Megan Pettis was the associate "representing me" if you can call it that. Megan not only could…read morenever even try to relate to me on a personal level, but was flat out cold toward me through this very difficult process. Multiple times, she said one thing and then switched her stance as soon as the opposing counsel brought it up. She ARGUED against me, her client, in mediation alongside the mediator. We were in this custody battle because my ex-husband showed up to coach my sons baseball team drunk, got kicked off the coaching staff, got a DUI while trying to pick our son up at my house and tested off the charts for illegal narcotics. Somehow, he walked out of mediation with more parenting time and decision making over baseball. Megan Pettis did not advocate for me in the slightest during one part of this process including mediation. I felt completely bullied by her and the mediator and forced to agree to things I did not believe were best for my son (through tears and distress).

Would highly recommend against hiring this firm. My lawyer (Will Davis) was hard to reach most of…read morethe time and generally unresponsive. I (we) were completely unprepared for mediation. I spent hours coming up with a plan for three types of outcomes. I emailed them to my attorney at N&S with absolutely no response. I was totally blindsided during mediation with MY lawyer siding with my ex-wife's attorney! He actually took the Zoom call from his home, explaining that he was leaving for vacation after the call and could not show up in person. We got waxed by my ex-wife's attorney with Will and the mediator even putting pressure on me to give up way more than I needed to. I am thoroughly and completely disappointed with my representation from this firm who clearly "mailed it in". Do your homework. You can get good counsel for half of what this firm charges. Attorneys have a poor reputation for a reason. This one is well deserved.

PAY ATTENTION TO THE NEGATIVE REVIEWS OF ELAINE LEVINE TO SAVE YOURSELF ANGUISH, TIME AND MONEY…read more Please take the time to read this to save yourself from needing to pay again for a different attorney. As a doctor speaking, I rarely give negative reviews to other professionals. In researching an attorney to prepare our wills and trusts, I did read the one negative review for this attorney prior to hiring her and brushed it over. It ended up being a perfect synopsis of our time with Elaine. (Most positive reviews for this firm are for her partner, whom we never met). Let me explain our circumstances. We hired Elaine Levine to prepare trusts and wills for out family. Initially, Elaine was courteous and did exactly what she said she would do. She was friendly, supportive and very easy to reach. She responded well to our numerous questions in a timely and efficient/effective manner. UNTIL she wasn't present for the final signing and we were rushed through the process. Witnesses were present and signed each document PRIOR to any reviews or signatures on our part as they were "in a hurry". We raised objections but they were quickly dismissed. We asked for detailed explainations of each document we were signing and felt very rushed. The final wills were never presented for review. We were told by the person filling in (?who she was, she introduced herself once but we never got a clear understanding, ? think she was some kind of assistant) near the conclusion of the meeting that she was in a hurry and needed to go to pick up her kids! Elaine was sick, but had been sick over a week. The practice clearly had time to notify us to reschedule. All for naught; we wasted $3,500 on USELESS wills and trusts that need to be redone by a special needs attorney for our son's special needs trust. Elaine was very well aware that we needed a special needs trust from the beginning and she (copiously) informed us she was NOT a special needs attorney. However, we had no idea of the implications of this (special needs attorney should always be seen FIRST to avoid wasting your time and money). We felt abandoned after our final meeting and then the relationship with Elaine turned hostile when we confronted her with the situation regarding her having to have KNOWN that the special needs trusts need to be done FIRST. Despite our reaching out regarding changes of beneficiaries not going througg and a request to review a brief 2 paragraph letter to family explaining what the documents were, we were rudely rebuffed by Elaine that her services had been concluded. The percentages of distribution to our non-special needs children in the conduit trust was INCORRECT. When we tried to rectify this, we were told in no uncertain terms that our relationship was now "concluded" (ie, payment had been received, I assume) - leaving us with INCORRECT, useless documents. Would definately NOT RECOMMEND Elaine Levine!!!! I should add that a while after everything was completed (we thought), an associate in her office reviewed our file and reached out to say a part of the paperwork was never received. This paperwork was mailed to us and when I called back for further instructions, Elaine got one the phone and was exceptionally rude, stating that since she read my review on line and knew how I felt about her, she wouldn't be helping us any longer and that we could just keep the unsigned paperwork her office sent. She made it clear that she had NO INTENTION of completing our file. She made sure all communication thereafter was terminated. HORRIBLE PROFESSIONALISM!!!!!!! What a waste of time and money!!!! Sickening.

They were compassionate and always friendly and professional. They kept me updated on my case and went above and beyond. I have nothing but praise for them. They were truly amazing and did everything they could to assist me.

