Avoid Bernie Lord at all costs! My father was put in hospice care with only a couple of weeks to live. During that time, I reached out to Bernie Lord MULTIPLE, MULTIPLE times to obtain power of attorney documents that my father had completed with him years back. Even after leaving detailed messages, and explaining the acute attention needed given the situation, he never made it a priority to reach me. My guess? He chalked this up as a pesky administrative task, and since there would be no money rolling into him, dismissed it completely. Classless. Don’t waste your time or energy with him. And don’t expect your phone calls to be returned.
