Retain Brenna. Your case will go smoothly.

Stop your search! Retain Brenna Mendelsohn because she will have your back & acts with urgency & effectiveness. The same day my credit union account was attached with a lien, she had it lifted. In hours. It was obvious bankruptcy was my only viable option. Brenna & Kirsten walked me thru all my optio...ns because they’re thorough. I found my advocates. She educated me about the myths and misconceptions around bankruptcy & the fraudulent practices of debt companies that are predatory in nature. Earlier this year I was in serious financial trouble, tried my best, but expenses were more than my income & had been for a while. Like many in financial trouble, the combination of medical bills and credit card debt had me drowning in debt. No one wants to declare bankruptcy but it feels great having a fresh start. And we all deserve that 2nd chance. Attorney Brenna Mendelsohn and her staff pointed out the law was created to help get us back on track. Compassion. I recommend Brenna. I spoke to 2 other well rated attorneys prior to her. She was head & shoulders above them. She reviewed my financial situation while simultaneously phone consulting. She gave me advice, then quoted a reasonable retainer. I hired her immediately. You should too. She walked with me every step of the way. Best decision I’ve made.

Satisfied Client

After searching unsuccessfully on our own for a bankruptcy attorney, I contacted the Berks County Bar Association. They put me in touch with Brenna Mendelsohn and it was smooth sailing from there. Brenna explained the process and costs over the phone per normal COVID-19 precautions at the time. Sh...e and her "girl Friday" Kirsten guided us through the process from the filing, to the hearing, and finally to the discharge order. It is such a relief and a feeling of renewal and we are very grateful for Brenna's professional guidance.

Brenna and Kirsten were great in helping me with my case!!

Brenna and Kirsten helped me with my bankruptcy case, and they both were very thorough in their research, and holding my hand throughout this process. They helped me get through the bankruptcy case very quickly. And the credit counseling course was very easy, and it helped me to see that I need to ma...ke adjustments to my financial and budget issues. Again I would like to thank Brenna and Kirsten for helping me with this case, and helping me realize that I need to make some changes in my life to keep me from making the same mistake again. Thanks again.

Outstanding Service

I was fortunate to select Brenna for my bankruptcy. She was very knowledgeable and walked me through the entire process and helped me prior to the discharge meeting and everything else along the way. Her staff is truly amazing Kirsten took every phone call and if I missed her she got back to me t...he same day. They never make you feel like helping you is a bother. Kirsten met me in the lobby if I needed to drop anything off and kept me updated constantly. Having a great attorney is important and Brenna is that but it is also important to have a great support staff and I dont believe there is anyone better than Kirsten. They make a great team. Best place to go if you need help.
