Bankruptcy Case

I would like to thank Michael Rinne, Rinne Legal, for his excellent service, partnership and representation in assuring a compliant and successful completion of my Chapter 7 bankruptcy filing. Michael maintained ongoing communication, direction follow through and a timely response rate. The office... atmosphere and staff are professional, confident and very responsive. Due to a financial and stressful hardship including loss of employment, I had a full plate of important responsibilities to take on in a short amount of time. Thank you, Rinne Legal, for assuring a successful resolution.

Responsive, knowledgeable, professional-a partner

There are tons of BK attorneys out there and a lot of them run their business in a way that leaves you feeling like you are on a mass production line. I certainly did with 4 out of the 5 attorneys I interviewed. I even got to the point of asking one of them what his case load was, quite obviously dis...playing my concern that I would be treated as another number and no amount of detail would be invested in my case. I ended up choosing an attorney who was the only one that: 1. Did not make my initial free consultation feel rushed, on the clock, etc; 2. Not only answered my follow up questions via email, but explained why he was answering the way he did, and provided answers within reasonable timeframes (overnight); 3. We used a little bit of time to set and clarify expectations of each other, how we worked, how reasonably soon we expected answers, how involved we wanted to be, etc. 4. Personally knows the trustees for my district. I felt comfortable, treated as a person, and secure that he would have my back. To me this is Michael Rinne. I recommend him and his services unconditionally.
