What a relief to meet Mr Cook. He is super kind, and really cared, and very knowledgeable on his stuff, I felt really confident the whole time with him even though it was a really difficult time. Gave me the best deal possible, and did a perfect job!
Mr. Cook was very knowledgeable about bankruptcies. He was easy to talk to, a great listener and a compassionate person. He answered all my questions, coached me on the hearing and attended the hearing with me. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a great Bankruptcy Attorney.
I have worked as senior staff attorney for the Bankruptcy Administrator for 8 years and before starting my practice representing debtors and creditors under Chapter 11.
After many years experience reviewing cases in bankruptcy, I now work at helping people and businesses reform and reorganize their debt outside of bankruptcy, still having bankruptcy available as an option.
As Senior Staff Attorney to the Bankruptcy Administrator, I reveiwed cases for abuse and prosecuted for such. I now represent individuals and businesses as debtors and creditors in Chapter 7.
Though bankruptcy currently makes up the bulk of my practice, I have practiced in many other areas including taxation, corporations, estates, criminal defense, civil litigation and appellate work. As such, I still represent clients from time to time in these areas.

My husband and I were very pleased with our lawyer. Despite the pandemic and face to face meetings not possible, we were in contact via email, fax and phone. Our case was resolved quickly and professionally!

Knowledgeable, Professional, Compassionate
Jeff treated me as though I was the most important contact for him throughout this entire process. He was conservative, accessible, and thorough. He took time to make me comfortable. I felt I had an ally in Jeff, all the way.

The Best Bankruptcy Advocate in NC and Our Warrior
Jeff Cook was the only person who was willing to help us through our financial crisis when no one else gave us any hope. We had seen many attorneys before finally finding Jeff Cook. These attorneys gave us poor advice, little hope, and almost destroyed us by filing the wrong type of case and giving us the wrong advice. Jeff devised a plan specific for us that allowed us to do what he taught us that bankruptcy was truly designed to do, and that is to save our home, part of our business and give us a new start. He took the time to fully explain our options and guide us through the whole process from start to finish. He understood that as individuals we might not fit into another attorney's cookie cutter expensive approach. As Jeff has guided us through this process, we have discovered that he knows bankruptcy law better than most. He is compassionate, caring, and a thorough professional. He expertly negotiated with our lenders and the court to find the best solutions for us. Based on Jeff’s past military and legal history, as well as our experiences with him, we would recommend Jeff Cook to anyone who needs a lawyer to guide them through any financial crisis. As a wise man advised us during our crisis, you really need more than just a lawyer or law firm, you need an advocate and a warrior. Jeff Cook is the best advocate and warrior.

Jeff is the best at what he does. He helped me through a very difficult time and I will be forever grateful. He is totally professional and has the respect of his peers. His years of experience translate into great results for his clients. He totally worked with my difficult situation and even though my case was relatively small in nature, he made me feel like a valued client.

Client
Very knowledgeable about his subject matter and how to go about business or resolving your case. I'd just say, if the communication back and forth was a little better, he'd be one of the best in town (not that he already isn't).
