Emily was very helpful with an estate question that I had. She took the time to listen and responded in a timely, helpful and professional way. I will not hesitate to hire Ms. Weatherford in the future, should the need arise.

Emily helped us create and update our Estate Plan consistent with NC Law. She was extremely knowledgeable, very professional and great to work with. We would strongly recommend her services to others.

Emily guided us through the process of our wills and estate planning, something we had not done for years, despite knowing that we should. She answered all our questions thoughtfully and honestly, giving opinions when asked and guiding us through the decision-making process. We felt very comfortable that we were getting good advice and the process was easy.

I had a very complicated and contested Estate and Trust situation. Emily was very careful to keep me informed and was clear in what was best for all involved. I am very thankful for her guidance and advice. In the past I have also used her services for some guardianship needs. With her help these were settled quickly and without incident.

Ms Emily Weatherford of Kratt Dedmond & Associates was not the first to handle my estate planning but she brought a clarity and care to the process I had not before experienced. Not only was she able to explain multiple options so their benefits and limitations were apparent, as well as answer any questions I had, she was also able to present the larger picture with regard to my particular circumstances. She asked the right questions and grasped what was needed, then came up with more than one suggestion which we then considered together. I honestly didn’t know this often difficult to contemplate job of working through powers of attorney both regular and health, and setting up a will, could be done with understanding and excellent communication to accompany legal expertise. Ms Weatherford possesses all of these attributes and I would highly recommend her services as an attorney. I would also commend those working with her who arranged the accompanying paperwork in a timely and efficient manner.

Emily helped bring my mother's estate to closure. The fact that I moved to France shortly after hiring her certainly made her job more complicated. My mother had a will in which she left everything to my sister and me. Unfortunately, my sister died intestate a few months after our mother, and her children were slow to open her estate. When I engaged Emily's services, I had already opened my mother's estate and filed a preliminary inventory, published the notice to creditors, and paid those creditors that came forward. I was not prepared to deal with the impact that my sister's lack of a will had on c.losing our mother' estate, though As a result, there were some things Emily had to follow up on, as well as filing an amended and a final inventory. Emily brought thing to a close and I was quite satisfied.

This person was in no way a zealous advocate, she failed to grasp facts, failed to even put forth a coherent case, she wasted my time and most definitely my money. Worse, she failed to gain anything whatsoever to improve the quality of life for my mother. Emily Weatherford was googlyeyed and in awe of the counsel hired by the "other side" and she kept telling me how thrilled she was that he was their attorney. Don't waste your money and time. I wish I had never met her, never been referred to her. I would have been better off without a lawyer.
