Our Principles

We are committed to providing a spectrum of probate, estate and special needs planning and estate administration services that are: High Quality, Affordable, Responsive, Compassionate and sensitive to the needs of clients in Greenville and nearby counties.

High Quality Services

Provided by advancing client interests vigorously within the limits of the law while never compromising the client’s reputation or the firm’s integrity.

Affordable Services  

Provided by offering our clients a variety of services at an exceptional value. We don't cut corners. You'll get quality legal representation at an affordable cost.

Responsive Services

Provided by giving sound counsel and straight talk on legal issues while keeping the client fully informed about the status of their case in a timely manner.

Compassionate Services

Provided by exhibiting an understanding that physical and cognitive infirmities of loved ones and grief can bring stress and uncertainty into clients’ lives.

Our Services

Renee L. Tedrick provides personal and conscientious legal representation in the following areas:

Estate
Planning

We offer a broad range of estate planning services, including wills, trusts and powers of attorney. However, there is more to estate planning than the aforementioned services. We ensure that our client's long-range plans are addressed with their unique needs in mind, whether the needs are simple or complex. We provide advice on estate planning techniques that can be used not only upon death but during your lifetime to enable wealth to pass to your intended beneficiaries in the most tax efficient manner possible.

Estate
Administration

The emotional trauma brought on by the death of a family member often is accompanied by bewilderment about the financial and legal steps the survivors must take. These responsibilities ultimately fall on the appointed personal representative in the deceased family member's will and matters can be more complicated in the absence of a will. By retaining our services to assist with the administration process, you can focus on your individual and family needs during a time of grief, rather than forms and red tape. You will benefit from our knowledge and understanding of the probate process.

Guardianships & Conservatorships

Occasionally it becomes necessary to seek authority to make healthcare & financial decisions for loved ones who are unable to do so for themselves. Adults with disabilities caused by accidents, congenital illnesses, dementia or Alzheimer’s disease often require the assistance of a court appointed and supervised guardian and conservator. Additionally, minors who inherit funds without appropriate planning require a conservatorship. We are knowledgeable regarding these processes and consider it an honor to work with families requiring these services.
