Thank You Barbie

Barbie helped expedite my bankruptcy process flawlessly and seamlessly. For the 341 meeting she was prepared and anticipated ever possible need of the judge. Barbie prepared me in regards to what to expect, had all of my paperwork in order and nicely coordinated. While waiting for my meeting I notice...d other attorneys were not prepared and the judge did not hesitate to call them out. I was nervous, but with Barbie, it was quick, easy and painless. She was extremely prompt to return my calls, answer any questions and had this entire process done in no time. Thank you so much for helping me through such a complicated time in my life.

Barbie Lieber

After searching through the internet and making an umpteenth amount of calls, I came across Lieber and Lieber’s website. The site was so informative! So, even though I was discouraged from the other attorneys that I spoke to, I decided to leave a message. Barbie called me back the same day; which ...was a holiday that fell on a Saturday. I assumed I would be called back that Monday or maybe even later that week at best. I explained my situation, she listened and answered my questions and addressed my concerns. Barbie was so encouraging and caring. I wanted to make an appointment with Barbie, but when I found out her office was on the 21st Floor I explained to her that I am claustrophobic and cannot take elevators. Barbie told me that it was no problem because there was a diner in the lobby, and she would come down and meet with me. Once we met I was positive that I made the perfect choice! The other attorneys I spoke to barely listened and they sounded like they were reading from a script. They wouldn’t answer any questions, until, of course, I met with them and made a payment. When I met with Barbie, I brought more documents then I even needed to. Barbie looked over and made notes on each and every one and she remembered things from our phone conversation. We agreed on a payment plan and once I paid in full, she sent me the petition to review and when I gave the “okay” and she sent it in. I was given a court date for about six weeks later. Barbie explained what the process with the Trustee would be like. I was so nervous and whenever I emailed or called Barbie she responded faster than I could have hoped. When my date was getting near, and my nerves were getting the best of me Barbie was always the voice of reason and calmed me down. When the day came, she was there by my side and the meeting with the Trustee could not have went any better. About six weeks after the meeting my case was discharged! One last thing, Barbie was concerned about me as a person, not just client. She gave me advice on my health issue, which touched my heart more then you can imagine. Thank you and God Bless.

A Strong Advocate!

A few months ago I was freaked out and indecisive about how to handle my mounting financial problems. I walked out of my first meeting with Barbie with a thorough understanding of what my rights were and confident about how things could be straightened out. Barbie took charge of my case and masterful...ly steered me in the right direction. She is rare among lawyers in that she understands the human equation as much as the legal complexities and is not only an excellent lawyer, but more importantly, a strong advocate. My case has now been completed with great results and I am moving forward without the stress of debt. I could not recommend her more highly.

Saved Our Condo Purchase

We came into Lieber & Lieber with a broken dream. Our first home purchase had become a nightmare. After 9 months, we were unable to obtain financing because of specifics in the contract. We stood to lose our 10% deposit (for a NYC condo- that is a lot). Our previous lawyer failed to protect us from ...such an event. Needless to say, we fired him after we met Barbie. What Barbie did for us was nothing short of a miracle. Not only did she revise and renegotiate the contract, but she made sure it was iron clad with protections for us. She worked day and night, while sick and on vacation, to make sure everything was running smoothly. She was on top of all the issues (and there were many, so many). She resolved them quickly, professionally, and many times very creatively. She found solutions to problems that could have prevented the purchase that no one else thought about. In the end, after almost a year of struggling to finally have a home, Barbie got us to closing. We have keys in our hands today because Barbie moved mountains for us. And as if that weren't enough Barbie was so friendly, nice, and caring. We felt that she genuinely wanted this for us just as much as we wanted it. Barbie protected us and made us feel secure after so many months of uncertainty. She was not only the best lawyer we've ever met, but also one of the best people.

Pick up your phone and call....

I was horrified and embarrased by the fact that I was trapped in a huge debt situation where harassing phone calls were unstoppable, until I approached Barbie Lieber at Lieber & Lieber, LLP. I was very much skeptical at first about the bankruptcy process and its benefits to me; however, Barbie convi...nced me with her incredible knowledge and understanding. Most importantly, she treated me with full respect and guided me through the entire bankruptcy process patiently with clear instructions and advice. I wouldn't have regained my normal life without her help. Thank you very much again, Barbie!"
