Stephanie guided us through the trust and estate planning process with exceptional care, providing thoughtful, detailed answers to every question we had along the way. She was not only knowledgeable and professional, but also incredibly personable and relatable--qualities that made what could have felt like a daunting process both comfortable and reassuring. Everyone we interacted with at the firm was kind, attentive, and genuinely invested in helping our family create a plan that serves us well for years to come. We left the experience feeling confident, informed, and truly supported. It's rare to find a partner who combines such deep expertise with warmth and approachability, but Stephanie and the Thrift McLemore team do exactly that. We could not recommend them more highly!

I have also interviewed and had meetings with several in the Canton / Alpharetta Georgia area. I can easily tell which attorneys have a line of 'BS" vs those who are honest, willing to help and offer solid advice. Without a doubt Ms Sara White is a true rare find. She and her office replied almost immediately to our requests. It was followed up with reminder emails. Once my wife and I met Ms White in person it was a good meeting taking care of some estate legal matters. Everything was well organized and the meet went flawlessly. She also took the time to look at a document that was deficient in a writing several years prior. Immediately we had her redo the important documents and set up an additional meeting. Without a doubt.. you do your homework , but do not be fooled by these high cost estate attorneys who want a crazy amount of money for the services and almost scare one into what they are selling. For us we did our homework. Some would not even discuss the fairly new 'Transfer of Death Deeds" and were they even knowledgeable about it, probably because it did not bring them thousands of dollars into the law firms business. We "highly" recommend Ms White for her honest services at a reasonable price! We assure you we have tried others but they dont come close to what she offers her clients. A breath of fresh air with our estate needs. We have already passed . on her information to our adult kids and sports partner players.

I can't recommend Jim enough, and highly recommend everyone make the time to get your estate planning, wills, in order, especially if you have kids.

1 Star -- Extremely Disappointed…read more I hired this attorney to handle the probate of my mother and father. He was paid in full before providing services--something I now consider a major red flag. My father's probate was filed on July 2, 2025. After my mother's probate was completed and her Letters of Administration were published beginning March 18, 2026, I repeatedly contacted the attorney by text and email asking about my father's case. Getting answers was extremely difficult. I eventually contacted the probate clerk myself and discovered that documents were missing and the court had already mailed my attorney a letter notifying him of the missing documents. I ultimately received my father's Letters of Administration to publish beginning July 1, 2026--nearly a year after the case was filed. This delay had a real financial impact. I could not get the deed transferred into my name in time to apply for the homestead exemption before the deadline. When I questioned the attorney about the delay, his response was: "No time tables at all with probate. They take their sweet time." I understand that courts have their own timelines. What I expected from the attorney I paid in full was to monitor the case, address outstanding documents, communicate with me, and keep the process moving. Instead, I had to repeatedly chase him for updates and ultimately contact the court myself to find out what was happening. Probate is already difficult when you're dealing with the loss of both parents. Having to fight for basic communication from the attorney I hired only made it worse. In hindsight, paying the entire fee upfront should have been my first red flag. Based on my experience, I would not recommend this attorney for probate.

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.

I worked with them on a personal family law matter, and I'm incredibly grateful I did. Even as a fellow attorney, it's very different when you're the client. Andee and Elizabeth made a difficult and emotional process feel steady and manageable. They were calm, thoughtful, and practical at every turn. I always felt like they were focused not just on "winning," but on reaching the right outcome in the most strategic way possible. What stood out most to me was their balance -- they are measured and professional in negotiations, but clearly strong and confident in the courtroom. Knowing they were fully prepared to advocate for me if needed gave me tremendous peace of mind. They were also consistently responsive and communicative. I never felt left in the dark, and every question I had was answered with clarity and patience. Family law matters are deeply personal, and having someone you trust makes all the difference. I would recommend Hastings Shadmehry without hesitation to anyone who wants capable, ethical, and genuinely thoughtful representation.

With limited time to devote to this undertaking I was at my wits end, not being able to find an attorney to help us. After three weeks of searching I saw Ann's website on Yelp and decided to give her a try. I was pleasantly surprised when she offered to send me the necessary documents to fill out and to file ourselves. This selfless act of kindness saved my friend, a vet of modest means between $700 - $900, prices quoted from other attorneys. We've had appointments set with other attorneys in the recent past, just to have some not call back. Another law firm was inconsistent with their pricing plans, leaving us to feel that they were not the right fit. Then there were those who said they where lawyers but sounded as if they might have been scammers. What a shark-infested pool! So here comes R. Ann Grier to the rescue! She sent us the forms and get this, with instructions! She took time to listen, was very patient too. I kept her contact information because if me or my family every need her services I will certainly be calling her. To R. Ann Grier, GOD bless you! May your act of kindness, empathy, compassion and honesty be repaid seven-fold. SO BE IT!!! Ben.
