Great experience!

Barbie is such a patient and caring lawyer. She guided through the bankruptcy process, explained everything clearly and answered every single question I had, often responding to me during off hours. She also works lighting fast so you can get your paperwork done and move through the process quickly. ...Filing for bankruptcy can be very emotional but you’re in great hands with Barbie.

thank you

Barbie is very supportive. She is present all the way through the process. It devastated me as filing for bankruptcy was my last resort. Barbie helped me throughout the process from beginning to end. This review does not do her justice. I can't thank her enough.

Barbie gave me the most stress-free filing possible

Barbie is by far the best, most personable lawyer I’ve ever come in contact with. Due to my panic and feeling the need to get it over with ASAP once finally deciding on filing, I first signed on with a different lawyer based solely on his Google rankings, where he is typically the first one to appear... in any NYC searches. Big mistake. After being given the runaround for well over a month, with nothing more than a few 30 second phone calls to say he was “looking into my case”, literally nothing came of it when he deemed my case to be too complicated, simply because it required filling out the means test paperwork to explain my situation. For that I received not even a full refund (the work required for a few 30 second voicemails apparently equates to $500) and a referral to another lawyer, one who never even called me back for an initial consultation. Fantastic. As if deciding to file for bankruptcy wasn’t a stressful enough situation to begin with, these are the sorts of people you can look forward to encountering when actually going through with the process if you’re not careful! I give this background to really highlight just how amazing Barbie really is. This time I decided to do my research more thoroughly. After reading all the great reviews on Barbie, I contacted her and immediately received a response. Within 48 hours the paperwork was done and my case was filed. A month later I had my 341 meeting, which she prepared me perfectly for, and before I knew it I was done with this extremely stressful era of my life. I can’t tell you enough how worth her fee Barbie truly is. Rather than giving you the runaround or trying to make things seem more complicated than they need to be she breaks everything down for you honestly and with compassion. She took an interest in my life and didn’t pass judgment on me like I had experienced previously. From the initial consult, to actually filing the Chapter 7 paperwork, to the 341 meeting, Barbie made the process and simple and stress free as humanly possible. It’s also important to note that, after dealing with other lawyers who would put literally nothing in writing, I really appreciated Barbie’s rapid fire response to emails and texts to all the little questions that come up during the course of the Chapter 7 bankruptcy process. As you can see I can’t recommend Barbie Lieber enough. Learn from my own experience and go with the best from the beginning.

Barbie Lieber is a life saver!

Bankruptcy attorney Barbie Lieber is a professional of the highest caliber, and one of the sweetest people I have ever encountered. I am fortunate that my Chapter 7 bankruptcy case was handled by her. Barbie's understanding of the Chapter 7 bankruptcy process became quite clear after our initia...l conversation. That alone was enough to make me feel I was in capable hands, but Barbie went above and beyond, and I can't stress this enough, she really went above and beyond. I was an emotional wreck going into this process, the guilt and sense of failure was eating away at my ability to keep it together. Barbie helped put things in perspective, which I desperately needed. With her professional help and guidance I got through the filing process, and most importantly because of her I was prepared for my appearance before the court. I am an artist and prior to filing for chapter 7, I couldn't compose music or sustain focus on a project for long because the anxiety and stress was compounding in my head just like my credit card statements! Whenever I had a free moment to stop and think, all I could think of were my credit cards and how I was not in control of my life anymore. Now that the process has been completed I feel like a new person. I feel like I have been given a second chance at life, and I have been able to start composing music again! I highly recommend Barbie Lieber if you are considering filing for bankruptcy. Give her a call, you won’t regret it!

Cannot thank Barbie enough!!!

Barbie took on my complicated Chapter 13 case back in 2017 and helped me turn a very stressful situation into something completely manageable. She was there for me every step of the way even through 2020 when she helped me convert my Chapter 13 case successfully into a Chapter 7. I do not know what... I'd do without her guidance and preparation for both of my bankruptcy hearings. She is extremely knowledgeable and her experience is evident in how she handles the entire process. I honestly could not thank Barbie enough for everything she has done for me. She is a life saver!
