What a relief

We were not sure about filing but now that we have, it was a very good decision. Laura and her firm were always available to answer questions, they guided us throughout the process and provided the support needed. Any questions we had were always answered and we never hesitated to call because everyo...ne is friendly and willing to help us. We now feel a great deal of relief and feel we having gotten a fresh start.

Fresh Start

Before bankruptcy I was under unimaginable stress from the debt I was carrying. It was my good fortune to have been referred to Harris Courage and Grady. They were engaged with me at every step of the process, from the initial interview to the final discharge. No question was too insignificant and al...l questions were answered with patience and courtesy. I never felt as if I were a bother. They are expert in bankruptcy practice and I have been given a fresh start thanks to their efforts.

unforeseen life changing situations

Ms. Courage and her staff were very supportive and efficient. My financial business situation drastically changed 2 years ago and then approx. seven mos. ago a surgical procedure ended with a physical disability and extreme expenses. It was an emotional decision which went directly to my pride and h...istory of financial responsibilities. The entire staff were very compassionate and extremely efficient, Most impressive was when she asked how I felt and shared a level of caring I never expected.

  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
