Ana Maria Hernandez-Pace

Danyal is extremely kind and professional. I was searching for a probate lawyer and contacted three different attorneys. Danyal called me back within five minutes, while the other two still haven’t responded. We scheduled a consultation for the next day, and within one week my living trust was compl...eted. He was very patient and thorough, answered all of my questions, and made sure I had everything my family and I needed. I truly felt supported throughout the entire process. I am very happy with his service and highly recommend him. Thank you, Danyal!

My husband and I were looking for an attorney in Collin County when we found Ana Pace. One of the best decisions we made was hiring her. She is very honest and communicative. You must listen to her advice. She is extremely knowledgeable and fights hard for her clients, she truly cares. We could not b...e more pleased with our decision and highly recommend Ana. She won a very important case for us and we appreciate how committed she was in fighting for us until the very end. Best experience we have encountered with an attorney.

Ana has been very patient, understanding, and straightforward with my whole process. My mom unexpectedly passed away without a will and in order for me to get her probate money I needed some help. I was recommended to Ana and it felt like fate to me because everything just went by so smooth that I fe...lt I was doing the right thing. She was intact my first and only option, I’m glad I didn’t go looking for multiple people. I got it right the first time with her! Ana kept up with attorneys, appointments, paperwork, everything, and that assured me I could trust her. We in fact got things done 1-3 months earlier than we had anticipated. I’m only 21 and I had ZERO idea on how to even start but once I talked to Ana and she explained everything to me and gave me lots and lots of information, I felt at ease. It was definitely overwhelming at first but as time went by and she was patient with me, things got smoother. Ana gets the job done and cares for her clients, no doubt. I recommend anyone to Ana who is just like me, that didn’t know how to even go start. Start with Ana! She’ll walk you through everything else. She works with some of the best people in Dallas and I thank her and God that everything went by fast and smoothly! 10/10 for me!

Ana Pace, is the Gold Standard when it comes to Estate Planning and Probate. This is her, "wheelhouse " and she is an expert that i will use time and time again should the need arise.I wish I had enlisted her services when I first started my mother's estate probate process in August of 2020. Instead,... I hired an attorney who put on a good show, but had zero expertise in the Estate Probate ring. I was constantly fed excuses as to the probate hold ups, and I was being billed for every single issue that arose which resulted in a constant redo of paperwork and petition letters. I was assigned 4 different attorneys from within the firm and everytime a new attorney was assigned, the entire process started all over, however, I was still being charged and billed every month. After 2 1/2 years and $15,000.00, I literally had zero to show for and I was no closer to a court date to determine executorship of my mother's estate. I was feeling as if the process would never end. Upon a recommendation froma close friend, I arranged a consultation and met with Ana to determine, "what are my options, and where can I go from here." Having just spent $15k and lost 2 1/2 years in the process, I didn't think there was much hope and that I was stuck with what I had. I was never more wrong, Ana, was that reaching hand that saved me when I was drowning. Ana thoroughly explained the process to me and what she could do to rectify the jumbled up mess my previous attorney had created. Almost instantly, I experienced a sense of calm come over me, this is the attorney I should've hired to begin with. While most attorneys dabble in matters across the board, and nickel and dime you at every step, Ana specializes in Estate matters and walks you through every process along the way charging a low flat rate. There were no hidden surprises, no additional fees for redrafting or re-filing of papers/letters due to attorney mistakes. I am so very thankful Ana was able to salvage my case from my previous attorney. Ana was not only able to salvage the mess but she additionally got my case before the courts and successfully completed my wishes in a very short time at a fraction of what I had previously paid. If there is one piece of advice I can give to the individual(s) reading this review; give Ana a call and let her do what she specializes in...deliver results! Thank you Ana for all of your dedication and hard work.

When selecting a respectable law firm to assist in probate issues was not an easy task, well I was very fortunate. I selected the Shutt Law Firm PLLC . After one face to face visit, my attorney, Mrs. Ana Pace, was a very caring and understanding individual (I just lost my son and he did not have a ...will and I live 6 hours away). She provided all of the facts (even provided a handout detailing the process and overview), prepared the appropriate documentation and coordinated with the court to get the earliest appointment available (via Zoom) so that I could become the Administrator of my son’s estate as soon as possible, as many things had to be accomplished (home mortgage, cars, funds for his children, utility bills, phone, cable, a few odd ones, and of course Credit cards). Ms. Ana even provided a kit to assist me in handling/dealing with the credit card companies. All these actions were accomplished within 2 ½ months after visiting the law firm, which I heard it ,normally would have taken 6 to 8 months. Therefore, without a doubt, I would highly recommend this law firm to anyone who needs to accomplish a will, a trust or probate issues. Thank you for an outstanding job as it has made my life a lot easier. You are #1 in my book and a law firm that can be trusted. Mr. Gene D. Gatzert
