Life changing!

At a time in your life when you feel most vulnerable, Scott and Stephanie created a scenario that was truly life-changing for my husband and me. My husband of 30 years is a brain tumor survivor from 2013 and as such has had a decrease in income for nearly five years. Drowning in debt, I felt as tho...ugh there was no way out. Scott and Stephanie took all the drama and stigma out of filing. I feel as though we have a fresh start. I also feel as though I have a tiger team on my side. Thank you for all you have done for us! You have certainly changed our lives!

Couldn't be happier

Scott represented my and my husband in a Ch. 13 Bankruptcy, then also a chapter 7 when my case was converted following my husband's death. There were many complications due to some money I received, but Scott was extremely zealous, attentive, and impressive in Court. This matter is finally over and... I could not be happier with the representation. I STRONGLY recommend Scott to anyone interested in any bankruptcy matter

Couldn't be happier!

I retained Mr. Forrester and his firm because I was drowning in debt and could no longer afford to continue to stay in debt. I had tried everything from consolidation to car title loans and nothing was helping. He gives you all the options that are available and helps you to make the best choice for ...your situation. They filed my case quickly, kept me informed, and got me the financial freedom I desperately needed. I couldn’t be happier!

A Great Attorney And A Great Guy

Scott Forrester made a very stressful time in my life a little less stressful. He was always calm and knowledgeable and helped me step by step through the entire process. I would recommend Scott to any one of my friends and family. Easy to get a hold of, returned phone calls right away and answered a...ll my questions. He was able to get me through my hearing even though I had moved to NC. This man really cares about helping people!!
