Outstanding and Committed , Worked tirelessly to extract me from an awful hopeless situation.

Barbie did the impossible which was to not ONLY keep me from going into foreclosure but to oversee and make sure the real estate people did their job as well. I had to deal with an uncooperative ex husband and property I no longer lived in. Barbie was tireless and brilliant in her strategy to bring a...bout a great resolution in very unpromising case. Without her commitment and energy ,I would still be under an oppressive loan that would have changed my lifestyle considerably. I am deeply indebted to her for her above and beyond professionalism and kindness. She genuinely cares and wants her clients to be successful and happy.

Great Lawyer .. Nice Person

When I became overwhelmed and realized that the debt settlement agency with which I was enrolled was not really helping me, I made the decision to file bankruptcy. Barbie came highly recommended by a co-worker who filed bankruptcy last year. I'm still thanking that co-worker today! Barbie made the... process go by smoothly by prepping me very well for my hearing. She was not only on top of everything; she managed to keep me calm and focused.

Amazing, Reliable...a blessing.

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!!!

Excellent lawyer

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.

Chapter 7 Discharged in July 2013

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.
