Hire the best

My husband and I were suddenly faced with the prospect of having to file for bankruptcy. We have been married for 39 years and have never missed a payment on anything. For our generation, this is not anything to be taken lightly. We were devastated. Fortunately, we called another attorney who rec...ommended Steven Brumer. He was brilliant. It's an overwhelming task at best. Steven Brumer led us through every step of the way. He was not only there for us every single moment, but his knowledge went above and beyond what any attorney usually delivers. I know this because I am a paralegal and have worked for the best and the worst attorneys. He supported us in every way. It could not have gone any smoother, and we give him credit for this. He's confident, smart, knowledgeable, and so supportive of the emotional, as well as the technical aspects of every area of bankruptcy. We cannot say enough great things about him. He's also personable and caring -- all in all it was the best experience we could have had dealing with having to make this difficult life decision.

As Easy As a Bankruptcy Could Be

Steven was instrumental in my ability to file for bankruptcy with peace of mind. He was very thorough in asking questions and discussing special circumstances, knowledgeable, and had enough experience under his belt to be able to tell me what to expect based on my specific business ownership concerns.... We had multiple meetings in person and corresponded frequently with his paralegal by email to make sure everything was accurate and complete. His individual attention made a huge difference in my feeling like I was doing the right thing and had a high probability of a good outcome after filing. This was especially apparent at the meeting of creditors, before which Steven told me which types of questions to expect and what to bring. I was relieved to not be part of the "cattle call" of other providers who seemingly had 20 clients that they were meeting en masse for the first time just prior to their appearance. I highly recommend Steven as a kind, personable lawyer that is an expert at navigating the bankruptcy process.

I highly recommend Attorney Steven Brumer. Mr. Brumer represented me in my bankruptcy case. He answered all of my questions thoroughly, and kept me informed every step of the way until my bankruptcy case was discharged. He exceeded my expectations!

Excellent attorney

I hired Mr Brumer to help me with a complicated BK case related to my divorce. I was very impressed with how prompt he was in responding every step of the way. Although my case was very complicated, Mr Brumer researched and communicated all of options to me so I always felt I had all of the informat...ion to make an informed decision. I would highly recommend Mr Brumer as a reliable attorney.
