A truly wonderful attorney with a fabulous result, and a kind and caring human being.

Ms. Lieber helped me through a difficult and painful decision to file for bankruptcy with kindness, sensitivity and respect. I had a tough case and she was able to get me a great result. I shall forever be grateful to her for her hard work and determination in getting the best possible result for m...e. It was important to me that I found an attorney that would give me the time I needed when I had concerns and not talk down to me. I found her! Ms. Lieber is a genuinely kind person and an aggressive and hard working attorney. I had initially contemplated a Chapter 13 filing, and retained Ms. Lieber for that purpose, but after going through my case she discovered I was eligble for a Chap. 7, and proceeded that way, refunding some of my retainer fee already paid to her. She could have proceeded with the higher fee process, but she didn't, and I was very appreciative of that and of her determination to do her best for me. I would highly recommend Ms. Lieber to anyone considering bankruptcy as an alternative.

Leave It to Lieber!

When I thought about pursuing Bankruptcy, I didn't know who to trust regarding my messy credit score and finances then I came across the website: Avvo.com and I realized that this is the best choice I ever made in terms of selecting a Bankruptcy lawyer. Barbie Lieber is the lawyer who really truly h...ave the experience in dealing with Bankruptcy, it is her specialty. I compared Barbie with three other lawyers before I made my decision. Other lawyers were thinking how much money I can pay them and they didn't take time to look over the case. Luckily, I made the right decision going to Barbie; she is warm, strong, thorough, articulate, and she helps you to close the case as quickly as possible without any hassle. In addition, Barbie's paperwork was impeccable and efficient. As a result, Barbie Lieber is truly a result oriented lawyer who will deliver her promises 101%. I was so surprised when my case was done so quickly and I owe nothing now. I can start a new chapter of my life. "Barbie Lieber is exactly who she is on the website and even better!" She is a go getter tiger! Toast to Barbie! I will definitely refer her to all my friends. "Leave it to Lieber!"

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

Barbie is a lifesaver!

I finally made the difficult decision this year to come to terms and tackle head first all of my issues - health wise, physically, emotionally, financially, etc. I was tired and fed up with myself and the direction my life was going so I decided to take action, and filing for bankruptcy was one of t...hose scary decisions I had to make. I researched plenty of lawyers online, spoke with a few and even went to meet one for a free consultation which was horrible. The guy wouldn't even look me in the eye as he was going through my information and basically throughout the entire meeting! I knew I would just be another number to him and that scared me because this is my life and livelihood on the line. I called Lieber & Lieber after doing additional research and spoke to Barbie. What an amazing difference! From the very first call and meeting, Barbie took the time to get to know me, my situation, my fears and worries - she made me feel comfortable and reassured that not only was I doing the right thing in taking ownership over my debt but also that I wasn't alone in the process which is so important. She walked me through every single step of the process and with such amazing attention to detail that I finally could see a light at the end of this long dark financial tunnel. Whenever I had questions about anything (and I had many!), Barbie would return my calls or email me back so quickly with precise, informative answers that truly showcased her knowledge and expertise. She even took the initiative and would call me with updates and progress/status reports which was surprising to me but so unbelievably comforting. What lawyer does that? The day of the 341 meeting, Barbie met me early and prepped me with the appropriate ways to answer the judges questions and reviewed my information again to ensure I was as prepared as possible. She had all the documents and anything/everything that could be needed with her. She was so prepared, and the judges know this about her and respect her for it! She was the only lawyer in the room like that, the other ones were disasters. Some didn't even have their client's basic info with them, I couldn't believe it! And the judge called them out for it immediately. Also, I had previously signed on to a debt consolidation firm which turned out to be a fraud and tried to take over $5,000 from me. Once Barbie heard that, she went above and beyond what her services should have been and called the company to get my money back. And she did! Barbie is a lifesaver and choosing her to represent my bankruptcy was the best decision I could have made. I am so thankful and grateful to her as a lawyer and as a person. I don't know what I would have done without her. Thank you again for everything Barbie!!!

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.
