The best Bankruptcy Representation

Mr. Thomas B. Ure is personable and is the consummate professional. He is an experienced attorney to whom I would not hesitate in recommending in the highest degree. He is a compassionate attorney that helped my family through a very difficult time. He treated us with dignity throughout the bankru...ptcy process and made an unpleasant experience tolerable. His stewardship and development of a tailored plan to overcome our financial hurdles has now placed us in a much more stable and promising financial footing for the future. I cannot say enough about his credibility and performance. There is not a more articulate and knowledgeable bankruptcy attorney out there. In retaining Mr. Ure, you can be rest assured and have confidence that he will handle all your bankruptcy needs.

Look No Further for a Bankruptcy Attorney!

The ugly truth about bankruptcy is not so ugly at all when you hire a professional that explains to you the intricacies and options you face- when faced- with financial disaster. Tom Ure is that attorney. I hopped from initial consultation to initial consultation, hearing everything I did ...not want to hear from other attorneys. Most of the time it was "you must file Chapter 7" or "You are going to loose your house." One guy even said, when I asked about preserving a certain amount of dignity in the process: what do you care? Well I did care, because I did want to file bankruptcy- but had to. My guess is that's the situation the person reading this (you) is in as well. When I met with Tom Ure I felt almost instantly at ease. I talk a lot- and he took the time to listen. He explained options that did not make me feel like just another number, or loser for that matter and that there was hope. I decided to hire Tom after that first meeting. Eventually we started the process and his staff confidently walked me thru the steps, the countless forms, and information that was needed file and proceed. Then Tom stood by me throughout the meetings and more. Clear, concise and confident I felt once again. He successfully got my case approved and it has changed my life. I know for a fact there is no way this process would have been easy one way or another. But with confidence I can say that without Tom's guidance and ease of which he broke down the entire process for me- and stood by me – I could not have done it without him. Its funny, this bankruptcy ordeal…it changes a person. I am a better person now. Then there's this tidbit: you find a guy like Tom Ure and want to use him again- but hope you never have to! And so does he! That said- the very least I can do it is let others know how terrific he is, and I am doing so here.

Light at the end of the tunnel

We knew nothing about Ch 13 until the Ure Law Firm recommended this path of reorganization. The lawyers Tom Ure & David Shevitz did an expert job in getting our plan certified. As a result this is the first year in a long time that we have not had to use credit to pay our annual federal income and st...ate property taxes. The plan is working and we can now see light at the end of the tunnel.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
