So far, so good.

I've only been a client of Recovery Law Group for 24 hours so I can't really give much input other than the initial appointment, conversation with my attorney, meeting with his paralegal and intake went very smooth. I understood everything that was said and I didn't feel rushed. I used to be a parale...gal before I retired. I like the way they make it possible for clients to make payments at our convivence. They also provide all the contact information needed to give to the creditors. So far, so good.

Absolutely great

Absolutely great law firm and attorney. 5 stars and would give more if I could. Nick and Michael took care of all the debt and financial issues. They also had another partner that was able to clear up the credit report and go after creditors for harassment. I was finally able to get my life back.

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....

Because 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.

i can Breathe Again!

I know it sounds like a cliche, but seriously I felt like I was was drowning, every time I would come up for air, I felt like i was being pulled under again. my phone was ringing all day every day, my paycheck had been garnished I couldn't do it by myself ! credit cards and things was just overwhe...lming to me. I went online and Nick call me back, his picture a young handsome man he looked confident in what he did.... thank you so much Nick and your team I'm so happy thank you thank you thank you!

If I could give 10 stars I would!!

Let me start off by saying I had put off filing bankruptcy for almost 2 years because all the other attorneys I had consultations with didn’t really answer any of my questions or made me dread filing because the process sounded so complicated. When I got notice of a wage garnishment my friend referre...d me to Nick and from the moment I reached out to his office I knew he was the right attorney for my chapter 7! He answered all of my questions, he is very knowledgeable, professional, & even though I was in a different state he made the whole process so fast and easy & had very convenient payment options! Not to mention he always personally answered the phone when I called and was very easy to get ahold of! Even after my bankruptcy discharged he emailed me congratulating me and offered his help if I had any questions on building my credit after bankruptcy & other services his firm provides! Nick truly cares about his clients and my experience with his firm was AMAZING!!

Rating:  4.8 (Concern)

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2023.

Reprimanded issued in NV, 2023

updated on 11/06/2023

This 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.
