About Neil

I have filed bankruptcy for more than 10,000 clients and personally handle the process.

I have been practicing bankrutpcy since 2001 and have helped in excess of 10,000 debtors through the process. We aim to make the bankruptcy a smooth process, with complete access to the attorney. My staff and myself answer all calls unscreened. Bankruptcy can be stressful enough without having to fill out a stack of paperwork. We do not make you fill out your own paperwork, but prepare your entire bankruptcy.

So efficient, clear, and thorough

Posted by

So very thankful for Mr. Schwartz’s knowledge and help. I was so stressed out with a land deed/time share- they were trying to go after not just my assets, but my teen’s assets as well. Without Mr. Schwartz’s help, I would probably have had a heart attack in the amount of stress this was causing me! Thank you so much❣️

Patient and Polite

Posted by

I put my father in contact with Neil. I have known Neil for several years and know of people who have successfully used his services for their Bankruptcies, therefore I knew my father would be in great hands. I was on the 2 or 3 consultation calls with both my father and Neil. Neil was so patient with my father who is in his 80's and went over his options clearly and concisely. My father walked away with a clear picture and frankly Neil could have been hired by my father however Neil thought it would be in my dads best interest not to file. Neil is an honest and thoughtful attorney who looks out for his clients best interests.

THE BEST

Posted by

Going through financial hardship and debating whether to go through a bankruptcy is very stressful. I had a consultation with Neil, Neil has made this process so easy and stress free. Every question I asked was answered thoroughly. Neil doesn't judge your situation very understanding. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a honest and great attorney. The entire process from start to finish was very professional. One other thing I like was that i was able to make payments that's a plus when you are having a financial hardship. I give him ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Great experience

Posted by

Neil made the bankruptcy process incredibly easy. I was able to get in for an appointment within the week of calling his office. Payments were easy to make and he was very responsive to any questions I could possibly think of. No matter how ridiculous I thought the questions could be, he responded professionally and quickly. I would definitely recommend him.
