I can't speak highly enough about Mary. At a critical time of pay reduction and then job loss, my income was less than what I owed. I did an initial consultation with Mary and what I thought was in my best interest, wasn't. Mary took the time and put forth so much effort in helping me choose a path that I couldn't be more pleased with. What was so important to me was the TIME Mary took in laying out all the facts, presenting options, and coming up with a plan that was the very best fit for me. I also after 3 years am still impressed with the response time when I have a question. I email Mary and I literally hear back from her immediately. There are never long time periods of waiting. I believe this is because Mary puts herself in the shoes of her clients. She understands concerns and maybe even the fear you are feeling with legal terminology so responds quickly with full explanations that are understandable to you. With this being said, with the kindness that exudes from Mary to her clients, understand this..... Mary is tough, strong, and will fight for you. She will fight for what's right and what is in the best interest of her client. I highly recommend Mary if you are looking for a bankruptcy attorney. Her knowledge, people skills, and honesty are second to none.

I am currently filing for bankruptcy, a place I never thought I would be. Our severe financial hardship came out of severe medical hardship. We lost all we had built financially. I have been terrified of ever approaching this. I am among the people who have stereotyped lawyers, TV having a great influence on this. The best recommendation I ever received was Mary Bower Sheats. At the center of her top level competency is something I didn't expect to find - "Humanity". It is a humanity that makes me view the entire law profession in a different perspective. I entered her office with terror, which was immediately replaced by total confidence and total trust in who she is. Her presentation of a large amount of information that I needed - was done with such clarity and simplicity that even I could understand all the information given. The fact that I requested to write a review for her shows how she has opened up my perspective from "stereotyping" to having the greatest respect.
