Posted by Adam Yannotta | June 07, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Credit Repair

Excellent Service, Great Results, I brought Barry a bad situation and he turned it into a positive outcome for me and my family.

Barry and Jodi Miller negotiated a settlement for an AMEX credit card in the range of $35,000 and saved me thousands of dollars in unnecessary interest and fees, reduced the total amount of principal owed and increased the amount of time I had to pay the balance of the card. I called Barry Miller a ...day before the legal financial complaint against me from American Express was to convert into a Supreme Court Lawsuit. Barry was able to prevent a Judgement against me by negotiating a settlement that included an extended payment plan, reduction of principal and interest along with a positive credit outcome. My credit was 640 in March of 2016 and now it is 750 in June of 2016. Barry incorporated a stipulation in the settlement that would make the creditors retract any negative credit reporting. Not only did my credit increase but Amex sent me a new Corporate Card as if this account was never compromised.

Barry Miller represented me with full zeal and diligence and got the job done

I had an initial consultation via phone, and soon afterwards met Barry at his office. My case pertained to a civil judgment which I believe should not have been entered on my credit report. However, I knew that trying to represent myself, pro se, would be too daunting. This was my first experience... as a client of an attorney, so I had no expectations, and had some trepidation. For my first meeting, Barry asked me to bring whatever documentation I had pertaining to the case. Although the initial meeting was expectedly brief, I still recognized his thoroughness, his organization, and the zeal with which I would be represented. He set expectations well, outlining his intended course of actions. I left that meeting feeling confident that Barry was going to represent me with complete diligence. Ultimately, the work he did on my case confirmed that confidence.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
