I signed up for legalshield. I was referred to Michelle Watson who took care of my problem and showed true concern for my situation. I don't often have a need for a lawyer but in this case signing up for LegalShield was the best thing I ever did. Dsk law and Michelle Watson are awesome. Thank you so much for your help and referring me to another attorney in Utah to handle my inquiry. You guys are the best and LegalShield is well worth the monthly fee. Thank you thank you thank you so much

Colin was such a breath of fresh air that I had to share it with the community. She understands that people don't call their attorney just to tell them how great their day is going. She has a very soothing voice and infinite patience that are backed up by top notch intelligence. In other words, if she answers the phone when you call, you hit the jackpot! Thank you again Colin! Hopefully they will teach others to be like you or put you in a position to train others to be like you because you definitely raise the bar at the intake level.

Regarding a matter that involves a family cabin that was taken into consideration during the process of estate planning, Morgan Legal Group did a wonderful job with the case to deal with the situation. Furthermore, they consistently demonstrated a high level of sensitivity towards any queries or concerns that were brought up during the process. From the very beginning to the very finish of whatever was being done, this ensured that everything went off without a hitch and that everything occurred without any problems.

During the process of estate planning, Andrew did an excellent job of leading us through each phase of the process. He accomplished this by walking us through the process step by step. Not only was he extraordinarily comprehensive and well-organized, but he was also able to explain everything in a way that ensured it was easy to comprehend. He was a master of communication. I found this to be a very beneficial resource for those persons who had no prior experience working in the legal sector.

He listened carefully to every detail of my case, no matter how small, and made me feel heard and understood. The advice he gave was exactly what I needed to get back on the right path. His professionalism, dedication, and compassion are unmatched. If you’re looking for someone who truly cares about your case and will fight for the best outcome, Abdin is the lawyer you need.

As someone who recently went through the immigration process, I can say that hiring lawyer Emel Ersan was one of the best decisions I made. She basically saved me a lot of money and time. Definitely the best immigration lawyer! After many consultations with other lawyers we found out Emel Ersan. Unlike the others she was so confident, made this process easy and stress free and the most important thing I am extremely satisfied with the results. I highly recommend her for anyone in need of immigration legal services.

My wife and I had a horrible experience using this law firm to prepare legal documents for us prior to our marriage. Their drafts are extremely sloppy with inaccurate data and misspellings all over the place. They likely offshore the preparation work because honestly who would misspell "Home Depot" or the name "Michael" multiple times in a legal document (and where is the review by a paralegal???). The most ridiculous part is they charge the clients for revisions to these careless mistakes. Sorry, but why are WE paying for YOUR mistakes??!?!? After our legal documents were finalized we had to chase them around to get a refund of the retainer. Again they charged us for the time it took for them to email us back (again why are WE paying for YOUR internal issues?). FINALLY after 3 months of the documents being finalized we got the final refund and we are at the point where we don't even want to bother arguing with them over the frivolous charges. We don't mind paying for high quality service, but their lack of quality and difficultly to deal with doesn't justify any price. STAY AWAY and watch your invoices because they will ROB you blind. Questionable business practices and lawyers.

What can I say about Michael Hoffman and his firm Hoffman, Larin & Agnetti that hasn’t already been said! Michael Hoffman is the absolute best and I cannot thank him enough for literally giving me a fresh new start. I never thought I would ever be in bankruptcy but I suddenly found myself overwhelmed by debt in a case with complex circumstances. Mr. Hoffman’s vast knowledge and experience, his legal expertise, professional ethics, wise guidance and his extraordinary work; got me through a very difficult stressful process with resounding success. I greatly appreciate Mr. Hoffman’s honest advice, diligent effort, and patience. From the very beginning, Mr Hoffman fully explained the bankruptcy process and from the moment I first met with him and his Team, I was confident I had made the right decision in choosing Hoffman, Larin & Agnetti P.A. for my case. I was referred to Mr. Hoffman who has an excellent staff and his assistants Kristen and Caroline are extremely attentive and professional at all times. Their kind patience and support were also key in helping me navigate the process. I’m fully confident you’ll always be in the best hands with Michael Hoffman and his firm, 100% recommended. The best!