I recently had the misfortune of working with CHISOLM…read moreTRIMBLE & ASSOCIATES, LLC. and I have to say, the experience was nothing short of terrible. From start to finish, the service was abysmal and I would strongly caution anyone considering hiring this firm to think twice. First of all, communication was a major issue. I found it extremely difficult to get ahold of my assigned attorney and when I did, they seemed disinterested and unengaged. I continually had to follow up with them myself to get updates on my case, and when I did finally speak to their clerks, it was clear they hadn't even read my file or were not informed of the specifics of my situation. Secondly, the billing process was a complete mess. I received multiple different invoices with different amounts and descriptions of services provided. When I tried to discuss this with the accounting department, I was met with rudeness and impatience. It felt like they were just trying to squeeze as much money out of me as possible without providing any clear explanation for the charges. I have to find another law firm to sort out the mess that this firm allowed and by mess, I mean the drawn up paperwork makes no sense and is completely incorrect. I signed at the suggestion of the lawyer, realizing now that their service was a waste of time and money. They provided nothing, honestly. Charging repeatedly for paperwork and information that they never used. My case never went to the trial that I thought I was paying for. I paid trial fees for a lawyer to speak to me twice over the course of a year. She was ill or unavailable the rest of the time. Blatant liars and will threaten to drop you and keep your money if you complain, because they need the "trust" of the client. Don't trust them to do right by you. They're money hungry. Overall, my experience with CHISOLM TRIMBLE & ASSOCIATES, LLC. was incredibly disappointing. I would not recommend this firm to anyone looking for professional and reliable legal services. The lack of communication, uninterested attorneys, and confusing billing practices make this firm one to avoid at all costs. Editing because it hurts to think about how they handled my case. Terrible business practices. DO NOT RETAIN THEM!

The team at Estate Attorneys of Atlanta holds a special place in my heart for many reasons. A few…read moreyears ago, my father reached out to them for estate planning after being unable to connect with a previous attorney. From the very beginning, Attorney DeBarr-Johnson and her team handled his needs with professionalism, care, and empathy. It was important to my father--an old-school, analog kind of man--that he work with a team that could meet him where he was. The Estate Attorneys of Atlanta did just that. They not only provided expert legal support but took the time for the little things that mattered--like walking down to help him navigate paying for parking on his phone. In a world that can often feel digitally overwhelming, these small acts made a big difference. Their kindness and patience left a lasting impression on both of us. As my father's health declined at the end of 2024, I reached out again--this time for urgent assistance. Not only did the team step in immediately, but they also visited us personally to ensure every legal need was addressed quickly and compassionately. That meant the world to both of us. My father's biggest wish was that his affairs be handled in a way that wouldn't become a burden to me. Because of this team, that wish is being honored. Following his passing in February 2025, I've entrusted Estate Attorneys of Atlanta to carry out his final wishes--and I am so grateful for the continued support. Thank you, Attorney DeBarr-Johnson and team, for your unwavering care throughout the years. You will truly be in good hands here.

PLEASE SAVE YOURSELF! DON'T HIRE THEM, TURN AND RUN NOW!…read more This has been by far the worst possible experience you could have with hiring an attorney. The basics: she's late for everything and anything, she'll keep you waiting a minimum of an hour each meeting. Tamarra stretched this whole thing out for over a year plus (mind you she never finished the job) while feeding us bullshit excuses she thought a brain damaged handicapped man and his overwhelmed elderly mother trustee would buy along with dog shit quality client deliverables, first year law students can't be this fucking low quality. For real, her work dog shit, she gave us a final copy of the trusts with errors and someone else's name not mine, then lied saying it was an original document when we know damn well you plug and chugged into a template after that. The living will was all kinds of screwed up and barely resembled the things I said in the meeting about what I wanted, 50% was the wrong information! The office is also full of incompetent idiots. They don't know how to mail anything...like they can't figure out how to do postage so it required us to pay the difference that we had to Hound her about getting back. Her office manager doesn't know how the mail works either, the whole place struggles with it all and can't figure out how to write checks and lie to us using the cliché "check's in the mail!" excuse without ever giving the tracking number until we got real angry. Do yourself a favor and run like the plague from this firm, I can't believe this place is in business and Tamarra hasn't been disbarred for this kind of level of incompetence.

Distraught and totally lost a dear friend said Stephen and his people could help. I immediately reached out, got a fast response and began the paperwork. I had a ton of questions about what to do and how to do it. For most all my questions, I was told I'd have to call someone or it was left unanswered. The probate part ended up being the only part actually started by the group and that I didn't have to seek other legal help with. More expense on top of paying for a car and huge house that are in the estate was most unwelcome. The "6 weeks or less" has long since passed for the only thing I need from this particular group. All the "assurances from the attorney or anyone else I've dealt with there have passed. I can't get anyone to respond to me anymore, nor can the person who recommended him. The 100% cessation of communication and lack of help with anything but starting (but not finishing) Letters of Administration has forced us to seek help from other attorneys and the bar association. Recommendations from friends can be great, especially in a very difficult time, but definitely should of read reviews and done some research first. Lesson learned, and still don't have the document I've paid a lot for.

As a branding agent, I wanted to provide my client with the services he deserved-given that this would be his first big endeavor in this area. After my initial contact, Attorney Funderburg immediately responded to my email and within seconds, we arranged a 15 mins phone conference to discuss my client's needs and ways in which she would be able to assist. Our business officially started on September 18 and less than a month later, we had a registered business and a registered agent-Attorney Funderburg- who readily made herself available to answer all business inquires and calls-even while on vacation. This past week, my client and I sat down with Attorney Funderburg for a meeting, beyond the standard email and phone conversations, and let's just say that her warmth, attention to details, drive, commitment, and compassion for clients showed from her greeting to the very end of the face-to-face meeting. On behalf of my client and I, we highly recommend the services offered by Attorney Funderburg, to any small business owner desiring quality service and attention to your startup needs.
