Mike is cutting edge, he stood up for our family effectively and saved our financial future. Thank you! Mike.

Mike saved us our home, we now have a savings plan (we are contributing 5%-10% of our income monthly towards each of our 401K retirement -- that was impossible before meeting with Mike Wink), our direct monthly out of pocket costs have dropped significantly, we were able to get the second mortgage re...moved (so we will likely a ton of have equity in 5 years - hopefully if the market continues on it's current path). So professesional and truly effective & empathetic.

Just puts you further into debt

Michael was impressive in the beginning but that was all. I discovered he was making me do a lot of the work myself yet charging me a very exuberant fee. He would email me to tell me he would be calling on a certain day and time and never follow through. I would call him the next day and there was al...ways some lame excuse as to why he missed calling me AND he would charge me for MY call. Obviously MY time is not valuable but his is. Both he and his paralegal would screw up documents and I would point out the errors and AGAIN I was charged for the screw up time, my calling to point it out, and the time to it took them to fix it. In the end, Michael ended up charging me close to $10, 000 in attorney fees and my Chapter 13 monthly payments are actually higher than what I was paying out to creditors before the filing. I don't dare call him or email him any more for fear he will tack on more money to the bottom $ figure of my bankruptcy. So any thing that comes up, I once again have to handle on my own.

I am very sorry this anonymous commenter was unsatisfied with my representation. However, Chapter 13 cases--especially for high income filers--can be very complex with multiple objections from the Chapter Trustee’s office and creditors. Unfortunately, there are cases where expectations can be out of line with reality. I do my best to set realistic expectations for my clients, and I also strive to give the highest level of customer service—including giving my personal cell phone number to all my clients. -Michael Wink

Wonderful Experience!!!

As a person who has an impatient personality, it was so refreshing to have an attorney that answers emails quickly and pretty much answered the phone every single time I made a call. Bankruptcy is not an easy decision, but I felt I had an attorney who was genuinely on my side. Mike handled my case ...efficiently and I couldn’t have asked for better service. Thank you Wink and Wink!!

Bankruptcy Demystified -

Mike not only expertly solved some complex aspects of my bankruptcy, he and his firm provided every kind of support I needed to get through bankruptcy. I only wish I had sought his counsel sooner. I felt guilty and defeated by my financial problems. Wink & Wink listened and more importantly showed me... how to act and take control again. Throughout the entire process they were responsive, professional, and unfailingly courteous.

Satisfied Client of Mike Wink

I would highly recommend Mike Wink to anyone who is considering a bankruptcy. He took us through a difficult process making it much easier than what we expected. He always answered all of our questions and gave us complete knowledge of the steps and the process. He accommodated our schedule for... meetings. He is very knowledgeable and we felt gave 100% to our case. We had complete confidence in him.
