Amazing Attorney!!

Scott Tanne and his team, including attorney Christine Curran and paralegal Manda Coad, were just amazing all the way. From the very beginning through the Trustee hearing and ultimately the confirmation of my chapter 13 case, they were very clear, transparent and guided me through the whole process w...ith care, compassion and empathy. If you need to go through a bankruptcy, I strongly recommend this team without any hesitation!

Best Decision Ever

The fact that I even successfully finished this plan is so amazing and still surreal to me. I'm still processing, several months later. I am so grateful to have been able to trust you and your team. Thank you for everything. I am, for once in a lifetime able to reset my financial future and prepar...e a true legacy for my son and future generations. Scott and Christina have been amazing. I am a customer service guru and worked in client services for over 30 years. It is always the follow up that gets me excited. Your team did it right from start. I was very well prepared for each step of the process and will most definitely recommend this firm to my friends and family.

Extremely grateful to Scott Tanne and his associates

I was in a very difficult situation with my job and my personal finances. I have a well paying job but I was careless with my finances and had a tremendous amount of debt. My job relied heavily on commission made each month which was not guaranteed and I hold 7 licenses where if I ended with legal ...action from creditors it would end my career. I consulted with Scott Tanne and he took the time to listen to my situation and my concerns. He really listened and really understood my all of my concerns. He came up with the suggestion that I file a Chapter 13. It would protect me from creditors, protect me from regulators taking away my licenses, and help me restructure my debt to pay it over time. Most importantly he saved my job that I had for 20 years which I could lose if I did not seek his help. Scott Tanne is truly a professional who listens and cares about his clients. He knew how stressed I was over the situation and he totally restored order in my life. I am so grateful to Scott and his staff was also extremely helpful. The communication was excellent and they guided me every step of the way. I can now move forward in life with confidence once again thanks to Scott Tanne. I am so grateful for his expertise and understanding. I personally was embarrassed with my financial situation, but Scott made me feel comfortable in telling him everything so he could make the right decisions for me. I am so grateful and I want everyone to know that if you need a great attorney Scott Tanne is someone I would highly recommend.

Professional and Compassionate Guidance

When we realized that we were in a difficult financial situation my son recommended an attorney for us to contact. My husband and I were very nervous before meeting with Mr. Tanne. We had never considered bankruptcy before this. Thoughts of losing so much of what we had worked for plagued us night an...d day. Mr. Tanne immediately put us at ease. He explained how a Chapter 13 Bankruptcy would be able to help us to resolve our debt - No more sleepless nights and constant worry! We now had a plan and someone to turn to with questions and assistance. He made himself available to patiently answer our "million questions". I, without reservation, recommend Mr. Tanne and his staff to help you navigate professionally and compassionately through your financial challenges.
