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.

Scott and his team are phenomenal

Scott is very thorough and honest about every part of the process. Christine helped me prepare for the hearing and really put my mind at ease and answered all of my questions. Mandi was very responsive to my emails and got back to me very quickly. I called Scott one day just to get information and he... made me so comfortable that I decided to move forward with him. Best decision I could possibly make. I cannot recommend Scott enough if you're going through bankruptcy.

Chapter 13 Bankruptcy

HOORAY!!!!! As of November 2021, I have met my obligation of payments for my Chapter 13 Bankruptcy. As we know, no one sets out to get themselves in a financial bond in which they find themselves struggling to pay bills. Well unfortunately, in October 2016, I was in over $80,000 in debt. The gr...eat new was that I found a Law Firm (Scott E. Tanne Attorney At Law) to help me out of my situation. I was Blessed to find Scott on the internet as I was searching for Bankruptcy Attorneys. I made the call, followed his instructions, did everything he asked within the time restraints and Scott took it from there. It was great having someone to represent me that knew what they were doing, did the job professionally, did not drag their feet, answered EVERY question and concern, and most of all provided step by step information of what to expect. Anytime Scott was not available, he had an assistant that was equally qualified to handle every situation. I am now DEBT FREE and rebuilding my Credit. I strongly recommend Scott E. Tanne Attorney At Law to anyone who has found themselves in a similar situation. You won't be disappointed. Sincerely, Debra J. A Satisfied Client

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!

While researching for a Bankruptcy attorney online, I came across the office of Scott E. Tanne, Esq., and read great reviews by his clients, so I decided to reach out to him. After our telephone conversation, I realized he was the person I wanted to represent me. Mr. Tanne’s decision to represent me ...on my Bankruptcy Petition changed my life. Therefore, as a client, I feel compelled to write a review for an extraordinary attorney with a record of successful client representation. In a clear, concise and cogent manner, he and staff explained the collateral consequences of filing a Bankruptcy Petition under 11 U.S.C. 727. Counsel answered each one of my questions in a very professional manner. He made himself available to me by phone, email, text messages through the entire process and was always responsive to my concerns. Mr. Tanne was completely honest from day one, he was so thorough in walking me through the process. His staff was incredibly easy to work with, and they were so detailed in their analysis of how the law would be applied to the facts of my case. Never feeling pressured, he clearly explained my options, what to expect and what my responsibilities would be to best facilitate the process. Thoroughly answering any questions or concerns I had, he continuously brought me peace of mind. His knowledge, professionalism and level of communication from beginning to end were exemplary and, for this, I am so grateful for his services. Mr. Tanne, in concert with his paralegal, Mandi Coates, prevailed on my petition, which evinced Counsel’s years of experience in the expertise of bankruptcy jurisprudence. I would strongly recommend Counsel to any prospective client considering whether to file a Chapter 7 pursuant to 11 U.S.C. 727.
