Truly a lifesaver!
About a year ago our company was served with a lawsuit from American Express regarding an unpaid debt on two account. As with many businesses, COVID wreaked havoc on our financial health causing us to get behind. Mr. Metzner and Mr. Mays were very understanding and worked with us so we could make payment to retain their services. Once we went into negotiations with AMEX, they were in constant communication with us as to what the status of our case was. They were able to get us a settlement that we could afford before we went to mediation, and now our business can continue to operate. I really do not know where we would be if it was not for their hard work and diligence. God forbid we are ever in this situation again, but if we ever are, my first call will be to Mr. Metzner and his team.

Superb experience and speedy settlement
Michael and Al certainly know what they are doing when it comes to getting the job done and ensuring a smooth settlement. From start to finish Al was always there to go the extra mile answer any questions thoroughly and leave no stone unturned. They were able to settle my case of $25,000 for literally penny's on the dollar within just 2 and half weeks from when I hired them. Definitely recommend 10 stars plus 1. Thank you guys

Outstanding Debt Settlement Attorney
My wife and I have used Michael’s expertise several times in the past and would wholeheartedly recommend him. He is a highly intelligent and conscientious attorney, as well as a very compassionate person. More recently, during a difficult time in my life (fighting cancer and the pandemic’s destroying my business), Michael was able to settle a complex lawsuit that had transpired over 5 years. Through all our matters, Michael was accessible and provided good advice and options for us. He fights for his clients and is a wonderful person to have on your side.

Finally over 700 credit score!
I just have to say I'm super please with the results I got from Mr. Metzner and his team. They were able to settle all my debts for less than half of what I owed. . The service was well worth what it cost. I can now get credit again. My score went up way faster than I thought it would. I’m over 700 now! They are Experts.

Case Settled!
This was my first time using a lawyer for debt settlement and was a bit apprehensive as to what I would expect. Mr. Metzner painlessly settled my case for 16% of balance. I would highly recommend using him and will be using him in the future. He is a great Lawyer to have at your side.

Settlement agreement and release
We received a letter from Mr. Metzner offering his services and help with a debt under my husband’s, we hired him to help us with the case, after a very short time waiting for results, Mr. Metzner sent us an email saying, “your husband’s case can be dismissed entirely, no settlement payment required”. We are very happy, and definitely we highly recommend Mr. Metzner to anyone in the same situation. Thanks a lot Mr. Metzner for such accomplishment. We really appreciate it!
