Wafa Adib-Lobo / Client Review

Making the decision to file bankruptcy as not easy but yours truly had no recourse. After speaking with 5-6 attorney's, thankfully I was referred to Ms. Adib-Lobo. She is experienced and current in the law, thorough, followed my case closely and was always accessible for my many inquiries. Without ...reservation I would recommend Wafa. From filing to discharge, my debts were relieved in four months. You can be confident that she will counsel you through this difficult time and will also display a genuine understanding for your situation.

Highly recommended....

Let me begin by saying I would highly recommend Wafa Adib-Lobo as an attorney. She is a true professional. Filing for bankruptcy was quite nerve racking for me but she was sincere, gracious, very thorough and explained every step along the way. Her attention to detail was appreciated and she serve...d me well.

Professional Attorney

I was extremely pleased with the way my bankruptcy case was handled by Wafa Adib-Lobo. I chose her as my attorney because she is knowledgeable, professional and highly organized. Wafa eased my anxiety with her preparedness and she simplified the legal jargon so I felt comfortable and understood how... the bankruptcy process would unfold. Her communication skills are wonderful and I would highly recommend her services.

Wafa met with me,to look at my situation,after evaluating my "problems" she showed me the few options I had,and,I chose the one that fit my needs. I hired her on the spot,to represent me. Thru the process of my bankruptcy, She was never "out of reach"to me. She ALWAYS stayed in touch,and, answered my... questions as they came up. That was a great comfort,as she knew that it took "swallowing" of pride to do what I had to do. I believe she is a warm,honest,professional person. When I went to court,I was prepared to be there,because of her,patiently teaching me,what I need to do, to help myself. She made a bad situation,a lot less painful. In closing, if,I ever needed any legal "direction" I know who to call. I have a Lawyer.

Highly Recommended

Wafa came highly recommended from another Lawyer. I am glad I listened to that recommendation. She handled my Chapter 7 case and was understanding and professional. Anytime I had a question or concern, she was readily available and quick to provide me with the answers/explanation I was searching f...or. If you're looking for a knowledgeable and trustworthy Lawyer, look no further than Wafa Adib-Lobo.
