Barbie Lieber was able to help my mom deal with a terrible situation after my step-father died, leaving her with well into six figures in credit card debt and no assets. Thanks to Barbie she was able to file for bankruptcy, and now she's got a new start and is able to live her life without fear of p...icking up the phone, and the constant stress of debt collectors. At the end of the day my Mom was so well prepared that the actual hearing was almost anticlimactic. Thanks Barbie!

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.

Barbie is very straight forward and takes the time necessary to asses if you are or not eligible to file bankruptcy. Her method and series of questions is accurate and efficient to lead in a successful case. She’s well experienced and knowledgeable and, I would recommend her to any business associate... that needs Chapter 7 or Chapter 13 legal advise. Bravo Barbie to the best bankruptcy attorney and a great job, I’m debt free!

I was $80k in credit card and personal loan debt after a contentious divorce. I had an income higher than the means test would allow, but child expenses let us go Chapter 7 instead of 13. No other NYC bankruptcy lawyer I spoke with thought this was possible during their consult, but after looking a...t my budget based on actual expenses from the last year she said we could go for Chapter 7. Calls stopped two days after we filed. She prepped me for the 341 meeting really well. My case was pulled by the US Trustee so I had a lot of extra questions in my 341 and they closed the meeting! Waiting for discharge now and I feel like I won the lottery. So amazing.

Barbie and her team were phenomenal! She answered many of my questions before I officially became a client, but once I signed on, she quickly got my paperwork in order, held my hand (virtually) through the tough parts, and answered my texts/e-mails/phone calls every single time. The whole process was... much less stressful with Barbie reassuring me and handling it seamlessly. I highly recommend Lieber & Lieber, LLP for your legal needs.
