One of the most important phone calls I've ever made...

My 20's were a turbulent time and I made many bad decisions; one of those decisions was neglecting to pay my student loan. A $28,000 judgement was filed against me and my elderly mother, who co-signed the loan. Wage garnishment letters were being sent to my employer and I feared my bank account would... be frozen. Not knowing where to turn and unable to come up with the money to pay the judgement, I was finally desperate enough to confront the issue. I spoke with several lawyers who spoke fast and asked for large retainers up front. Not comfortable with the consultations I had received up to that point, I read the reviews for Barbie on this site and decided to give her a call. I was nervous and did not know what to expect but her personality and professionalism put me at ease. Rather than try to bedazzle me with legalese or stories of being golfing buddies with my creditors, she offered clear explanations and pragmatic solutions that worked within my current financial parameters. After discussing various options, Barbie was able to negotiate a settlement for less than one-third of what I owed and I was able to save up and borrow enough to pay the settlement. I can not describe the sense of relief that I felt when I sent the final payment or imagine trying to settle this debt without a lawyer as adept as her. I am now on the way to financial "recovery" am grateful to Barbie for her help. To anyone reading this who feels like there's no way out from underneath the burden of their debt, pick up the phone and give yourself a chance. The problem won't go away on its own and you don't have to face it alone. Finding a good lawyer that will fight for you is a great first step and Barbie is an exceptional candidate. Give her a call.

In financial trouble? Don't even think about considering another attorney!!!

If you are in need of expert legal financial assistance, do not go any further!! Aside from being a very comforting person for the client to communicate with , on the legal end she is an extremely proficient attorney, sharp as a tack, a firm, tough negotiator and tireless worker. Once retained, Ms.... Lieber kept me apprised constantly as to the status of my action and obtained a settlement in a few days that I am still amazed she was able to achieve. Take my advise, if you want expert legal representation, confident that your best interests are being considered at all times, Ms. Lieber is the attorney to use.

Barbie Lieber saved my financial life!

After receiving a notice of garnishment, I realized that I had to do something. I saw an Avvo commercial and posted my situation. Five attorneys responded within 15 minutes. Once I read Barbie Lieber’s response, I was sold. She spent over an hour on the phone with me and I felt very comfortable. ... I was drowning in debt and paying over $2,000 per month in credit card debt. I couldn’t put aside my quarterly taxes, therefore, sinking me further in debt. Barbie advised me to file ASAP and thank GOD I did. Two days later my bank account was frozen. However, since I filed before hand they had to release my funds. Now I’m in a chapter 13 plan for at least 60 percent LESS than what creditors were demanding. Until the bankruptcy, I risked falling behind on my mortgage, etc. Barbie Lieber surpassed my expectations and saved my family and me from financial ruin. I would highly refer her to anyone in need.

One of the best!

She really worked with me and prepared me for the meeting with the trustee. She even had to help out one of the attorneys that came unprepared to their meeting with the trustee. Some attorneys failed to fill out the bankruptcy petition and schedules properly, provide the documents to the trustee ahea...d of time and properly prepare their clients for the hearing. She knows what she is doing and I would recommend her to anyone. So glad that I contacted her!

Personal Attention

Picked from scanning possibilities on the internet for a solution to my debt problem, I chose to call Barbie Lieber. I have had matters with many attorneys, for very specific matters, over my lifetime. I have never been as satisfied by the attention to detail given to my problem, as I have been with ...by Barbie Lieber filing under chapter 7 on my behalf. To others out there with a similar problem: First phone call with Ms. Lieber; all of the details to questions as to wheter you are a client deserving of a fresh start, or not, start here. Then I was told what I was expected to do in supplying up-to-date, honest, and accurate information for her to work with. Organize it! And when you do, and she receives it, it will be dealt with ASAP. Don't compare her reasonable fees with anybody else. This is old school: If you do your job as a good client, all calls and emails are returned promptly. Ms. Lieber personally, not someone that represents her, is there with you in court...on one of the most humbling days that you will ever have. Work with a real attorney, be a good client; accept no substitutes.
