I was pretty much losing my mind with all my debts especially after getting laid off from my job and spending all my savings to be able to pay off my credit cards. Finding Barbie was a Blessing for me, not only did she keep me calm throughout the entire Bankruptcy she was extremely responsive and pre...pared me very well for everything. I cannot thank her enough. Now I have a fresh start and can breathe. THANK YOU BARBIE!!!

Barbie Lieber is an outstanding bankruptcy lawyer. I have a good job as a college professor, yet I managed to get myself into an unwieldy financial mess. I had overextended myself with credit cards, medical bills, student loans and retirement loans. After I made the decision to file for bankruptcy, I... called Barbie because other people recommended her highly. That said, I knew to expect a lot from her, but she did so much more than I ever bargained for. She designed for me a exemplary Chapter 13 bankruptcy plan; a sound, concrete budget that allowed me to cover all my daily living expenses so I never had to worry about garnishments or levies; and she found a way for me to repay my retirement loans in full. She helped me keep my creditors at bay, which gave me peace of mind. Provided I comply with my chapter 13 plan, all of my unsecured debt will be discharged, my student loans will be significantly reduced, and no creditors can contact me again. At first, the thought of filing for bankruptcy overwhelmed, and nearly paralyzed me. I needed some hand holding along the way, and occasional reassurance that everything would be alright. I had many questions about how bankruptcy works and what to expect. Barbie answered all my questions and provided me with the support I needed. I don't remember the last time I worked with anyone so organized, thorough, and sensible. She is a consummate professional: ethical and honest, affordable, and accessible by phone and email always. She returned all my messages at lightening speed. I never felt alone or uninformed, and there were no unwelcome surprises along the way. Ever. In court, she knows all the ropes, which helped me relax. Filing for bankruptcy is a big step. My decision to entrust Barbie Lieber to help me take control of my finances was one of the best decisions I've ever made.

Where do I start? Barbie was so AMAZING!!! My husband and I always struggled to support our family but made ends meet until 2011. I was laid off (6 weeks pregnant) and my husband was injured at work and was out for months. During this time, his wages were also reduced and frozen due to County cut...backs. Our income was basically cut in half and I was unable to find work being pregnant. We had no choice but to file Chapter 7. From the get go, Barbie was so caring and warm. She eased our concerns and anxieties about the gravity of our situation. With very little help from us (we really just provided paperwork), she had our debt discharged in July 2013. It was so painless. I wish Barbie practiced all areas of law, because I honestly never want to deal with any other attorney ever again.

After trying for almost two years to manage mounting credit card bills, payment arrangements, and ever-increasing tax assessments, I reluctantly concluded that I should file for bankruptcy. My case was not straightforward; it was complicated by the fact that my personal finances overlapped with inco...me received from a small business operation, and I had personal tax liens filed against me. In deciding to file for bankruptcy, I knew I would need to engage an attorney who would not only defend my interests but one who would take a personal interest in my case. Barbie Lieber is just such an attorney. Indeed, I had consulted with two other attorneys prior to meeting with her. When my initial consultation with Barbie was over, I knew that I had found the kind of attorney I was looking for – the kind of attorney that I could trust. Barbie will never view you or treat you as merely “just another client.” She is not only an extremely capable attorney with a great deal of experience with bankruptcy cases as complex as mine, she has the added quality that anyone going through the turmoil of bankruptcy really needs – empathy. Barbie is genuinely concerned about how you, as a person, will manage AFTER the bankruptcy proceedings have concluded, and she’s not hesitant about offering you advice in that regard. If you are fortunate to have Barbie represent you before the Bankruptcy trustee (and she will be there with you in person – she does not outsource your case to some unknown lawyer as other firms sometimes do) you’ll find that Barbie has prepared you –over and over again - for every possible contingency. She leaves no detail, no matter how small, unattended. I have a tremendous amount of respect for Barbie; and she will always have my undying gratitude for the manner in which she handled my case. I wholeheartedly recommend her to you without any reservations whatsoever.

We were in need of retaining a chapter 7 bankruptcy lawyer and started to seriously look around late last year 2012. We spoke with 2 lawfirms and had made a lot of phone calls to other firms before we came upon the AVVO website and saw all the endless positive reviews about Barbie Lieber. We contac...ted her by email first and then after a few emails back and forth, Barbie just asked us for our phone number and she called us right away. We had a lot of concerns, as anyone would in filing chapter 7 and she spent the time with us on the phone. We spent a few days thinking it over and we called her back and retained her. She was able to expedite the filing process quickly, compared to other firms that were quoting a longer waiting time for filing. We were very prepared for the 341 mtg. and calmed my nerves. We have no regrets about any of it. The whole process was stressful at times but Barbie kept assuring us that everything would be okay. And true to her word, everything did work out. Thank you Barbie.
