Accepted $4,500 for will, 7 months later, no communication, no will

WARNING: I have no idea how Sabrina Winters got all these amazing reviews, but this review is based on documented facts on our 7 month experience with Sabrina Winters. August 8, 2023, my wife and I met with Sabrina, and paid her $4,500 for a will. December 20, we had heard nothing from Sabr...ina, so I sent her an email. I said that we had been struggling with exactly what information she needed to complete our will. I provided her with beneficiary and financial information, and requested that we speak more on the phone and by email in the future. The next day I received a response email that she was out of the office for a few days, and had it on her calendar to address when she returned. We never heard from her again. March 18, 2024, I started calling Sabrina over that week, I made dozens of phone calls, resulting in dozens of disconnects and voicemails. I finally was able to speak with Sabrina’s paralegal. I was told that Sabrina needed more information to complete my will, but that the paralegal did not know what that information was, only Sabrina did. Unfortunately, Sabrina was not willing to communicate with us so I had no idea when information was needed to complete our will. I told her that if we did not hear back from Sabrina by the end of the day, we would like a full refund. The money was refunded the next day. No apology, no explanation, no will. This experience was a nightmare, I strongly recommend not using Sabrina Winters..

“Thank you so much for your feedback. Because I am bound by attorney-client confidentiality, regardless of what any former client posts in a public forum, I cannot now or ever directly respond to this statement or any other statements made by you or others on this thread. To do so, would breach my ethical obligations. What I am permitted to say is, that I have practiced since 1998 and have built a reputable, highly regarded law firm since 2005 based on my integrity, kindness, being human, and simply loving the peace I help bring to the lives of my clients. Until yesterday, one would be hard-pressed to find any negative reviews on any platform about me as a person or an attorney. Those who give value to a handful of negative reviews or comments and ignore the years of outstanding customer service and kind words shared about my services and me as a person, are not the clients I am meant to help. I would encourage you please to dedicate your time and efforts to finding an attorney soon who can assist you with your estate planning.”

We are very happy with the outcome and would highly recommend Sabrina as a reliable and trustworthy estate planner.

The Midulla Jr. Family Trust

Sabrina is a true professional. My wife and I were completely at ease and confident with Sabrina from the first day we met with her. She is knowledgeable of the law and thorough in her design and implementation of an estate plan. I recommend her completely. Joe

Highest of Marks for Sabrina Winters

We met Sabrina at a seminar she participated in at our church. Being new to NC, it wasn't easy finding someone to trust with such a delicate and complex matter as estate planning and establishing a family trust. Sabrina made it very simple and straight forward. She is very personable, extremely kn...owledgeable, and exceptionally thorough. Her involvement doesn't end at the signature date. She continues to stay involved answering questions and providing guidance to both you and the financial institutions throughout the setup process. We cannot say enough good things about our experience.

Fantastic Estate Attorney

In seeking an attorney who could advise us on a complicated estate plan, we first sought someone we could trust, be comfortable sharing the intimate details of our family life, and who was knowledgeable and also willing to seek others' counsel should additional expertise be required. Sabrina was all ...of these things and more. Caring, flexible, patient, she sought to really understand what we were trying to accomplish. In addition, she is sensitive to all of the elements of family desires whether financial, cultural, generational, religious or just quirky. We also sought her assistance with my parents' estate after they moved to North Carolina, and she could not have been more kind, helpful, and thorough. Having worked with a variety of attorneys my entire professional life, I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone seeking guidance for wills/trusts, powers of attorney, and end of life documents.
