Jay I. Simon

I have been meaning to write a review of Mr. Simon for awhile now. You know how it is; I just never got around to it. Recently I had occasion to call Mr. Simon to help me with something that had nothing to do with what I had hired him for. I had filed bankruptcy over four years ago, so I wasn’t ex...pecting to be remembered or for Mr. Simon to want to help me or, if he did, he would charge me. I was so wrong. He helped me and even refused MY offer to pay him. I should have known how nice Mr. Simon would be. So here is my review: I have nothing but good things to say about Mr. Simon. Mr. Simon brings his heart to being a bankruptcy attorney. He is a magical guy, a very special person. One thing I noticed is the way he takes care of clients. He went out of his way to put me at ease and make me comfortable when we prepared my petition. He is so nice, so genuine. The guy is one of the warmest, most sincere people, gentlest, sweetest, kindest human beings I’ve ever met in my entire life. He is an empathetic, sensitive man. He listens and is compassionate. I am not exaggerating to say that Jay Simon is one of the best people on the planet. I am blessed to have met this person. He was the best part of my filing bankruptcy. The guy is everything you could possibly ask for in a lawyer and in a person!

Great, upstanding guy. Very good at what he does. Personable, patient and attentive. He made filing for bankruptcy feel not so overwhelming. He took care of everything and made me feel at ease. From the very day I hired him he took the reins and started the process. I did not think it would be as eas...y as it was. He made sure of every detail and made sure I was well prepared the day of my hearing. I appreciate his services SO MUCH.

Jay Simon is the sweetest, kindest, most amazing attorney or person I could think of. I have nothing but good things to say about him. Jay helped me through the bankruptcy process and it was actually a great experience. I was beaten down and Jay lifted me up. My life is better then when I first m...et him. Jay is a real gem-one of the good guys. He was my savior. He is on the side of the angels. I decided to file bankruptcy and called many attorneys. Almost without exception, the attorneys didn’t speak to me or, if they did speak to me, they were rude, nasty or condescending, as were their paralegals. None of them spoke to me like a person. The exception was Jay Simon. From the first call I knew he was the one for me. He was as sweet as could be. I could tell Jay genuinely liked people and cared about me. Jay has the ability to connect and relate. From our first meeting he looked me in the eye, he listened to my story and I felt like I was the only person in the world. He is selfless; a truly special soul. He is genuine-the real deal. He was interested, he empathized. He saw that I was scared and nervous and he went out of his way to make me comfortable and put me at ease. He is generous, compassionate, caring, nice and even funny. For the first time in a long time, someone cared; I was no longer alone. He provided personal attention. He listened. He has a calming influence. He went out of his way to make the bankruptcy understandable and easy for me. He paid attention to all the details and everything was done perfectly. Jay was the sweetest, most kind-hearted man I’ve ever met. At one point, I actually said to myself, "oh, my god, the man's a saint." I am not making that up. I actually feel bad that I am finished dealing with him now that my bankruptcy is over. He made me feel like a family member. He is a special person and I truly adore him. I would want him to marry my sister! You can’t beat that as a recommendation, can you? Such a good man, I just love him.

I have a name for Mr. Simon: “The Bankruptcy Whisperer.” Jay Simon is different then I expected a bankruptcy attorney to be like. He is just pure magic as a human being. I was very scared and, unfortunately, my fear manifested itself in making me an, admittedly, difficult bankruptcy client! ... I made appointments and didn’t show up; I forgot needed documents that I was supposed to bring, I asked the same questions over and over again, called and sent numerous emails, didn’t understand the easily understandable etc. You get the idea. But instead of getting angry at me, Mr. Simon was patience personified. He was tolerant, even-tempered, considerate and indulgent to me. So easy to work with. He has great “desk side” manner. Jay has such compassion for his clients. He is a big-hearted, kind and generous person. He understood the situation I was in and my fear, and couldn’t have been nicer. Such a good person, so caring, so understanding. He literally doted on me. I felt like I was dealing with a family member. He is one of the nicest people I have ever met. Jay never got upset that I stood him up a few times without bothering to call. He explained everything to me over and over with a sweet smile. Never complained when I inundated him with emails. Never got annoyed that I called just to confirm information I know he had already told me orally and in writing. He spoke in plain English, not legalese. He pretty much held my hand through the entire case. Made complicated issues understandable. He made the entire process painless. Such a thoughtful person-his various instruction and wrap-up letters left nothing unexplained and to chance. He is so down-to-earth and real. The sweetest guy I’ve ever met. See, like I said, he truly is The Bankruptcy Whisperer. He will calmly guide you through your bankruptcy. Meeting and hiring him was truly a blessing. If kindness counted for anything, Mr. Simon would be a millionaire. I strongly recommend Jay Simon and encourage you to call him if you need a bankruptcy attorney.

Never in my life did I see myself filing bankruptcy. I've been working since my early teens, always had money, and was debt free my entire life. Since 1997, I've been self-employed. Business was booming, until two years ago when the recession struck. I went through my entire life savings keeping ...my business alive. I no longer could afford health insurance, and last summer was hospitalized for a week, needed emergency surgery, and couldn't work for several months. For the first time in my life, I was flat broke and in debt. The hospital and credit card companies called me from morning until night. I didn't know where to turn, and realized I needed to file bankruptcy. After interviewing four bankruptcy attorneys, I choose Jay Simon, and that was the best decision I made. Jay immediately took action in handling my case and was well-prepared in the court room; because of that, all went smoothly. Jay is a kind-hearted, empathetic and compassionate man. Filing bankruptcy was one of the hardest things I've ever done and Jay got me through this difficult time. If you are in need of a bankruptcy attorney, run - don't walk - to Jay Simon. Jay is the best.
