Chapter 7

Greg was very helpful and detailed. My only issue was his paralegal Sarah she was not the most professional at times and very short with me in calls and emails. Greg however was very detailed and responded to my concerns as needed and helped me during a very difficult time. He helped me Reaffirm my c...ar loan and get creditors off my back.

Highly Recommend

Greg did an excellent job of working through the bankruptcy process with me from explaining and exploring options, to going through the entire process once it was decided that was the only option for my situation. He was detailed and everything got done on time, and handled professionally, with unde...rstanding that it was a difficult personal decision to have to make. I'd recommend Greg to anyone that needs expert advice in this area of law.

Helpful

I was a struggling single mom and needed help. A friend referred me to Greg. With his guidance I was able to keep my tax refund, get out from under a car loan and get the fresh start that I needed. Greg is a caring person and great attorney.

Outstanding communication

Greg put me at ease in a stressful time, and helped me understand the process. His attitude was a tremendous help, and he handled my case efficiently. Greg always communicated with me about the status of my case, and explained what was going on, and what to expect next. It was a pleasure working w...ith Greg, and I would recommend him to anyone in need of an attorney.
