Mike answered the call and all my questions on the first call!

I really appreciate the fact that Mike picked up my call on the first attempt and went in depth on our options and consideration of filing. He is very personable and doesn't make you feel dumb when it comes to law. Although filing for BK may not be our best solution right now we will definitely been... sending his info to those that may need his service. He really made us feel comfortable.

The best!

During a difficult time in my life I was very fortunate to have been referred to Michael Franco, bankruptcy attorney. From the very beginning Mr. Franco was very informative, helpful and responsive. Whether it was a phone call, email or text message I would hear back within a very short time. He w...as kind and non-judgemental and a pleasure to work with. The price charged was very fair and worth every penny. Mr. Franco is the best and I can't recommend him highly enough!

Michael Franco - A HUGE Blessing!

After weeks of researching how to solve my financial mess, I found bankruptcy lawyer Michael Franco. You can tell that bankruptcy is all he does. Totally fluent in every detail. No hesitancy answering my long list of questions. He explained every detail of the process. Mr. Franco answered or returned... every phone call and email. On that first day he totally calmed me down and lowered my stress level from a 10+ to a relaxed feeling of peace. That alone was amazing after months of anxiety. Michael is fair, honest and handles everything.
