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.

I had retained Ellen Bennett as my attorney for my will a few years back. She is very professional and knowledgeable. I was unable to travel to her office and was required to find someone closer to my residence. Her legal assistant Lisa Hagar was the most helpful person I have known. She went above and beyond to help me with my needs. I HIGHLY recommend this firm.