Over a four-year period of unfortunate incidents, we found ourselves being swallowed by our overwhelming finances. We never wanted to have to resort to filing bankruptcy. It wasn’t something we wanted to do, but it was inevitable. Sometimes bad things happen to good people. Two different attorneys affiliated with my brother’s firm recommended Michael Hoffman and said he was the best bankruptcy attorney in South Florida. From my first call to Michael I knew he was a consummate professional with an excellent knowledge of the federal bankruptcy laws and the Florida statutes as it relates to them. He was accessible, professional, patient, and advisory. When we met with Michael in person he explained the process and took the time to answer all our questions, and concerns. The plan to file Chapter 13 was realized and the process began. Going forward Michael, and his staff were available to assist us with any question related to the documents they required from us, so they could prepare the petition to the bankruptcy court. Once Michael filed with the court, about a month later we went before the Trustee, accompanied by Michael, and all went as Michael had described. Recently we received notice our Chapter 13 has been accepted by the court. Since receiving that news, we feel like we can breathe again, free from the worry and uncertainty of our financial future. This all happened without a glitch thanks to Michael’s professionalism and expertise, along with his qualified staff. He knows the court system and how this works. He didn’t let us down. I find him trustworthy, competent, and as his referrers stated, the best bankruptcy attorney in South Florida.

Michael Hoffman’s legal expertise and strategical intelligence gave me my life back. I never thought I would ever have to file bankruptcy – especially at my age, but after a few bad business decisions, there was no other option. Michael Hoffman made this extremely difficult time in my life more palatable. His team was extremely competent and thorough and walked me through the entire process. The amazing part of this is that another attorney tried instilling fear in me about my financial situation and told me that certain things couldn’t be done. A friend of mine connected me with Michael Hoffman and after talking with him, I fired the other attorney. Michael was able to make all the things the other attorney said couldn’t happen come to fruition. Through this situation I learned that you must hire an attorney that specializes in his craft – they are not all created equally. Michael Hoffman is hands down the best.

My wife Cynthia and Me were frightened and devastated when our brokerage firm after having lost 1.5 million dollars of our retirement savings over the course of a year and a half phoned to say we should liquid our portfolio. Fortuitously, we googled " The Best Stock Broker Negligence Lawyer in Florida." JEFF EREZ'S name appeared at the top of a list of attorneys. While at dinner I sent an email to Jeff Erez. Within seconds he responded. I am a retired personal injury litigation attorney with more than 45 years of experience. I knew within 15 minutes of our conversation that Jeff was an extraordinary and highly skilled litigator. His analysis and legal advice was cogent, concise and as it turned out legally correct. Within days my wife and me met Jeff and his team. We retained his firm to pursue our case. Our pleadings, discovery, and motions to compel evidence were emailed to me. They were works of legal excellence. Jeff also emailed copies of responses. It was obvious to me Jeff's talent, skill, work ethic and experience were vastly superior to the defense team's work product. Predictably within less than a year our case settled at mediation for a significant amount of money. Without reservation or qualification I recommend Jeff Erez and his team to any person who has suffered financial losses from unsuitable decisions made by their money manager or broker. My wife and me after having been victimized are restored to retirement security. Many thanks and appreciation to Jeff Erez and his team.

When my husband and I first came to this law, we were so nervous to say the least, we had never done this before. His paralegal, Lorena made us feel so comfortable. Her knowledge is superb and her level of professionalism is outstanding!!! She explained everything to us in a very kind way. Every step we took, after the first consultation, was explained to us very clearly. Every time I had a question I would call the office and Lorena, very patiently would explain everything. Our experience with the lawyer, the paralegal and the other office personnel was and has been EXCEPTIONAL!!! I would highly recommend the law office of Robert Stiberman!

