DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY!

Please do not waste your time or money with this particular attorney. I was referred to him by my companies EAP program for a Quit Claim Deed filing Dec 2011. I paid him over $400 and it was filed. I just received a certified letter from the FL Dept of Revenue auditing me for non payment of Documenta...ry State Tax asociated with this transaction..in the amount of $800 (tax plus interest and penalty). I called Mr. Ludwig today questioning him about this audit and he would not talk to me unless i agreeded to pay an additional fee for his help. I explained the situation and he got hostile and argumentative. I asked why he never told me about such tax when the Quit Claim was filed...he said I only paid him to prepare and file the deed then hung up on me. It is unfortunate that such people are allowed to do business in such a way. I was relying on his expertise to inform me on all assocaited items with the Quit Claim but assumed wrong. Do not waste your time with this man. There are too many attorney's out there.

I am sorry this reviewer is unhappy with the service she received. We always try to do the best we can for our clients and we certainly never hang up clients. As she stated, her engagement with us was through her employer's employee assistance program. She was out of state and we never had the pleasure of meeting with her face to face. She requested a quit claim deed be prepared for an ex-boyfriend to sign involving a piece of property she and he owned in Jacksonville. This deed was prepared as she requested, arrangements we made for her ex-boyfriend to come into the office and sign and the deed was recorded on her behalf. This was all accomplished for the amount stated and she was never asked to pay anymore for the service we provided. She appears to have become upset when she was contacted by the state of Florida , asking to pay the taxes due since it involved some mortgage forgiveness. There was nothing we could have done to eliminate this tax. An effort was made to explain this to her on several occasions. Regrettably, it appears she continued to be upset about paying tax.
