McDowall Cotter

My family Trust experience with this law firm was disastrous! After being charged extremely exorbitant rates I feel I was not represented in the slightest. I was led to believe they could help me, but it landed up only benefitting their firm. I do not feel that they had my best interest in mind. I was disappointed with their service leading up to mediation, although hopeful based on our consultations. Well, mediation was the worst possible experience that I could have imagined. They did not fulfill any of the promises that they made prior to mediation and it ended up costing me $ 15K. My case was simple and routine for a firm like this. Clearly they avoided the simple route and dragged it on to not only cost well above our agreed amount, but I didn’t get anything close to what was guaranteed after numerous hours of dialogue. I do not feel they were knowledgeable about Trust Law. Do yourself a favor and use someone else.

As a realtor with a law degree, I frequently get involved in selling homes which involve either a probate or a trust. This often requires close interactions with my clients and their attorneys. Over the years, I have had the opportunity to work with most of the attorneys and staff at McDowall Cotter. I have found them to be extremely knowledgeable about trust and probate law, responsive, compassionate, professional in their conduct, and dedicated to serving their client’s interests. Whether you’re looking for estate planning or managing an estate for someone who has passed away, you will find the people at McDowall Cotter to be great advisors and partners.

Horrible, no call backs, always get the run-​around from Brett. Really gone down hill the last 5 years. Sad.
