I was the personal representative of my mothers estate. She owned a property in *************, ***, She owed no money on the house. The probate attorney I hired told me that if I didnt sell the property to his colleague, he would quit. He quit and I sold it for over one million dollars to someone that wasnt going to rip me off. So I had to hire another attorney. Probate Advance agreed to give me 50k for 90k. What they did was give me ****** and I would get the remaining ****** once I had another attorney. Then I discovered the attorneys all wanted 50k up front and I couldnt hire an attorney and I was removed as administrator because I didnt have an attorney and I didnt get the remaining ******. I had no idea that they knew I would need 50k. I have a higher rate to pay back then everybody else. That is discrimination. Probate attorneys are compensated thru the assignment. They inform of the value of an estate and control how long the case will take. And they use ****************** to hold the Estate Account. It is a Japanese owned bank. This is theft. No oversight thats why its not considered a loan. Its run by crooked lawyers. Go to a ****************** and try to open an estate account without an attorney. It wont happen.Review from Alex R

This company has designed its marketing letter to be as deceptive as possible. Its external appearance -- the block caps text warning of a fine or imprisonment, etc. -- is clearly intended to fool the recipient into believing that the sender is a government entity. In reality it's just a sleazy company using unsolicited advertising mailers to hawk its product.

Probate Advance does not make any false statements in its correspondence with potential customers, including that the sender is a government entity. Consistent with our practice of promptly removing any consumer from our mailing lists upon request, we removed ******************* from any future mailing distribution lists. Unfortunately, any correspondence received by ***** after their posted review was already in process and could not be intercepted.Review from Luv R

These people are VULTURES! For FIVE years now they have consistently tried to make a profit off my brother's death and have ignored ALL responses to take me off of their mailing and emailing lists, effectively solidifying their place in judgement hell: they are VULTURES. I'd give a 0 review if I could but BBB won't allow it.Probate Advance LLC Response

Luv Rite states they have received marketing materials from Probate Advance for the past five years. We regret any inconvenience to Luv Rite. Probate Advance relies on public probate documents to reach consumers, and its customers are never under any duress to do business with Probate Advance. Consistent with our practice of promptly removing any consumer from our mailing lists upon request, we will remove Luv Rite from any future mailing distribution lists. Unfortunately, we are unable to locate ******** or family related members in our records. We will promptly remove them from any future correspondence in the event they follow up with us.Review from Dale Y

I have been receiving mail from this company at least weekly, since February 2024. It's now July 2024.My father passed and there was no probate. I've received my inheritance. I've called several times and emailed them, asking to be taken off their mailing list. I'm told they see I'm on the do not mail list and they'll stop sending letters, but it doesn't stop.It's like a kick in the gut every time I receive one of these letters. How does the BBB give these predators an A+ rating???This company charges high fees to those who do use their services. Why can't this predatory company be shut down? They're making a profit off of people who are grieving and will NOT stop sending letters, no matter how many times you ask them to cease and desist!Probate Advance LLC Response

We regret that ******************** is not interested in Probate Advances services. Probate Advance offers an opportunity for beneficiaries to receive a portion of their inheritance months in advance, while we wait until the inheritance proceeds are distributed by the estate. Customers are never under any duress to do business with Probate Advance.Review from Sarah J

How in the world does this get an A+ rating from the BBB when it's a business to make money off of people's inheritance??? I am disgusted that I received this mail from them. Please don't use them. I would like to choose zero stars, but it's making me choose 1 so I can post a review.Probate Advance LLC Response

We have been getting unwanted mail from this company for months. I just sent my second email to have us removed from their mailing list. On one day, we received FOUR pieces of mail from this ignorant company. They are claiming that our inheritance money is held up in probate. Clearly, they have NO CLUE what they are talking about. The property is NOT in probate. In fact, the property has SOLD & CLOSED months ago & we received our inheritance money months ago. What a waste of paper!!Probate Advance LLC Response

I regret taking advances and they continue to email me regarding taking another one. Im so angry and disgusted with your company, I dont know how to express myself. I agree you should be entitled to the amount that I borrowed but the fees are excessive. Im not going to get anything from my disbursement when it comes because the company will taking be taking about 100%. Please dont apologize. I wish for you to charge 20% Im a disabled veteran and unemployed and it feels like your trying to kill me, and you have been predatory as well. You told me I couldnt even get a small advance. you keep emailing me and mail to get an advance. I feel for this sham!Probate Advance LLC Response
