Thank you all at the law office of Scott Tanne. Scott, Mandi & Christine, I could not have survived this process without you all. Everyone at this office was extremely professional and knowledgeable.

Above and Beyond!

My husband and I hired Scott and his team to help us with our bankruptcy case back in November 2019 and we just received our discharge as of March 2020. No one ever wants to have to grow through this but sadly we were faced to do so but with the help of Scott and his team we were able to get through ...this and I have to say he made this process very stress free . From the first time we meet to our hearing in the court Scott was always there to answer any questions which we may have had. I would highly recommend Scott E Tanne to anyone who may ever need his services. He is professional and is always available to answer any questions that may arise. Thank you Scott and your team for helping us out during this difficult time.

Posted by Brian | August 27, 2020 | Hired Attorney | Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

Mr. Brian S.

I came to Scott with quite an issue. I had an LLC based in OH, while I had residency in NJ. It took me several attorneys to finally give me the right answer and I was glad to finally meet Scott, whom I found on the NACBA website. Scott was able to guide me through the issues of having a business I th...ought protected me but also gave me the hard truth that I signed onto a loan that voided that protection. Declaring Personal Bankruptcy was hard because I had great credit, always paid my bills and was smart financially, but my business was not in good shape and it was a decision that I had to make. Thanks to Scott's advice, it turned out to be the right one. Working with Tanne Law was a fantastic experience. As I walked in, I instantly felt comfortable with Scott. I got all my questions answered in our initial meeting, contacted him directly several times after with more questions and developed a great relationship with his clerks and staff as they assisted with the paperwork I needed for my case. Scott explained all the Chapters that I could apply for and guided me into making the correct choice in filing for Ch. 7. During my case hearing, Christine was my representative and I never felt more at ease. I was able to answer all the questions from the Trustee truthfully and honestly knowing Christine and Scott properly prepared me for the case. I left reassured and confident after my Ch7 request was accepted and I would get a full discharge in a few months. I'm happy to report I did receive a full discharge and my life is returning to normalcy. I no longer have the stress I had hanging over me, my financial state isn't in ruins and I'm able to walk with my head high knowing I did everything I could for both my business and my family. I would highly recommend Tanne Law firm to anyone dealing with this situation. To have an ally like Scott and Christine in your corner when you're facing a scary and unpredictable situation was not only reassuring but comforting. Don't be afraid to be honest with your past and let Tanne Law take care of the rest. Trust me, you're in good hands.

BEST BANKRUPTCY FIRM

I was coming out of a horrific divorce, being left penniless with 2 young children. I had to find the right attorneys, to "right side", my life. I made a few calls, was frustrated until I connected with Scott Tanne and Christine Curran. They were, honest, thorough and very articulate in their field o...f bankruptcy law. I would not have been able to move on with my life, without their careful and steadfast guidance. The process was seamless and positive I would and have recommended them to a few people, who gladly hired them. The results were fabulous and I have started a new life. Thank you, Scott and Christine. Sincerely, Jennifer

Great Team!

My situation prior to working with Scott was a terrible one. Lots of debt and non stop collection calls! Everyone was so easy to work with and made everything as easy as possible!! After my discharge my life is getting back on track and my credit is already up almost 100 points! I would ...absolutely recommend Scott and his team to anyone!
