"DO NOT hire this woman. She is A terrible lawyer and is very unprofessional with A bad attitude. She cares more about money than your actual case. She always threatened to quit my case over money even though she charging my card $1,000 every two weeks. She would even make unauthorized charges on my card without my knowledge and when confronted about it she would give me attitude. At times it seems like I was her only client and I was holding her business up with my case. The harassment over money by Ms Davis is very tacky. We had one court appearance and she came 45 minutes late, never apologized and did A horrible job representing me. She allowed the other attorney in the courtroom run circles around her. It seemed like it was her first court appearance. She DID NOT prepare me for court at all, she blindsided me with questions we never discussed before hand and allowed the court to coerce me to get my consent. I eventually fired her for cause of fraud and swindle, ineffective assistance and counsel. I paid her almost 30k for NOTHING. After I fired her and paid off my remaining balance she sent me A fraudulent invoice for $1, 300 and when I asked her what the invoice she had A very unprofessional response. I hired her because she was an independent black own business and in turn she lived up to EVERY negative stereotype about black owned businesses. This lady is A fraud, she will butter you up to lose big time in court. I represented myself for the last half of my case and yielded better results than she did. Everything she told me I would not be able to get from my divorce case I ended up getting representing myself. I am filing A grievance with the Bar and the Better Business Bureau. The review about the grandparents being swindled out of 4K is on par with my experience with Pawnee. DO NOT HIRE THIS WOMAN!!!!"

"Pawnee represented me most of 2023 in my separation/divorce case and she did a through job going through all of the details of my case and informing me about my options of settlement or going to trial. My only wish is that she would have pressed opposing counsel more on their lack of responsiveness. I would recommend her for anyone who is looking for legal support for divorce matters she did a great job!"
