I live in NC but work in SC so was hoping to find an estate planning lawyer to help me write my…read morewill in NC and be located as close to work as possible so I didn't have to miss too much work to keep any appointments. I couldn't believe my luck to find Mr. Jeter who has an office in Fort Mill, SC and is also licensed to practice in NC! The first session was free as promised. I felt Mr. Jeter was engaged in the interaction and very interested in what I was looking to get out of the process. I decided to move forward with the estate planning package (my first in this state) and Mr. Jeter continued to be a pleasure to work with. He gave me great advice on what the consequences of some of my wishes would turn out to be like if written exactly as I was originally thinking, and how we could turn them into more appropriate documents to support the intent of what I was hoping to achieve with my estate. I was very involved and very detail-oriented in the process, and he was very accommodating with my questions and concerns and made any necessary changes until the package was better than I originally expected. There were legal documents I wasn't even aware of from my previous lawyer and I appreciated that he included them in the package to be sure my wishes, and personal and financial welfare and property, are protected by the available law (whether I'm incapacitated or passed). Mr. Jeter's office was on top of executing the documents, arranging our appointments, and very hospitable and pleasant. Given all the documents and work that went into my package, I also felt that the fee Mr. Jeter quoted in the beginning was reasonable and fair. I'm grateful to have found Mr. Jeter and would recommend him to anyone who needs to do estate planning in NC or SC.

This is the law firm Atrium health uses to sue sick people who are unable to pay there outlandish…read moremedical bills. This firm has wiped out entire families retirement accounts, home equity and destroyed generational wealth for profit. Their collections practices are aggressive and unforgiving regardless of the situation. The guy would sell his soul for a buck. Atrium stopped this practice a short time ago probably due to the bad press they have received. They are one of the few hospital chains that do this due to the unsavory nature of it. But there are thousands of people in the NC that's lives have been completely destroyed during the most difficult time of their life so they could give millions dollar bonuses to their executives and pay Mr Mcintosh's fees.

Hanzel hung up the phone on me a couple weeks ago, and will not return my calls. He took my money, did nothing with my case. DO NOT HIRE THIS CORRUPT INDIVIDUAL. For almost 2 years, no one from his staff himself communicated with me regarding my case. Very disappointed in his lack of professionalism, and I believe he is "out of business." Stay clear of this corrupt firm.

He has been disbarred in 2019 and he sits in the office and pretends to be a lawyer. Every time you call him, he says he is working on it. He isn't working on anything but sitting there and taking everyone's money. He hires a lawyer to work in his office and then they disappear. It is a nice office and in a very nice area. Don't be fooled by this man. He will take your money and not help you. Plus he has been disbarred and he can't practice as an attorney in North Carolina.
