Beyond the Pay Packet

“Life comes at you fast,” notes the advert. And the unexpected happens to the most careful people. That’s how my family ended up faced with bankruptcy; personal deep research and consultations proving it the only practical alternative then. Face it, pay the debts. Time was all we needed. Brochure fr...om the Court gave us a list of legal consultants. Prayerfully, we chose Attorney Wayne Clark. Threatened with foreclosure and pressured by debtors, we were challenged, wary, and skeptical, to say the least. But, from day one, Attorney Wayne Clark proved himself a patient educator, meticulous researcher, and a strict lover of law motivated by a professionalism tempered with strong human relations skills. To better describe what we learned, please, see our listed observations in brief below: Patient educator: We began probing incessantly from minute one. He took us on smiling, patiently educating us in detail on Bankruptcy; our knowledge notwithstanding. “I wish I’d started this job earlier,” he said, when we commented on his noticeable passion. How comforting to find large gaps in our knowledge of even our well-researched chosen chapter 13. Our discovery? He loved his job and was ready for both the short and long haul should it come to that. Meticulous researcher: Openly honest, he took pains and the needed time to research every point. Then, he customized every action to our unique situation. He was as detail minded as frugal in his use of both data and information. To the book and the spirit, too. A strict law lover: In less than an hour of our first consultation, and two meetings later, we knew we had a strict law lover and anxious fighter on hand. Everything had to be pegged to a law, a statute, a precedent. So, he made us prepare very well to satisfy every whim of the court; and the Court appointed trustee representing the debtors. It was a daunting task, but his interest in our welfare kept him on top of things. Great Interest in client’s welfare: Fortunately, his deep interest, we found, went beyond a paying job. It was genuine. We met any time and day it was needed. He agonized over issues so we would not have to worry over anything. Professionalism tempered with a strong desire to see us succeed. It was all done through effective communication. Excellent Communicator: Mr. Clark linked with us by phone, email, and text. He was the fastest, most effective, and reliable communicator. He never missed a bit, answered questions deeply, with a knack for clarification. That, was one of the best communication we had ever seen in all our forty-six years of professional life. Result? We were well informed. That alone allayed our fears and anxiety. Well Informed: Throughout the whole process—in court or in his office—he always kept us well informed of current and next steps. In court, he knew when to appeal to our human condition, and when to apply legalities in our favor. Then, after court hearings, he shared implications and future moves. And, he ensured continued support. Available support: Through snow and ice, he was always available to work on our case. One time he went on a mission. Personally, and in detailed clear emails, he told us of his backup. As if by design, Mr. Bill Kehoe, esq.—the gentle, knowledgeable associate with a friendly, soothing bass-y voice—kept the process going as if Mr. Clark were still in town. Their relay was formidable. True Value: And the charge for all those grueling hours, challenging sessions, mind stressing issues, and taxing procedures? $3500 to $4500 at face value; as set by law. Even here, they made it affordable and also split their charge into manageable bits for easy payment. Poised for a final favorable judgment, we withdrew the case based on a technicality. He was right all along; resolve the issue through other means, he said. We agreed. We had difficulty parting company. He so impressed us we have listed his office in our good books. We surely need services like this.
