Wimberly Lawson Daniels & Fisher, LLC

Called for multiple months and can never get something as simple as a custody agreement just wrote up. He continues to say he will call back and never does. Don’t waste your time contacting this firm!!

I never leave negative reviews, to my recollection this would be the first. I have had two interactions with Lee Daniels and both have been negative. In one instance he issued title insurance on a property that still had a lien on it, up stream from when I purchased it, and when I went to refinance after renovations I had to track him down and wait until the lien was satisfied by him which was a task in and of itself that took far longer than needed and caused me quite a bit of stress. There are more details to that interaction but I think that sums it up sufficiently. The 2nd interaction was for a closing that was supposed to happen this past Friday at 4PM. The closing was cancelled because the end buyer was unable to make it to closing earlier in the day. I wasn't informed until 3:13 PM by email (the majority of interactions up to that point had been text). I, and two other parties to the transaction were already on the road at that point since it is about an hour drive away for both of us. I didn't receive a text, or a phone call between 3:13 when he sent that email and 4:00 when the three of us showed up to his office and were informed that Lee was not even at the office, and had not been there all day. It would have taken less than 30 seconds to send a text or try to make a call, I was already on the road when that email was sent. The lack of professionalism was infuriating. As the person who had brokered the majority of the deal, to show up and have to look the sellers in the eye without a clue of what was going on and why the attorney was not present for the closing was one of the most embarrassing moments of my life. I had to sit there and take responsibility for a situation that I had no idea about what was happening, and at that point in the office we called him and instead of taking responsibility for not calling, texting or keeping us in the loop he said "its out of my control". I get that things happen but the lack of effort on his end as the attorney in the transaction was unprofessional, and arguably totally incompetent. He may not have been able to control the whole thing but he could have made a far greater effort to ensure that we knew it was cancelled, and why it was cancelled. Instead we showed up to his office where he was nowhere to be found, call him for an attempt an getting an explanation, and be told "its out of my hands". I have been to many closings and never have I been a part of such an incompetent transaction. I have voiced my dissatisfaction with Lee already, this is an attempt to save anyone considering using him as an attorney some pain.
