Michael Posner is Fabulous

So, you are separating from your spouse and the finances are crazy-making. Budget is tight. You make tough decisions. Decisions that make you feel like you may have ruined your life. And then, because why should you ever breathe easy, it starts to catch up with you. Getting a summons from one ...of my debt merchants was a nightmare of very bad timing. I felt trapped and guilty. I was caught! I wanted to be in a position to pay them, of course. But you never know where you are going to be years out from when you take a loan because you can't see your future. Sometimes it just doesn't work out. I knew I didn't want to be alone. Even though I was technically in the wrong, I needed to get the best outcome for me and my family. I could not afford to just roll over. Bankruptcy was NOT the best option for me. Negotiation was. And it is not easy to get an attorney to understand that. I miraculously found Michael in a flood of recommendations. He knew the system inside and out. Very experienced and did not sugar coat anything. He delivers the bad news totally straight. He went to bat for me against a powerful merchant with a vicious reputation. He did not back down. And he got me a deal I could live with. He gave me time to think when I needed it. He did not rush me beyond what the situation required. He treated me like an individual - a single mother in a total bind - and went into the fire a few times to make sure all options were explored. It's never easy to sort this kind of thing out. It's business, but when you're the little person, it's emotional. You feel threatened by a very powerful adversary. Michael gets in there, does not get snowed or shaken by powerful foes and does his best. He is always pleasant, too, with a healthy sense of humor. I would walk through hell with Michael again. I hope I don't have to, but I know who to call and who to recommend. Michael Posner. Call him now.

Came Through Every Time!

When I closed on my home years ago, Michael Posner was recommended by a friend, and thanks to him, the closing went smoothly, without a hitch, and I was well-informed every step of the way. So, years later, when my elderly mother, who was in her nineties, helpless, with no savings or equity, and livi...ng strictly on social security and Medicaid for her home care, was facing a cruel foreclosure action, out of desperation, I called Michael. My poor mother, who was unaware, and soon after suffered from dementia, only wished to finish her days at home, “surrounded by her memories.” Frustrated by the fact that I didn’t have the resources to pay what was needed to make the foreclosure go away, I called Michael. He immediately explained my options to me, appeared for her and me every time, so I never even had to go to court on her behalf, and his assistance allowed my mother the extra years to live at home until she got her wish, and peacefully passed there at age 98! For that, I will never, ever forget him! But my story doesn’t end there! Last year, due to some unfortunate family circumstances beyond my control, I found myself facing foreclosure. So, once again, I called Michael Posner! This was a situation where I needed time, which I didn’t have, until I was in a position to bring myself current. This took many months. Michael once again appeared for me, filing the necessary papers, and buying me the time until I was able to gather enough funds to bring my account up to date. Again, he kept me well-informed. It’s safe to say that Michael Posner saved my mother’s home, as well as mine, from foreclosures. I’ve been current ever since, but Michael navigated me through two desperate crises. And for the priceless service he provided my mom and me, his fee was extremely reasonable, to say the least! Needless to say, I highly recommend him to anyone who needs assistance in any real estate matter. He’s three for three with me, and I will forever be grateful to him! Hopefully, I will never again be in need of such services, but if I am, at least I know whom I can call with confidence!
