Robert Stanley Gitmeid

Started with over 25k in debt from 17 creditors. Am now down to 3 creditors. Every communication with this attorney was responded to in a timely manner. When I was contacted by a creditor, Gitmead Law handled everything in a timely manner. From day one until now, Gitmead Law has been transparent abou...t everything. Highly recommend thier services if financial difficulties are your issue.

I hired them after my divorce to help me out of marital debt I was buried in totaling about 25xxx. I was able to reduce my payments over the holidays without problem, and just made an extra deposit and was told they are in negotiation with one of my 2 creditors. Something I couldn't have resolved on ...my own. They are always friendly and helpful when I call, as well. Will give them 5 stars when all gets resolved. Was told I am on a 15 mo program, back in Aug 2019. Hoping to shorten that time and get this off my credit and move ON with my life, a little faster thanks to them.

Positives: It’s not a scam. It took a while and I got sued in the process but they eventually settled. In the space of 2 years, I would have cleared 35k in credit debt. Another plus is that after I signed up with Gitmeid, the collection calls surprisingly stopped, and I also did not have to appear i...n court after I got served. They took care of all legal matters as they said they would. Negatives: They are not very transparent about “how” they do things. They rarely have updates and they give you little information about the process. I called them several times asking for updates and got nothing even after I got served by the creditor. Another negative is that after the settlement was agreed, first thing they did is pull their whole fee amount (over 7K) from the escrow account. That money could have gone a long way I’m sure to negotiate a lower settlement. In the end, a large amount of the money I had saved for a year went to Gitmeid first instead of the creditor? Not cool… And my biggest complaint is that the settlement amount was so high (80%) that once I add their fees, I will end up paying a lot more than what I owed the creditor in the first place. They did not even flinch when they told me over the phone. The conversation was very impersonal. My monthly payment tripled to maintain the payoff schedule to the creditor. Luckily, I got a new better job or else I am not sure how things would have turned out. My Advice Gitmeid will do for you what they say. But don’t think it’s necessarily going to be easier and cheaper. No one can defend your interests better than yourself. In retrospect, I could have faced my creditor and worked something out directly with them.

Gitmeid has been an amazing office to work with for our debt. We started with over $50K in credit card debt and they have been working hard on getting these accounts settled for amazing amounts. They work quickly and are very friendly to work with. We have been with them for nearly two years and have... never had any problems.

I.t worked for me, everything they said would happen happened. Got sued by one creditor and they made that go away. Biggest complaint is that at the end it felt VERY impersonal, I just paid all my debt off and I didn't even get a call or email. If you miss a payment they'll call right away, but once ...you're done... meh Ended up having to pay the bank account service fee for if being open for 2 months even though the was absolutely no point in it being open anymore, but at least they waived their own fee...
