Showing 1 - 1 of 1 review | Debt Settlement

Posted by anonymous | February 19, 2014 | Debt Settlement

Excellent attorney to work with who can handle multiple simultaneously

Over two years I assigned to Helena dozens of creditor collection cases against small to medium sized businesses, with the average case being in the low six figures. She consistently proved to be proficient in identifying critical legal issues and documentation deficiencies affecting the likelihood ...of prevailing in the collection action. Most significantly, she was highly effective in working with the courts to obtain favorable rulings on motions and judgments, and in negotiating the best possible settlements with debtors. Helena was very easy to work with as she was sensitive to my business objectives and did a great job of keeping me continually apprised of where things stood with her case load. Overall, I highly recommend her.

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.
