Excellent attorney

Otto is the best law attorney I have ever worked with. From our first meeting, he explained everything to me in terms I could easily understand and was always very responsive when I had questions outside of our meetings. I would highly recommend him.

Otto Berges and his team saved me from financial ruin!

Mr. Berges was referred to me by a family member. I was facing default and possible lawsuits. I knew from the initial consultation and conversation that we had, he was not a typical lawyer. It was very clear that he genuinely cared about me and my situation and once I made the decision to move forwar...d, I felt confident that I was going to be ok. Sure enough, all the crazy and annoying collection phone calls and letters immediately stopped. Within a few months, I would say 80% of my issues were already taken care of and there are only a few small things that are still being finalized. I am going to refer everyone that I know that can benefit from his help. I cannot thank Otto and his team enough! What a great way to start the new year!

LGC-What Are You Doing For Me?

About 10 months ago, Legal Guardian Center took over my account from a company that went out of business( a debt settlement organization specializing in settling credit card debt at a reduced amount). This company gave me excellent service and communicated with me very well in a professional & courte...ous manner. When LGC took over the account, I was under the impression that they also were a debt settlement company. It was only recently that I learned that they are a debt dismissal company instead, headed by Otto Berges. I still do not understand how debts are dismissed & have never received any legal advice from Mr. Berges. In fact , I have never received anything by mail until recently which was advice on paying taxes on forgiven debt (which my CPA is handling for me anyway.) I am also suspicious due to several complaints from the BBB against LGC plus the fact that LGC is not a member of the BBB. LGC does not guarantee anything. What are they doing for me ? Why have I received no legal advice? Am I paying them for nothing? I am a senior citizen with extreme financial stress & very concerned about the high payments to LGC. I am trying to do what is right but have little confidence in your services. Now is your opportunity to reassure me of something positive & prove to me that you are working in my best interests.

It is unfortunate that a negative review as been posted in this very public forum as any issues should have been addressed first through Guardian Legal Center. Also, if your name were public, then it would assist in you being contacted as well as ensuring that any and all issues are met with your satisfaction. If you choose not divulge your name and allow this negative comment to be present, GLC would still like to help you in any way, so please contact them at: [email protected] and indicate that you are the unhappy Avvo client. Thanks and allow this to serve as the very same opportunity to reassure you of something positive.

Got my the Results I wanted for My P.I. Case

I told Otto I would give him a good review if he gave me good results, I am very pleased with the whole experience. The talks with the insurance company were much shorter than I ever imagined. I am very pleased with the results.
