On the Real Housewives of Atlanta, we've all seen the drama and antics of six women interacting both professionally and personally to make must-see TV. But Attorney Phaedra Parks is not your typical reality TV diva. She's been managing law partner at The Parks Group, P.C., for a decade, and has represented the likes of Bobby Brown, Jermaine Dupri and Ludacris, among others. The mother, entrepreneur, and litigator, was president of the Gate City Bar Association, and actively sits on boards for organizations including the American Bar Association and the University of Georgia. One can't have all of this under her (designer) belt without knowing a thing -- or three--- about networking. On the heels of last night's episode, we caught up with Parks for her quick and dirty quips on making quality connections. ---Janell Hazelwood

    Hello Phaedra,
    I absolutely love you the best on the show.
    You are naturally classy but at the same time I laugh in hystarics at the comments you make. You seem so relaxed even in the most stressful situations but you have such a funny side! I enjoy you the most because I believe you are the most sincere. Everything from letting Sherri off on your fees even though you we’re clearly in the right shows your good morals. I am a mother of 3 living in Canada, Ontario working as a waitress but you so inspire me. Thankyou.
    you have an awesome family. Your son is absolutely adorable and your husband a good man. I loved his speech in the Masons. He did so good. My father was a grandmaster of ceremonies in the Masons in Stoney Creek (Ontario)which touched a chord within me. You are awesome period and I love watching you on the show. All the best to you and your whole family.
    Debbie xoxo
