A. Woodson's Feedback

I'd ABSOLUTELY refer individuals to Michele's Office without hesitation!! As of this writing, I have given three referrals to her office. Initially I was totally embarassed at having to file bankruptcy, but Michele was very thorough in explaining the process to me. She and Dez always made themselve...s available when questions arised. During our process, Michele successfully handled a very delicate and sensitive issue in our case, which impressed me so much by her professionalism and her efficiency. She and Dez are a great team, which is evident by their committment in serving their clients. God's richest blessings to the both of them!!

Excellent: compassionate, professional, the total package

I was at my wits end, Michele literally saved my life. I had a consultation with a lawyer that made me feel so small and extremely stupid. I walked out of his office feeling so defeated and without any options. I was ready to give up. I thank my lucky stars that I found Michele. She told me that ever...ything would be okay and she could help me. She and Dez took very good care of me throughout the stressful process of bankruptcy. I finally feel like I can breathe again, that I am worthy of a second chance. Thank you so much Michele and Dez!

Bankruptcy

She was very understanding and very direct. She explained the law that helped me understand. She also made many efforts in confronting my creditors, so I did not have to. I am very greatful to her.

The best in the west

I was in turmoil with my visa situation and Michele took care of my immigration paperwork. It took less than 4 months for me to get my interview. Michele stuck my by side throughout the entire process and always responds immediately to any requests from immigration and from me. Michele is the best... person to have on your side when facing the government.
