Helton & Fultz, LLC - Cartersville (GA)

5 /5 Linda Brunell: When the finally decided to do my will I was terrified of the process. I decided to go to Helton & Fultz after doing my research. Shep greeted me and we started the process. He made everything so clear and easy. He understood my needs and prepared the documents perfectly. If I had known how easy it would be I would have done it long ago. I highly recommend Shep and his firm. Simple, easy for a great price. Don’t delay call them today.

5 /5 r mcclendon: My recent experience with Helton & Flutz was nothing short of excellent, easily earning them a well-deserved five-star rating! From the moment I first interacted with them, several key factors stood out. Their online presence, particularly their clear and concise website, made the initial process seamless. I appreciated the no-pressure option for requesting a consultation online, which was followed by a very timely response. Scheduling was incredibly easy, and their services proved to be both affordable and genuinely easy to work with. A true highlight was working with Shep. His extensive knowledge was immediately apparent, and we particularly valued his honest opinion and his skill in presenting information clearly. Shep fostered an easy and relaxed atmosphere throughout, proving himself to be friendly, attentive, and incredibly likable. The efficiency and friendliness extended to his entire team, who were consistently responsive and efficient. For anyone seeking top-notch service, I wholeheartedly recommend Shep and the dedicated team at Helton & Flutz!

1 /5 Jackson Joel: The woman at the front desk was unbelievably rude from the moment I walked in. She acted like answering a simple question was a huge inconvenience and spoke to me with a tone that was completely unprofessional. It set a terrible tone for the entire experience, and I won’t be returning.

1 /5 Joseph Holmes: I want to share my personal experience to help others protect their elderly family members when doing will or trust planning. My grandmother was 91 years old and had worked for the City of Cartersville, GA for over 30 years. She only knew attorney Helton who prepared her will and trust for approximately 6–9 months before she passed away. This attorney named himself: • Sole beneficiary of her Edward Jones account (over $1 million) • Medical proxy • Executor of her will The majority of these assets were left to grandmother from my Uncle who passed away almost two years prior to the day. My uncle never knew Attorney Helton and would have never left his life savings as Union Carpenter to. Attorney Shep Helton also serves on the boards of at least two organizations listed in her will. All family members were removed from the will during this process. I was never in the will and never wanted anything — only some family photos. The day after my grandmothers funeral at Parnick and Jenningss Funeral Home Attorney Shep Helton broke into my grandmother’s home, going through her personal belongings, claiming to be looking for the will (which he already had in his possession). I contacted the Bartow County Sheriff’s Department, who came to the property and removed him from the property. I have video footage of this incident, Ring Camera and also body cam footage from Bartow County Sheriffs. Attorney Shep Helton used this time to speak with the deputies about his new truck. Please see listed pictures of Shep Helton entering and inside my grandmothers home the day after her funeral. Multiple independent attorneys I spoke with afterwards said they personally would never put themselves in these positions due to the conflict of interest, and expressed that the conduct appeared highly unethical. My takeaway: When doing estate planning with elderly loved ones, have multiple trusted family members or neutral third parties involved. Make sure all documents are reviewed by an independent attorney. Elderly individuals can be vulnerable to undue influence — even from professionals in positions of trust.

5 /5 P: I highly recommend doing business with Mr. Helton at Helton & Fultz. Mr. Helton helped us carefully plan our estate in a smooth and detailed manner, using his extensive experience in the matter. He is knowledgeable, calm, and excellent at what he does. He deserves 100 stars out of 5 stars.
