She had left excellent records and no debts, but had a few assets to be properly transferred, so we started the legwork (paperwork) in early 2016 to deal with dissolving the estate. GVM was very willing to take on the remaining paperwork for an upfront fee of $5,000.00 plus a retainer of $2,500 toward "extras" which could occur unexpectedly during the coming months. Their contract was worded to suggest that the extra $2,500 may or may not be needed. (Naturally, my mind leaned toward hoping it would not be needed.) So we signed the contract and started with a payment to GVM of $7,500.00 as requested. In the period of April through October 2016, seemingly every interaction by their assigned attorney generated an "extra" billable charge to us. This quickly depleted the $2,500 reserve. We kept getting bills above and beyond the original estimate, even though there were no apparent obstacles during the processing of the Estate plan. I wondered what he was doing for his $5,000? Our total payments during the six months of involvement were $11,024.50, which seemed about 120% higher than the original $5,000 estimate. The processing of the Estate went quite smoothly, though the GVM attorney set aside our case from time to time and had to be reminded to finish. (Each phone call and each email response generated a new billable charge.) Document errors were minimal, maybe one or two corrections which needed to be called to their attention, and were taken care of promptly. After we had paid about $10K, I questioned our attorney about the excessive fees and why so many elements of his work for us were classified as "extras," rather than part of the big project itself. He essentially just responded with a quotation from the original contract, which allows them to bill the client for any extra time needed, such as dealing with emails and telephone calls. I realize that by signing their contract "as is," I had no grounds to fight it. Bottom line: Don't expect much for the initial fee; expect to pay a lot more by the time you finish.

Seemed like it would be a fairly simple procedure, and we were assured that it could be done in a timely manner, and with little headache to us. The retainer of $5,000 was given with the understanding that much of that money would most likely be returned. By May of 2016, the $5,000 had long been used up, and another $2,500 was being demanded by Gaw Van Male. With much grumbling, and protest, another check for the amount was provided. The fee of $395 per hour was adding up fast for such things as "reviewing strategy", and "researching rules?"...etc. By the time we had finished in July of 2016, the total amount of money paid was in excess of $14,000. Not only were they rude to my brother, and myself, in regard to our inquires about billing, at one point they seemed to be threatening legal action against us if we did not comply. I would NEVER recommend this firm to anyone. If I could give them a lower rating than one star, I would.

COOMBS AND DUNLAP: YOUR ADMINS ARE INCOMPETENT!…read more I have a very good case involving workplace retaliation at CVS Health. This happened after reporting an internal theft operation that involves hundreds of employees and customers. I first consulted with a Coombs and Dunlap Admin over 2 months ago, giving every personal detail about my case. The admin informed me at that time that every lawyer at Coombs and Dunlap was too busy to take my very good case against CBS Health, so I asked for letters of declination from each one of them, and she refused. I just went back today hoping things had changed but it only got worse. I asked the young admin if I could speak to a lawyer, and she said no because that is not the procedure. She said no one can ever speak to a lawyer there, only to the admins unless they are a client. I told her I want o be a client, and she said that they were all too busy to take my case. I then asked if I could get letters of declination from all of the lawyers too busy to take my case and she did not know what that was. Beings that this is a theft operation involving thousands of thieves, stealing from a major Corperation like CVS, this concerns me. Also, I have had my identity stolen, where an imposter pretended to be me, collecting damages that I suffered. So having an admin who doesn't even know what a letter of declination is knowing every single detail of my potential case, and then blocking me from access to every single attorney at Coombs and Dunlap leaves me very suspicious. I left letters today to every single lawyer at Coombs and Dunlap through the mail slot on Division street in Napa, requesting a letter of declination. We will see if they get them.
