Swindell Law Firm

The buyers of our house use this law firm as their representative. This firm screwed up completing the closing. They failed to mail a closing check to me at an address that was provided a minimum of three different times in the closing documents. Their excuse was they’ve never had to fill out an address using a street address and a PO Box before.. I would give a tremendous amount of thought about using a firm that can’t even successfully mail a checkTo address that was provided three different times. I’m assuming the review will have my email address please reach out and I would be glad to explain the situation to anyone that cares to hear. 19 days and counting for them to successfully mail a letter. I can’t believe I had to get my realtor and an attorney To get them to successfully complete the closing transaction. Eventually, after numerous attempts to get them to transfer the funds, they actually. had to get up and drive themselves to my bank and deposit the funds in my account. I guess they also didn’t trust themselves with the US Postal Service and the taxing mental hoops that have to be jump through to actually successfully mail an envelope. again, I believe the majority of this was due to the attorneys Secretary however, it’s his firm and it represents him ultimately. Of course this is all just my opinion.

This attorney's office does not respond to voicemail or email. I am trying to get a closing done. I have never had this experience with an attorney's office in my 12 years selling real estate and have never had to leave a bad review in hopes to get a response. I asked Janet (the one time I got her on the phone by calling back to back) if they are too busy, I can send this to another attorney's office. She said they can do it and she was working on it Monday 6/3/24. She still is not responding and I have nothing to tell my sellers regarding if their home is closing or not this week!! This makes me look bad as the agent suggesting a local attorney since I prefer to support local small business. This also breaches the buyers contract stating close within 7 days of tenant vacating. I would not suggest using their services!

I have used Frank Swindell's office for closings and other matters for several years. Mr. Swindell and his staff are knowledgeable and efficient. I highly recommend him.

EXCELLENT law firm. Frank Swindell is 100% top notch. They deserve 10 stars. He made my closing so easy and not a single problem arose. Anyone that says otherwise does not actually know him. I recommend his firm as the MOST honest you will find!

AVOID AT ALL COST! This man missed every deadline, prolonged my closing two months. Cost me a higher interest rate and didn't have the professional courtesy to apologize. My agent still wanted to use him after I advised that we find another closing attorney. I used him the second time at my agents request, and Swindell could not complete the necessary documents required and asked my agent to get me to do it. To add insult to injury, he gave me a check that Bank of America wouldn't accept. A thief and a lier are the two best words to describe this man. Avoid his firm!
