Posted by Keith | March 19, 2022 | Hired Attorney | Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

Professional, responsive, and upfront

Attorney Ozment and his staff were extremely helpful in guiding me through my Chapter 7 case. From the first meeting, I knew that I wanted his office to represent me. He outlined my options, explained everything about bankruptcy and filing simply and clearly, told me how much it would cost and paymen...t options, helped me to understand the differences between the various chapters, and followed me through the process every step of the way. A week before my trustee meeting, his office scheduled an appointment for me to talk with Atty. Ozment by phone so he could explain the trustee meeting, how it would work, what questions I might be asked, and to go over information in my petition to make sure I understood all the details in the document. I really appreciated the time that he took to do that as it helped me be less nervous for the meeting. The staff in the office were also very helpful, kind, and supportive throughout the process. I also appreciated that they were responsive to emails and respectful of my time and commitments through the process, too. Highly recommend!

Caring, Professional, Responsive

From my initial consultation to the recent conclusion of my bankruptcy, Drake and his staff have been courteous, caring, knowledgeable, professional and responsive. Their insight and strategic intuitiveness in dealing with the trustee was always very impressive. Their caring professional accommodat...ion helped me make it through. Drake also has always had engaging and welcoming front desk help. All of this combined to make getting over this life hurdle as positive of an experience as possible.

Thank You for Excellent Service!

Kenneth Ozment is a very caring and professional attorney. Everything was explained to us in detail, and there were no surprises or problems through whole process. Tina Costa was always ready to respond to our every question and concern. There never was an unreturned phone call. She always prese...nted the information to us in a very straight forward and common sense manner. Tina even went out of her way to help us with a last minute emergency in order to help us purchase our next home. Without her expertise we would not be home owners today! We consider ourselves very fortunate to have found Kenneth Ozment and his exceptional team to handle our Chapter 13 bankruptcy. They made what was a very difficult time for us much easier. We always felt confident because we knew our case was in good hands. I would highly recommend Kenneth Ozment and to anyone considering a bankruptcy.

Bankruptcy Lawyers with a heart!

I filed Bankruptcy in 2009, during the real-estate crash. My first appointment was with Drake Ozment himself, he was extremely professional and understanding of my situation and guided me through every step, never hesitated to answer my questions. For me, bankruptcy left me feeling like a tremendou...s failure, Drake Ozment and his team was always courteous, very helpful, and kind. Five years later, if I get correspondence of any kind and I call the Port St. Lucie office, I am greeted with respect and professionalism. Tina is EXTREMELY helpful, if she is unavailable, with-in half an hour she returns my call. I am more than pleased! Jackie G.
