Joseph Lawrence Kelly

I was fortunate to be directed to Joe Kelly in a very unfortunate situation. Joe guided my wife and I through a very unwelcomed bankruptcy situation 5 years ago. And as we have just found out, only 30% of individuals entering chapter 13, exit successfully. Thanks to Joe being with us through the whol...e process, we were one of the minorities. Joe was very quick to respond to our questions - and we had a lot of them as this venture was totally unchartered waters for my wife and myself. We moved out of town and Joe stayed with us - again for the whole 60 months. I will not say that this chapter 13 was not a scary 5 years, but Joe made it bearable and supported us along the way. Again, if you need this type of guidance, i am sorry, but in the next breath, contact Joe Kelly.

I filed bankruptcy in March of 2013. Joseph was extremely helpful and sympathetic to my situation. For the past 3 plus years he has always been available, willing and ready to help with any question I have had. This past week I needed to get something done and Joseph really went to bat for me to a...ccomplish including doing some work on the weekend. Your the best. Thank you. Michael

More than 6 years ago, I was forced into a financial situation that required assistance from Joe. Joe took the time to understand the issues, I was having, and clearly articulated what my options would be. Once my case was settled, Joe's commitment never stopped. I have had to reach out to Joe ove...r the years to assist me with issues stemming from my case. Joe is one of the few people I know that still picks up the phone instead of relying on voice mail. Joe is an outstanding lawyer and more importantly a genuine human being.

After being turned away by two other attorneys, we came to Joe with a complex case involving both small business and personal litigation. After careful analysis, it was decided that a Chapter 7 bankruptcy was the best course of action. Joe was exceedingly patient and thorough as he guided us through ...what could have been a nightmarish process. At several points he spotted and dealt with trouble spots that could have easily derailed us if we had retained someone with less experience. In the end our case went smoothly and we are now past that very painful time of our life. Don't let his simple office and laid-back approach fool you... Joe has an encyclopedic knowledge of bankruptcy law and is respected by the Trustees who will eventually preside over your case. Do not underestimate the importance of this! If you hire some supposedly slick lawyer that has attempted to pull the wool over the eyes of the Trustees in the past, YOU are going to pay the price for their "creativity" and it will only add to your misery. Joe will always have our respect and gratitude... thanks Joe!!!
