Exceptional Attorney

​At the time of my decision to pursue bankruptcy I was new to the Austin area and relied on the recommendation of a close friend's attorney. Michael lived up to everything I was told about him and confirmed by the reviews he received. I found Michael to be very knowledgeable, forthright and complet...ely on track regarding the best chapter, what to expect, what to provide to make it as smooth as possible and a realistic timeline for completion. There were no surprises or delays and I found Michael's staff to be responsive and very supportive in what they understood to be a difficult decision. I have no problem recommending Michael and his office as an example of outstanding professionalism and courtesy.

Painless Bankruptcy

My husband and I are very worried about making this decision and very nervous going into it. But after our first meeting the Michael, we were quickly at ease. His witty banter and stories lightened our mood! He explained everything very well and we left feeling confident that we made the right deci...sion. The whole process (beginning to end) was so painless. I was amazed at how easy it all went and I never once felt judged or ashamed of the state of my affairs. If you are facing this difficult chapter in your life, give him a call and you'll quickly realize that it's not as daunting or humiliating as you might think!

The right choice!

I am so thankful that I went on to this site and found Michael and his office. Michael and each of his staff members are so helpful and professional. It was a hard time but the appointments were always upbeat and fun because of Michael's great personality and his nice staff. The payment plan was a...lso a must for me which they had no problem allowing me to do. Great people and great service. I am very thankful to them all!

Excellent Service!

Mr. Baumer and his team were a huge help to us! My husband and I were so nervous about filing, but Mr. Baumer and his team held our hands the whole way through. He was never condescending or anything other than helpful the entire time. He explained every step of the filing process to us in detail, an...d I love that he was able to work with us in our unique circumstances. [I had to go out of town for a few months and they were excellent at communicating via email!] I highly recommend his services. The entire team is amazing!
