Gave me hope and a fresh start when I did not think it was possible

Chapter 7 is not an easy or fast process. Even through a devastating hurricane in which we were all suffering, Patrick made the process as painless and efficient as possible. He explained the forms clearly, made sure I understood why and how information would be requested of me, ensured that I was co...mpletely prepared for the meeting of creditors and got me to the finish line in just a few short months from the time of filing. I am grateful that I had Patrick in my corner for my Chapter 7 Bankruptcy.

Excellent Attorney with a Great bedside manner!!

Patrick REALLY works hard for his clients and goes above and beyond the call of duty!! He is a super sharp and savvy attorney. I really felt in good hands with Patrick which is reassuring in desperate times. He always returns your calls promptly and keeps you updated every step of the way which is m...ore than I can say for most attorneys. His bedside manner is exceptional which is also a rare find in an attorney. Given the nature of the type of law he practices this is truly a remarkable quality. I imagine most people are feeling pretty desperate in a bankruptcy or debt situation ( I was) and he makes the process feel so much better. I can’t say enough good things about Patrick Wood. If you’re looking for a consummate professional that knows what he’s doing and isn’t going to let you down, It’s Patrick Wood!

Excellent and Effective

Attorney Patrick Wood was instrumental in helping me resolve what was a very traumatic and difficult time in my life. His professionalism and excellent communication skills made me feel confident that he could help me with my Chapter 7 filing. I am very grateful that he was able to obtain my Chapter ...7 discharge in just a few short months.

Stress Free Process

I didnt know what to expect coming into this process. I was overwhelmed with debt and facing job loss. Mr Wood made everything as stress free as possible and gave me hope for turning around my financial future when I didnt see a way myself. He really made everything simple and easy to understand and... always answered all my questions without ever making me feel like I was being rushed. I also appreciated his prompt responses to emails or messages. Thanks to him helping me, everything is starting to turn around.

Best Legal Representation Ive ever hired!!!!

Patrick is amazing at his job! I have never hired such a diligent and intelligent lawyer. He is extremely prompt with replies, even on the weekends he would write a quick email. I, for once, did not have to do the paperwork and give to him. He completed it in a couple days and filed my Chapter 7 Bank...ruptcy. He was able to take care of a pending judgement in the amount of $27k and also a speeding violation. I anticipated this drag out forever, but everything should be finalized in November. He truly is passionate about his clients and his work. I wish he practiced in other sectors of law. If you are contemplating Bankruptcy please give Patrick a call if you want it to be over and done with. One last thing I like about him is that he takes the time to make sure you understand your options and the Bankruptcy process. Thanks for all your hard work Patrick. I can now focus on getting healthy and getting back into the job market. Your services are greatly appreciated!!!!!! -Tim D.
