You don't always get what you pay for

Mr. Crane was hired to assist in some debt/bankruptcy issues. It was unfortunate that things did not turn our better and that he did not follow through. It may be because he is a very busy lawyer but when you pay for a service you expect, well, the services! We paid him to review our case and he fail...ed to follow through or help in anyway. He was very unprofessional and actually made me feel uncomfortable. It was a shame that we wasted time and money attempting to work with him. Sadly, he took the money and said, good luck. I do not think he was professional in the way that he approached our case and he didn't move forward with us or explain anything relating to the case, despite paying him. Do your homework before hiring this lawyer.

Miims T. Miims T. Winsted, CT 0 friends 9 reviews 5.0 star rating 4/26/2016 although bankruptcy may sound scary and overwhelming to you then by all means contact The Law Offices of Neil Crane LLC Bankruptcy Law 2679 Whitney Avenue Hamden, CT 06518 for help. i was financially sinking fa...st and felt there was no alternative but to share my cat's food and sit at the window and watch the weather change. Neil Crane's office was highly recommended to me as THE best help to end this situation. i worked with attorney Audra Buckland who facilitated the procedure to end my misery. she was caring, friendly, and boy-oh-boy does she know the law! the process was not difficult and there was plenty of help from the paralegals- mary, jodie, stephanie to name a few. granted, the fee may have been slightly higher than some other bankruptcy lawyers may charge but believe me- when you are at your wits' end and at the end of your rope you do NOT want to face this alone- and have to do all the legwork and calls yourself. bankruptcy is not fun but if you feel that you deserve a new chance at life please do yourself a favor and call Neil Crane's office 203-230-2233. i did and i can begin my life now... and my cat doesn't have to share.
