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.

My experience with Elliott Burdette was excellent and very professional. I contacted his office for an appointment to discuss creating a Will for myself and a date was set. At our first consultation, he made many good suggestions and was very adept at explaining to me the meaning and purpose of each document. I left feeling very confident that all of my questions had been answered and that the documents I needed were being created perfectly for me. Our next meeting was to finalize and sign the finished documents. I can truly say that the whole experience was quite enjoyable.

Elliott made the process easy for getting our wills, power of attorney, physician directives, etc... He always made me feel like he was listening to our concerns. He was always professional in our dealings and knows his stuff.

I engaged Elliott to help administer a Texas will through probate. He was a huge help, and we were able to probate the will and wind down the estate in under a year. Elliott has a great grasp of the law and was able to provide sound, practical advice throughout the process. I won't hesitate to work with Elliott and his firm again. I'm an attorney and appreciate good legal work when I see it. I will also be sure to recommend Elliott to friends, colleagues and other attorneys.

He explained what my options were in detail. He answered my concerns in each option, explaining pros/cons and cost of each option. When I made my decision, I was able to feel I made the best decision for my family without hesitation. We all know that during the time of a death of a family member is very difficult, he helped to lift the burden of what needed to be done in a clear, concise and professional manner. I would recommend Elliott and his firm to both friends and family. A+

I am an elementary school teacher and after the unexpected death of my elderly neighbor, I found out that she had left me as executor and trustee of her estate. As it turned out, another woman came forward claiming that she was the one that my neighbor really wanted to be in charge of the estate.
Worried and very scared, I knew that I needed someone competent, experienced, understanding, and professional to help me follow through on my deceased neighbor's desires.
Thank goodness I found Elliott. He calmed my fears, took copious notes, talked me through everything, followed up on all proceedings and was very thorough in his guidance and in his protection of me throughout this case. Because of Elliott's expertise, I was able to follow through on my responsibilities to my dear neighbor and I learned so very much in the process.
I would recommend Elliott Burdette highly!! He is top-notch in his field.

I've worked with Jay for over 20 years. He did an excellent job setting up my company, Diamond Voice Messaging, as an LLC and has continued to be a resource for us. Very informative and easy to work with.

Elliott was great with my family. He was very outgoing and friendly but very professional. He is very good at what he does! Elliott got everything for my family that we wanted in our case and without going into too much detail he went above and beyond to make his clients happy. I would highly recommend Elliott Burdette to any of my friends and will continue to do so. Thanks Elliott!!

Mr. Burdette is extremely knowledgeable and professional. He may not have quite the attention to detail (i.e. often executor was referred to by the decedent's name). His staff also lacked attention to detail. Mr. Burdette is very pleasant and truly values his clients.

Elliott has been my estate attorney and friend for 7 years. He handled the estates of both my mother and cousin plus he drafted my will, trusts and other paperwork. He is an excellent attorney, kind, understanding, always returning a call when contacted. His staff is equally qualified and available to answer any questions. I have given his name to many friends as the best estate attorney in the Dallas area and will continue to do so. I highly recommend Elliott Burdette as the finest estate attorney in the area and perhaps in the state of Texas.
