The best! Advise and service all top notch!

I was in a really bad time in my life with overwhelming bills and debt. Things only got worse after a failed business venture. My personal debt was through the roof. I needed help. I contacted Scott Tanne and received all the advice and answers I needed to make the correct decision. Any and all quest...ions I had about the process, my specific situation and the aftermath were answered and taken care of in full. Once I made the decision to file for bankruptcy with Scott Tanne and Christine Curran I knew I had made the right decision. They had a whole team to help me the entire time. I was very well prepared for what was expected, what I needed to do and how things would work out. Everything went very smoothly and in the end I received the help I needed and got a new start to my life. The relief is beyond anything I imagined I would feel. Scott Tanne and Christine Curran made it so easy to do something I had no clue about. I would highly recommend their law firm for any bankruptcy needs or advice. Great value and made it very easy for me to afford their services. Highly highly recommend!

Godsend

I was going to go the debt consolidation programme route, then I had a consultation with Scott. I told him my predicament and he answered every question with patience and understanding; I felt very comfortable immediately with my decision to go with his firm. I was informed of what would happen, ...walked through every step and assisted with the complete paperwork process. His assistant Mandi is also wonderful, you can call them, leave a message or text and they will get back to you that day. (THAT WAS IMPORTANT TO ME, IT MADE ME FEEL THEIR COMMITMENT) Everything they said would happen, happened (and it was always positive affirmation and progress) it was not hard to trust the process and these guys getting it done. If you are considering debt consolidation, DO NOT, contact the Scott Tanne firm; expeditiously; for a peace of mind and an end of your financial misery.

The light at the end of the tunnel

I was making headway in my debt then life got in the way and my spending got out of control and before I knew it, I was $36k in the hole. I went through a debt consolidation program which took $6k of my money without reason. I called Scott and we spoke about my situation and provided me with answers ...to all questions, made me feel comfortable and honestly treated me like I was a dear friend. Scott and his firm walked me through step by step, told me everything that would happen, and helped me process all necessary paperwork with ease. I wish I found him sooner to have had this process done sooner. Please if you are considering bankruptcy, please don’t hesitate to contact Scott Tanne. He truly was my light at the end of the tunnel.

Scott & Mandi are the perfect DUO

I wanted to wait before I do a review so that I can fully disclose on how great of a process Scott and Mandy performed during my chapter 13 bankruptcy. During the summer of 2022 had concluded my bankruptcy two years early. But I could not have done so without the help of my attorney, Scott Tanne and ...Mandi. Besides being very knowledgeable in the area, they were able to coach me with legal advice, and even when I was feeling discouraged about the process, they they lifted me up with the mindset that I can get it done. I am now in the process of buying my home post chapter 13, with a higher credit rating six months after the process. If you are having a financial hardship, turn to these guys and you won’t regret it.

Chapter 7

I am so grateful that I happen to find Atty. Tanne online to represent me in my bankcruptcy case (Filed March 2022, discharge on June 2022). I was hesitant at first and scared on what will be the outcome of my case however, as I started to work with Atty. Tanne everything seems to be so calm and I st...arted to have a peace of mind knowing that Atty. Tanne is well renowned for his work and had years of experienced dealing with chapter 7 and bankruptcies. He and his team Ms. Mandi have been so helpful, supportive and has walked me thru the entire process guiding me and ensuring that everything is filled out completely. I highly suggest to anyone in the State of NJ to contact Atty. Tanne and speak with him and his team. I will ensure you that your case will be handled professionally and you will be thankful that he represents you during your difficult time. There are alot of lawyers out there specializing in bankcruptcy but I will tell you, you do not want to miss the opportunity working for Atty. Tanne for your bankcruptcy needs.
