    This firm basically took $3000.00 from us. They did nothing at all. They were recommended by the…read morestate board which I will be writing next. Please contact me if you have had the same experience so we can spread the word and do something about this crooked. I have heard nothing from them and they did absolutely nothing. Then sent me a letter saying they were closing the firm. He didn't even have the decency to return my money so I could go to another lawyer. People and their family are already grieving and to have someone to take advantage in this way is terrible. They even made the bond man return my money because they knew they didn't do anything, so what about you. I intend to do something about this lawyer and firm. If you have had the same experience contact me at (336) 317-5770 Kimberly. DO NOT WORK WITH THIS FIRM OR THIS LAWYER!

    Be very careful in hiring this firm. We were forced to pay a 3000.00 retainer on our Mothers…read moreEstate for him to take our case. We have emails stating it would be returned once the estate is settled. It has been close to two years and still have not received any documents confirming the estate is settled. They also have charged us the percentage on the estate in addition to the retainer we paid. They refuse to pay back the retainer. We regret ever hiring this firm. Edited: Within minutes of leaving this review I received an email from Mr Payne apologizing for the delay in finalizing our estate even though I was promised on 1/02/24 by his office they would forward the closing statement. I was asked to edit my review and accused of Defamation and making false statements for leaving an honest review. He now says we "Agreed" to pay him this 3000.00 and would be happy to meet with me to explain how he worked this into our contract. Then why do I have an email stating it would be returned upon closing the estate?

    I met with Susan Harman-Scott for a consultation about my father and potential elder abuse. Mrs…read more Scott was not only knowledgeable about the law, but her years of experience gave additional insight into my situation. I left the meeting feeling heard, validated, and calm with a clear path forward. She didn't rush me out of the office because I had taken up too much time and she didn't try to get me to spend money pursuing routes that wouldn't be successful. She is excellent at what she does and knows how to communicate and explain topics and terms to non-lawyers. She was exactly what I needed and exceeded expectations.
