Review Carl Teel

Accessible, competant and kind

Posted by

Completely new territory to us and we have asked a thousand questions that Mr Teel has answered until we understood. His staff are wonderful and find the answers if they don't have them. It would have been easy to make us feel bad about this situation- they've always been encouraging while giving us the hard facts we needed to proceed correctly. They have told us the truth when it could have cost them. I respect these excellent people and would recommend them highly to anyone in similar need.

Because of financial difficulties resulting from my husband's long-term illness, we contacted our family lawyer who referred up to Mr. Jerome Teel. Mr. Teel is Certified as a Specialist in Consumer Bankruptcy by the American Board of Certification. At our first meeting, I found Mr. Teel to be kind and caring; he put me at eas right away. He is a savvy lawyer: asking about facts; explaining my rights; reviewing my documents. I hired him and he has done a good job of keeping me informed about the process as it rolls along. I am very pleased with him personally and professionally and highly recommend him for your legal needs.

When I went to his office I was very nervous, however after explaining my situation and providing Mr. Teel with the requested information I began to feel better. He is a very pleasant person and his office gives off a peaceful setting. He explained all information to me very throughly and helped me to the best of his ability. When I left his office I was in tears... tears of joy. I am very grateful my friend Lisa recommended him to me. Thank you Mr. Teel.
