Receptionist was so rude I never wanna work with a law firm like this.

Ellen never took any action toward resolution . Her philosophical approach did nothing to resolve my case. I called for an update and Ellen was at a conference on how to take a deposition....really, instead of working on my case she is "learning how to take a deposition?" Communication was poor and the only time I received any communication was an invoice which usually had double billing, one for her work or philosophies and her mentor or a Christmas card which did nothing toward case resolution . I had to bring the double billing to the attention of Burdette and Rice in order to receive restitution. She and her mentor" could not wrap their heads around an accounting" but they had no issue double billing. It is her job to "get her head around the accounting". When I asked for an update on a promised letter from her, she had forgotten and said I was now on her radar....but every month when she prepares her bill.....I AM ON HER RADAR. Money driven not results driven. I hired an accomplished Austin, Tx Litigator who immediately hired a forensic accountant to dissect the accounting. This attorney is aggressive and takes steps to accomplish our goal, he files motions to compel and issues subpoenas for discovery etc, He DOES something to conclude the case. Would not recommend Ellen who is notvresults driven but money driven.

We modified our trust to comply with Texas requirements. Maureen and Elliott were very thorough, professional, and pleasurable throughout the process. We would highly recommend them for trusts and wills.

Elliott Burdette worked with my wife and I to create a pour over will and trust along with various other estate planning legal documents for a fixed package price, offering excellent value. Elliott took the time to fully understand our wishes to structure our will and trust to meet our specific needs. He was very professional, likable, and knowledgeable. Drafts of the documents were sent to us by his assistant, Maureen Belew, for our review and edit, which streamlined the process. Drafts were finalized and we met for the signing of the legal documents. Maureen notarized the documents on the spot during our meeting and made copies so we were able to complete the process and take our finalized estate planning packages home with us. Elliott took the time to answer all of our questions and made the complex process of estate planning easier to understand. Based on our experience I highly recommend Elliott Burdette for your estate planning needs.

Intestate ( no will) Elliott sat with me and gave me several directions I could go while explaining each one in clear detail. As I sat there, 40# of stress began to lift off my shoulders. He was very cordial and professional and answered all my concerns. Thank you again!

Im in Ga needed a problem handled w/ my dads estate in Tx. Maureen was all set to set up a meeting w/ her boss until I asked about the cost & in 1 sec their case load suddenly got to big to help us! Be prepared to have them clean out your pockets! Shady people!!!

I recently hired Burdette & Rice for estate planning. Elliot Burdette and his staff were friendly, helpful, knowledgeable, and attentive to my questions and particular concerns regarding my situation and preferences. The process was organized, and the final documents were exactly what I needed. I am very thankful for their help.

The Burdette & Rice Firm was recommended to me by a friend and I was not disappointed. I worked with Elliot Burdette on my will and associated documents. This was accomplished quickly and efficiently, completed in a matter of days. The staff and Mr. Burdette were very pleasant to work with.

Elliot Burdette was the attorney that represented me in a personal matter. He was kind, understanding and patient. He was thorough and professional in guiding me through this difficult time. I would definitely recommend his services.

Received referral for services. Worked with Mr. Burdette on Will and Trust and other end of life documents. Very thorough package and explanations of all steps and documentation.

Very happy with the service we received
