Bankruptcy

I would love to recommend you hire John Carter Morgan as an attorney. I filed for bankruptcy and they were beyond helpful. They went over the whole process, helped me fill out all the paperwork. Anything they needed they called or emailed me. Everyone In the office was so friendly and professional.... I can’t thank them enough for all their hard work and help to get me filed correctly.

Thank you Jamie! You have been a pleasure to work with and to work for. We will remain ever vigilant as the process winds up and afterward. We never hesitate to put creditors in their place when they disregard the bankruptcy laws! Thank you again!

FREEDOM FROM DEBT

My Wife of 46yrs. went to the Lord alittle over a year ago & when she went her Social Security went with her affecting the monthly house hold. Bareley scraping by and I decided enough is enough.

Very comfortable to work with this team!

From the first phone call to the last day, Mr. Morgan and his team were very supportive, reassuring, and professional. Upon initial consultation, Mr. Morgan made me feel comfortable with his very laid back demeanor and wealth of knowledge; I knew I had chosen a great team to help me through my financ...ial issues. I chose Mr. Morgan and his team based off of the reviews on google and now can attest to their accuracies! Thank you very much Mr. Morgan and team!

Best of the Best!

Not sure where I'd be today without having contacted New Day Legal. Even after I was no longer an active client, they have still been there for me for financial advice and help throughout it all. Excellent firm!
