Helped me alot

Mrs. Van Bergen was referred to me by a friend and I would refer her to a family member or friend now also. I had been sued and they took money out of my bank account and I had a lot of IRS bills from a long time ago. She also got the money back they took out of my account. She worked with me on p...aying her to. I did not think she could help me with the tax stuff but she did and now I do not owe them anymore. I had her cell number and called her after work all the time and she always was nice.

Deborah Van Bergen

Deborah has been fantastic in helping me with my bankruptcy situation. She stood with my every step of the way both in keeping me informed of the progress as well as helping me to make the right decisions and getting a reasonable plan in place to resolve my situation. She also went above and beyon...d in guiding me through my mortgage modification which was not a part of my bankruptcy plan. She has been a pleasure to work with and I highly recommend her services.

Worry Free

I hired Debbie to help me out of a very tenuous situation. She listened to me and knew how important this was for me to settle and she proved it in her actions. Debbie explained all I needed to know to make an informed decision during our first phone call. After that call, I knew I was not going to l...ook for another attorney for representation. She always made herself available to answer any question for me (day, night and weekends). Debbie made me feel as if I were her only client. She is trustworthy and non-judgmental. Debbie prepared me for what process I could expect. Walking out of her office after our first meeting, a great amount of worry was lifted off my shoulders. I knew I was working with the perfect person. She took care of my case the next day, gave me a call to let me know my case resulted in my favor! Which relieved me of stress and anxiety, I learned she is a woman of her word. I would recommend her services to anyone looking for representation. I can't thank her enough for how she was able to turn what seemed like a hopeless situation, completely around for me.

THE BEST LAWYER YET!

Every experience I've ever had with Deborah VanBergen was great. She answered every question, even when I felt I was bugging her or getting on her nerves. She assured me it is about me and I was not bothering. This is her job. I was comfortable with telling her anything she requested. She is qui...ck. She make sure you do what you are suppose to do. VERY VERY THOROUGH! Her price's are great. I would RECOMMEND her to anyone for any type of case. SHE HELPS in Every ASPECT from beginning to end. Her best PRO~ is that she follows up quickly and doesn't act like her case load is to heavy to respond. Thank you Deborah Van Bergen again!

Awesome Lawyer - Deborah Van Bergen

I hired Deborah about 6 years ago - financial issues. She is very reasonable priced as far as good lawyers go. She is down to earth and non-judgemental. I just contacted her recently on a non-related issue. Consultation was no charge and it is like talking to an old friend. She is very professio...nal in court. She is punctual and keeps you informed on what is happening with your case. Her staff is also friendly and supportive. I would recommend her to anyone. Deborah is the Best!
