Tracy Lynn Updike

This lawyer....I just can't say enough about! Going bankrupt is not an easy decision, and by any means should always be the last resort. When it is the ONLY thing you can do, Look NO FURTHER than Tracy Updike! I already felt horrible over my predicament, and had been in contact with a overly popular ...bankruptcy company. It had gone as far as actually having an assigned lawyer. But I needed someone to help me access what was best for me, to be there to answer questions that were not so black & white, but pertained to my case, and situation. To help me see the big picture. I received anything but this with that other lawyer, who he and the company made no pretense to make me feel like a number. That's ALL they saw, a number that said dollar signs. I'm convinced in my heart had I gone with them, I would regret it now. When I would call ready to give money someone would pick up in 3 seconds...now call with a question....call wanting advice...yeah have a good time with that..... 3 times I called to give a check to hold, and 3 times I called back to cancel. After searching and searching the internet for someone who would just answer my questions, I...FOUND...TRACY! When I called, SHE answered. I quickly told her my story through tears, among this that I was broke, she didn't hang up on me or tell me she couldn't help. She had me to make an apt. And you see how on this site it says free 60 min. consultation? Yeah this compassionate woman met with me for about an hour and 1/2- 2 hours!!! And I hadn't hired her yet! She answered all of my questions, and needless to say I walked in still feeling like a low number, but when I walked out. I was a HUMAN BEING! My life was not over, this is NOT the worse thing that could happen. There is life after bankruptcy! And a lawyer can be compassionate, kind, very knowledgeable, and treat you with dignity. I knew leaving there that if it was my decision, I didn't have to look any further. That WILL be your experience with Tracy! Once I emailed her a question very late at night so I never expected her to answer. I kept forgetting to email her through the day, so only sent it at that time to make sure I got it out the way. To my shock, she emailed me right back that late!!! She never left me hanging. If she didn't get back to me immediately, she always does in a timely manner. She will honest with you and tell it like it is, but she will be there with you AND for you! And top it off I paid $500 less than that other bogus company was charging. When bankruptcy is the ONLY decision, Look no further folks!!!

Bankruptcy is a life altering experience. To have a highly adept legal counsel to steer you through the process and fight for you in the times when it becomes necessary, Tracy is a real warrior. I am just finishing out my Chapter 13 case in the Middle District court and she is an absolute blessing ...-- I HIGHLY recommend: Tracy L. Updike, Esq. Before I went to the law firm where she was staffed, I had filed for Chapter 13 with some "other" firm that apparently knew nothing about bankruptcy law and could quite possibly have had my case dismissed from the very beginning...failure to file certain documents, to be exact. Tracy is very knowledgeable and simply the greatest person to work with; very friendly, supportive, and a valuable asset to any firm she chooses to work with. A personaL note, "Tracy, THANK YOU for your expertise and delivery of great service!"

I spoke to many different people. Mostly Debt Consolidation Companies. Which I knew I would never be able to afford any of those payments. I then thought Bankruptcy may be the best way to go. But everyone talks negatively about actually going through with a Bankruptcy. Tracy was very personable, I di...d not feel judge by her at all (Which is something I wanted). The fears I did have Tracy explained everything in detail to me that I understood. To know it is possible one day to have a good credit score again. She always answered my emails back within 24 hours. I would defiantly recommend her to others.

I/wife/company went through an amazingly difficult period, where all three were embroiled in a vindictive lawsuit. During this time, I had become disabled and unable to work. I couldn't defend the lawsuits against a large corporate team of lawyers. Needless to say I have had the need of a multitude o...f lawyers. Tracy was the only lawyer that listened, and I dealt with a team of lawyers for about 1.5 years. Tracy was very empathetic to our situation. We were flat out done. Instead of chasing us away like most lawyers would and did, Tracy worked with us and cared about our plight. She went way above and beyond than what her scope rashly was. She was a lawyer and a person that could empathize with the plight of her clients. A lot of lawyers we worked with our interviewed were perplexed and confused as how to handle the case. Tracy wasn't daunted or confused. She said, "This is nothing. I got this!". Tracy definitely supported her confidence with exceptional knowledge and kindness. If you are searching for a bankruptcy lawyer, look no further than Tracy Updike! You will regret going somewhere else. Stop your search here. You will be wasting your time and potentially jeopardizing your future!

Bankruptcy is frightening. Tracy made it bearable. She was straight forward, easy to interact with, and did an outstanding job. She has a friendly demeanor, vast knowledge of the law, and a genuine desire to do well for her clients. Tracy laid it all out for us right from the start. She let us kno...w what we needed and gave us time to gather the information. Her examination of our records was thorough and we were astounded at how much time and energy she devoted to us in the free consultation. Afterwards, we had a secure feeling of where we were and what we wanted to do. Throughout the process, Tracy kept us informed. She also handled our multiple questions with prompt and helpful responses. She maintained a casual and highly competent manner. Not once did we ever feel judged or mislead by her. Having a pleasant personality, superior communication skills, and outstanding competence makes Tracy a top-notch attorney! Filing for Chapter 7 Bankruptcy is gut-wrenching. Tracy took a lot of the uneasiness out of the experience. We’re thankful for her excellent work and happily recommend her services.
