Personal injury lawyers in Highland, Indiana

"When you pay for an attorney, you expect consistent communication. Unfortunately, that wasn’t my experience with Attorney Burt. He relied strictly on email, which can be fine — if you check it constantly. My husband and I both work full-time, so his follow-up message requesting additional initials and a signature went unnoticed in a crowded inbox. For over a month and a half, he never called to check in or confirm whether we had completed the paperwork. We assumed the case was finalized since payment was made in full and even the other party believed it was settled after turning in the first round of signatures. Then, we received a mailed notice stating he had withdrawn as our counsel. When I called him for clarification, he immediately said he’d “done all he could.” Ironically, once we talked, the issue was resolved in five minutes and resigned everything. It was in his mailbox within 48 hours. A single phone call two months earlier could have prevented all of this. I’m not leaving this review to be rude — just to caution others. We take responsibility for missing the email, but I expected a bit more proactive communication. I’m giving a fair rating because the case was ultimately resolved, but I hope this helps others avoid the same confusion."

"Attorney Padove was incredibly thorough and patient throughout the entire process. He prepared both a will and a power of attorney for my mother-in-law, explaining every detail clearly so we understood all of our options. His professionalism and care gave our family real peace of mind. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing estate planning services."

"Burton helped me with my divorce, he was very nice to work with and had very fast communication. I thought this divorce would be quick and easy but my ex proved otherwise, Burton helped to reassure me with every curveball he threw towards me. I appreciate everything he did for me and I'm excited to start my new life. - Thanks again!"

"Burton is a life saver. Recently purchased a home in Illinois as a first time homebuyer. We were dealing with a few difficulties with the sellers but Burton had our back! He’s very knowledgeable with his 40 years of experience and had answers to all of our questions. He reviewed all documents and translated pages and pages of documents into normal people language! He was easily accessible through email and phone calls, which fit my busy work schedule. He was always sure to keep us in the loop of what was going on with our purchase. He even went above and beyond to find a great inspector that found issues with the house we were purchasing that the sellers didn’t notice. I will forever recommend Burton to all my friends purchasing homes because Burton really amazed us!! He did all the hard work and saved us the headaches and stress. Thank you so much Burton!!! You’re amazing!!!"

"We had a great experience with Mr. Padove. We came to him looking to do a stepparent adoption and as of today everything is finalized. He’s a very nice person who is patient and very easy to work with. He also keeps you updated every step of the way. He also does wills so we will definitely be repeat clients for when that time comes in the near future. Thank you again so much for all of your hard work and making this happen for our family."
