Outstanding legal advice, service and support!

This is the second time I hire Mr. Brodman I highly recommend him if you are struggling with your finances and struggling to pay creditors. Mr. Brodman provides top notch legal advice and services -- he is a specialized Bankruptcy/Divorce attorney -- and its important point out he performs legal du...ties in a very professional, seamless and transparent manner. My bankruptcy case was filed immediately and I was kept in the loop during the entire process. Most importantly, Mr. Brodman is highly personable -- and empathetic to his client's needs. His fees are very affordable and he will work with you to make a payment plan. Please do not hesitate to contact him, you will be extremely pleased!!!

Goes the extra mile

In 2016, I began researching bankruptcy attorneys. Mr. Brodman was recommended by a coworker, but since I live in Westchester I did not want to travel to the Bronx. I went to a few attorneys in Westchester, but I was unable to afford their fees. One of the attorneys recommended Mr. Brodman. The attor...ney informed me that "Dave is one of the best in the business, and he charges a fraction of other attorneys fees. I hired Mr. Brodman he was very professional and walked me through the entire bankruptcy process step by step. I am 3 years into my chapter 13, and due to life circumstances I fell behind on my payments. Mr. Brodman re filed my payment plan and did not charge additional compensation. I am a Registered Nurse, and I work crazy hours we were in his office past 7pm signing all my paperwork. I was so grateful he stayed late to help me. Mr. Brodman would send me correspondence through email, and then would go the extra mile and call to make sure I remembered to check my email. I greatly appreciate his due diligence. I never check my email, and it becomes flooded with spam mail. He stays late, and calls clients personally. I recommend him to anyone.

Terrible

Does not explain your rights. He would get a letter from trustee, like in my case, asking for additional money to close the case but wouldn't tell me why or bother to tell me if I reached the 60 payments required. It was only of my persistence to know the meaning of additional money that he explained.... He is rude, and out dated when it comes to correspondence. He still relies on postal services instead of emailing. I wouldn't recommend him to anyone.

Heaven Sent

I met Mr. Brodman in July of 2016. I went through a major break up. He helped me get my life back. I lost everything. I took out payday loans to pay my bills. The payday loans have 100% intrest. You just keep sinking. He worked with me on a payment plan to may my fees. Now I am on an affordable mont...hly payment. Mr. Brodman gets 5 stars for compassion 5 stars for professionalism 5 stars for being a very nice man

Efficient

Last year was a rough time for me I had just gotten back to work after having my fifth child and was swapped trying to catch up on over due bills and outstanding credit card statements. There was no way I would be able to make the money to cover all my expenses. After having a discussion with my brot...her about filing for bankruptcy he referred me to Mr. Brodman. I finally decided I would go for it and gave Mr. Brodman a call we then set up a face to face interview. Thought out our conversation he was polite informative and very ensuring. From our first encounter I knew I was in the right place. Mr. Bordman walked me threw step by step on ever procedure I will have to take, also setting me up for a easy and affordable payment plan to cover the cost. I am now debt free and on a new path to rebuilding my life thanks to Mr. Bordman. I would highly recommend him to anyone who would consider filing for bankruptcy.
