Excellent Lawyer

I welcome the opportunity to write about Mr. Edward Vaisman. I found him to be very honest, clear and upfront about his fee, as well as with his explanation on what the bankruptcy process would be like. There were no surprises along the way. His expertise made the process stress-free and left me feel...ing confident. Mr. Vaisman delivered just that, and in less time than I expected. I would highly recommend Mr. Edward Vaisman without hesitation for his professionalism, skills and integrity. I have a fresh start and a new outlook. Thank you.

Knowledge, Professional, and Ethical

When we were searching for legal representation in our bankruptcy case, we looked for three things: a knowledgeable attorney, a lawyer that can be trusted, and someone that will be reasonably priced. After extensive research, we found that Mr. Edward Vaisman satisfied all three requirements. Vais...man took over our bankruptcy case from another attorney. He took his time in our initial phone conversation to understand our unique circumstance. As a result, Vaisman explained the various options to successfully complete the bankruptcy case. Most importantly, he took his time to educate us on some bankruptcy laws that affected our case. His knowledge and experience is clearly demonstrated on our initial phone call. Starting our bankruptcy case with another attorney, we were skeptical on choosing a subsequent lawyer that be trusted to successfully complete the bankruptcy case. However, Vaisman’s prompt response via email, text, and phone is unheard of these days with attorneys. He was always available to answer all of my questions (e.g., day/night, weekdays/weekends). In addition, his demeanor instilled confidence and thus, we always felt comfortable that Vaisman will handle all situations with the case, even if the case was complex. Sometimes, clients similar to us can be in a desperate situation. Nevertheless, Vaisman never took advantage of our immediate needs and required a reasonable fee for his services. In our situation, he could have practically charged any amount to take over our case. Luckily, Vaisman is an honorable man with high integrity. There are not many people that have the combination of Mr. Edward Vaisman’s knowledge, professionalism, and integrity. As a result, he is a true asset to the community.

Excellent Bankruptcy Attorney

I worked with Ed for 10 months on my Chapter 13 bankruptcy case and had a very positive experience and exceptional outcome. From the first meeting he has been nothing less than professional from the initial information gathering meeting, court filing and many follow-ups required with the court. He wa...s always responsive to my emails, voicemails and text messages and took the time to explain the status and made recommendations on the best ways to proceed. Discussing your financial situation with a complete stranger can be terrifying but his non-judgmental demeanor was very much appreciated. I am highly satisfied with the job he's done for me and I highly recommend him.

Go with him in the process,relax&enjoy the results

Mr. Edward Vaisman had helped us tremendously.At the time when we needed a lawyer,and many others had bowed out,he came through in a big way. He handled our case with the utmost care and attention to all the details. Our matter had been settled much to our satisfaction. Since then we recomend him to ...all the people we know who have a need of honest and fair representation

Going into bankruptcy with Ed Vaisman

When I had no other choice and was facing bankruptcy, I was worried, scared and afraid of losing everything. After my first consultation with Ed, I felt more informed, more at ease and knew I was not alone. He made it painless and asked questions that you would expect but nothing I felt was invadi...ng my privacy. It does help to be prepared knowing all your expenses. Yes, it's a long process (takes a few months) but Ed was there when it counted. He was always very pleasant, showed up in court with me and when needed, he was there on my behalf. I don't know where I would be now without Ed's help of keeping my necessity of living assets. His fee was very reasonable compared to others I also checked out. You may have to do your own follow up once in awhile but, he always answers his phone and emails so getting answers to questions is never a problem. Would I recommend Ed Vaisman, absolutely!
