Highly Recommended!

If you're reading this, you're probably getting the same collection calls I was getting. And you don't know what to do... Well Mr. Geller was able to stop the calls and give me a roadmap to starting over without the grief and stress I had been under. It's like a huge weight was lifted from my shou...lders. Thank you Mr. Geller for helping me get my life back!

Posted by anonymous | April 19, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

Very satisfied

I went through Robert Geller to file for Chapter 7 bankruptcy. They were quick to get me an appointment, look through my documents, and get the bankruptcy filed. I was very satisifed with the final results and all of my debt was discharged and I did not have to pay a lot out of pocket. Overall it ...was a positive experience during a bad situation.

Posted by anonymous | January 25, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Bankruptcy & Debt

Customer service can really lack

Obviously, I hired an attorney to help with my bankruptcy because I don't understand the process and hired an attorney to help with the process. The receptionists are very nice usually, but sometimes when I email with support or call with a concern or question the question is sometimes not really ans...wered or answered in a condescending tone. There are honestly times I will google questions to try and find the answers so I don't have to deal with the attorney's sometimes. Which makes me wonder why I hired one in the first place. I found that Frank who I have gotten a few times if really nice though and puts me at ease. Even though I have been in my chapter 13 for a little while things come up and I am nervous about doing it the right way and find that I am not really getting that much help. So, I just make my payments and go it alone. I do wish my attorney was Frank he seems better at answering my often nervous questions without making me feel like I am just wasting their time. I am not the expert on this and find it not really helpful if you have any questions as changes happen or life events happen.

Relationship: Worked for lawyer

"I have worked for Robert for more than 18 years. You could say that Robert has taught me everything that I know in the practice areas of bankruptcy and personal injury. He is recognized in the industry and by our colleagues as an expert in the field of consumer bankruptcy. Robert represents his clients passionately and vigorously. He has taught me to be a compassionate and empathetic counselor to our clients, many of whom are dealing with life's most difficult challenges and hardships. He will work selflessly and tirelessly until he has delivered the result and relief that his clients so desperately need and deserve. I am an intensive advocate for my clients because Robert Geller mentored my development as an attorney from the day I started as a law clerk with his practice more than 18 years ago continuously through my nearly 17 years of practice. To say it simply. . . Robert Geller is the best bankruptcy attorney that I know!"
