Champion in My Corner!

Leonora is smart, calm, professional. She made me feel comfortable from the moment I walked though the door. I was carrying a lot of stress and shame along with my debt…she was non judgmental and gave me the tools I needed to handle it all. She promptly answered all my questions and quickly respon...ded back to all my calls and emails. Her expert legal advise guided me through the whole process from A-Z and she cooly smoothed out any "bumps" we ran into along the way. She knew how to handle all the ins and outs of the process. I truly feel like I had a champion in my corner! I had considered some of the "cheaper-quicker" options and actually got to see some of them in action in court …they were so unprepared and didn't even look like they knew who they were representing! I have now come through the other side and definitely know that choosing Leonora was the best decision I could have made, especially while going though such a challenging situation like bankruptcy.

lawyer review

knowledgeable, responsive to all e/mails and calls I sent.wanted me to understand everything about my case. all of that you expect when you hire your attorney. Leonora gorelick deserves a rating not with a number all though I know that's what your looking for , she deserves a rating of being the... above mentioned and more...kind caring, very much the professional yet her spirit couldn't help creep in..going the extra mile to guide and protect my interests but with such a human touch. this for me was the most difficult of times and Leonora made it much easier.. if you seek representation for a great attorney she is your woman, she will take the journey with you and make you feel like you are her only client......bravo Leonora gorelik you rock....and I give you that number of a million:)

Professional and Trustworthy!

Leonora was great from beginning to end. She explained what my bankruptcy options were and was extremely efficient through the entire process. I could have not found a better attorney to help me with such an important life decision. I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for an honest, stra...ight-forward and efficient attorney. Even after my case was closed, I can still contact her and she replies right away. Great, great service!!

Ms. Gorelik is very patient. She understands and make efficent reviews of records provided. Extremely responsive to questions and make excellent recommendations to my case. I could not have had a better attorney who made things very simple for me. My stress level was GREATLY reduced once she took on ...my case and i am entirely greatful that I got her. With Leonora you have an understanding of each steps through the entire case and a clear understanding of what you are doing. I thank you again for all that you have done!

TRUSTWORTHY, KNOWLEDGEABLE, RELIABLE, HONEST, EFFICIENT, CARING, AND VERY UNDERSTANDING!

If you are reading this review, no need to read others!! I went through such a devastating personal tragedy where I HAD to file for bankruptcy. I was INCREDIBLY FORTUNATE to have found her. She made me feel so cared about and made the process so easy that before I knew it, it was over. She was an ...ABSOLUTE ANGEL!!! Please save yourself A LOT OF AGONY and stop here and call her!!! YOU REALLY WILL FEEL AT EASE and you can relax knowing a professional who is honest is taking care of you. The result of my case WAS better than I hoped for. My life has a new beginning and I am so grateful for Leonora.
