Extremely Dependable and Trustworthy

After a 10 years of trying to get back on my feet, I knew I needed to file bankruptcy. I called a few of the bigger firms on TV but all I felt was the run around. When I called Mitchell Legal Advocates, I was able to talk to a lawyer right away. I met with Tim and his associate Dave, they were bot...h very knowledgable and friendly, I definitely felt like a person rather than a check with a number. They took the time to explain everything to me in terms I could understand, and geninuley were concerned about my issues. The process was quick and painless. I am now in a chapter 13 plan and everything is starting to turn around for me. I really appreciated their help and would recommend them to anyone for any financial help. Thanks guys!

Very Dependable, Honest, and Experienced

After a long time of struggling paying my mortgage and second mortgage, I ran into trouble. I did call around a bit looking for an attorney but half the time no one ever called me back, or I felt rushed off the phone. Mr. Bell always answered my questions and helped put my mind at ease. He took th...e time, I never felt rushed or like just another attorney fee. I was able to not only get out from foreclosure, but was even able to get rid of the second mortgage on my house in my Chapter 13 bankruptcy. My payments to my trustee were a small fraction of what I have to pay beforehand. I am sure many have said this before, but after being helped through this process, I only wish now I have go with Mr. Bell sooner. Thank you, an absolute blessing

  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
