Awesome service during a difficult time

Susan and her staff were great in guiding me step by step through probate on my late sister's estate. Although it was a long process with a few twists and turns they methodically handled each one, keeping me in the loop with periodic updates. I highly recommend Grissom Law.

Nope. Nice Nasty, Not Thorough & Doesn't Care

She did estate planning for 3 of us, but the documents were not good at all. Disorganized, included inaccurate and confusing information, documents were unclear and not easily interpretable by third parties. Overall, not good. She made several errors and by her own admission doesnt know applicable la...ws. We didnt know this until we took it to other industry third parties in which all of them pointed out significant errors and concerns. Just an absolute mess. Her nice nasty response and unwillingness to fix her mistakes and shotty work was it for us. She's southern nice and smiles until she gets paid and then uncaring, uncooperative, and slimy as a snake afterwards. Glad she showed her true colors. We now have a new estate attorney who we had to pay to clear up her mess and he's much more knowledgeable about trust law and related legal activities, sincere, helpful and more of a pleasure to work with. Waste your time and money on Susan at your own risk, but I suggest you get a second opinion now instead of finding out later when it matters most that whatever work she did for you is God awful. For those and other reasons, we fired her and dont regret our decision.
