We are new to Florida and wanted to update out Basic Estate Planning.
We searched for an attorney and saw great reviews on Nextdoor for Ledbetter Law Group ( Steven W. Ledbetter ESQ).
We were very expressed with his knowledge and professionalism explaining the difference between all our options. His use of modern technology on his delivery was impressive. He kept things simple enough for us to understand. And he even added some small unexpected items. We thought his pricing was reasonable.
Everyone in his office were professional, pleasant and very helpful too.
Impressive was the word we would

Everyone is very friendly and helpful. We take advantage of the opportunity to review our plans every year and have found this service to be invaluable! My wife and I give them our highest recommendation.

My wife and I worked with Steve on a thorough revision and restatement of our Living Trust and all documents pertaining to our estate plan. Steve was very knowledgeable and helpful and offered some good suggestions on important topics. We were able to complete our plan and we are very pleased with the final product. It's a nice feeling to have a completed, comprehensive and up to date estate plan. We certainly recommend Steve and his team. Thanks!

The Ledbetter Law Group exceeded all expectations related to our purchase of a Florida vacation home. In particular, Jessica Burdick was outstanding! Her responses to emailed inquiries were always prompt and clearly expressed. Similarly, in phone conversations Jessica was clear, thorough and eminently friendly. Closing on a home purchase from afar because of coronavirus travel restrictions at first seemed to be a daunting undertaking. With Jessica at the helm, however, everything proceeded without a hitch. Hats off to her and the team with which she works!

Steven Ledbetter and his law office has provided us with the best service and information we've ever experienced! They will give you that rare commodity that is priceless; their time. They listen and they explain, and Steve will help you until he's sure you're comfortable with making a decision.
And his staff means it when they tell you to call if you need their input.
We were at the bank, and couldn't explain something, and called Kathy, who talked to the person and worked with him personally on the phone until everything was done! Ledbetter Law Group is your best choice for

My husband and I needed to get wills created, we have young children and some assets. We called a few lawyers in Venice and found we really liked the responsiveness of Steve Ledbetter's office.
We went in for our consultation and did not realize how many documents there were and how complicated dying could be. Steve really took his time and explained everything beautifully. He asked us very personal questions, got to know our situation, and what our preferences were. After putting our minds at ease, we decided to use Steve and his team to put together our wills and health care documents
