Randall A. Denha

Randy was referred to me by my accountant. What a mistake this experience was! At our first meeting, he quoted a price for my estate plan to be drawn up which was a reasonable price. He did not offer his contract or price in writing, but his verbal quote was clear. For a set price, he would provide ...a complete set of Trust documents, showing me a three ring notebook of what those documents would look like. On the final day for pick up, he handed me a bill that was FOUR TIMES the amount quoted, citing that it took him "extra time" to get the work done, although, my packet was no more extensive that the sample he showed me. In retrospect, I should have asked 'Randy the snake' for a contract, specific price, hourly rates, and a "not to exceed" price instead of listening to his constant preening of how good he was at his job and how many and how important his client list was. I paid the bill within 3 days, disappointed in myself for falling for his legal b.s. I felt conned by Randy and his slick lawyer legalese. But the story goes on. Several months later I had to present my Trust to another attorney for another matter. What we found was that Randy had not completed the Trust, leaving a critical piece of paper that needed to be executed with signatures 'out of place' in the document, almost like he had hidden it within the document as it was clearly out of number sequence. This unsigned page made the Trust invalid. I had purchased a legal document that had not been properly executed. My thought is that he may be doing this with other clients which would require them to go back to him to complete the document. If you were already deceased, your family would have a trust that was sloppy, incomplete, and invalid. Heads up to anyone who hires Randy Denha based upon my personal experience as his client. Make sure to have him commit to his price in writing. Then before concluding business with him, assume that any documents he has prepared for you are INCOMPLETE. Check every page for signatures and full execution. Don't rely on his secretary either. I don't buy his argument that "he forgot". "Oops, our mistake" was his answer. If he is that sloppy, you would do better hiring someone else. This review was not written for many months after our transaction, but I don't want anyone else to succumb to the poor quality of service and product that I received.
