  Mr. Hatchell represented me recently, and any review under 5 stars is boggling to me. He and his team are well-coordinated and always bring their best.

  Today, I called to inquire about services and costs for my mother-in-law, who resides in Chase City. During the conversation, I was told that “nobody needs a trust in Chase City,” which I found offensive. As an African American with a doctoral degree and a comprehensive estate plan that includes a will, trust, and living will at the age of 41, this assumption was particularly disheartening. It is important to note that not all Black individuals are uneducated or lack financial resources. I was seeking to establish a revocable trust, a will, and a power of attorney. However, I was informed that revocable trusts are not offered at this location. This is crucial because such a trust helps protect assets from probate. Essentially, if you have significant assets and wealth and you are of African descent, it seems you are only offered basic services such as a living will and a power of attorney. This experience was frustrating and indicative of a deeper issue of stereotyping and unequal service offerings based on assumptions about race and socioeconomic status. It is imperative that all individuals, regardless of background, have access to the full range of estate planning services to protect their assets and provide for their families. After leaving my review, the firm contacted me. The representative expressed sincere regret for the situation that occurred the previous day and offered an apology. While first impressions are important as a business owner, I believe in giving second chances. During our follow-up conversation, I appreciated the proactive approach in suggesting who could be used for the services that I needed. The office has since clarified that they do not offer trust services, and this misleading information has been removed from their website. I am pleased that my feedback contributed to this clarification for the practice. Additionally, the firm offers a range of other services that may be beneficial based on individual needs.

  Recently retired and transplanted from Richmond, without access to my established attorney, I engaged small town Josh Hatchell out of necessity but was delighted to discover he is not only as competent as the big city boys, he excels at guiding his client through his cultural milieu. I highly recommend Attorney Josh Hatchell to other transplants to the charming environment that - precisely because it is different - may require assistance.

  Really great Law Firm here!! Jalene was such a great help and so cheerful when we used Hatchell law to close on a couple properties in Chase City. I would highly recommend if you are needing any real estate services or law services to definitely give them a call. They will serve you well.
