Excellent Attorney!

I hired Attorney Scannell to represent me for my Chapter 7 bankruptcy and it was one of the best decisions I have ever made. He was not only professional, but also down-to-earth. He explained the legal jargon in layman's terms so it was understandable. He was articulate in leaving no stone unturned a...nd made what was probably the worst financial ordeal in my life, bearable. He helped me see there was in fact a light at the end of the tunnel! Thank you Attorney Scannell! You're an asset to your profession!

Great Attorney

I have used Bill on numerous occasions. I have referred him several people over the last 15 years and they were all very happy with the results. He is a great attorney.

Badlawyer

Predator behavior, uses people in in need! Solicits his client's at AA meetings! He's a sleasbag attorney taking advantage of people who are in the worst situations of there life. He's been suspended twice! Should NOT be practicing law!

Best decision we ever made

This was the best decision we ever made. Bankruptcy can be a frightening experience but Atty.Scannell put us at ease led us through the process and helped us to begin anew. Stop struggling and worrying . It is a wonderful feeling of knowing you can start over and fresh. Thank you Bill.

Best decision I ever made

Hiring Attorney Scannel was the best decision I ever made. Restructuring my finances was stressful until I met Attorney Scannel. He promised that he would take the weight off of my shoulders and he delivered. If you have debt and assets, trust me, stop stressing, stop tossing and turning, give this ...office a call. Bill will take care of everything. He guarantees it!
