Posted by Raymond | August 17, 2020 | Hired Attorney | Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

If you need a Bankruptcy attorney, Susan Taylor is the one you should choose.

I went to see Susan Taylor shortly after she and I spoke on the telephone the first time. Our first meeting was in her Austin office off 15th street. After meeting Mrs Taylor, I knew that she would be the one to represent me. Susan is licensed, competent, and prepared to take on anything that com...es her way. She made me feel comfortable and welcome with her wonderful ability to adapt to my interests and life experience. After being a police officer for 10 years, I have issues trusting most people, and with good reason. Although law enforcement has the ability to make a person jaded and suspect everyone else is up to no good, Mrs.Taylor managed to bypass my often critical assessment. Mrs. Taylor’s mild mannered demeanor and ability to speak with anyone about anything make her the perfect counselor for something as complex as a bankruptcy. I do not think that anyone goes through life spending wastefully knowing that bankruptcy is an option to be used as a kind of Kings X when things are no longer manageable. But it is nice that the bankruptcy laws exist and can be used when things do not go as planned or intended. After leaving law enforcement, I returned to Austin and decided I wanted to become a commercial pilot. I enrolled in Deltas flight school in Sanford, Florida and shortly after moved to Florida. I became a Commercial Pilot rated to fly both single engine and multi-engine aircraft for hire, and was IFR (instrument flight rules)I rated to fly with little to no visibility. I am almost 50, and have been healthy my whole life. In the last 3 years I have had more negative things happen than most could handle. I have had a heart attack, stroke, and a major brain bleed (aneurism) in January. This last hospitalization was 4 months long, and I know now more than ever, just how important family can be. There is no way I could have survived without my wonderful supportive family. In aviation, a pilot 40 years old and older must renew their medical every 6 months to fly commercially with passengers, and it must be a 1st class medical. My story is a perfect example of how things can turn around in your life with little or no warning. Because of my most resent Aneurism in January, obtaining a first class medical is highly unlikely according to my primary physician, who at one tone was an FAA medical examiner and issued the Medicals for flying. So that is the reason I am filing chapter 7, it’s the only viable option I have. I went with Susan Taylor for legal representation because I was impressed when we met. I think most people have mixed emotions about bankruptcy and I definitely did but Susan helped me realize that it doesn’t make me a bad person because I have to utilize bankruptcy laws it makes me a person that’s in need for them and that’s why they exist. If you are considering bankruptcy, than I highly recommend calling the Susan Taylor Law Office for representation. I hope that my experience helps others make the decision to call Mrs Taylor for a free review of your case.

Happy Client

Hello, My name is Adam, I was born and raised in Austin, and I am also current Client of Susan G Taylor’s. I just wanted to take a moment to recommend her Services to everyone! I have retained several Attorneys over the years, however, not once did any of them spend over an hour on the phone... explaining everything to me in detail as to want to expect for free! I generally, do not recommend people or companies to others, but I definitely recommend Susan G Taylor, Attorney for your Bankruptcy Attorney!

Beware: she’ll take your money and not do any work for you after the free consultation visit.

We visited Susan for our “free” consultation visit and initially placed a $2,000 down payment. Later on the same day, we realized that we can’t wait 6-8 months until our case is discharged so I asked her for my money back. She only gave me half of it but refused to give me the rest. Her email said “i...t will take 90 days to close your case then we will send you a refund”....What case?? She never represented us. We never gave her our paperwork after the first visit. She had the NERVE to accuse me of not telling them we were deaf. I called them several times before the first visit using Sorensen VP Relay. That is a big “WE ARE DEAF” flag. She said that she has to charge me for the FREE consultation visit even though it is advertised on her website that it is FREE. During our visit, she answered a lot of phone calls, emails, let people walk in during our visit, etc...so it’s not like she gave us her undivided attention. So what excuse does she have to keep my remaining $1,000? NOTHING.

Thinking about bankruptcy and debating which lawyer to call, well I highly recommend the Law Office of Susan G. Taylor!

I highly recommend the Law Office of Susan G. Taylor if you are struggling with the idea of filing for bankruptcy. I looked online for lawyers and Susan's website was the one that I found the most information and resources from before even deciding to call for an appointment. In fact, there is an onl...ine tool that helps enter your situation to see if you qualify and allows Susan to analysis your information before you schedule the free consultation. The first contact with Susan was via phone and she made me felt as ease from the first moment I spoke to her. Her motherly demeanor beamed over the phone and she gave me valuable advice that helped me get my affairs in order before I actually met with her to proceed with filing. She is genuinely kind, hard working, and an intelligent lawyer. She even met with me on a weekend and filed my petition asap since she knew I needed to have my case discharged asap. Thank you Susan for helping me even beyond my bankruptcy (she has taken the time to get to know me and remembered that I mentioned my daughter was diagnosed with Lupus so she took the time to print out an article on Lupus she had read months before our appointment since she remembered my daughter was struggling with stomach pains.) I am truly grateful for all that you and your staff have done for me and my case. If you are debating on a lawyer I highly recommend you contact Susan immediately. It doesn't cost a thing to make that call or fill out the questionnaire on her website. Before you know it you will see for yourself she is genuinely a caring person that wants to help you even if it means you are better off not filing bankruptcy. Susan is straightforward and honest with you from the start so you can trust her to give you the best advice, but you must also be honest with her and be sure to disclose everything in order for her to help you the best she can. Good luck with getting the relief and 2nd chance you deserve!
