Great feedback on loans

The consultation fee is well worth the honest and frank advice and information provided by jay on my brothers private and federal loans. I recommend him to anyone needing clear, concise info that can move people in the right direction.

Best consultation experience

I have been doing so much research on bankruptcy and met with 2 lawyers prior to speaking with Mr. Fleischman (Jay). First off, his assistant, Beth, is extremely helpful and organized. I received frequent emails, reminders, alerts and general info on the whole process. The consultation itself was ext...remely detailed and Jay offered so much information than what I got from the last 2 lawyers. He answered all my questions, and offered ongoing Q&A, post-consultation, if necessary. I did not feel rushed at all, as he took his time explaining bankruptcy as a whole. Given that I personally struggle with making this final decision, Jay's consultation put me much at ease and gave me the info I needed to make a decision. I personally look forward to the audio recording that will be sent to me. This is a GREAT service! I can review the recording and review all info discussed. When you think of free consultations vs. paid consultations; you get what you pay for! His fee is fair and very much worth it. Thank you Jay!

Paid a reasonable fee to have every question fully answered!

I've been struggling for the past year and a half to make sense of a private student loan snafu. I finally decided to swallow my pride and talk to a professional. After paying a very reasonable $150 consultation fee, I scheduled a 30 minute consultation with Jay. His office sent me an email outlining... the documents I should have on hand before the consultation, which I appreciated. His secretary called me 24 hours beforehand to confirm our reservation and ensure that I had access to the documents I needed. Within that half-hour, Jay answered every question I had in its entirety, gave me tips for moving forward, and allayed overblown fears of mine. I would (and have) recommended him without reservation to anyone in California who needs help making sense of their student loans. If I ever need help in this area again, he will be the first person I call.

Excellent Consultation

Jay was extremely professional and truly up front with all of my student loan issues. I was seeking advice on whether or not I should have a law office handle my private student loans because my husband truly felt I was setting myself up for a scam. After Jay went through the numbers and broke down... everything this other law office was trying to promise me, I felt so relieved I did not go through with the process and seemed his advice. In addition, he made so much sense as far as a plan to fasten paying off my private student loans and it truly is realistic and made a lot of sense! I am forever grateful for the consultation and I must add, thank you for continuing way over our time allotted.

Jay is amazing.

I spoke with Jay about my husband's student debt. He is extremely knowledgeable not only of the law, but also tax and financial elements that came into play as well. I had a baseline level of knowledge going into the call, and rather than dumbing things down or explaining concepts I already underst...ood, he met me right where my knowledge ended which made the call efficient and most helpful. He also was very generous with his time, and had insightful advice about the way dealing with these issues can affect a relationship / marriage. I would highly recommend Jay to anyone in need of this type of service. I believe he had my best interests at heart which is a rare quality to find in a lawyer. Many thanks Jay!