I recently had a great experience with Mr. Bilu or Bilu and Bilu Law firm. I would like to thank him and share with you my good experience. Mr. Bilu is a very knowledgeable and experience attorney with an outstanding reputation. It was clear early on in my working with him that ultimately everything would work out well for me and my situation and it did. He was actually able to get more then I had anticipated. He also was prompt in returning my calls or emails when I had a question or concern. This was important to me. In addition, his staff was very helpful and professional though the entire process. I would recommend and have recommended Geil Bilu and should a need arise, call on him again.

We hired Mr. Bilu to help us get out of a contract with a large custom homes builder. We had entered into a purchase contract with this homes builder about a year ago. As required, we had put down a large deposit. The home was built and it was time to go to closing. However, we has still not sold our current home. Therefore, the builder wanted to cancel the purchase agreement and keep our deposit. We did not have a contingency but we did have a VA Addendum with the builder. Mr. Bilu communicated with the builder on our behalf. He was able to obtain our deposit back from the builder. At first, I was a little hesitant to work with Mr. Bilu merely because he was going on vacation. However, he maintained open communication with me regarding the updates provided from the builder's attorney. I was very pleased that he would take the time to answer my emails promptly during his vacation. Mr. Bilu was direct and made everything simple. Thank you! Also, for the record we had consulted another attorney regarding the same case before Mr. Bilu and we were not happy since he didn't really take time to even take a look at our "case". He dismissed us saying that the builder had the right to keep our deposit even though we had an addendum that clearly stated the builder could not keep it.

He responded to my initial question but then I had another question and asked about pricing and I never heard from him again. I will just have to shop around and make phone calls rather than send emails when I have the time.

READ THIS AND CHECK OTHER REVIEWS.. FIND SOMEONE ELSE. I hired this attorney back in July 2024 on a case against a car dealership and since then I have not been able to get any communication back from him or his office regarding the status of this case. In fact, the last I heard from him was October in which he states he will get back with me on an update. Many many phone calls and messages left for him and many many unanswered emails later i have heard not one word back. I paid his fee in full when I hired him and now am left with no result. I will be getting with the Florida Bar and submitting a complaint there also.

Prior to filing for Chapter 7 I spoke with several attorneys about my case. Juan stood out immediately as the most responsive to my concerns, well organized in operations, and able to describe a clear path to results. There is a lot of paperwork involved in the process so Juan was able to adapt to the details of my case and help ensure that the preparation was productive, quick, and that the results were high quality. Before the meeting with the creditors he prepared me and ensured that I can be successful during the event. We recently brought my Chapter 7 to the desired outcome. I would happily recommend Juan to anyone interested in filing for bankruptcy.

During what was undoubtedly one of the most challenging times in our lives, Diego and his father Jeff Weiner, proved to be invaluable support. The father-son duo handled the proceedings with empathy and grace. Diego, was thorough in his approach, making sure we, as a family, understood all of our options. His genuine care and empathy made a significant difference in our experience. He was very straightforward about the possible outcomes and never gave us any false hope which was helpful to us. The staff was also courteous and prompt in their responses, which made the whole stressful process much more bearable. This firm exuded professionalism and timely communication which helped alleviate our stress in this emotional process.

I've just lost my business and everything else, and yesterday my car that was free and clear got taken away by the sheriff due to a writ of execution for a credit car debt. I called a lot of attorneys, and they all said pretty much that couldn't get my car back, that filing bankruptcy will not help to get it back. Most of the conversations were handle by the paralegals and very few attorneys themselves will take the time to talk to me. When I called Mr. Bigge's law firm I left a message, within an hour Mrs. Rodriguez, Bigge's partner return my call. She really listened to me, was very honest, compassionate and showed me their law firm is really there to help. She helped me and made calls in my behalf with out even knowing me, called me back several times to mantain me informed, until Mr. Bigge was able to call me. When I spoke with Mr. Bigge, because of the emergency of my case that I was trying to get my car back, he scheduled me in the morning of the next day, even though he was booked for the day. Before I went to his office he had already talked to the plaintiff councel and could get my car back. When I met with Mr. Bigge at his office, and he started asking me questions I thought everything was so chaotic in my life, but Mr. Bigge guided me in the right direction, showed me the light and made me realize my priorities. He explain that he's not in my plan until a year from now, that really showed me he's not there to get client's money, instead that he's there for the client's best interest.

