STAY AWAY IF YOU DON'T WANT TO LOSE YOUR SURROGATE. It appears communication is not at the top of their list. Me and my wife hired Milan Phan to complete our Surrogacy agreement with our surrogate. Because of their lack of urgency we may have lost our surrogate. They have been working on it for 3 months, an agreement that we already had completed. Meaning they didn't need to negotiate anything. When I reached out to them to get guidance on things, they actually thought I had my own attorney. Something we never expressed and find extremely weird to be honest. Regardless, we cleared that matter up and I have now called 3 times to request a call back from our attorney over a 10 day mark with NO response. My next step is contacting the North Carolina Bar and reporting them for lack of communication. Something an attorney can lose their license for. I just find it crazy that I have to threaten that to get a response from our attorney.

Through a separation, divorce and new estate planning documents, I received primo legal services with a personal touch that made the difficult journey so much easier to navigate. Milan Pham, Meredith Nicholson and their staff feel like family to me. I give them my highest recommendation.

Milan's wisdom, insights, and calm demeanor helped my partner and I feel confident and knowledgeable in navigating a new and tough process. She listened to our concerns and answered all of our questions thoroughly. We're so grateful to now have this trusted relationship for any future legal matters.

My partner and I reached out to Attorney Pham on a recommendation from a friend. We'd never worked with a lawyer before and we needed assistance with a domestic partnership agreement related to our new home and lives together as an unmarried couple. Milan was absolutely fantastic. She knew exactly how to approach our concerns and the agreement's key points in a way that left us feeling empowered to have what were sometimes tricky or hard conversations. Milan made sure that we knew and understood the legal implications of our decisions or potential decisions at all times, which is important when drafting such a document. We were given the time to think through our wishes and have conversations outside of her office as a couple, and she allowed us to propose our own alternate solutions and language when the "standard" language didn't quite fit. Working with Milan was a collaborative experience and we felt we were in good hands with her extensive experience and wisdom every step of the way. Our legal agreement and the process of creating it now feel like a milestone in our relationship and we are very proud of what we were able to accomplish with Milan's guidance and expertise. I'd recommend her to anyone who needs assistance with family law.

My partner and I were very pleased with Milan's work as the North Carolina attorney responsible for our son's adoption. We chose Milan and NicholsonPham because of their well-known work within the LGBT community, their close relationship with Sharon Thompson who is a member of the American Academy of Adoption Attorneys, and glowing recommendations from several friends. Milan was a pleasure to work with. She was very responsive to our questions and concerns. She was concise and clear in her communications both with us and other legal professionals involved in our case. The firm's billing process was transparent and detailed, providing us with a clear view of the services received. Our son's adoption decree was recently issued and we plan to continue our relationship with Milan and Meredith, her law partner, for our future legal needs.

Attorny Pham handled my rather delicate inter-personal legal issue with understanding, but also with a noticable touch of human kindness and consideration for both of us involved. I believe that it was her negotiation and fine inter-personal skills that helped quickly resolved the issue in a manner agreeable to both of us (we both signed and we are now done.) Great working with you, and I appreciate an individual who can read not only written words and listen to people talk, but also can tune in on non-verbal clues, and tone of voice clues, as Attorney Pham had to do in order to get my now -ex to agree to our separation agreement. Plus the agreement was just not all about me and my rights, she also included my -ex in many clauses protecting him from future claims, etc. which I had not requested, but I am also not a selfish man, so I said, "wow, she is good." I'd recommend her to you as someone how not only knows the law, but also other local lawyers and the court systems of both Durham and Wake Counties (more than those two I'm sure), but I lived in Wake County, and she was very familiar with how the courts and judges work up here. Thank you Milan.

I was referred to Attorney Pham by a close friend and I was not disappointed. She was personable, knowledgeable, honest and kept me updated all along the legal way of my case. This was the first time I needed legal expertise and I was pretty skeptical of all lawyers in general prior to ever really needing one; however Attorney Pham quickly displaced my skepticism and replaced it with a kind and trustworthy affirmation that good lawyers really do exist! From our first meeting she explained the legal process involved in my case, described the possible work and length of time she would be billing me for and updated me at every point necessary throughout the legal process. We were able to settle my case within the best of possible circumstances and in a timely manner. Overall, I was impressed with her candid advice and her approachability, and I will consider her in the near future for the personal legal needs of me and my family.

Everyone I interacted with at this firm was courteous and helpful. They clearly explained my legal situation and resolved my ticket very satisfactorily.

Milan Pham recently represented me in a family law case in Wake County. I found her to be a true professional throughout the entire process, both in and out of court. She was knowledgeable about the law, listened attentively to the facts of my situation, took time to answer my questions and prepare me for court, and represented me successfully. In court, she was thoroughly prepared, effectively examined and cross examined witnesses, introduced evidence, relentlessly built my case with facts, evidence, and legal precedents. In spite of the pressure of the case, I felt reassured and optimistic because Ms. Pham had prepared herself and me so well. And in the end, certainly because of the facts, but also due to Ms. Pham's dedication, preparation, and presentation, the judgment was in my favor. I would wholeheartedly recommend Milan Pham as an attorney to anyone needing the best legal representation.

MIlan recently represented me for the sale of my part of a small business. She (as well as her entire office) was extremely professional, knowledgeable & helpful. She was always patiently willing to explain legal issues or concepts that were new to me and was very communicative. With Milan I really felt like I had an advocate.

Ms Pham did an exceptional job. She was very knowledgeable but when new issues arose she researched them very thoroughly. She also went far above and beyond the usual call of duty - even driving all the way to Charlotte to pick up paperwork for us so that it could be submitted to court by the deadline. I am sure that there aren't many lawyers who would do that.

I was very impressed with Ms. Pham when she made the effort to discover what outcome I really wanted in my legal dispute. I felt as if I had regained control in a situation that was out of my control. She presented all the information and options and let me choose what I was most comfortable with to act on.
