Jason Delmar Laas-Sughrue

I had a chapter 13 filing with this Attorney. When I got divorced and could not handle the mortgage any more, i made several efforts to get him to convert to chapter 7, so I could discharge everything, including the Foreclosure Liability that was imminent. I got some response FINALLY, after I wrote ...him two certified letters with return receipt. Then, he managed to convince me that I was better off with the Chapter 13. Being in that state of mind where you lose your House, your Wife and your job, all within a short space of time, you are too weak to fight or think for yourself. My Attorney gave me a terrible piece of advise. I could not understand why this Man thought I was better off continuing to pay debts I did not have to, and could not afford any more, instead of converting to chapter 7. Well, I listened to him, and made the greatest mistake of my life. My Chapter 13 has been discharged, and my lender waited till now to make formal foreclosure move on the House. Since I cannot file for another Bankruptcy for several years, I am now stuck with a Liability of $293,000 on a $158,000 House. How could this Man call himself a Lawyer? My several calls were never answered, most messages left on their answering system were never returned, and it got to a point where I practically threatened his License for him to return my calls. In lots of cases, I had to call the Office to ask about certain mails I received from David Peak, and I suspect they were sent copies. I was the one who notified my Attorney's Office about my Chapter 13 payments having been completed. Should it not have been the other way around? Sometimes, I was tempted to think he might be working against, and not for me. Yes, it was that bad. Am I wrong to feel this way? Are all Bankruptcy Lawyers like this?

All the people at this office are very nice and helpful. I met with Jason and another attorney. 2 attorneys in a meeting! I went to other law firms to try to help me and never got to meet with even 1 attorney!! Here I met 2! He listened and made me feel comfortable and offered me solutions to fix my ...problems. He didnt charge me very much to help me. One of the options he offered to do for me WITHOUT paying and told me he woudl only charge me if it worked! no other attorney offered me that. He is the real deal!

My home is set for foreclosure and I have seen several "lawyers" in Dallas. I say "lawyers" because all three firms that I have visited for advice made me wait in the lobby until a paralegal was ready to tell me that Bankruptcy was the only thing that would work for me! I read the letter from the L...aas Law Firm and took the advice it gave me. I called and ask for Jason Laas Sughrue, to my supprise he was actually the one that answered the phone. When I made it to the appointment that he was able to give me that same day I called I met with HIM NOT A PARALEGAL. My over all experience with Jason was so much better than the other 3 firms that I hired him on the spot. He is working on a forberance for me to try to avoid having to file a bankruptcy. Thanks Jason and Thanks to everyone at the Laas Law Firm.

I hired this Attorney to file a Chapter 13 case for me. He saved my home and helped me control my credit cards and other people that were hounding me for money. He helped me the whole way through the process, he told me what was going to happen and he was right. After I met with him, I could sleep fo...r the first time in months.

This lawyer offers a low, flat-rate Chapter 7, but is extremely slow (7 weeks to produce a simple -- never married, no real property, all consumer debt -- filing for client review) and has an unresponsive support staff. More significantly, the filing produced for review seriously misstated earnings a...nd debts. Having questions at this point about this lawyer's competency, I consulted a second (more established) bankruptcy attorney, who advised that filing bankruptcy in my situation was actually not necessary or appropriate at all. Be sure to do your research and explore your options before engaging Mr. Sughrue.
