Highly Recommend

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My attorney was a lifesaver! Attorney David Falvey expertly guided me out of a tough spot with genuine care and dedication. Couldn’t have asked for better. His national attention for his knowledge in this space is well-deserved. Highly recommended!

Strong Morals and Values!!! Very Knowledgeable!!!

I was referred to Attorney Falvey by a close friend and am very happy that I decided to hire him and his firm. After going through a horrible, drawn out divorce, I had no other option but to consider filing for bankruptcy. Dave was very compassionate and understanding. He rested my mind at ease and r...eassured me that I was making the right decision. I knew I was in good hands after our first initial consultation. He provided detailed answers to every single question that I had. Attorney Dave Falvey is a blessing and cares about his clients. He is extremely knowledgeable in his area of practice and is in my opinion, one of the best!!!!

Honesty, Integrity

David Falvey is one of the most thorough and persistant advocates any person could hope to have during a time of need. I am so very pleased with my result and the manner in which it was achieved. He is dedicated to not only the case at hand, but helping a person to learn from their experience and rec...over well.

review

I have been working with action advocacy for the last two years. I think in the end it was worth the money I paid them, but I worked with a paralegal the entire time only met with attorney once. The paralegal wasn't overly friendly or helpful so it wasn't a very reassuring experience. Also I still ...had to do a lot of calls/work myself. They never tried getting anything deleted off my credit report either, they only settled the debts. Didn't feel like they really "fought for me" with these collection agencies. I probably could have just called them and settled with them myself. I learned a lot more with My FICO website than I did paying action advocacy.
