The Garrett Law Firm PLLC Georgetown Tx review signals at a glance

Nice respectful place

I just called Terry Garrett to inquire on estate planning services for my grandparents. Her attitude was so harsh and condescending for asking basic questions that I ended the call before we even got started. Hard pass. Change your attitude.

Terry was organized, thorough, compassionate, and an amazing advocate for my late grandparents and mother. She had a plan for every hurdle that popped up and streamlined the process moving forward. I recommend The Garrett Law Firm for end of life and estate planning. I’ll be using the firm to arrange my own affairs.

Terry is amazing. She helped us transfer my guardianship from another state and add my husband as a co-guardian since Texas allows it.

We are exceedingly grateful to Terry for her guidance on our recent family issue. Her direction helped us to avoid what could have been highly detrimental to our family and ensured the best result possible for a very difficult situation. When the situation evolved, she ensured that we knew how to adjust to it. We never felt personally judged, but that our issues were well understood. We appreciate that she clearly stays up to date with not only issues directly related to her work, but with those which are ancillary to that work, understanding that that knowledge will be helpful for her clients. We give Terry our highest recommendation.

Terry Garrett latched onto and indefatigably persisted in researching and constructing the solid foundation in a case opposing guardianship. I felt like I could visualize her viewing this case as if it were a three dimensional object turning in her hands to view it from every direction. This hard systematic work remains regardless of the case outcome. I am most grateful for her efforts.

My sister and I found ourselves in an unfortunate situation after our mother passed and her attorney was less than helpful. I am so grateful for the advice we received from Garrett Law Firm to help us during one of our most painful experiences.

Ms. Garrett is extremely knowledgeable, ethical and passionate about her work. She provided my sister and I with an excellent overview of benefits that should be explored for our mother. She gave us the contact info for private individuals and government agencies who could provide support in that research process. We found her empathetic and down-to-earth and walked away with a clear understanding of what the parameters are.

Estate planning/last wishes even as a non-homeowner involves complexity, and Attorney Garrett's consultation and resourcing was valuable. Her commitment to ethical practice and informed choice was much appreciated in such personal matters.

When my brother died suddenly in the summer of 2021, I was completely at a loss as to how to proceed as he lived in Austin, Texas and I live outside Washington, DC. A cousin's probate attorney referred me to Terry Garrett. It was the best possible choice I could have made. Over Zoom, she very clearly explained what the process in Texas would be if there was a will or if there wasn't, and provided very clear fact sheets describing every step of the process for me to refer to as needed. As it turned out, there was no will which meant there was a longer process to determine heirship. The flat fee arrangement offered by her office was a great benefit through the lengthy process of obtaining court recognition as my brother's heir. It meant I felt free to email her office at any time if I had a question or concern without worrying about cost. When I was the executor of my parents' estate, each time I contacted the attorney in that case, there was another charge of $200-300. I can report that anytime I had a question, I knew that I would receive a response within 24 hours, if not the same day -- even on the weekend! Because Ms. Garrett and her associates were so conscientious about the case and ensured that documents were filed promptly, my petition was before the court and settled before the end of the year. (keep in mind because of Covid there were extremely delays in dealing with government officials everywhere.) I would highly recommend Ms. Garrett to anyone facing the need to deal with a family members' estate.

Terry was helpful in assisting with my mother's estate and the Medicaid application process. She explained things clearly and answered questions in a timely manner. I would recommend her firm to others.

Terry was very helpful in Probating my mother's estate. She explained everything clearly and answered any questions I had. Will definitely recommend.
