I have known attorneys at KDG for years and they have a great reputation as individuals, and KDG as…read morea law firm. I have worked in the legal field for many years and have sent them many recommendations and referrals. Nobody I have referred has returned to me with negative comments. I have not personally used KDG until the passing of my father, who left me as the trustee of his living trust. With multiple beneficiaries and a decent estate to settle, I wanted the best Estate and Trust attorney I could find and there were two I really have high regard for. One of them, Nancy Oehler at KDG, was my choice. Nancy is not inexpensive, but she gets things done that few other attorneys in this field can or do. It's not that they can't, I suppose, it is that they don't know that some things CAN be done. Nancy has the kind of experience and ability to navigate problems that few attorneys do, and that makes her work worth every penny. I have dealt with several other attorneys at KDG over the years and found them to be top shelf people and very good at their jobs. The staff at KDG are well trained, professional and quick. Time is not wasted, and work comes accurate and complete. KDG is not cheap, but they are worth the money. Attorneys, in general are not cheap, but having the best possible legal advice and assistance is definitely worth it. After working on the trust with KDG and Nancy Oehler, I can say I'm glad I sent them all the referrals and will continue to do so. Very impressive law firm. Keep it up!

Of-course most replies first message to me were their list of fee's and so forth, thats ok, I get that and totally understand it, gotta pay if we're looking for any legal help. I get it. But, Mr. Hernandez' reply to me was different from the others, he was the ONLY lawyer to reply back telling me to try out these "FREE" forms first where I could basically fill out a Will myself...for free! He sent me three state websites that I should check out first where I maybe will not need to pay any money. Mr. Hernandez did not have to do that, he could have done what the others did and sent me his fees and so forth. Mr. Hernandez doing this for me proves he absolutely cares about helping people first, instead of taking people's money first. He most likely saved me ALOT of money. This simple act show's the charachter and integrity of Mr. Hernandez. I will absolutely keep Mr. Hernandez' number close by if I should need him in the future and I will definitely recommend his services to others. Thank you so much again Mr. Hernandez!

I should start by saying that he did refund a good portion of our retainer and rightfully so. The…read morefollowing statement is supported by facts that are available to be shared with anyone at anytime to prove that this review is based on actually happening and not feelings. It took them 4 weeks to even get a phone call scheduled with me to write up the paperwork. Other attorneys found this to be absolutely ridiculous and the turnaround should have been within 2 weeks. Thats just information I received after the fact. Once the phone call was made, Serena was told multiple times during the phone call and in an email that a specific address that repeated multiple times throughout the document needed to be changed to another very specific address due to safety reasons because an individual that was a 2 time convicted felon who had already been formally trespassed and had physically threatened us. This indiviual need not know the address. This felon was also responsible for arson of another property. All of this was very thoroughly explained to Serena multiple times. She changed the address in one spot and there were approximately 6 places it needed to be changed. Conclusion, she didnt read the document and/or didnt care. Not sure which. Serena also misclasified and Individual as a trustee when they were never mentioned anywhere as a trustee, only a beneficiary. Conclusion, same as previous conclusion but uncertain. We were biled over $900 for Brumfield himself to proof read everything and yet this all slipped by him as well. Conclusion...unknown. I have literally over 100 phone calls to them back to back to prove that once you fire them, they will ignore you. I pushed my way through until I got through. There are also many other reviews I read that stated Brumfield ignored their calls as well however that is their statement. I have no proof of theirs, only mine. There is still so much more inprofessionalism however I can't write a novel here. Again, I did receive a sizeable refund and all of my statements are true and correct with documentation in writing from notary documents and Brumfields own emails from him AND his staff. Why 2 stars and not 1? While the service was subpar and I wasnt at all happy, that does not mean that some of the knowledge shared wasnt of value and that knowledge does deserve some recognition. How vast is the knowledge? Unknown. I couldnt get that far due to the subpar service from his paralegals. "Caveat Emptor" Feel free to reach out if you do want any proof of my previous statement in this true and honest review UPDATE After Mr. Brunfield read this and chose to respond the way he did, he then emailed me telling me I was in breach of contract telling me to remove my review. Our contract states that once the refund had been received I no longer held him and his office liable. I do not hold him or his office liable any longer. I let him know this is my 1st ammendment right and that this is not holding him liable but simply a true and correct review with all proof to back it up. The choice from here is yours to decide. I have his email to show what I stated is true FURTHER UPDATE Mr. Brumfield emailed me once again to try and threaten me to remove this review. He stated my intent was to harm him and his firm. I explained i am simply sharing my experience to others and his own actions would be the only thing to harm his firm. He the updated his response further. I believe his actions here are very telling. Once again, I have all emails to back up my statements.​

Mr. Gorski told me to call back once I had all my documents, and would see if he would be able to help with the court proceedings but I was left feeling unsupported and uncertain about whether he could assist with my upcoming court date. This was an unprofessional and frustrating experience, and I would not recommend their services based on how I was treated.
