Simply the BEST!!!

Attorney Hurley changed my life. I was looking at debt that I could never pay back. In my early 50's and over 50,000 in debt and on SSDI. How in the world did I get here??? All of that did not matter to Maegan, she never made me feel a way. All she was concerned about was getting my debts dischar...ged so that I could start fresh. People do not realize how heavy debt is on your mental state. It takes all that you have. She made the process seem so simple and let me tell you it is confusing as heck. I was going to file pro se but that all changed once I got into the thick of it. I was referred to Attorney Hurley through the VLP (Volunteer Lawyers Project). I could not believe that this was happening, I actually was going to be able to start over with the help of an amazing attorney and her firm MDRF (Mass Debt Relief Foundation). Once all the paperwork was processed and filed it was just a waiting game. Attorney Hurley was very helpful through it all. I would recommend her to everyone!!!

Maegan is beyond wonderful.

Some short back ground on me - I had been sitting on a good amount of debt for a while, I played my cards right and was working hard to pay off my debt and after a while when I had a good amount available to me I started a business with a life long friend of mine who ended up blowing everything I inv...ested and bailed 4 months later. So I was basically right where I started again debt wise and I sat on that for about a year and a half or so....so of course interest got the better of me. I did some research online and I found Maegan on Mass. Debt Relief Foundations website, I filled out the forms and she promptly got back to me via phone and email. And to be honest the first time, I blew it off because I was hell bent on " I got myself into this, I'm going to get myself out" I wanted really bad to own up to my mistakes, but I was approaching my 30th birthday and starting to not see an end to even being out of debt and I knew that for me and my wife to move forward in life I needed to hit a restart button somehow. So a few months I talked myself into calling Maegan and I will never forget that day. I almost put it off, I was leaving work and I told myself I would call on my next day off, then I said no I'm going to call today when I get home, and then when I got in my car to go home I said no....you're going to call now and I did. I live with high anxiety and depression ( a lot brought on by my debt ) so I was proud of myself even for just making that call and I am so, so glad I did. I am now about one month discharged from bankruptcy and it has changed my life. Every single thing I worried about during the whole process was never an issue and Maegan was there to answer every phone call and email I had. I was so high strung about the whole process the whole time, I warned her anxiety often got the best of me but was always there to answer my questions which made everything so much easier to get through. I seriously don't know what I would have done if I didn't find Mass. Debt Relief Foundation and Maegan. Now my wife and I can focus on moving forward with our lives instead of looking back at all the mistakes. My only regret is that I did not do my research and find Maegan sooner! It was very scary going into bankruptcy because I knew nothing about what I was about to do, but Maegan explained everything very clearly to me every step of the way. I highly recommend consulting with her if you are in need, and I highly recommend not waiting. With the right person representing you, and clearly Maegan is that right person, you can hit that restart button.

Maegen was a lifesaver!

I was laid off from my job and diagnosed with a chronic illness, both of which left my finances in ruins. Maegan was patient, kind and professional, while helping me through the difficult and emotional process of filing bankruptcy.

Attorney Maegan Hurley is truly making a difference!

I recently had the honor of being represented by Attorney Maegan Hurley of the Massachusetts Debt Relief Foundation for my Chapter 7 filing. From the beginning, Maegan exhibited genuine kindness and compassion. She listened intently, treated me with the utmost respect throughout the process, and answ...ered every call and email in a timely and professional manner. My family and I are forever grateful to have connected with Maegan Hurley and the Massachusetts Debt Relief Foundation. God bless you Maegan....you are making a difference!!!

Best decision of my life to us MDRF

I went to a bankruptcy seminar at the Volunteer Lawyers Project and was eventually referred to Massachusetts Debt Relief Foundation my assigned attorney was Maegan Hurley. From my first contact with Maegan her made the process of filing Chapter 7 bankruptcy easy. First Maegan explained the process, ...timeline, required documents and filing fees. Maegan consultations were very thorough she doubt check all paperwork for my filing and made sure I understood everything without looking down on my situation. I would hands down recommend MS. Hurley and MDRF. Her services were PRO BONO.
