About Kevin
Biography
Your debt problems have solutions will not be as simple as deeding all your property to someone else or lying about what you own. I promise not to advise you on fashion, so please don't tell me what your hairdresser advised you to do. Also, please don't tell me about the guy you heard about who ran up his credit cards before he filed bankruptcy. Funny how no one ever seems to know the guy's name. Real solutions to the problems require professional analysis, time, education, and effort. The problems did not develop overnight, neither will the solutions. Call me for an experienced ear and insighful suggestions to solve your debt problems. And oh, don't call if you are just shopping for the lowest price, you won't find it here.

Outstanding knowledge of Chapter 11
Mr. Gleason took the time to answer my question thoroughly. Unfortunately he is not local to me and could not take on my case. I would highly recommend him as a compassionate experienced knowledgeable attorney who excels at his craft. It is unfortunate that there are not more like him in the Jack...

My highest recommendation - Stand out advocate and outstanding resource
First, Kevin has proven himself eminently knowledgeable. I was faced with so many complicated issues and after wading through numerous incorrect messages (even guidance from local attorney), it was Kevin time and again that had the right answer. He does amazing research and spends the time to ensur...

Over the moon grateful!
I had a simple question regarding a car in regards to planning to file Chapter 7. My question was a simple one that no other attorney could or would answer for me immediately. All I needed was to understand the exemption situation and he explained it perfectly! Thank you!

Doing the incredible
He took an incorrectly filed bankruptcy case which was used to stop a foreclosure sale and got a hearing within 10 days of the filing to get it anullled and the sale went through. Fast. Efficient. And knowledgeable.
