I found John Hilla to be very honest, trustworthy and supportive throughout my chapter 7 process. The process went smoothly because of John's diligence and attention to detail. He did everything he said he would. Response time to messages was great. I highly recommend John Hilla.

John Hilla is one of the very best attorneys I have ever engaged. Actually, John was outstanding through out the difficult process of filing a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy. He was always available within hours of receiving a message. I found that to be amazing. He was very professional, well organized, accurate, timely and most kind. I engaged his services in August of 2013 and the Bankruptcy was completed on February 11, 2014. There were no unnecessary delays as John was right on top of everything. I would most definitely recommend him to any one who may need help with a bankruptcy. Thanks John, I appreciate how helpful and kind you were.

He is the best. I loved working with him, he's great in a time of crisis in a persons life that bankruptcy is.

John Hilla is the absolute best! He drove many, many miles at his expense to meet with me each and every time he needed to meet with me, he was in constant contact with me, kept me informed all the way, and has a degree of follow-up that is unmeasurable. Everything he did for me was outstanding. I could not have made a better choice than to hire John Hilla to handle my legal issue. He is very knowledgeable, professional, and takes his time to explain everything in detail. Every time you have a question, he will answer it promptly and honestly. If you can even top all that, what he charges is more than reasonable. You simply can't go wrong with John Hilla.

John Hill did exactly what he said he would do for the fees discussed. He was prompt, courteous and professional. I highly recommend him if you are faced with bankruptcy.

First of all, the idea that he's a karate fanatic makes me believe he's dangerous in the worst way. His internet ads and go-daddy website make it seem like he is a family law firm, it's just him and his small, cluttered office and, on some occasions, a temp secretary. From then on it's a very bad joke. For instance, he promises to return unused fees but after a few weeks of not showing for hearings and/or getting dates and/or times confused and/or missing filing dates and/or anything for which he was paid he begins to shake you down for more fees to undo the damage he has caused. And try to get a hold of him! Oh, he'll have an excuse why he didn't show for court or missed an important filing, etc, very interesting and passionate of course. He uses profanity constantly and derogatory terms to describe other lawyers, judges and referees, even clients, that would get him censured but he believes that he has covered himself by saying he'll lie about you to the judge or ref and threatens to make all kinds of trouble if you mention anything about his conversations. But do you want to know the worst part? Menders just doesn't seem to know the law or legal processes to get things done properly even if he wanted to. Trust me, though, the financial shake down will start very soon after retention. He can pretend to be all high and mighty and knowing and compassionate all he wants, truth is he's a miserable person and an inept lawyer.

As another "dispossessed" woman in Michigan, Mr. Hilla was very kind, trusting and empathetic to my situation. I felt I was his only client. He came all the way to Bay City to represent me and was very gracious. All my questions were answered promptly and his follow-up was immediate on anything that came through the Court. He is a very conscientious attorney and considerate of his client's needs. Very, very worth the money ! I can't thank him enough.

We used Mr.Hilla's services and were more than satisfied with the outcome. Since our bancruptcy, some minor issues have come up and John was very prompt in answering our questions and helping us with sound advice.

I worked with Mr. Hilla and his law firm to create my will, power of attorney and living will. I was extremely pleased with Mr. Hilla's professionalism. He answered all of my questions, and completed the work in a very reasonable amount of time. I found his prices to be very competitive, too. I would recommend the Hilla Law Firm to a friend. Truly worth your time and money. Thank you!

John is the kind of lawyer you want in difficult & stressful times, which is often the case with his firm's specialties. He is not only extremely knowledgeable about the legal code & case studies, just as importantly he is able to translate this knowledge in a way that makes it easy to understand. He is an advocate in the true sense of the word, working hard - and efficiently - fighting for his clients to the best of his ability. He listens, he learns about your situation & needs, and he gives his honest professional opinion of what will be in your best interest. Finally, he's an all-around pleasant person to talk to. I absolutely recommend him!

Robert Menders is unprofessional, unethical and incompetent.
