I have to comment on the Big Easy Law Groups friendly service and attention to detail. My meeting with Jenny Abshier was more than I expected. As she reviewed my petition for chapter 7 bankruptcy she discovered a social security overpayment that I was not aware of that could also be a dischargeable debt. Her experience in Bankruptcy law saved me thousands of dollars. They made the Bankruptcy process really easy for me to follow by providing me with, literature on several official credit counseling services with step-by-step instructions included, a map showing the location of the creditors meeting ,an internet resource for additional bankruptcy information ,sending out reminders, and finally going the extra mile by offering payment options if needed.
Because of their knowledge, and friendly service I have recommended the Big Easy Law Group to my family and friends.
Jenny Abshier is a brilliant attorney. She walked me through every step of the bankruptcy, answering all of my questions. She made sure I understood what to expect before we even started the process. She also looked at all my options and recommended the best course of action for my situation. During the process, she was always happy to answer any question I had and reassure me that I was doing the right thing. Thanks to her services and her guidance my credit score has gone up 67 points in the 9 months since my bankruptcy finished!
Meet with Jenny today to discuss your bankruptcy needs. Jenny's office takes great pride in providing options to reduce the upfront costs required for filing bankruptcy, as well as providing access to pro bono services when available. Past clients have described Jenny's assistance in filing for bankruptcy as life-changing. She's been praised for her compassion and understanding, as well as her non-judgmental attitude.  Jenny is honored to be the recipient of a 2012 Distinguished Service Award from the Pro Bono Project of New Orleans, as well as a 2013 Pro Bono Publico Award from the Louisiana State Bar Association. Jenny graduated from the Loyola University College of Law, and earned her undergraduate degree from Our Lady of Holy Cross College.  Jenny began her bankruptcy practice in 2011 as the Law Office of Jenny Abshier, and is now pleased to have expanded her practice to include additional attorneys and areas of law as the Big Easy Law Group, LLC.  Jenny is an active member of the National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys (NACBA), the American Bankruptcy Institute, and the American Business Women's Association Crescent City Connections (ABWA).

Happy
I spoke with Ms. Abshier several times before actually meeting her. I hadn't decided if I was going to file for bankruptcy but after speaking with Ms. Abshier and getting all f my questions answered, I decided to move forward with the process. It was much easier than I expected and now that my case has been discharged, I'm glad I decided to file for bankruptcy.

"I have referred many clients and potential clients to Jenny for bankruptcy and consumer finance issues. I have also worked with Jenny as co-counsel on a number of matters. Jenny is intelligent in the law, takes a common sense approach to handling her clients issues and is one of the most caring attorneys I've seen in the practice. I'm amazed at the care she gives for her clients- she'll talk to them morning, noon and night- it doesn't matter what her schedule is, she'll always make time to talk to her clients even if the best time for her client to talk in 11 pm! Jenny is the embodiment of a great lawyer."
