Great Experience for Something we Feared

My wife and I were nervous about filing bankruptcy as anyone would be. Z made the process easy and as pain free as it could be. He always responsive when we had a question, no matter when it was. In this process we wanted to make sure we had someone in our corner who had all the i's dotted and the ...t's crossed and to not miss anything, and that is exactly what we got. Seeing how some other attorneys were in the Meeting of Creditors, I leaned over to my wife and said we definitely had the right guy on our side. Thanks again, Z. You are the best!

Great Process

Zeshan Usman is a very knowledgable, careful and thorough bankruptcy lawyer. Everything was done "by the book" and our chapter-7 was completed succesfully. This by-the-book, successful completion was especially rewarding since we'd witnessed a few other cases where the trustee was hassling the file...rs because of poor legal paper work. But Zeshan's greatest asset is that he is very personable, friendly, relating and responsive. Whether during normal business hours or during mealtime on weekends, every one of our questions, concerns, emails or phone calls were replied to very quickly; usually immediately. Zeshan really gets it. He clearly related to the fact that we were scared, embarresed, humiliated and emotionally needy. We had been told that many very, very qualified bankruptcy lawyers could be seemingly cold and nonrelating. So Zeshan Usman was exactly the "added value" we were hoping for (at NO EXTRA CHARGE). The Lord was on our side!

Bankruptcy made smooth by honest, direct, and compassionate lawyer

Mr. Usman was professional, detailed, and compassionate in every step of my Bankruptcy. He took extra time to understand all the caveats of my case before recommending a course of action. I was especially impressed with his responsiveness to my questions. Also key was his use of internet and documen...t technology which I feel helped to shorten the amount of time it took for my case to proceed. Overall, he was very good at explaining what is or would happen. I never felt rushed during my visits or correspondence. In the way he dealt with me I felt he took appropriate personal interest in my situation which was key to winning my trust. In retaining Mr. Usman I received the value of his services over an above one might expect. If you need a Bankruptcy lawyer, your first move should be to make an appointment.

RELUCTANT

Having a very cautious nature, but knowing that we needed to get some relief from debt collectors and lawsuits, I reluctantly called upon Zeshan's help. He did not pull any punches with me. He gave it to me like it was. "We're gonna crunch the numbers and see if we can file?" Then within 7 days of ...that we had filed. Zeshan was on the ball. Very confident, very Knowlegable, lively, assurring, and a "straight shooter", never promised me something that he could not deliver. I respected that. He knew all the "major" player in this system. A "one stop" shop. Needless to say, I have "RELIEF" now. Thanks Zeshan

For Debt Issues, He's "The Man"

I once read there are two kinds of lawyers; those who use their knowledge of the law to make other people's lives easier, and parasites. Zeshan Usman made our lives easier. When a lawsuit was filed against us for a medical bill we were unable to pay we received two flyers in the mail from attor...neys reaching out to offer assistance. We answered the one which was better written and more detailed about the services which were offered—this led us to Mr. Usman. From the initial consultation through the filing process to the final conference with the bankruptcy counselor, Mr. Usman was highly detailed in his approach. He led us through every step and answered questions promptly and completely. He is devoted to his specialty and that showed at the bankruptcy hearing when it was obvious he had a rapport with the counselor handling our case. Questions we would have had trouble answering for ourselves were handled through a few abbreviated half sentences exchanged between the counselor and Mr. Usman. (It is noteworthy Mr. Usman was with us at our hearing. Of the other four people waiting to go through their hearings we were the only ones with professional representation. It was a very comforting feeling.) One of the things I personally respect about him is how he runs his business for efficient functionality—not to fulfill the need to maintain an "appearance." His small office is bare, just a work station and a couple of chairs for his clients. With a computer and the Internet he doesn't need a secretary and a wall full of law books. So he does not have them. And the cost? Lawyers aren't cheap. We were in financial trouble already and couldn't afford to splurge. But I feel we received excellent value for the services we received. And his payment was bundled into the arrangement we made with the bankruptcy court so paying it was pretty painless. Since our filing we have our lives back without constant calls from creditors. Our finances are organized so we can begin to build a future we couldn't see six months ago. We have less stress and can keep up with our current obligations. So in a way, Mr. Usman's services seem pretty cheap by comparison. My wife and I both highly recommend Zeshan Usman for anybody who needs to handle a debt issue. He'll take care of everything.
