I am happy to endorse Amy as an excellent attorney. Being an attorney is often a very challenging and difficult career, I understand. Of course it will be all but impossible to get 100% positive feedback. What I can tell you is that I have had my share of challenges communicating and finding solutions through divorce and custody litigation which can often be frustrating and emotional. Amy represented me and gave a strong case to find solutions, was not offended by my challenging thoughts, provided encouragement, and worked well to craft an effective path forward. After meeting aggressive opposition I was given sound legal advice that led me to a path that was not a financial gain for her. I don't have an issue with how billing occurs. It is an industry standard I have found with most experiences in litigation which is sadly quite expensive or impossible for many families. I am grateful for her grace and professionalism that has resulted in hope and a potential win I felt she genuinely cared about in my experience. She will be most effective and fight for you or give you her best advice to move forward to secure a win or minimal damages. I hope you and your family keep faith, find peace, and some measure of success with Amy or whomever you decide. Thank you Amy!
she is a great lawyer has handled two legal matters for me both with great out comes always able to get in touch with here if i had any questions are needed advice couldn`t recommend her enough
I received a speeding ticket in north Mississippi and did a quick google search of attorneys that work on traffic tickets. I was from out of state living in Pennsylvania at the time. Paid her the money. Sent her the ticket. She had it thrown out. I have a CDL and really helped me out. Thanks
When my son was arrested for a fight in Oxford, MS, I didn't know where to turn since we are from out of state. I was referred to Amy by an attorney friend who resides in my home state and she immediately went to work for us. I was pleased with the level of communication and representation we received. Amy was able to have the charges dropped completely based on her understanding of the circumstances and the law. We were completely satisfied and would recommend Amy to anyone. THANKS Amy!
Amy gave me a lot of good information on my initial consultation. Right to the point, all my options laid out, all my questions answered. I gave her 5 stars, because there isnt 6.
Mrs Amy ,listen to me very well.She told me things I need to do .What we could do. Mrs Amy explained things in a way I understand everything .I would irecommend her to all my friends, family ,and even outlaw .If you want a good lawyer, very well dress,excellent English, she your girl! I want her to know I appreciate her time talking to Betsy Anne Davis. Thank you so much .
I am from Alabama, needed an attorney in Mississippi to help with a custody issue. After reading all the great reviews on Amy we decided to hire her. We definitely was not disappointed. She worked fast and did exactly what she told us she would do. She got us what we wanted. Highly recommend Amy. I feel confident she would fight for you regardless the case.
Ms. Pietrowski through litigation was able to completely dismiss my speeding ticket, leaving my traffic record clear and keeping my insurance rates at a minimum. I will be forever grateful.
She has excellent communication, she helps me understand what I am looking for in my case. She was straight to the point of the questions that I have asked. She also gives me a great strategy of step by step instructions.
We hired Amy for an ongoing custody contempt case after having another lawyer for 2 yrs. Amy did more in a few months due to covid limitations than our original attorney. Amy was available 24/7 and would text or email all updates of your case. Even while on vacation she worked on our case. She cares about her clients and whats best and works to get you what you want. Don't allow other lawyers with lower rates to reel you in. We can assure you Amy is worth every penny and we won plus attorney fees. We recommend amy for any legal advice and if she cant do it she will still give u some type of advice. We need more hardworking, veteran attorneys like her. Thank you
