This office is on my employers list. It's a service that is offered with a monthly payment. Like…read moreyour health insurance. You don't use an attorney every mont but I pay every month. But they are contracted for services. I had an appointment - emails - phone calls while preparing my documents. The day before I was to come & sign it - I'm told " we're declining this service. We aren't going to get paid enough from your insurance. I get paid $400 an hour. A will is @ $1200" . really ? Like my dr who has a contract - you do accept services at a discounted rate. Why be on my providers list if you're not going to accept their payment. ? I have paid every month for years. The first time I decide to use their service & this happens. So unethical. I would not even post one star but the system makes me post something.

We decided not to use Penny Austin due to the amount of legal jargon, which we did not understand…read moreand which Penny was either unable or unwilling to translate for us. Far too much boilerplate and too little customization to fit our needs. We were also very concerned that she seemed to write herself in as a decision-maker in the event we became incapacitated in lieu of our trustee and executor. It was a difficult decision to make but we decided to seek a different estate attorney.

You have always been there for me and I cannot thank you enough.

Our parents used the Estate Planning Group (attorney - Jake Whitmire) to draft their living trust…read more Since that time our father has passed away and our mother has been seeking Jake's assistance in updating the trust (amend or restate).

09/02/2022 June 21, 2020 My mother passed away. She had…read morehired the EPG to handle her affairs and create a trust. The trust named me, the eldest of 3 children, as the Trustee. Their office did not forward me a copy of the trust for reasons never shared with me to this date. August 1, 2020 I sent their office a letter stating my sister could list and sell the property she had left us, as she is local and I live out of state. I received no reply from EPG, and still no copy of the trust. Earlier this year, It became obvious my sister was unable to fulfil the task of selling the property, and I reached out to the EPG to obtain a copy of the trust and execute my duties as Trustee in order to list and sell the property myself. June 29, 2022 (two years with no contact whatsoever from their office) I sent an email with my intentions. It took a while and multiple calls and emails to receive a response. I was informed the file was in storage off-site and they would need to retrieve it and contact me thereafter. Weeks worth of calls and emails were placed with EPG following. I'm sorry to say that as of this writing I still have not received a copy of the trust. I am greatly saddened and extremely disappointed in my deceased mothers choice to go with this firm. August 23, 2022 I received an email from Jack which states "Under the conflict of interest rules for attorneys, I won't be able to represent you since I gave advice to [my sister] in the past. I wish I could, but it is forbidden. I can definitely get you a copy of the trust for your review." It's odd that he is forbidden to speak with the named Trustee. I would never recommend using the EPG to anyone based upon my experience. The handling of my mothers affairs is not acceptable and there seems to be a track record of using the "conflict of interest" excuse based on other reviews I've seen. Because the trust is not in my inbox or mailbox as of this writing on Sept 2, 2022, I've decided to share my experience so that others may perform their own research beforehand and in hopes this information saves another from the same frustrations.
