Knowledgeable, Understanding, and Trustworthy, in other words AWESOME

I first met Mr. Schafer in April 2012. I had been laid off from my job thus falling behind with credit card payments. Debt collectors refused to work with what I could afford. I received harassing phone calls throughout the day and was being sued by a major credit card company. Mr. Schafer remedied ...that immediately and very much to my satisfaction. He thoroughly explained the legal process and kept me abreast at all times. He was very reassuring and financially put my mind at ease with his affordable rates. He is the best and I would and have recommended him to family and friends in a financial bind.

Debt Collectors Worst Nightmare

If you are dealing with debt collectors and want them off your back then this is the attorney you need to call. Mr. Schafer and everyone in his office are very profesional and they handled my case in a timely fashion. There were no surprises regarding his charges...He kept me abreast of any changes ...and updates about my case and most importantly, he WON my case for me. If and when I ever need legal representation in an area of the law that Mr. Schafer practices, I will most definately call him and him only! You should too.

A Lawyer You CAN Trust

I hired Mr. Schafer , the first time, about 2 years ago when I was being harassed and bullied by a debt collection agency. Since then, he has handled 3 debt collection cases for me. He thoroughly explained what he was going to do to represent me in court. He did exactly what he said he would do in ea...ch case. I am extremely satisfied with each outcome. He kept me informed about everything in every case. Anytime I had a question, he returned my call quickly. I highly recommend Mr. Schafer to anyone who wants an honest lawyer that is willing to work for you and not big business interests.

Helped out when we needed it the most

My wife and I received notice from a bank that we were being sued. They had purchased some debt of ours 2 or 3 times removed. Since we were in the middle of also fighting foreclosure, it was not something we could take on ourselves, so we hired Michael to handle it for us. I found his website while ...looking for possible ways to handle the suit. After reading it, I called and his assistant and wife were able to answer my most pressing questions. Later, I talked to Michael directly, and he explained in more detail, and answered my questions to the extent I felt confident the suit would be handled professionally and thoroughly. Having financial issues, we were able to work out a payment that was both fair for services rendered, and that was affordable to us in our situation. As the process developed, Michael's office kept us informed at each major happening, from response to discovery to each motion filed. We had already discussed how it would work, but the communication was proactive at keeping our worrying to a minimum. If my wife and I had any questions, a simple call to Michael's office resolved it quickly. I really appreciate everything Michael has been able to do for us. I hope not to need legal services anytime in the near future, but if I do, I will call Michael first.

Review of Daniel Michael Schafer

Mr Schafer did everything he said he would do for my wife and I. He told us exactly what we could expect, both good and bad. He took care of an issue that I had been struggling with for months in a matter of a few weeks. I would recommend Mr Schafer without any reservation.
