was basically busy all week but may have a slot or two available if i want to keep come to her office. Bottom line I didnt feel like she gave a damn but consultation money let alone cared about assisting me. i personally didnt have good experience like everyone else said they did....she basically brushed me off and in so many words told me its not worth it you wont win.

I required insight into my current legal approach with outside counsel to determine if we are on the right track (second opinion). Lita was kind enough to expend significant time with me via phone to explain how the system works and the best way to manage the process with my attorney. This was very h...elpful since it restored confidence for my current legal team.

Lita was the answer to a prayer. She is very knowledgeable of all forms and filings that I needed to complete. Very responsive to all calls ,emails , texts and very reliable. My case began in June of 2012 , I received my judgement on May 3, 2013. The cutbacks to the courts have made things very... frustrating at times , but Lita kept me encouraged and supported me thru it all. God bless you Lita

Lita is turning around my case after some gross mis management by my former lawyer. Lita exhibits experience, knowledge, analytical ability and communication. I feel that she is interested in my case and listens to me an my families needs. She has a good understanding of technolgy which assists ...in succinct and timely communication. I have spoken highly of Lita to my friends and colleagues
