Attorney Z is a lifesaver

I am writing to thank Attorney Z for establishing a great rapport with me, always treating me with respect, and giving me the full benefit of his knowledge and experience. I also want to thank him for being very professional, and giving me effective service during those trying moments of mine. He li...fted my spirits. I don't know what to say, he saved my life. Again, I am thanking him for all he has done for me. After my last meeting with him, I now feel confident that I can get on with my life. Now I don't have to worry about any annoying phone calls both home and at work. Thanks a million Attorney Z. "You are the man".

Excellent Lawyer. Superb and Professional and Well Versed

My wife and I did a bankruptcy with Mr. Usman in 2013. I had much fear and trepidation about doing a BK. In fact, I was an adult male crying because I wanted to do the "right thing" and pay my creditors, even though I was being sued by Discover 3 times. Z explained that I had little choice--if I d...id not follow through with the BK, I would likely have my wages garnished once Discover won all three lawsuits. We went through with the bankruptcy, re-affirmed by car loan through Ally, and had it discharged on Nov. 12, 2013. I feared my credit would be hurt for years, but less than 5 months later, I was approved for a new car loan through Ally at 4% on a 4 year old van. That is the kind of rate perfect credit borrowers receive. Now my credit score is pushing 700 just 1 and a half years after our discharge, and we are getting the fresh start that Z talked about, and our credit has improved dramatically. Any lawyer can do a BK, but Zeshan has the experience and expertise to make it go smoothly. He comes highly recommended. I will say that when we first walked in his office and saw a picture on his wall of him posing with Barack Obama, my wife and I wanted to leave immediately. But in spite of the photo, we stayed, and listened to him, and are glad we used him. Even though Zeshan and I probably do not vote for the same people, that would not stop me from using him again or recommending him to others with financial challenges. If you use him, and are like me, ignore the photos on his wall. Who he votes for has NO EFFECT on his skills as a SUPERB bankruptcy attorney. Everything Z said he would do, he did. His fee was very fair, and it was a small price to pay for getting $50,000 worth of debt wiped away to give us the fresh start we have today. I used to believe that BKs were for losers, but since this economy started tanking in 2008, and still has not recovered, many people who once thought like me and would have never filed for BK, now have immense financial challenges, and have no other way out. If that is you, I recommend that you use our bankruptcy laws to get your fresh start, and I recommend you use Zeshan Usman. You cannot go wrong with Z!

Debt Settlement Suit

Mr Usman's investigation of a law suit filed against me for a past debt was very thorough. He discovered numerous inconsistencies and was able to prove the collection agency was fraudulent. My case was dismissed entirely and my debt removed from my credit history. Superb attorney.

Exceptional Attorney

Zeshan helped my wife and I with a lawsuit that was filed against me by a debt collector. My only regret is that I wish I would of hired him sooner. I had made many phone calls and talked to various attorney's only to still feel stuck in the same spot. After talking to Zeshan I felt like I had someon...e in my corner, who gave me hope and was willing to go out and get some results. He is excellent at talking to you like a person and taking the time to explain things to you. He is knowledgeable and will tell you what options you have. He always gets back to you and responds in a timely matter. When you work with him you feel like your talking to a friend and not an attorney. He is a superb attorney and human being.

He's so good he makes everyone else look bad

Besides the random speeding ticket and falling into debt, I had never been in trouble with the law, so when I found out that a creditor was suing me, naturally, I freaked out. And so began my search for a lawyer. I came across law firms that were either not experienced enough or didn’t have good cust...omer service. Zeshan Usman, or Z as people like to call him, stood out as an expert in the field, and he offered the kind of personal care and attention that is rarely found anywhere. After working with him, I’m now convinced he’s the best in town. I originally hired Z to help me file for bankruptcy, but after taking a look at my situation, he advised against it and helped me come up with a better-suited action plan. He negotiated with the plaintiff’s attorney to come up with a settlement agreement that I would not have been able to achieve myself. Thus, I saved a lot of money and also gained some time to get my finances in order so I don't have to file for bankruptcy in the future. During our meetings, Z treated me with the utmost respect, and I never felt judged or patronized even though I was to blame for my own financial troubles. He was always quick to respond to my calls, texts, and emails, and he walked me through the process each step of the way with the kind of patience and compassion that one would expect from a friend. In fact it was easy to think of him as that, a friend who was helping me out of a jam. Z may be friendly and laid-back, but he’s also professional, direct, and tenacious about fighting for his client and getting the job done quickly and efficiently. Without a doubt, I would use his services again. So there’s a reason why everyone’s giving Zeshan Usman 5-star reviews across the board. He’s good. He’s really good. If you’re looking for someone who knows his job inside and out, someone who’s reputable with his associates and clients, and someone who actually cares about helping you…Z’s your man.
