5
Excellent estate planning expertise
“David Mitchell was extremely helpful in making a will and trust for me helping make the very important choices for my legacy. Comforting to know my family will be taken care of.”
Cons
1
Billing issues and lack of transparency
“I only wish I could give less stars. After eight months of being pushed around and bullied, giving the ex whatever she wanted and paying the "lawyer" seven grand, the day I fired them I was told " but I'm ready to fight for you now"”
2
Lack of communication and client responsiveness
“I was told that although that was an unfortunate mistake they still did 12k worth of work preparing. FRAUD! Unfortunately, if your not a lawyer or rich you can't fight a lawyer.”
