The Law Offices of Claude S. Smith, III

Claude S. Smith recently helped me make a big decision about my mother's estate. He walked me through all the legal options with just the right amount of support. Using more than his estate planning expertise, he showed true compassion for the difficulties I faced. He didn't tell me what to do, but asked lots of guiding questions that led me to a desirable outcome. I appreciated his patience and wisdom.

Great Lawyer great help very efficient understood what I need and he delivered!!! Highly recommend

Many years ago, I needed help settling my dad's affairs. Claude was very kind and very insightful in dealing with my problems,. Later on when I had problems with a property he handled the situation very skillfully. All around good guy.

Claude was so easy to work with in understanding our family trust and when we could sell assets. I plan on using his services and referring him to everyone I know!

Mr. Smith is great to work with and so helpful. He was prompt in returning phone calls, very knowledgeable, and he was able to drill down to the crux of my issue quickly. I would definitely call him again if needed, and recommend him to others.

Mr. Smith is the most caring, understanding and down to earth attorney I’ve ever met. He’s professional and personable equally. He gets to know you and your legal situation as a whole and you’re not treated like just another number to him. Thank you Claude for all that you do!

Mr. Smith and his staff have been unbelievably helpful, informative and kind. I recommend him to anyone and everyone. He has been very understanding and extremely supportive. Anything you may need. Contact him. I guarantee you will be glad you did.

Mr Smith is a wonderful attorney to work with. We went into his office and he helped us figure everything out for free. He told us to call if we needed any other help. Im glad the Lord sent him our direction. Hopefully he can help you in your time of need as well

Unethical, bad attorney. Stay away from him.

If you want your elderly parent to lose everything, this is the lawyer for you! I consulted this lawyer about my mother, who was giving large sums of money to scammers. The lawyer simply told her, ‘It’s your money, you can do what you want,’ without addressing her mental health or the ongoing exploitation. As a result, my mother has continued to lose hundreds of thousands of dollars. I am disappointed that the lawyer did not suggest protective legal options or take the situation seriously. I would not recommend this lawyer for cases involving vulnerable adults or financial exploitation.

Mr Smith and his colleagues are knowledgeable of the law, and understanding of your questions and concerns from the beginning. You are immediately valued as a person and not just a “client”. Thank you for your genuine hospitality and follow through in all that you do.

I recently worked with the law offices of Claude S. Smith, III on a complex legal matter and was incredibly impressed with their professionalism, expertise, and dedication to my case. They explained everything clearly, kept me informed throughout the process, and ultimately achieved an excellent outcome. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing legal assistance.

Rude and screamed at my mother and myself for asking one simple question, what's going on.? He then proceeded to tell me I have no rights to know about my dad's probate case which I'm involved in btw and kicked us out. Not before he continued to belittle and scream at us all on camera . I will be reporting to the bar over this!

Mr. Smith recently represented me. When I first met him I was very distraught and unsure of my family’s future. He told me not to worry and leave it up to him and that’s just what I did. Every question I had was answered, I was never in the dark about anything. I can not say enough good things about him and all he’s done for my family. I will for sure be using him in the future if a situation ever arises

I would leave 0 stars if I could. Don’t waste your time with this guy. After months of suffering and grieving, my family needed an attorney for help settling an estate. When we called - all was well, he would help, etc. My parents arrived at the appointment and were expressing frustrations about experiences they have had with the funeral home and other processes, and Claude perceived everything as a personal attack towards him and kicked them out of his office and kept repeating “have a nice day” as if anyone could have a nice day after the terrible experience speaking with him. This man is NOT who you want to represent you - he is condescending and not understanding. He is in everything for the money and the money only. He does not want to help you or your family get through a hard time. Rather, he causes more trauma. A client should NEVER be spoken to this way regardless of if you can help them or not. I hope HE has the day he deserves.

Mr Smith Has always been good to me. I met him in 1995. I will never go to another attorney. He’s fair , honest and caring

Great lawyer! If you need someone to help you out (lawfully) he's the man to call!

Wonderful, highly recommend if you need a upstanding honest attorney. Jesse 🫡
