Bankruptcy

My situation before I contacted Tanne law firm was very bad. I was loosing my property because I could not keep up with the monthly mortgage payments. I previously tried with two law firms and each one of them promising me that they will get loan modification to save my properties and I paid them a l...ot money, but nothing ever came out it. Then I searched on internet for different attorney and I came across Tanne law firm. I made an appointment with attorney Scott Tanne and he explained to me , step by step how it is going to work, how would I be able to save my property, what I have to do. I agreed with his advice and retained him as my attorney. He is a true professional as well as all people who work in his office. If I have any question, I call them or just stop by without appointment. They are very helpful. Last October 2019 was my last payment and now I own my property and have no mortgage. What incredible feeling I have!!!.. I am so greatful for his help. Now I will be able to save money and help my father with dental implant and some other stuffs. I recommend anyone whose loosing his property and want to save it to use Tanne Law Firm.

Put me at ease during a nerve-wracking process

I was overwhelmed by medical expenses due to having a premature child years ago, as well as debt and legal fees incurred during and after divorce. Filing for bankruptcy was one of the last things I've ever wanted to do, but I felt like I had no choice. Scott and his staff were very patient and answe...red my questions throughout the process.

excellent service, totally satisfied

I miserably ran into credit card debts deeply and had to file for chapter 7. I searched online for bankruptcy lawyers and came across Scott. He is very nice and kind, and charges a reasonable price. So I retained him. Along the process, he gave me detailed advice and guides, and I prepared the materi...als needed with his also kind employees. He and his co-workers helped me a lot along the way. Though I was asked by the committee hard questions and was worried a lot, he helped me get through it successfully. I got noticed by him about the smooth progress (all I needed to do was waiting for discharge) just before last Christmas and I was so excited and felt blessed, and had a relieved and happy holiday! Now I was discharged on time, about 3.5 months after filing. It was an overall very happy and successful process, though along the way I was so nervous, of course. Scott gave me a lot comfort and courage, without his help, I cannot imagine what the mess would still be. And to my surprise, even before official discharge, my credit score jumped up more than 50%! And immediately after discharge, I received offers from credit card issuers, and I already got a pre-qualified regular card with very impressive terms, means no annual fee and 0 interest rate for 9 months (of course I will not let myself in debt again!), just a regular normal credit card, not the type that charges high fees to make miserable people more miserable! It is amazing! Now I am so happy that I am out of debt and can have a fresh start! I thank Scott and his team so so much! and Thank God I have a new life! Thanks all! Thanks for everything!!! Scott has a nice personality and is ready to help always, he and his team works effectively and know what they are doing! Based on my experience, I definitely give him and his team a 5+ star, and strongly recommend him to anyone who needs such a service! You won't regret!

Very Helpful Attorney

I’ve struggled with money all my life. When I got pregnant, I didn’t know what to do. My bills weren’t being paid and I had a lot of credit card debt. I had to do something. My friend recommended bankruptcy. I was looking online for an attorney and found Mr. Tanne. He explained everything to me... very patiently and slowly. His team helped me so much to finally be debt free. It’s amazing how your life changes once you can start fresh. I highly recommended Mr. Tanne and his team with any situation you might be dealing with.

Bankruptcy help

Thankfully, I am able to breathe again as things are much improved following the resolution of my bankruptcy. I could only say that working with your office was very pleasant and a positive experience dealing with something so serious as bankruptcy. There was guidance along each step of the way and ...no question was ever left unanswered. A very friendly office as well.
