Sheila Esmaili

She is a great associate attorney. She was helpful and supportive. She was knowledgeable and did her best to help me understand my options in this case. She was able to keep up with the twists and turns of the case, i.e. when a plan of reorganization seemed unfeasible and we then changed path toge...ther pursued a plan of liquidation. She wasn't afraid to recommend various options that could help my case, and she wasn't afraid to tell me her opinion, and I found this admirable. My bankruptcy was very complicated, so I am sure it was difficult at times to approach every issue in my case with clarity. However, Sheila did her best to keep me informed throughout the entire process and I felt we were working on everything together. She facilitated communication between Michael Berger and myself, and she wasn't afraid to demand attention in aspects of my case that were difficult to get past.

Sheila Esmaili is a very compassionate woman, and maintained a remarkably professional demeanor while assisting me through what was one of the most trying times of my life. She is more than anything, a very knowledgeable attorney. She kept me aware of all of my options before and throughout my bank...ruptcy, while empowering me to understand what otherwise was a very complex and new experience that was extremely foreign to me. Her communication skills are advanced and were critical in easing the Chapter 11 Bankruptcy process. She was very thorough in every aspect of my case, whether it was communicating with other professionals, my creditors, or the other attorneys at her firm which she worked closely with to make careful decisions on my case. She made a significant effort to keep me in the loop with all correspondence with the Judge and Trustee. She was very thorough in her communication with me after every hearing and maintained a very personal awareness of my needs as a Debtor during that time. She is also extremely patient, and I appreciated her ability to remain professional and kind during any phase of my case, no matter how complex. Most importantly, she was patient with the fact that I was so new this process. She completed her work in a timely manner and did not make mistakes on any paperwork submitted in my case. She was consistently and outstandingly able to explain all of my options and consequences of my Chapter 11 process. Additionally, she helped maintain a fluid relationship between myself, other attorneys at the Law Offices of Michael Jay Berger, and the Trustee in our case. I would recommend Sheila as a Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Attorney to those I care about, and I would work with her again should the need to do so ever arise.
