She's a life saver.

I was stuck in a really bad situation where I needed immediate help withy debt issues. I got help through 211. They had directed me to lawyers in Boston who could assist me And I got intouch with Maegan. She helped me through my entire bankruptcy case & answered any questions I had even if she was ...off work she would eventually get back to me. She treated me very kindly & like didn't rush through any information or steps that had to be taken. She has great interpersonal skills & guided me well through the entire process. I feel like she treated me as if I were a close friend instead of just a random client. I'm very thankful for all her help. If it wasn't for her hard work I wouldn't be able to start my life over again.

Maegan Hurley is the Best Attorney You Can Hope to Find When You're Faced with the Daunting Process of Bankruptcy

Maegan is the most supportive, understanding, proactive, and effective attorney I could have ever hoped to find to assist me with filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy. A little over three years ago I contacted the Mass Debt Relief Foundation because I had been diagnosed with a serious illness that made it... impossible for me to work enough to earn the money to pay off debts that began to spin out of control following my completion of graduate school. I was totally overwhelmed and did not know where to begin to look for help. I spoke to Maegan when I called the Mass Debt Relief Foundation, and within a week I was meeting with her and beginning the process. Then I dropped the ball for the next few years because I was completely overwhelmed with my illness. I thought I'd burned a very useful bridge and that I'd have to start from scratch with a new attorney when I was finally healthy enough mentally and physically to actually go through the filing process. But to my surprise when I contacted Maegan again she was still willing to work with me. This time when I met with her she simplified the process for me even more, allowing me to feel less overwhelmed. Like many legal endeavors filing for bankruptcy is very convoluted and confusing to those of us who didn't go to law school, and Maegan made it easy for me to understand. She promptly returned every email I sent her and every phone call I made to answer my questions along the way so that I always felt supported and empowered. She did her part in record time, she was so efficient. Additionally she was willing to advise me on legal issues that didn't end up having to do with my bankruptcy filing. She devoted a lot of time helping me to understand complicated processes and she continued to offer help with any additional legal questions I had even after the bankruptcy went through. If you need to file for bankruptcy and you want to take care of it quickly and efficiently so that you can move on with your life, Maegan is the right person to contact. On a personal note I think that what the Mass Debt Relief Foundation is doing to help people when they are experiencing a financial crisis is extremely important work. No one wants to file for bankruptcy, and this foundation, especially Maegan, helps you without judgement. They make the process relatively easy and quick. I am very grateful to Maegan and the Mass Debt Relief Foundation for helping me through the filing process and for all their support.

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.
