Waste of Money

Handled my father and grandfather's estates. He decided a settlement was better than going to court (it wasn't worth his time). We made out with a fraction of what we were supposed to inherit. Complete waste of time and money.

Waste of time and money

Mr. Charlton handled the estate returns of both of my parents. He wasted my time and my money. He prepared the returns at the last minute, after an extension, and they were not correct which added more fees. This was after I had repeatedly sent him corrections and a list of omissions. With the death.... Of my second parent, I expected the bill to be low since there was no new information but the bill was an additional $30,000.00 after more than triple that for the first parent.
