Quick, compassionate, Knowledge!! Barbie was able to get me my transcripts after filing for bankruptcy!!!!

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!!!

SIMPLY THE BEST

I probably won't have enough words to thank Barbie. I literally lived a nightmare for the past two years. Now I can breath, I can sleep, and I can enjoy my life all over again. My fears are gone along with my debt. My phone doesn't ring, my mailbox is empty, and nobody rings the doorbell at 7 o'clock... in the morning... I was an owner of several businesses that didn't survive the economic decline. My case was very complicated, and thus my life until I called Barbie. I found Barbie through the internet, saved her profile just in case if I have to file for the bankruptcy. I clearly remember that Sunday morning when I dialed her number and in my surprise that very same day she called me back. In my wildest dreams I never thought that an attorney will possibly do it. She was awesome, straight to the point, while I was crying out about the troubles I am in, she was taking notes.... The case was filed within weeks. 341 meeting could've not gone more smoothly and three months later I was free of debt!!! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU. If anyone ever will need an attorney please call Barbie right away. Very professional, quick, and passionate about her work. EXCELLENT!

Even grown ups have their heroes

Simply said Barbie Lieber is straight forward, patient and brilliant.Almost immediately she lifted the weight of my shoulders and returned my sanity. After being laid-off for two years, I used up all my savings and incurred debt trying to pay my rent and put food on the table. I also gave thousands o...f dollars to a debt consolidation company who never paid any of my creditors and my debt ended up in collection. I worked with the debt collectors while unemployed & after finally getting a job I happily called them like a fool to start a payment plan. But they were rude, vicious liars. After a verbal agreement on the phone,the NEXT day they froze my checking account & the Marshal took most of the money I had left. Plus they threaten to garnish my paycheck. I was living in a legal nightmare I could not understand, afraid to take time off from work to go to court as I tried to resolve this issue myself,I did some research and came across Lieber & Lieber. I took a chance & literally gave Barbie the last of my money & hired her. To my surprise in 2 days my bank account was released and the marshalls returned all of my money soon after ! The sleaze collectors crawled under some rock,and she went to court with me and helped me every step of the way. Well finally I feel like a can breath and move on with my life. Thank you so much Barbie!

Caring, Quick, and knows her Case Law!

Barbie helped me out in a big way. I was deeply in debt and defulted on student loans, to the extent where I had 25% garnishes on my paychecks. After a promotion, my income increased significantly, which meant the garnishments were getting bigger and bigger, but only paying two of my creditors. I ...called Barbie and she recommended a rush filing in order to prevent the garnishment of a large commission check. We were able to get filed the next day, and my plan has since been confirmed. Barbie was empathetic, knowledgeable, and willing to work overtime to make sure I got the best results possible. I would absolutely recommend her to anybody who is facing garnishments, judgments, or liens.

Barbie Lieber "The Greatest"

When I met Barbie Lieber, I was in tears. I had been fraudulently tricked into purchasing two houses by an ex boyfriend, in Queens and in Brooklyn. My son was in trouble with the law. I was divorced wth no one to turn to. Creditors were suing me. The banks were foreclosing on the properties. ...I was at my wits end, feeling as though I had no way out. Ms. Lieber took control of the situation. I am sometimes not focused and because I was such an emotional wreck, I really wasn't focused when I initially came to Barbie. Ms. Lieber caused me to become focused, organzied and less emotional. She was always there for me, responding to my emails and calls within minutes. She fully prepared me for the meetiing with the trustee. Because of her preparation, I was able to answer the questions asked by the trustee and did not feel nervous. She sat with me during the meeting with the trustee, which was so comforting. I have dealt with other lawyers in the past, but I have never come across another lawyer who is as devoted to her clients as Ms. Lieber is. My tears are long since gone, and now I am all smiles because of Ms. Lieber Thank you so much, Barbie
