Thank you, Mike. It's much appreciated. You had a very complex case and you've been through a lot. It was an honor to work with you through this process and I know this fresh start will alleviate a lot of stress. We're always here for you. I don't care if it's 2 months down the road or two years down the road, if you have any issues with a discharged creditor contacting you, just give us a call. Please take care, stay safe and healthy!

Make The Decision Now

Stop your search right here. Jenny Doling is beyond the most professional and knowledgeable BR attorney that you will encounter. My only advise is to make the decision sooner than later. Jenny's approach and skills made this uncomfortable process make so much sense and left us feeling that our only m...istake was not taking this route sooner. I will always be grateful to her for leading us down the correct path to move forward in our life and put this page behind us in the most professional and caring manner...thank you again Jenny!

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
