We modified our trust to comply with Texas requirements. Maureen and Elliott were very thorough, professional, and pleasurable throughout the process. We would highly recommend them for trusts and wills.

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.

Intestate ( no will)
Elliott sat with me and gave me several directions I could go while explaining each one in clear detail.
As I sat there, 40# of stress began to lift off my shoulders. He was very cordial and professional and answered all my concerns. Thank you again!

Im in Ga needed a problem handled w/ my dads estate in Tx. Maureen was all set to set up a meeting w/ her boss until I asked about the cost & in 1 sec their case load suddenly got to big to help us! Be prepared to have them clean out your pockets! Shady people!!!

I recently hired Burdette & Rice for estate planning. Elliot Burdette and his staff were friendly, helpful, knowledgeable, and attentive to my questions and particular concerns regarding my situation and preferences. The process was organized, and the final documents were exactly what I needed. I am very thankful for their help.

Engaged Elliott to review and approve my pre-written Will and to get it Notarized and witnessed. Mr. Burdette and staff were so kind and professional. The completion of this was very satisfactory and I
would recommend the firm for any and all legal services.

The Burdette & Rice Firm was recommended to me by a friend and I was not disappointed. I worked with Elliot Burdette on my will and associated documents. This was accomplished quickly and efficiently, completed in a matter of days. The staff and Mr. Burdette were very pleasant to work with.

Elliot Burdette was the attorney that represented me in a personal matter. He was kind, understanding and patient. He was thorough and professional in guiding me through this difficult time. I would definitely recommend his services.

Received referral for services. Worked with Mr. Burdette on Will and Trust and other end of life documents. Very thorough package and explanations of all steps and documentation.

Very happy with the service we received

I do not ever recommend Burdette and Rice or any of their attorneys for hire. I hired them to probate my Dad's Estate and all they did was create and instigate fights with siblings that was more costly than the Estate was worth. Tried, but there is no help from other attorneys or judges. They all protect each other and their billing.

I would not recommend Elliott Burdette as an attorney. What happend to me was that I gave him a $1,000 retainer in order to simply send a letter regarding a will to a a family member. Elliot said he would send out the letter within three days. Three days went by and he still had not sent out the letter. The letter had to be received by the recipient within a certain deadline that was fast approaching.

I called and left thirteen messages (recorded this) for Elliott at the rate of two messages per day for him to return my calls and he never did. I called and spoke to his secretary and several assistants he had working for him and they said they would have him call me..still he ignored my messages. I was only trying to find out when the letter would be sent out as the deadline was approaching.

I finally drove over to his office to find out if the letter had been sent, and if not, when it would be sent. I still did not meet with him that day but he called me the next day and said the letter would be sent out.

He sent the letter out without giving me a chance to review it. The wording of his letter caused more trouble because of it's demanding and threatening manner and I never would have wanted him to send this letter had he given me the opportunity to review it.

A lot of trouble resulted for me because of his letter and to make matters worse, he then tried to keep the whole $1,000 retainer fee for sending out one letter, a letter that I spent hours trying to get him to send out in the first place.

I would certainly not recommend Elliott Burdette as a probate lawyer. He was very accessible on the phone before I gave him the retainer fee, but as soon as he had the money, he ignored me.

At a particular time in my life, I needed a will made, definitions of power of attorney, and legal help in settling my parent's estate.

This required listening and understanding through a series of complex issues and circumstances. Mr. Burdette accomplished this despite my amateurish presentation and got to the heart of the matter.

Now that the first part of my concerns has been finalized, I look forward to working with him to finish the rest of my legal issues.

Mr. Elliott Burdette and his staff were more than professional, and I want to thank them for their helpful attitude, both legal and personal.

Elliott worked with me for about 3 years to settle a very difficult estate. He and his staff were always courteous and helpful and considerate of my state of mind. There is no other lawyer in his field whom I could recommend more highly.

Probate as well as will contests can try your nerves and those of your family. Burdette & Rice makes a difficult process relatively easy in my experience.

Probate is when there is a dispute as over a will or something like that. If a loved one passes away without a will, you end up in Probate. Or, if the persons inheriting the assets have a dispute. By being represented you are able to advance your interests.

Elliotte is very knowledgeable professional and he helped us closing our refinanced mortgage. He came ready with all paperwork with additional copies (file) for us. Our experience was flawless and he answered all of our questions and doubts even days after closing the loan.
The entire closing process started and completed within the scheduled time. I recommend his services.

Elliott Burdette was courteous, professional, and extremely thorough in helping me to plan and update my legal documents. He took the time I needed and addressed my most pertinent questions. I recommend him highly.