I had a consultation with Jeda and as soon as I stepped in their office they were more than welcoming. After the consultation I decided in my situation that it was best for my case to go with them. They are straight to the point but are also very friendly! I also dealt with Ron for a couple of paperwork ordeals which he made as painlessly as possible. Thanks to them I have a “restart” on life and think they were more than fair and took their time in helping me understand. Thank you!

What a Bankruptcy Lawyer Can Do for You

A bankruptcy lawyer specializes in helping individuals and businesses manage overwhelming debt by filing for bankruptcy or exploring alternatives to bankruptcy. They guide clients through the complex legal process of discharging or restructuring debts, represent them in court, and work to protect assets such as homes and cars. Bankruptcy lawyers can also help stop creditor harassment, wage garnishment, and foreclosures through bankruptcy protections.

If you're facing financial hardship, a bankruptcy lawyer can help you decide whether filing for bankruptcy is the right option and assist you through the legal process.

When Should I Hire a Bankruptcy Lawyer?

You should consider hiring a bankruptcy lawyer in the following situations:

  • Unmanageable debt: If you're unable to pay your bills and debts are piling up, a lawyer can help you explore options such as Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy.
  • Foreclosure or repossession: If your home is at risk of foreclosure or your vehicle is in danger of being repossessed, a bankruptcy lawyer can help you use bankruptcy protections to prevent this and potentially reorganize your debts.
  • Wage garnishment: If your wages are being garnished, filing for bankruptcy can stop garnishments and allow you to regain control of your finances.
  • Creditor harassment: If creditors are constantly calling or sending collection notices, a bankruptcy lawyer can stop these actions by filing for bankruptcy, which enacts an automatic stay that halts collection activities.
  • Small business debt: If your business is struggling with debt and cannot meet financial obligations, a lawyer can help you file for Chapter 11 (reorganization) or Chapter 7 (liquidation) bankruptcy.
  • Medical debt or credit card debt: If you have large amounts of unsecured debt like medical bills or credit card balances, a bankruptcy lawyer can help you seek relief through Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy.

Hiring a bankruptcy lawyer early in the process can prevent further financial damage and help you choose the best legal option for debt relief.

What Does a Bankruptcy Lawyer Do?

A bankruptcy lawyer provides a range of services to help individuals and businesses handle their debts. Their responsibilities often include:

  • Evaluating your financial situation: Assessing your income, assets, debts, and expenses to determine if bankruptcy is the right option and which type of bankruptcy (Chapter 7, Chapter 13, or Chapter 11) best suits your situation.
  • Filing bankruptcy petitions: Preparing and filing the necessary documents to initiate your bankruptcy case, ensuring that all legal requirements are met.
  • Stopping creditor harassment: Once the bankruptcy case is filed, an automatic stay is enacted, which stops creditors from pursuing collection efforts. A lawyer ensures this protection is applied immediately.
  • Representing you in court: Representing you in court proceedings, including meetings with creditors and any hearings related to your case.
  • Negotiating with creditors: In Chapter 13 or Chapter 11 bankruptcies, negotiating a repayment plan that restructures your debts and allows you to manage payments more effectively.
  • Advising on asset protection: Guiding you on how to protect certain assets, such as your home or retirement savings, through available bankruptcy exemptions.
  • Explaining the impact on your credit: Informing you about how bankruptcy will affect your credit and advising on steps to rebuild your credit post-bankruptcy.

How Are Bankruptcy Lawyers Paid?

Bankruptcy lawyers typically charge for their services in different ways depending on the complexity of the case and the type of bankruptcy being filed. Common payment structures include:

  • Flat fee: Many bankruptcy lawyers charge a flat fee for handling Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 bankruptcy cases. This fee usually covers the entire process, from preparing and filing paperwork to representing you in court.
  • Hourly rate: For more complex cases, such as Chapter 11 bankruptcy (often used by businesses), some lawyers charge an hourly rate. Hourly rates typically range from $150 to $500 or more.
  • Retainer: In cases where ongoing legal services are required, such as in Chapter 11 bankruptcies or complex Chapter 13 cases, a lawyer may request a retainer, which is an upfront payment billed against as the lawyer works on the case.

