About Wayne R. Coulter

Wayne Coulter is an incredibly knowledgeable and personable Estate Planning lawyer. He explained everything about Wills and other Estate Plan documents in language we understood. When we had questions, he provided a timely and detailed response. The entire office is highly efficient, courteous, and pleasant which made the whole process and changes very easy. If we could give this office more than 5 Stars... we would!

Because of my and my family's previous experiences, I became fearful of attorneys. That's why when my father passed away, I tried to handle his "estate" which is/was nothing, on my own, without an attorney, due to that fear and a lack of money. I learned, no matter the situation, YOU NEED an attorney! I am thrilled to share that "the needle in the haystack" has been found, Delzer, Coulter & Bell! Attorney Coulter and his wonderful assistant, Stephanie, treated me with such kindness and patience and answered all of my questions and helped me more than you can imagine! For over two months, I wasn't able to sleep, eat, and was a stuttering nervous wreck. Attorney Coulter advised me of what my responsibilities were and what were NOT and gave me peace of mind. Don't put your loved ones through the nightmare I went through;call Attorney Coulter who TRULY has your best interest at heart

Finally, an attorney with a heart. We were drifting amid a lack of knowledge and misinformation on how to handle probate court. Mr Coulter was able to able us immediately and provided all the information we needed to be able to close my daughter's estate.

I am not a Florida resident, and I needed some direction regarding a probate matter in Pasco County. I searched online and found the firm of Delzer, Coulter & Bell. When I called their office, Attorney Wayne Coulter answered the phone and proceeded to spend 20 minutes answering my questions. He was polite, professional and extremely knowledgeable. I also needed to call him a second time, and he was kind enough to further advise me. Attorney Coulter was also honest in telling me that my particular situation did not require the retention of a lawyer. His guidance gave me a far better understanding of my situation and enabled me to move forward in a confident manner. It speaks volumes that Attorney Coulter treated me—a non-client—with such patience and respect. I can only imagine how he would treat someone for whom he represents.
