Financial Planner

I first saw Leslie on LinkedIn providing hope to people that had been impacted by Covid. At the time I had been out of work for a couple of months due to Covid and my bills where piling up! I was frozen with fear and shame, I could not even look at how much I owed. Leslie and her amazing team have w...alk me through step-by-step getting back on track. They have made the impossible seem possible to me. I am a financial planner and having bad credit could literally mean me losing my entire career. Leslie and her team have stop this from happening. I am forever grateful!

Top Notch Financial Attorney and Law Group

I was referred to Leslie Tayne by a family member who is also an attorney when I confided in her that my divorce was putting me in dire straights financially. Leslie and her team sat down with me and discussed my options and guided me into a manageable Debt consolidation program which in turn enable...d me to avoid bankruptcy and foreclosure and begin savings towards a new home, as well as gain advice regarding what to include in my divorce settlement regarding marital debt to cover me financially in the divorce. I don’t want to think about where I would be right now, were it not for the Tayne law groups knowledge, guidance, advice, and professional expertise in navigating my way out of debt. All of my accounts were negotiated down (without me having to deal with the creditors) and put into a payment plan that was within my budget. I have since paid off the remaining debt and the accounts were closed and my credit score which had bottomed out is now coming back up. Thank you Leslie and the Tayne Law Group. I will recommend this group highly to all friends and family who need help getting their financial situation in order!!

Creditor-Client Resolution

Tayne Law Group was extremely effective and professional in solving my credit problems with my creditor. The law firm understands the audacity of the task of resolving these kinds of issues so its clients can rest assured knowing that the creditor will not be able to terrify or "prey on them." I woul...d recommend Tayne Law Group without any reservations.

Very satisfied with their service.

I've found Leslie to be very accessible, and thorough. She called my fears, at a time when I was was stressed out over how I was going make ends meet. Every time I've called everyone was so courteous and generous with their time when I had questions or concerns. Azfarr & Alexa were also very kind a...nd professional when I needed assistance with documents and electronic communications. I have been very happy with the service I have received at Tayne Law.

"I have come to greatly appreciate all of the qualities that Leslie Tayne brings to the table, both personally and professionally. She's smart and experienced and good at what she does, but so are a number of other lawyers. Leslie also has a good heart, sense of humor, strong sense of responsibility to her clients, and lives and practices by a code of ethics that many others should emulate, but don't. I have referred several clients to her, and they and I have been pleased with how she has dealt with their issues and concerns. I unhesitatingly give Leslie Tayne my highest recommendation."
