Hired Attorney

John Mizell has been our attorney for 30+ years. In our opinion there is no better in this profession. He has all of the professional abilities (he has provided the services of both trust & estate and real estate)one would hope for but above that he is the most humble, kind, and helpful individual in a profession where unfortunately this appears to be lacking. He genuinely cares for us and any issue we have presented to him.
