ch 13 case

Joe was very fair and up front with helping me every step of the way thru my case. Relocated in the middle of the plan and that resulted in getting my case paid off early due to home equity but he worked very hard at talking me through the steps that required. i would highly recommend him if you have... to deal with this unfortunate situation.

Honest and Fair

He don't beat around the bush, he says how it is. He is easy to work with not like some. He knows what he is talking about. When I left his office I felt relieved. He is OK in my book.

Mr. Wittman

Mr. Wittman was very helpful and easy to work with. He was able to work with me late afternoon so I would not have to miss work. While I was in bankruptcy I lost my job, he helped me lower my payments because I lost half my pay. I would surely tell my friends and family to use him as an attorney.

  • 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.
