Dawn Ellis

I hired Dawn Ellis to settle my Mother's estate. She quickly and thoroughly answered all my questions and her fees were very reasonable. Her response time was great and the estate was settled in much less time than I had anticipated. I wish I could give her more than 5 stars as I feel her service ...was that good. I would highly recommend Dawn at My Florida Probate for your probate needs.

Dawn Ellis had a very reasonable flat rate to do the probate for my deceased sister - my sister had a very small estate and it didn't make financial sense to hire an attorney at an hourly rate, especially since the ones we talked with were unwilling to share what general price range it would end up b...eing at an hourly rate. An attorney friend of a friend recommended hiring someone with a flat rate, from the Bar Association website, and Dawn's name was among those on his list. Dawn always responded promptly to my emails, she was very professional, efficient, courteous and friendly. She walked me through exactly what I needed to do as the administrator. I live across the country, and my mother, the heir of the estate, lives abroad, so we never got to meet Dawn in person, and it never was a problem, we did not have to. I am very grateful that she is such a good conscientious and honest attorney - it could have been really rough if I had gone with someone who turned out to be less responsive and thorough. Dawn made the process of filing all the paperwork and closing the estate as painless as it could possibly be in the circumstances. She never added any stress to the process, she only took a lot of potential stress away that we might have had if we had gone with someone else who charged an hourly rate or was less responsive. In the end we even got a small check back for the unused costs advance check we sent her, she was pretty much right on the mark of what the expenses would be. I would very highly recommend her, Dawn Ellis was of tremendous value, both financially and emotionally.

As I live in Minnesota, and I had never needed to settle the estate of a parent who passed away as she lived in Florida, I had no clue of how to begin the process, and I was not getting much help from Lee County. Only after searching for Estate Lawyers that were licensed in Florida, we "stumbled" up...on a couple of Attorneys to interview. With Dawn, there was no interview necessary. Right from the start, she communicated clearly and she was very helpful. Simply, Dawn was affordable, efficient and she completed the job with no issues! I would definitely use her again!

Ms Ellis, Esq did Florida ancillary probate on pre-deceased father's estate at the time of my mother's passing; then she did mother's Florida ancillary probate estate. Both estate probates were flawlessly accomplished in reasonable time. I add that Florida ancillary probate for low-value plot of und...eveloped property is much more difficult & expensive then same procedure in say Virginia, but I cannot and do not attribute this deficit to Ms Ellis, Esq rather to the probate laws of the State of Florida. I readily & heartily recommend Ms Dawn Ellis, Esq for anyone's Florida ancillary probate needs. She did excellent work on my behalf. Thank you Ms Ellis, Esq.
