Professional and Compassionate!

Ms. Nesbitt is extremely professional, intelligent, trustworthy and very compassionate. She immediately set me at ease in a very difficult situation. She took the time to walk me through every single step I needed to take during the bankruptcy process, and was always available to help. Her support a...nd that of her paralegal are insurmountable.

Ask Questions!!

I hired Laura based on reviews I’ve read here. I was facing a substantial amount of debt and with the advice from Laura, I filed Chapter 13. At the time, I believed that my debts were handled and when this was over, I would restart my life debt free. Unfortunately, I have a debt that I still have to... resolved. I didn’t receive a separate account for this debt and it was marked “surrendered” on my bankruptcy report. I assumed this debt was no longer my responsibility since I was created a new account ONLY for current fees that did not include the old fee. Now... I owe double the amount due to 8% interest per year. In fairness, I wished I asked more questions... and regret I didn’t asked what different codes meant. I paid for a service that I assumed would have taken care of my debts. I also feel I spoke more with Erin than with Laura. I don’t feel this would prevent me from recommending Laura but I would caution anyone seeking assistance with bankruptcy from any lawyer, to do more research and ask questions, don’t assume everything is included in filings and every detail will be broken down for you. Lesson learned and one, I won’t ever make again.

Thank you for reaching out regarding your concerns with debt that may or may not be included in your Ch 13 case. The situation you are describing does not make sense; all debts should be included and resolved through Chapter 13. We stand by our commitment to our clients and want to ensure that any concerns are addressed immediately. If you are a current or past client, please reach out to me directly at the office, we should be able to resolve this. -- Laura Nesbitt

Review on Attorney Laura Nesbitt

I hired Ms. Nesbitt to represent me in a Chapter 13 bankruptcy case. She was professional, very knowledgeable on the laws, walked me through each step of the process and continually keeps in contact with what I need to know. She made me comfortable in an uncomfortable situation. I would highly recom...mend her.

A Lawyer you can count on.

Ms. Nesbitt was very approachable and made you feel at ease with our concerns. Laura always has your best interest in mind. She is very quick to get back to any questions or concerns you might have. She explained in detail the step by step process of how the bankruptcy would proceed. When we came ...across a bit of a snag she was quick to resolve the issue.

Laura's expertise and attention to detail really helped me through a tough spot in my Chapter 13. I would abosulutely reccomend her to anyone!

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I endorse this lawyer. Why? If you have financial problems, you want an attorney to discuss with you the facts and then options on what to do. If bankruptcy is the right option, which chapter is important also. To advise , an attorney must understand the law, the issues and experience leads to great advice. Her over 100 questions answered on AVVO demonstrate her knowledge of such law and that is the type of attorney you would want. Give her a call..even if you already had advice, why not seek a second opinion too."
