Highly recommended Law firm

Michael Baumer and his staff were very helpful in this bankruptcy case. All questions and concerns were answered professionally and timely including questions regarding my debt, my car lease and apartment lease etc. Before we arrived in court room Michael was already there, he helped us in court room... and helped in some questions trustee asked, All procedures and legal proceedings were explained clearly. Highly recommended law firm for anyone needing help in Financial/ bankruptcy proceedings. Thank you Michael and his staff.

My bankruptch experience with Michael Baumer

Michael Baumer is an excellent bankruptcy attorney. He was professional in explaining each step of the bankruptcy proceeding. His staff were supportive and answered every question I had with patience and courtesy. He was on time for the proceeding and managed to allay my nervousness while we ...waited. The proceeding was handled quickly and smoothly. My oldest son, who has driven a taxicab in Austin for over 20 years, asked me for my opinion of Mr. Baumer as an attorney, since he is frequently asked by long time riders if he can recommend a local attorney. I unhesitatingly recommend Michael Baumer for any bankruptcy proceeding.

Professional, Knowledgable and Straight Forward

Filing for personal bankruptcy is a very scary situation for anyone. I have been going through a divorce for 3 years and my ex-wife filed for bankruptcy without my knowledge. Upon hearing from her creditors I turned to Michael for advice. Michael is professional, knowlegible and straight forward w...ith his approach to personal bankruptcy. He made the process as painless as possible and in no way placed any judgement on me regarding my situation. I was embarassed that my situation got away from me, but Michael was a calming voice during this distressful time. All my questions were answered, all my calls were returned, and all my meetings were efficient and on my terms. Michael did not rush me, he answered all my questions and made suggestions I would never have thought of regarding bankruptcy. 6 months after my discharge, Michael and his staff was there to answer lingering questions. They did not forget who I was, even after my case was discharged. They saved me an additional $4,000 by answering a simple question. If you are thinking of filing for Bankruptcy call Michael and his staff. You will not be disappointed!
