Debra Simms had set up a trust for me a few years ago. I went back to her to make some changes to the trust and to my will. She asked me what I wanted to accomplish and then proceeded to advise me as to the best way to go about making these changes. Everyone I dealt with in her office has been very professional and I would highly recommend Attorney Simms.

Sorry Debra for our late review, so here it is...not only is Debra a great attorney, very thorough, and goes out of her way to be available to her clients, but she is truly a great person. We would have never left her if is wasn't for our relocating to New York State. Thanks Debra for all you did for us...The Perry's.

Hi Barbara and Dave! Thank you so much for this wonderful review. I hope all is well with you in your new home! Take care, Debra

The receptionist and attorney are very unprofessional. After waiting weeks for the appointment we were called and asked to cancel and reschedule in another 2 weeks. When we finally arrived we waited more than 30 minutes and when we inquired how much longer, we were made to feel like we were rude for asking. Then, the attorney was rude and very disrespectful to my father. She spoke down to him and belittled him for asking questions and the need for clarification. This is not the treatment my father deserves. We got up and walked out!

Response from owner

G, I am very sorry to have caused you and your father any distress. And, I am very sorry that your father felt disrespected. I always strive to treat any potential client with courtesy and respect. Sometimes when I meet a person at the initial consult, it turns out that I cannot meet his or her legal needs. I apologize again if your father felt disrespected. Perhaps he can call me so that I can personally apologize.<br>Debra

Debra Simms, P. A. is a very understanding and compassionate attorney. She helped me with any questions or concerns I had with regards to a revocable trust and was very patient when I needed some time to do some research prior to making my final decision. She was very thorough and accurate with the trust documents. I highly recommend Debra Simms if you are looking for an Attorney to help with completing a trust and will that best fits your needs for you and your family.

Thank you, Jessica. I really appreciate your taking the time to write this review. I enjoyed working with you!<br>Debra

My wife and I wanted to make sure all that we had worked for would go to our daughter without any problems. We found Debra Simms from a friend and set up a meeting. I had some idea of what legal documents we needed. I had no idea what was necessary for a smooth transition for our daughter if we passed away unexpectedly. Debra Simms explained and listed what was necessary to make it easy for our daughter. She provided printed docs that were easy to comprehend and then emailed us a copy of all the legal papers we needed. We checked them for names, dates, etc before meeting for the signing and notarizing of more documents that we had ever seen. We were very happy with the lawyer we had chosen. A very nice lady.

Response from owner

Thank you so much for this wonderful review. It means a great deal to me to have satisfied clients. I enjoyed working with you and your wife very much.<br>Debra

I am writing to make a formal complaint against Debra Simms. She was hired to excute a Will and Trust for my aunt and showed no compassion, empathy or interest on her dying days. We reached out several times to Ms Simms for help when my aunt quickly declined in her health . We were expecting at a minimum for her to guide us through this process only to realize that was not her interest or priority. She refused to go out of her way in any manner to make this a smooth transition. Her demeanor in speaking with me was belittling, egotistical, and indifferent of my aunts needs. I am writing this in the hopes that no one else has to experience a crisis like ours with a heartless attorney. .

Response from owner

Dana,<br>I am taken aback by your review, since I had made numerous efforts to accommodate the needs of your aunt while her health was in rapid decline.<br>Respectfully, your aunt came to me over a month before her passing. Learning of her prognosis, I prepared her estate plan on a rush basis and promptly forwarded the drafts for her review. During the weeks thereafter, there were continued discussions about the final version of the documents. <br>After the documents were finally approved, I made numerous attempts to arrange for a time for your aunt to sign the documents, including a time convenient for you and your work schedule, so that you could bring your aunt to my office. I even arranged for my staff to come into the office on their days off, while I was on vacation, to accomplish the signing. However, you declined that appointment.<br>The very day that I returned from vacation, we made another attempt to schedule a signing, but unfortunately, you told me that your aunt was no longer lucid nor responsive to communication. <br>It was in sadness that I learned of your auntโ€™s passing the very next day, as I had grown very fond of her during our time working together.<br>Debra<br>
