The Only Place to Go for Bankruptcy

If you are considering filing bankruptcy, please do yourself a favor and go see Tom Miles. First and foremost, he is extremely knowledgable in all current bankruptcy law. This went a long way to put my mind at ease. Tom is compassionate, kind, helpful and never, in any way did he try to pressure m...e to do anything. He will take the time to walk you through the entire process, patiently explaining the steps. Now- Gere, who handles all the day-to-day, in's and outs of your paperwork, is a ROCKSTAR. It literally felt as though a friend was guiding me through this process, making it almost... enjoyable. She is sharp as a tack, sweet, funny and does everything within her power to get you (as easily as possible) through the mounds of paperwork required. Please LISTEN to her, and follow her interactions. It WILL make your life less complicated! Tom and Gere have enormous hearts for helping people. This is their passion and their gift. I did not feel an ounce of judgement, only empathy and caring. I highly recommend this little practice in El Cajon. They made what was obviously a difficult time for me much better than I could have hoped for.
