Eleanor Beavers Haynes's Lawyer Endorsements
"I highly recommend anyone seeking bankruptcy to reach out to Eleanor. I started as a protege of hers and derived a great part of my bankruptcy knowledge from working as her law clerk. She is very experienced, has previously served as a Chapter 7 trustee, and is able to give straightforward and competent bankruptcy advice. She's the first person on my list I contact for any bankruptcy or tax question. Her practice covers consumer bankruptcy, as well as businesses. I would readily recommend her for a referral, and highly endorse her!"
