Horrible Law Firm ~ Stay Clear and Don't Work With Them

I own a property in Columbia, SC that I purchased through a tax lien sale that I have been trying to sell since 2012 (4 + years). I completed a quit title law suit to change the title from a tax deed to a fee simple deed (Process to rightfully take ownership of the property). I finally located a ...willing and able buyer to purchase the property and I needed an attorney to meet with the buyer to sign the purchase agreement because I live in Phoenix. I hired LawyerLisa, LLC to facilitate the sale. Prior to Pamela Price meeting with our buyer I emailed her an explanation of how we acquired the property through a tax deed and how we received a court order from a judge stating we have fee simple title to the property. Pamela met with our buyer without reading this email and the court order and advised him that if he buys our property the owner who did not pay their taxes could tell him to get off the property if a quit title lawsuit isn't completed. This put fear in our buyers mind and he later decided not to purchase our property. The buyer stated he had a cashier's check in his hand at the time for half the purchase price. Due to the lawyers at LawyerLisa, LLC I was not able to sell our property and if not sold by the end of this year I will lose it because I can't afford to pay the property taxes anymore. I would advise anyone and everyone to avoid hiring this law firm for any matters because they will not represent your best interest and they will not read important documents that could dramatically change the outcome of your transaction or legal proceeding. Stay clear of this company!

Knows What She's Doing-Gets Things Done Fast & Affordably

I use LawyerLisa for my real estate transactions and she also drafted my Will, Power of Attorney and Trust documents. Everything was done right and done quickly and I didn't get stuck with a "big law firm" sized bill, although her legal work product rivals all the "big fancy law firm" work I've seen.... As a fellow attorney, I respect the amount of work that goes into a real estate closing or trust & estates work and I admire that Lisa can get the work done more quickly and for much less than others - and stay on top of the latest changes in the law, while still maintaining top-notch quality work. I have referred her to my family, friends and colleagues and would do it again and again. She's a knowledgeable one-stop shop for building and protecting your wealth and giving you the confidence of knowing your affairs are in order and your loved ones will be protected when you're gone.
