Professional and Compassionate

I hired Anna after getting a recommendation from a friend. She was very nice and helpful throughout the time she was my attorney. Mainly I hired her for a custody case. It was nice working with someone who is also a mom. It was comforting knowing that she would put herself in my shoes as a mom of sma...ll children. Anna was always very professional at all times, even when the other attorney was no so professional or nice. I would definitely recommend Anna and Prettyman Law as a custody/family law attorney.

Review

We initially hired her at a flat rate and paid CASH - however we realized quickly on that she was not fully reading or understanding our emails. There was one question directly asked of Anna, she never replied other than to ask for more documents - once those documents were provided she still never a...nswered the question. She asked for documents from a county that was completely uninvolved in this matter, but made it very apparent she either did not read, or did not understand the email which was sent. We never signed a retainer, never discussed or signed a fee agreement, never discussed or signed anything. We asked for our money back, and Ms. Prettyman obliged by making up an invoice showing that at least in one instance she was billing for printing and reviewing the same two documents twice, exploiting the flat rate we'd initially agreed to, then sending the remainder of the funds in two separate payments. Again, for the record, we paid in one single payment, cash up front.

VERY Pleased!

My experience with Anna could not have been more positive. She is intelligent, hard working, and aggressive. She helped me navigate through some child custody issues from a previous relationship. I appreciated her straight talk and calm demeanor. She quoted me a flat rate that was very fair. I'v...e worked with other attorneys that charged an hourly rate and felt like I was writing a blank check. I would definitely recommend her on your family law matter. Thanks Anna!

Messimore Child Support Modification

Anna worked with us through a very challenging child support modification. We have waited ten years to obtain some kind of victory and until Anna represented us that was not possible. We are very grateful for her expertise, professionalism, and willingness to work hard on our behalf.

not worth your time

Anna seemed like she was all about helping people resolve issues when we first met. After that she would rarely respond to phone calls and emails. She would be working on other people's cases while we were in court together. IE: writing out paperwork and not focusing on whats going on in front of h...er. She seemed to agree with the other party and let me get railroaded during a mediation and had no disregard for my feelings about being In the same room as my ex Since there was domestic abuse. Which there is a statue protecting my rights. I will never recommended her for any one or anything. I haven't been reimbursed the money she owes me either. I'm in a deep hole and could lose my child because of this woman! Please find someone reliable and worth your money! Please! I wouldn't even give her one star but I had too.
