The best lawyer you can get

Barbie is the real deal. She's smart, caring, experienced, and hyper-organized—everything you'd want in a lawyer for this difficult period with many moving parts. Bankruptcy can be a nightmare, but Barbie makes it all seem painless. From the get go, she taught me every step of the process, delineated... what she'd need from me, and explained how she foresaw the outcome. She filed within a few short days after I sent her my documents—which is frankly unbelievable, knowing horror stories of other lawyers who are difficult to track down, or who take their time to get anything done. And of course: The filing proceeded in perfect order. Everything said on these reviews has been true from my experience. Barbie is a lifesaver. I can't recommend her enough.

BEST AND EXPRESS !!! :)

My Angel There was a night I was at work and I receive a call from my “lawyer “ who was filing my case >.<!! He never made me feel like Barbie did. With him it was I was never in peace stress the whole time and 7 months he didn't do Shi** So I look up in Google and found this beautiful lady I texte...d her and she texted me back in 2 minutes. She stated asking questions and it was on :) since then !! It took this wonderful lady two exactly days to file my case. Crazy right what one couldn’t do it in 7 months she did it in two days. Do I recommend this lady? Yes Pleaseeeeee !! I wish that everyone one who is going through this process would find her on the ways because she is simply the best !! The BEST !! Ok.. but this is not everything she made me feel like part of her family giving little tricks for 1st time mommy. She recommended me some books for my daughter. She is a hard worker EXCELLENT WORKER and a great human being ❤️ I know it’s hard going through this but this makes us feel that nothing is going all. And I can say more but I want people to have their own beautiful experience with her.

Made my NYC Bankruptcy filing easy and stress-free

When I got notified that my credit card company was suing me for outstanding debt, at the end of 2020 no less, when I'd become unemployed, I felt completely overwhelmed. I searched "NYC Bankruptcy lawyer," landed on Avvo, and saw Barbie's excellent ratings. I emailed her right away and she responded ...immediately. I am so glad I found Barbie. She is thorough, efficient, compassionate, and incredibly hard-working. She helped me file for Chapter 13 bankruptcy within weeks of contacting her, and she made the process as easy as it possibly could have been. While filing for bankruptcy can bring feelings of shame and fear, Barbie was in my corner throughout the process and prepared me for every step. I am so grateful to her; it is a huge weight off of my shoulders to not have the debt hanging over me as I try to get back on my feet financially. Hire Barbie, you won't regret it!

Highly recommended

Barbie assisted me on a case that stemmed from an abusive relationship where financial abuse was an issue. When Barbie helped me with my filing she would readily take my questions and answer my concerns immediately, never in a condescending manner. Highly recommended- particularly to people dealing... with high conflict divorces.

I met Barbie Lieber in Spring if 2019 and it feels like she saved my life.

I met Barbie Lieber in Spring if 2019 and it feels like she saved my life. I was in a real mess. You are never quite sure how you get to this point, I am a professional person with a job on Wall Street, but things were spiraling out of control. My Chapter 13 Bankruptcy stemmed from a very bad div...orce with crushing property settlement and attached IRS debt. When I met Barbie I had filed Chapter 13 twice before but both were dismissed (an out of state previous lawyer, inexperienced in SDNY courts took us down a dark path). It felt like no one in New York City would touch me. I had been trying to file Chapter 13 pro se (all by myself) for a third time with the same 2 creditors but it blew up in my initial 341 meeting of creditors. The Trustee basically said wrong forms go back and try again (have you guys seen all those forms?). Well I decided if this was going to work I needed to hire an attorney and luckily found Barbie Lieber, truthfully The Best Bankruptcy Chapter 13 Attorney in all of NYC. I knew it had to be Barbie because my first court appearance in SDNY (while trying to file in my own) and waiting to go in front of Judge Cecelia G Morris, an excellent, very fair Judge, I saw Barbie and how she interacted with the Trustee and the how much the Judge listened to her and how smooth everything was going for her clients. I had also seen her working with her clients at my first 341 meeting of the creditors and her clients were sailing through! There is obviously much more to this story but as we wound our way through this Chapter 13 process and I believe this was one of her most challenging, she never wavered. First, the mutual respect between Barbie and the Trustee and Judge were invaluable. Second, she was always thinking about the case and thinking outside of the box for solutions to any problems that arose, and there were a lot of them. Third, she was always fully prepared and made sure I was fully prepared for what we were currently dealing with and what was to come and she was always there to answer all of my many questions day or night. My Chapter 13 filing was confirmed in fall of 2019. In my opinion you will not find better Chapter 13 Bankruptcy Attorney than Barbie Lieber and you would be lucky if she decided to take on your case.
