I must admit this was one of the hardest things I ever had to do. I'm a new mom, of a 15 month old, out of work since she was 2months old, single and now my savings are almost gone, the debt collectors are at my door (figuratively speaking) and for the first time ever I'm broke and out of work. Ne...ver thought I'd need to file for bankruptcy but I did. When trying to find a lawyer I was afraid of getting scammed. I found Barbie all over Google and everyone said how great she was. So I called her and a few others just in case. Immediately she asked me about my situation, I felt like she understood me soon after we started talking unlike the rest. After that first conversation, she said she would email me so I could have all her contact info, and contact her if and when I decided to file. Which she immediately did. No pressure no fuss again unlike some of the others I called. Throughout the process she was there ready to answer all my questions. When we went to the 341 meeting she was the only attorney there. Every other attorney had the same representative there to represent them. She's the only one that held her client's(me) hand from beginning to end. Sadly I watched another lady get screwed bc her attorney wasn't there and the rep wasn't well informed on that individuals case. I am so grateful to Barbie for really having my back. I would recommend her to anyone who finds themselves in a financial situation and doesn't know where to begin. She was great at explaining all my current and future options should my financial situation change.

My experience with Barbie was just amazing. Our initial conversation involved an explanation of my nightmarish financial situation (never-ending calls & letters) where I first believed I needed to file Chapter 13. To my surprise, Barbie actually explained that I would qualify to file Chapter 7 as wel...l as to be able to keep my vehicle. Barbie was able to explain the process and assisted me by asking all the right questions. Within the days leading up to my 341 meeting, Barbie took additional time from her schedule to coach me and this helped keep me calm and prepared me for my hearing which concluded with a dismissal. Barbie is caring, determined, and just an overall excellent lawyer.

Barbie Lieber is an outstanding bankruptcy lawyer. I have a good job as a college professor, yet I managed to get myself into an unwieldy financial mess. I had overextended myself with credit cards, medical bills, student loans and retirement loans. After I made the decision to file for bankruptcy, I... called Barbie because other people recommended her highly. That said, I knew to expect a lot from her, but she did so much more than I ever bargained for. She designed for me a exemplary Chapter 13 bankruptcy plan; a sound, concrete budget that allowed me to cover all my daily living expenses so I never had to worry about garnishments or levies; and she found a way for me to repay my retirement loans in full. She helped me keep my creditors at bay, which gave me peace of mind. Provided I comply with my chapter 13 plan, all of my unsecured debt will be discharged, my student loans will be significantly reduced, and no creditors can contact me again. At first, the thought of filing for bankruptcy overwhelmed, and nearly paralyzed me. I needed some hand holding along the way, and occasional reassurance that everything would be alright. I had many questions about how bankruptcy works and what to expect. Barbie answered all my questions and provided me with the support I needed. I don't remember the last time I worked with anyone so organized, thorough, and sensible. She is a consummate professional: ethical and honest, affordable, and accessible by phone and email always. She returned all my messages at lightening speed. I never felt alone or uninformed, and there were no unwelcome surprises along the way. Ever. In court, she knows all the ropes, which helped me relax. Filing for bankruptcy is a big step. My decision to entrust Barbie Lieber to help me take control of my finances was one of the best decisions I've ever made.

Two years ago I stepped out, sacrificing everything to move to NY. I had no idea that my life would fall apart. After two years of barely managing my existing debt, having taken a 90% decrease in my income, I was faced with the threat of garnishment of my petty fellowship wages. I googled BR attorney...s and thank goodness Barbie was on the short list. After a brief consultation via phone, she scheduled to meet with me the next day - informing me of all that I needed to bring. The meeting was long and I left feeling confident that my matter would be resolved. Barbie was patient, thorough and kept me well informed throughout the entire process. My situation was quite complicated considering I had several properties, and several sources of "petty income" but she gave it her all. I was well informed from the beginning to the end and she took extra effort to ensure that I completed additional documentation. Most importantly, she is such a great study that she was able to prepare me very well for my meeting of the creditors. Hopefully, I'll never have to hire her again but if I did I would in a heartbeat. It goes without saying that Barbie gets my highest recommendations.

In april of 2009, I filed for bankruptcy. thinking all of my debts were clear. I reached out to one of the creditors, which was a college. In hopes of getting my transcripts, I reached out to the college to find out that the college was originally left out of the contract. the college and the collect...ion agency refused to acknowledge the release of the debt(since it was not a student loan, the debt can be legally discharged). after many attempts to talk to the collection agency, college and my previous attorney(with no help from them). no one was willing to help, that's when I found Barbie Lieber, she quickly took notes and got a grasp of my situation. she was able to determine that debt was discharged even though it was not included in the bankruptcy contract, there for leaving me eligible to receive a official transcript. she fired off a letter to both the college and the collection agency. getting the collection agency to refund a payment I sent in order to receive my transcripts and to clear my remaining balance, leaving me in good standing with both. Barbie was compassionate, efficient, and speedy, I hired Barbie 4/5/2013, by 4/15 I had a responses from the collection agency and a refund check in the mail. I truly will recommend barbie to all and any friend who needs helping in whatever field Barbie specializes in. As Barbie produces results and all her clients seems happy and satisfied with her services. In short, if you need something done quick and right Barbie is your Lawyer!!!! She literally left me over the moon!! I can now transfer to another college and proceed in growing towards my future! thank you so much Barbie!
