Brian Thomas Comfort

This review is for Brian Comfort only as I have not had any experience with the other attorneys in this office. Warning! Make sure you know what you are getting into before you go into their office. They charged us $300 for an hour consultation on a will and didn't tell us that they were charging ...us for it. My husband and I were interested in setting up a will. I called the office and told the receptionist that we were new to this and wanted to set up a will but didn't know anything about it and were trying to figure it out. She said the next step would be to come in and talk to someone. We set up a time to meet with Mr. Comfort. We go in, we discuss what our options, how much it will cost, etc. we say ok thank you for meeting with us, we'll have to think about it. A few weeks later I get a bill for $300 for ONE HOUR of his time. I call the office and say I think there has been a mistake. I explain to the receptionist (who was very nice btw) she says that's understandable, let me check on that for you. She says it is correct and puts me through to Mr. Comfort who tells me he doesn't know what to tell me, that he doesn't work for free. To which I reply that if I were being charged, I should have been told that I was being charged and that his receptionist didn't tell us there would be a charge for coming in. He responds with something along the lines of Do you go to the doctor and expect not to be charged? To which I replied, no I don't but that they do let me know how much I'm being charged. Can you imagine going to the doctor and NOT knowing that you were in for a $300 bill? I am infuriated at the lack of ethics in Brian Comfort and am writing this review to warn others.

I have used this attorney since approx 2005 for issues regaing Trusts, investments and wills. I am very impressed. I have been frustrated with other attorneys who put me on the back burner and who I had to call to get moving again. Not this one, he is a keeper. I am able to get in to talk with... him quickly, and he follows up on what was discused quickly as well.
