Midland Funding LLC

I was very nervous when I received the summons to appear in court due to Midland Funding suing me. I began to receive quite a few solicitation letters from different law groups. I contacted Tierney's office and the young lady, Meetu who answered the phone, explained the process and how no fees are ...to be paid out of pocket by me regardless of the outcome of case. I was a little hesitant to believe I didn't have to pay as it sounded too good. She sent me the retainer agreement which outlined exactly what I was told. I was please the documents I received were written in a matter I could understand as I did not attend law school. After I retained them as my attorney I was notified with in 5-7 days the case was dismissed and I was not required to pay. I do not plan on having to use them again for this sort matter but if you are reading this and hesitant on who should assist with your case I recommend Tierney's law office. Thank you again.

"Perfect Service"

I was being sued By Midland Funding and I had nowhere to go for help. Then I received a letter from Mr. Tierney offering help to me and to represent me for free. My son had used Mr. Tierney for the same reason of being sued by Midland Funding. He told me to call Mr. Tierney and see if he could hel...p me. I thought it might be a bit to good to get anything for free, but I contacted Mr. Tierney’s office anyway. Everyone that I came in contact with was very professional and helpful. I was assured that it would be cost free for me to be represented by Mr. Tierney. So, I took a chance and went with Mr. Tierney to represent me. His office kept me updated regarding my case at all times. It only took a short time, (and I am talking about just one and a half days); before they contacted me back and told me that the case against me by Midland Funding had been dismissed with Prejudice. What a relief it was to get this information. I received “Perfect Service” from Mr. Tierney and his staff. I do not hesitate at all to recommend Mr. Tierney to be the attorney to have your back against being sued by companies like this. Mr. Tierney was true to his word!! If you hire him and his staff, believe me, you will not have one worry while he is handling your case.

Helped when I needed it the most

I received an advertisement from Michael Tierney when Midland Funding brought a case against me for an old, trumped up debt. I thought his letter sounded too good to be true, but did a bit of research and decided to give him a call. Less than a week later, I received notice that Midland voluntarily d...ismissed the case with prejudice. Michael and his staff kept me informed throughout the process and took the time to answer all of my questions. I cannot praise them enough. I feel like I can finally breathe again, and am so happy I decided to call.

Highly Recommend!

I contacted Mr Tierney's office regarding a law suit that had been filed against me by a collection agency. His assistant spoke to me with compassion and respect and assured me that although there was no guarantee, that he was fairly certain they could get my case dismissed and the debt forgiven. We...ll, one week later that's exactly what happened. I received notification from their office that the case was dismissed without prejudice and that the debt would also be removed from my credit within 60 days. The company suing me also agreed to pay all of Mr. Tierney's fees so all of this came at no cost to me. I couldn't be happier!!
