Posted by JW | November 07, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Bankruptcy & Debt

Excellent Attorney

Initially, we had worked with another firm and during the means test, we ended up with more questions than answers; were the laws that restrictive, why did we find different, contradicting information on the internet, and why are we getting inconsistent answers/figures. My wife asked that I reach out... to another attorney. This is where Joseph (Joe) Wrobel walked in. After crunching the numbers and understanding our personal and financial situation, Joe provided options where we could make the best decision for us. He took the time to ensure we understood the pros and cons of each. When we had more questions, he always responded in a timely manner. He always kept in touch and provided friendly reminders when meetings were approaching or paper work was due. He explained the process perfectly, always identifying what was required by us, versus him, etc. Also, he monitored the claim responses and made sure motions were filed on time, saving us money. The difference between him and the other firm was night and day. I highly recommend Joe Wrobel.

First Rate Attorney

We thought for many weeks about declaring bankruptcy and researched many lawyers. We chose Joseph Wrobel because of his years of experience and happy clients. Our initial consult was free, and we were able to pay at our own pace. He indicated that the filing itself would not take place until payment ...was completed, because all court and filing fees are included in his price, along with his legal fees. We found him friendly and knowledgable, and made sure we were prepared through every step of the process. He would say, 'this will happen, it will happen like so, and you will do this.' We were never surprised or unsure at any moment. He made what could have been a nightmare a smooth, trouble-free process. I definitely recommend him to anyone seeking a competent bankruptcy attorney.

Posted by Andre | July 27, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

Highly Recommend

Mr. Wrobel did a great job for us in the process of our chapter 7 bankruptcy. He is knowledgeable, and was able to explain our options and guide us through each step. He is very approachable, never seeming like he is above you because he is the expert. We both felt very relaxed throughout the process..., which is a testament to his ability to keep you informed from beginning consultation to the final letter regarding next steps after the bankruptcy discharge. Though I certainly hope never to need to file again, I would hire him if needed. I highly recommend him and his law office if you are considering filing for bankruptcy!

Bankruptcy and debt lawyer | Jan 24

Relationship: Worked for lawyer

"I endorse this lawyer. I started my bankruptcy career under Joe Wrobel. His knowledge of bankruptcy is outstanding and he stays on top of the law. He was courtesy and caring as an employer and he extended those same traits to his clients. He really cares about his clients and their problems. In fact there are numerous consumer bankruptcy lawyers that started out at the "University of Wrobel" to be properly trained, educated and given the opportunity to fly on their own. I also consider Joe a friend, he is extremely honest and forthright, always a pleasure to see and I know his clients feel the same way as they used to tell me how much they liked him when I worked there."
