Client Testimonials
Pamela A. Dougherty measures results in terms of “best resolutions” she achieves for her clients, whether by negotiating an outright dismissal or downgrade of initial charges, or structuring a reasonable plea agreement with minimal penalties.
It is gratifying to receive letters from clients expressing their satisfaction and appreciation for the guidance and support received throughout their representation.
Here are a few
examples:
- “Pam- Thank
you so much for all
your support and
legal guidance over
the last few years.
I truly don’t know
what I would have
done without your
help. Just thinking
back to the first
day I came to your
office in tears… and
you were so helpful
getting me through
what has so far been
one of the hardest
times in my life.”

offenses, after the
matter was resolved and
an expungement granted
- "Dear Pam –
Words cannot express
the depth of our
gratitude. Thank you
firstly for your
kindness, wisdom and
professionalism.
Thank you for having
the insight to see
the same hope in our
son that we hang on
to as we travel this
difficult journey.
We wanted you to
know what a
difference you have
made in our life."
Parents of a
juvenile client
charged with 1st and 2nd
degree offenses
- “Pam- Thank you very much for all the kindness you extended to our family, in particular to our sister. Although she will never know of nor understand your care for her, my family is ever grateful. Clearly you are a talented lawyer, but even more impressive are your interpersonal skills and compassion…”
