Chapter 7

I'm hard of hearing, but was able to completely understand what Shantele said. Was able to go to the meeting of creditors by phone, with no problems at all. She had me completely prepaired. Heard some of the other people over the phone, who were not so prepaired. So, I highly recomend her. Davi...d

Bankruptcy (Chapter 7)

Shantele Elmy took my case and counseled me throughly and carefully on what I needed to do and information I needed to provide before my court appearance. She well prepared me and took care of everything necessary to accomplish a successful dismissal of my debt burden. I was severely stressed and b...urdened by this situation, and she alleviated my concerns and was very helpful in assuring me that my case was not extraordinary, and could be handled expeditiously with a successful outcome. She filed all documents in a timely fashion and I am throughly satisfied with her work, and would recommend her to other clients.

I was very pleased with my interaction with Shantele. She was very informative and helpful through the entire bankruptcy process. She was always available with any questions I had and answered emails promptly. I would highly recommend Shantele.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