It’s important to discuss fees with your lawyer upfront, as bankruptcy law requires lawyers to disclose all fees and ensure they are reasonable and fair.

How Much Does a Bankruptcy Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a bankruptcy lawyer varies depending on the type of bankruptcy and the complexity of the case. General cost estimates include:

  • Chapter 7 bankruptcy: For individuals, legal fees usually range from $1,000 to $3,500. This flat fee generally covers the entire process.
  • Chapter 13 bankruptcy: For individuals filing Chapter 13, legal fees typically range from $2,500 to $6,000. This cost is higher because of the additional work required to create and manage the repayment plan.
  • Chapter 11 bankruptcy (for businesses): Chapter 11 bankruptcy is more complex and usually more expensive, with legal fees ranging from $10,000 to $50,000 or more, depending on the size of the business and the complexity of the debt restructuring.
  • Filing fees: In addition to legal fees, there are also court filing fees, which are $338 for Chapter 7 and $313 for Chapter 13 as of 2024.

Always ask for a detailed cost estimate during your consultation to understand what services are included and whether payment plans are available.

Top Questions to Ask a Bankruptcy Lawyer

Before hiring a bankruptcy lawyer, it’s important to ask key questions to ensure they have the experience and knowledge to handle your case effectively. Key questions to ask include:

  1. What experience do you have with bankruptcy cases?
    Ensure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, whether it's Chapter 7, Chapter 13, or Chapter 11 bankruptcy.
  2. How do you charge for your services?
    Clarify whether the lawyer charges a flat fee or hourly rate, and ask for a detailed breakdown of costs, including filing fees and additional expenses.
  3. Which type of bankruptcy is best for me?
    Ask the lawyer to explain whether Chapter 7, Chapter 13, or Chapter 11 is the best option based on your financial situation and long-term goals.
  4. What debts can be discharged?
    Ask which of your debts will be forgiven through bankruptcy and which debts (such as certain taxes or student loans) may not be dischargeable.
  5. How long will the process take?
    Bankruptcy cases can take time to resolve, so ask the lawyer how long they expect the process to last, from filing to discharge.
  6. Will I be able to keep my assets?
    Ask if you will be able to keep important assets, such as your home or car, and what exemptions might apply.
  7. What happens after bankruptcy?
    Ask about the impact of bankruptcy on your credit score and what steps you can take to rebuild your credit after the bankruptcy is finalized.

How to Check the Credibility of a Bankruptcy Lawyer

To ensure you are hiring a reputable bankruptcy lawyer, follow these steps to verify their credentials and track record:

  • Verify their bar status: Check with your state bar association to confirm that the lawyer is licensed to practice law and has no history of disciplinary actions.
  • Look for bankruptcy experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in bankruptcy law and have successfully handled cases like yours.
  • Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for client reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about the lawyer’s professionalism and ability to handle bankruptcy cases.
  • Ask for references: A reputable lawyer should be able to provide references from past clients who have worked with them on bankruptcy matters.
  • Check for certifications or memberships: Look for lawyers who are members of organizations such as the National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys (NACBA) or who have specialized bankruptcy law certifications.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To get the most out of your first consultation with a bankruptcy lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:

  • List of debts: Prepare a detailed list of all your debts, including credit cards, personal loans, medical bills, and any secured debts such as mortgages or car loans.
  • Income and expense records: Bring documents that show your current income, such as pay stubs or tax returns, and a list of your monthly expenses, including rent, utilities, and other essential costs.
  • Asset information: Provide information on any assets you own, such as your home, car, investments, or other valuable property.
  • Credit reports: If possible, bring copies of your credit reports to give the lawyer a clear view of your financial situation.
  • Questions for the lawyer: Prepare a list of questions you have about the bankruptcy process, the lawyer’s fees, and what to expect after filing for bankruptcy.

By preparing thoroughly for your consultation, you can help the lawyer assess your situation more effectively and provide the best possible legal advice tailored to your needs.
