Best Bankruptcy Lawyer Ever

Posted by anonymous | April 22, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

BEWARE go elsewhere, hear me now believe me later.

When I first met Joe he was a nice guy and continued to be even after I paid in full and agreed to a 400.00 extra charge for him to include something that should have been included in the chapter 7 bankruptcy. Once the bankruptcy was discharged he sent me a bill for 1400.00 extra dollars, when I aske...d he said that there was a charge for more work he had to do on my case. I told Joe that we had already agreed on a price and that I was not able to pay more. Joe then tried to get me to enter into a payment plan for the amount he was asking for. I told Joe I did not ever agree to this amount of money after I had already payed him in full for the bankruptcy he advised he would sue me for the money he said I owed him. Today almost a year after my bankruptcy and after rebuilding my credit that I worked so hard on he served me with papers to sue me. I had already spoken with another Attourney who is going to deal with this issue who said he had heard about Joe and his way of doing this to people. BEWARE do not put yourself into my nightmare.

This person agreed to pay me to try and get a $220,000 child care debt (owed to the county) discharged in Chapter 7. No other attorney would even consider the aggressive strategy I took to get this otherwise non-dischargeable debt discharged. I am likely the ONLY attorney that has gotten this kind of child support obligation discharged in this state. I explained and the client agreed to this strategy that could cost as little as $600. Unfortunately, I could not proceed as originally intended and I had to file a lawsuit against the county to force the dischargeability issue in front of the judge. Client agreed. I advanced the $350 filing fee. I wrote and 15 page brief that explained the law to the judge and .... I WON! My client did not have to pay back $220,000! So, how much did he pay me??? $0.00 that's right -- NOTHING!. He didn't even pay me back the $350 I advanced to file the lawsuit let alone the amount he claims he agreed to! This proves that adage that no good deed goes unpunished. Almost all of my clients are honest hard-working people that want to pay back their debts, but circumstances has made that impossible --- This one is not. Fortunately, I do not let a former bad dishonest client jade my view of the rest of my clients.

My case was very clear and precisely explained almost verbatim of what would take place. He was always available to answer any and every question that I had throughout my process. Everything was done in a timely matter in order to get my case resolved. I'm 99% sure I won't ever need his services agai...n but I'd definitely recommend him to anyone that's looking!
