Very pleased

My husband and I had to file bankruptcy and chose Mr. Pleva. We are both very pleased with the professionalism of both he and his staff. They were kind and considerate and very, very speedy. I would highly recommend him to anyone!!

dissapointing

would not recommend this lawyer. did not have any contact with him in 3 years of a 5 year bankruptcy. every time i contacted the office he was never there and the only conversations i had was with his secretary never with him. Then I find out he moves out of state and he or anyone from his office di...d not even let me know. I found out months later that he is practicing in another state. Then he closed his office in Michigan again without notice. I later found out that there were many of his clients in the same situation as me. Sad that a lawyer can take your money but not really care about his client or think his client deserves the respect of at least letting them know he is no longer in the state in which you hired him in. I still do not have any correspondence from him and he has been gone for months. If I never asked how would I have even known he was gone! The answer was I would not have known. I am so sad to say that my trust in the court system has been tainted all because of this experience with Joseph Pleva.

Very helpful and informative

Mr. Pleva has tremendously helped me financially and mentally. His extensive knowledge in bankruptcy helped me further understand my situation as well in making final decisions. He made me feel comfortable and relieved. He is very friendly and very responsive when it comes to answering questions etc.... He definitely has a way with positively helping in financially troubled situations.
