My husband and I spoke with Douglass Lodmell to get clarity on entity set up and strategy for protection of our assets as well as what we will need to plan toward in the future. Our time with Douglass provided us so much clarity and we left the call feeling relieved and grateful for the time spent with us. Needless to say, we have found a partner in Lodmell & Lodmell who will be a valuable part of our journey moving forward!
I spent approximately $ 50k on Lodmell to have a trust created to protect assets. A divorce cost a lot upfront but I couldn't afford to pay alimony after retirement. Lodmell never told me I could be found in "civil contempt" for moving an account to his protection and I was. I was arrested and spent months in jail while trying to borrow money to meet the "purge" amount (which was larger than the original amount owed). Worse, Lodmell did not remember his actions re: my accounts and made unusable recommendations. His appointment of Southpac as an offshore "trustee" was also a fiasco, with huge fees for signing a few documents, confusing facts and accounts while holding my money hostage. Don't be fooled by Lodmell's illusion of "Asset Protection".
As far as I know they're doing a good job. The problem is as a non-legal person, I need more assistance in making finite adjustments in my trust. I'm given verbal advise over the phone and left on my own to work it out when I ask questions. I always feel rushed or like an inconvenience when I call. Meanwhile, I'm paying $1100.00 per year for almost no service. I'm assuming that if something happened and I needed all the mechanisms contained in the trust it would work as advertised, but I don't know for sure. I'm considering taking a trip to Arizona for a sit-down to review my entire estate. I don't even know if that's possible.
5 stars highly recommended
The astute responsiveness of Attorney Douglass Lodmell and his law firm as an asset protection specialist is exactly what I have experienced and appreciate doing business together for over 25 years. When I have a liability exposure question Mr. Lodmell promptly and clearly brings forth a high level of experience and thoughtful advice. I have full confidence in the firm's ability to proactively navigate, anticipate and avoid the unpleasantires of personal exposure. Thank you for your accurate work and guidance throughout many years.
Absolutely hands down the best firm.
I had a wonderful experience working with Ike. He is very good at what he does. He has alot of useful resources and he really takes into consideration what's best for you.
Process made a complex process workable!
It seems unfathomable that an honest individual’s hard work and smart investment decisions can become their emotionally imprisoning liabilities. However, that is exactly what can result from the individual’s naivety and via an unfair “justice” system. If you are fortunate enough to personally own any assets other than a homesteaded property and/or a retirement account, don’t take that ownership for granted. Instead, ensure your continual control of those assets by putting a solid protection strategy in place developed by the best there is- call Lodmell & Lodmell today.
sharp people, know their stuff, peace of mind knowing if trouble comes will be ready
Knowledgeable lawyers, efficient staff. I feel comfortable that my assets are protected. Would recommend this firm to anyone who needs asset protection
I have been a client of L&L for many years now and have always happy with their service. I highly recommend them! Tim R.
Thanks for making something as complicated as asset protection easy for me!
Great law firm to work with!
Always answers my questions, thank goodness for Coletta!! Provides a deep sense of security, in & out of the office...
Very high up front fees with relatively little downstream guidance. You can accomplish the same things at a fraction of the cost through other overseas entities by dealing directly with them.
very good response when inquiring about my policy . we went over everything in great detail
I have appreciated the work that the Lodmill group has done for my family and me. Douglass has been available to help with questions or concerns that I have had over the years regarding our family trust and business interest.
Excellent service always there for advise.
We have been taken care of by this firm for many years with excellent service.
