Joan Grimes helped me through a very difficult time in my life, divorce and bankruptcy. I always felt that she cared about me as an individual. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing legal advice and/or service.

She was referred to me at a very critical point in my life. I had a big problem and was headed to surgery. It felt she took a brick house of of my and my families shoulders. She will always be in our prayers and we can't thank her enough. Will recommend her highly.

Joan is spot on with her legal advise. If you want an attorney who tells you how it is--she speaks her mind and does not hold back. I interviewed several BK Attorneys until I found Joan.

Joan was recommended to me by another attorney that I trust. I came to her after having a less than satisfactory brief encounter with another bankruptcy attorney who advised me to incur more debt, saying I would not qualify without it. I didn't want to take bankruptcy but I felt I had no choice. Stil...
"Joan is extremely sharp and knowledgable about estate planning and bankruptcy. She is a nice person to boot! I wholeheartedly endorse this lawyer."
"I endorse this lawyer. Bankruptcy attorneys can appear to be "a dime a dozen." Simply search for 'bankruptcy lawyers' online, and see how many hits you get. Mrs. Grimes, however, is not just another 'dime a dozen' attorney. Mrs. Grimes understands bankruptcy, real estate, and tax issues, and I have consulted with her when I needed to do some 'brain storming.' Highly recommended."
"I endorse this lawyer. Joan is one of the most caring people you'll meet. More than that she knows the law including every nuance and twist. Bankruptcy often involves real estate issues, tax issues and credit issues - she knows it all. A SOLID veteran to be trusted."
"I endorse this lawyer. Whenever I have a client with bankruptcy issues, I feel confident in referring that client to Joan. She is knowledgeable, and skilled in both Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcies. She is attentive to clients needs and concerns. My clients deserve no less."
