D. Scott Lautner

I had consulted with Scott Lautner prior for family wills, and minor things. When my father passed away 1 week prior to selling his home, Scott assisted me with setting up executorship of the estate . Everything was done quickly and I was able to complete the sale with a 2 week delay, making the b...uyers and me happy. Scott then continued to guide me though the rest of the tasks of settling the estate.

Lautner was very late with all tasks, the level of communication was below minimal. Mail and calls unanswered. He was incompetent at some aspects of liquidating the estate and then lied about it in emails. And, he charged a whopping $20,000 for this absolutely minimal work. He became childishly petul...ant when challenged about his competence. I am only giving him one star because there is no option for zero stars

Phone calls never returned . Over priced .Thinks he works for the head of the estate not the estate . Caused family problems for not properly instructing head of there duties and that they may in no way have a personal gain in an estate. Pa estate return not filled out correct . Family settlement ...agreement was closing estate before house was sold . Leaving rest of family to hire there own lawyers to get questions answered because he or the rep. will not answer them . Leaving estate still open for many years .
