Barbie Lieber Filing for Bankruptcy Seem Like a Breeze

I contemplated filing for bankruptcy for at least a year. I tried to come up with ways to see how to pay my bills, after the feeling of drowning in debt overcame me, I searched online for a bankruptcy lawyer. A bunch of attorneys emailed me back, I met with Mrs.Lieber mainly because she was so engagi...ng on the phone. She called me within 24 hours of reading my email. She gave me a quick phone consultation and arranged a time for me to come in and told me what to come in with. I gathered my materials and was a nervous wreck on my way to her office. She made me feel very comfortable and although i was nervous and scared, I left there thinking I made the right choice and picked the right person to help me through this scary process. I met with her two times before my bankruptcy meeting. Any time I had a question I emailed or called her and within an hour I had a reply from her. She was very attentive and caring. I didnt have to bring anything other then my ID to the final meeting. As I waited in the waiting room I very quickly noticed that the clients and attorneys were meeting for the very first time. The clients had stacks of paperwork to fish through and were very quickly going over materials and questions. I realized again that I made the right choice. She briefed me again on what they will be asking me, never did I feel under prepared while I was waiting. I know I made the right choice and I will gladly and confidently refer her to anyone who is looking for representation. She made this already scary process seem like a breeze.

Barbie Lieber was referred to me by a family member. By the time i contacted Barbie, i was drowning in debt, felt like a failure and was almost too embarrassed to call her. However, she made me feel at ease from the initial telephone conversation to the last. She treated me with respect, understandi...ng of my situation and worked with me every step of the way. She prepped me before every meeting and made sure i understood the process. We communicated regularly via email. During the 341 meeting i was very nervous yet Barbie didn't leave my side and explained everything that was going on. Barbie is knowledgeable and up to date on new laws that benefited me during the filing process. I am very thankful that i made that call and that now i am well on my way to becoming debt free and getting my life back on track

Barbie Lieber was my "Guardian Angel"

While in search of a law firm to handle my Chapter 7 bankruptcy, I happened to contact Lieber & Lieber, LLP – and within a few moments I was already impressed. For, instead of being greeted by an impersonal operator or receptionist, I found myself talking to Barbie Lieber – who quickly assessed my f...inancial situation and allayed any trepidation I had regarding the Chapter 7 process. By the time I hung up the phone, Barbie was my lawyer. Barbie then expertly guided me through every phase of my bankruptcy - never losing sight of the myriad details - and took great pains to ensure that I was totally prepared for my upcoming 341 Trustee hearing. I’m thrilled to report that the Trustee meeting went more smoothly than I ever thought possible - lasting only a few minutes - and ended with my case being successfully closed. And, I have Barbie to thank for it. Thanks Barbie! Alan

Above and beyond my expectations!

When I finally made the difficult decision to file for bankruptcy I knew I would need legal help. My experience with attorneys has made me somewhat hesitant to employ and to trust them. I found Barbie by searching through many reviews online where I was intrigued by all of the positive feedback s...he had received from clients and other attorneys alike. She is not only liked and respected in her field but has made a personal impression on each of the people she has helped. From the moment I spoke with Barbie on the phone all of my fears were put at ease. She very kindly took the time to listen to my entire story and gave me valuable feedback on my situation. From there we set up a meeting and the rest was history. The entire process was so much easier with Barbie's help and vigilant attentiveness. She responded within minutes to every email that I sent her and many times followed it up with a phone call. It was obvious that she cared about my case and that she took the time to make herself very familiar with me and my particular circumstances. At the 431 meeting she was there early and fully prepared to run through final preparations with me and to meet with the trustee. Barbie went far beyond my expectations of an attorney and I will not hesitate to contact her again if I need legal help. I would highly recommend Barbie to anyone looking for compassionate, professional, competent and attentive help with their legal matters.

thank you for all your help Barbie!

January 13, 2011 Ms. Barbie Lieber LIEBER & LIEBER 60 East 42nd Street (Suite 2102) New York, NY 10165 Dear Barbie, I want to thank you for being such a great lawyer!! One night after many years of ignoring my financial instability I decided that enough was enough. I decided to confr...ont the reality I was ignoring. Searching thru many websites and making calls I found Barbie Lieber. I'm so thankful for that, Barbie did not only talk to me like a lawyer but also as an adviser that opened my eyes to how, when and why Chapter 7 was my option. Barbie listened and analyzed my situation; I told her everything about my situation with my house and credit cards. The filing process was done within days of meeting, I was impressed how fast and efficient she is. Barbie prepared me from day one until the last meeting with the trustee. She was always on point with follow ups and responds to calls/emails with questions I had. During the meeting of Creditors other lawyers missed paperwork from their clients and were puzzled about their own cases, not Barbie, she is very thorough, organized and confident. She will definitely be recommended to my family and friends who may have similar situations. I'm so amazed and glad Barbie helped me move out this stressful situation. Thank you for all your help and dedication. I wish all lawyers were as nice and smart as you, hopefully you’ve be able to help out New Yorkers for many years. Take care and have a wonderful year, you just made mine! -Danilo
