Amazing Lawyer

I can't begin to express my gratitude for Barbie Lieber. I've been struggling with the complications of my current Chapter 7 bankruptcy, tremendous amounts of debt, divorce and the closure of my business. I have no shortage of issues that make my case difficult to manage. I reached out to Barbie out ...of desperation and confusion on what to do. She talked with me for over 45 minutes and offered sincere compassion, honesty and solid information to move forward with. Having met with a discussed my case with 7 other lawyers, including one that I put on retainer and filed with, none begin to come close to the respectful insight she provided. She is knowledgable, friendly and I can't advocate enough for working with her. I deeply regret that I wasn't aware of her services before I invested in another lawyer. Going through the bankruptcy process is not easy and having professional, experienced representation is critical. Please learn from my mistakes and hire Barbie to help you.

Preference Action - wonderful job!

I run a small logistics company in Queens, NY. My company was recently issued a preferential action suit and they were asking for a relatively large sum of money back. I found Barbie Lieber's information through a search online and I'm really glad I found her. She walked me through exactly what she w...as going to do for us and explained everything along the way. She negotiated w/ the trustee and fought for us on several fronts. I'm not going to try and explain in detail what she did, but whatever it was, it worked. She is very knowledgeable and was extremely easy to talk to. In the end, we settled for a VERY small fraction of what the court was asking for. We are very satisfied and would recommend Barbie Lieber for any legal issues any small businesses may have.

Thank You

Dear Barbie- For over 20 years our business thrived through all economic conditions until the fall of 2008 when the bottom dropped out. Needless to say, we were not alone. A friend and associate of mine, and a client of yours, recommended we talk with you. As the ‘great recession’ persist...ed, our debt continued to climb to the point where we did not know what to do as we tried to hold it together until things started getting better. The intricacies of the financial world are a mystery to me. Fortunately, we had you lead us through the chaos and out of the wilderness created by the irresponsible behavior of the “Too-Big-to-Fail-Banks.” Thank you so much for your help. Now, I am relieved and able to focus on growing the business and am very pleased to report that we are rapidly retaking lost ground. This would have been impossible without you, your help, and your handholding! Best regards, John

Excellent Attorney

Barbie Lieber was excellent. Because I own a business, my corporate attorney advised me to find a very good bankruptcy attorney if I wanted to keep my business. And I found one. Yes, my case was more complicated than most, but even some of the simple cases were not discharged because of an incompet...ent attorney. The trustee was several hours behind schedule the day of my hearing so I heard many cases. Barbie's attention to detail and thorough understanding of the process got me my discharge, and I was able to keep my business I interveiwed at least 6 attorneys before choosing Barbie. Some of the attorney's gave me information that I knew was inaccurate (there are some very bad bankruptcy attorneys out there). Two attorneys told be to sell my business before I filed becuase it would be taken from me. However, when I called Barbie, she discussed in length (about 20 minutes) over the phone of how she could get me through the process. She prepared my case so well, the trustee only asked one question, then granted my discharge without me having to surrender my company. The trustee told me that Barbie did an excellent job. Of the 20-30 cases I heard prior to my case being called, it was the only compliment I heard the trustee give any attorney. Several cases were not discharged because the attorney did not complete all the necessary forms or completed them inaccurately. Barbie is so thorough that she called me over the weekend a couple of times to stategize for the 341 meeting. She was thinking of all the questions that could have been asked of me so I would be prepared. You don't want to sound unsure of yourself in front of the trustee. But because she prepared all the documents so thoroughly, the trustee only asked my one simple question. My bankruptcy was mostly because of personal guarantees on business debt so my company was being sued as well. Barbie gave me excellent advice on how to repsond to these suits without even charging me. That is how much she will go above and beyond for her clients.
