Maria Obdulia Padgett

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.

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.

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.

Edit: 1/24/21 The work described below has since been completed and was done free of charge. Ms Padgett contacted me, apologizing and explaining the difficulties faced by businesses during these pandemic times. I certainly understand that times are challenging and would understand about delays in ...work. I still find it problematic, however, to have no communication about such delays and to be unreachable for over 2 months. I would hope that such issues would not occur in the absence of the pandemic, but it is unclear to me if communication practices within the firm have substantially changed at this time. That being said, Ms. Padgett was prompt and efficient in handling our request once she did respond. ------------------------------------ (previous 1 star review) My experience with this law firm has been horrible. We've been trying to get our deed transferred into a living trust that they helped us create since October (it is now early January). It still isn't done. We reached out repeatedly through the months of November and December after not hearing anything and, every time we reached out (at least at first) we would get a promise that the work would be finished by the end of the week. This never materialized and we would never hear anything back. Now I've been trying for weeks to get a hold of anyone (multiple email addresses and phone numbers). We've haven't been able to get a hold of anyone who can even talk to us about the status of our case. The people answering the phone lines don't have direct lines to anyone handling cases and can only leave messages that are never returned. Emails are never answered and I'm starting to seriously wonder if anyone is actually working at this firm. I do not intend to do business here ever again and I would suggest you avoid them as well.
