GREAT LAW FIRM

My probe matter was professionally-handled from the very start to the end. I highly recommend the Padgett Law Firm. Very professional, very knowledgeable, and fantastic customer service! A law firm that actually calls you back!!

Avoid, avoid, avoid

Somehow they got a bar license and right to practice. I feel real sad for whomever their client be. Not once they pick up the phone on me and kept delaying my case, and would contradict themselves with 24 hours to extend that I had to get another at last moment at much higher costs.

Excellence And Professionalism

Attorney Padgett assisted me with the probate of my father's estate, in which there were sibling heirs in dispute. I was appointed the Administrator, and after working with Ms. Padgett, all of us brothers and sisters began to respect each other and get along, for the honor of our father and his wishe...s. During this difficult time after my father's passing, I am grateful to have discovered Maria Padgett, a rare find, who lead the distribution process with professionalism and excellence. Thank you Attorney Padgett.

Thanks Ms. Maria - Case Resolved With No Court

I'm a trust beneficiary in a case where the trustee misappropriated trust estate funds. I was fearful of the trustee (for reasons I will not disclose here). My good friend referred me to Ms. Maria. The attorney Ms. Maria worked everything out with the trustee's lawyer so the estate got paid back, e...verything was kept out of court, and best of all, each beneficiary received their true share amount according to my parents' trust documents. I am truly grateful for Ms. Maria's negotiation and legal skills which quickly concluded this matter. It could have easily been a long expensive court battle. I plan to refer her to anyone with a similar situation.

An Outstanding Lawyer

Ms. Maria Padgett was my attorney for my criminal case. She got my charges and sentence reduced, and I am very grateful to her for this. During the process, she was professional, kind, displayed true mastery of the law, remarkable perception skills, and wisdom beyond most. She's a good honest perso...n who I would highly recommend to others.
