If I could give negative stars I would. Jason Waddell prepared a new will for my mom in 2024, AFTER she had been declared incapacitated in 2023 (due to memory loss from Alzheimer's) by her neurologist. He chose to believe lies and false accusations from strangers that had been taking advantage of my mom for years. He put money before the welfare of my mom. And to make it even worse, in the will he prepared he named the new POA as one of the women that had been taking advantage of my mom. What type of lawyer would do this?! I would NEVER recommend Jason Waddell to anyone. He shouldn't be able to practice law as what he did was extremely unethical.

Amazing estate planning legal assistance. Even with our modest needs, Mr. Waddell and Stephanie have been tremendous.

My husband passed three years ago and his probate is still not settled. Our homestead is an exception from his personal debts. I continue to make the mortgage, insurance and tax payts on the home. His sons have given up any rights they have in the house legally with notarized statements to the court. Florida has clear laws on handling exempt homestead of the deceased and the widow's rights. I am baffled why this case cannot be settled! Mr. Waddell promised me that it would be settled by end of May 2024. It is July 2024 and still not settled! He is supposed to be representing me in this matter and has totally dropped the ball! I have even consulted with other elder law attorneys and they don't understand why it continues to drag on. I am very disappointed in the handling of my case and he continues to blame Judge Boles and his clerk for the delays. I have used Mr. Waddell in the past to set up a Qualified Medicaid Trust for a friend and was happy with his service that is why I gave them 2 stars instead of one. Marti Penland-Hearn

Mr Waddell was very knowledgeable and showed great patience with my mother who is unable to speak because of a stroke. When we did her living will and advance directives and quick claim deed for my mother's home he came to my mother's nursing home and with knowledge and dignity was able to take care of her needs!

As someone living in the UK, I had occasion to contact Waddell & Waddell to help me with a USA-based legal matter. Not being able to spend time in the US, I was dependent upon them to take care of business on my behalf. And they absolutely did. They showed great discretion when dealing with personal matters. Their communications were solid, keeping me informed at every step of the way. They gave sound advice when needed and quickly answered any queries I had. I have nothing but good things to say about them.
