    In 2018, Rhett B***** provided estate planning services to my uncle. This was primarily creating a last will and testament, a health care power of attorney, and a durable power of attorney. A nominal fee was charged.
    In Oct 2024, my uncle had a stroke, which motivated me to start using the durable power of attorney paperwork to manage his financial affairs. The first bank observed that none of the paperwork was properly notarized. The paperwork had been signed by a notary public, but no raised seal was applied and it had not been filed with the state.
    I called Rhett B***** to try and straighten this out. Best case, his office had properly notarized documents, or they could help me get the documents properly notarized, or they could simply refund the money. I called the office at least 3 times, always leaving a message with an office person who said I would get a call back. I was never called back.
    My uncle died in the very last days of 2024, making this whole POA process moot.
    It is bad enough that mistakes were made in what should have been a very simple process. But upon learning that there were issues that could be rectified, it is very disappointing that no attempt was made to help correct matters.

BBB asks third parties who publish complaints, reviews and/or responses on this website to affirm that the information provided is accurate. However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic.

As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation.
