Joseph E. Cheeley III

Unfortunately, my experience with Mr. Cheeley was very negative. Our initial consultation was very brief, and even though I handed his paralegal a written document stating beneficiaries, etc., the product sent to me was fraught with errors. I sent an email back requesting clarification on some item...s, and corrections on others. In fairness, I also wanted to know if we could add additional items. When I received no response, I called and was told that they would have to charge me more to correct the errors. I pressed and asked what they could correct without additional charges since many were against my original wishes. I asked the paralegal to get back to me and sent a follow up email. When they followed up, I was told they would correct the errors and simply omit the items with which I had questions, but they would not execute the documents. The paralegal insinuated it was because she didn't like the tone of my follow up email (which was very inert and just listed the points of the conversation). Since they were in breach of contract by not wanting to execute the documents, I requested a refund and was refused. 10 days later they sent me a revised document with an offer to execute, but the revised document still had many of the original errors. By that time, since I had not heard from them, I had hired and had executed documents that were prepared to my satisfaction.
