Scam Scam Scam
I have been paying for a bankruptcy service for the past five months and nothing has been done. Collectors are contacting me. No case or any sign that any has been done. Collectors have not received anything from the law firm. If this is truly a Law firm. Feels like a scam. They get paid for nothing...

Replied last December 28, 2023Because you left this as anonymous I am unable to look up the details of your case. However, generally speaking, as is fully explained and you get an email with the same instructions the day you hire the firm, we are not filing your case at the time you start to pay the fee but once you have paid the fees in full and turned in all required documents. Upon hiring the firm and starting the payments, which it sounds like you have, we spent time on the phone with you actually completing the first draft of your entire bankruptcy petition and schedules. During that same call, we would have pulled your credit report and emailed you specific letters that you were to mail to each creditor, and then send us a picture of those, to make the creditor calls stop. You also received email instructions, and were told, that if creditors still contact ed you after that to report such calls to [email protected]. Lastly, you have a full email with the contact phone number and email of every department in the firm, including the direct number of your attorney, so if you ever had questions about the status of your case or of what has been done, the appropriate thing to do would be to contact us instead of jumping online and writing a bad review.

It's been quite an ordeal working with this law firm. I have been trying to file for the past 8 months but each time I'm told everything is ready, another delay is thrown my way. My recommendation is to find a local firm that is willing to file on your behalf in a timely manner. Update. Another mo...

Excellent
Nick recently handled my bankruptcy with precision. My situation was very complex as it involved years of unfiled tax returns, a divorce among Covid and my business going under. It was a very emotional time however, Nick's steady hand kept it all on track and although there were bumps along the way, ...

Experience
Professional misconduct
This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2023.
Reprimanded issued in NV, 2023
updated on 11/06/2023This means the attorney did something wrong, but the Bar did not suspend the lawyer. Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
