Michelle Kathleen Freed

After finding myself in a sudden and major life crisis last year and without the resources needed to deal with it, I contacted my local legal aide office for direction. They connected me with Michelle Freed, who graciously took on my case. I was treated with great respect and sensitivity as well a...s consistent support as I was walked through every step of the bankruptcy process. Her staff, primarily James Thompson Morales, patiently explained the documentation needed and answered my frequent, sometimes repeated questions. I am very, very grateful of the success of the outcome of my case and relieved of a major life stressor. I highly recommend Michelle Freed and her staff to anyone facing such a need and truly feel I could not have found a better team to assist me with a seemingly impossible chapter of my Life!

We traveled internationally in November 2019 and had $11,000 of fraudulent transactions made on our credit card. After trying to resolve this directly with Citi for 6 frustrating months without success we engaged Michelle. Michelle and team were responsive and transparent. I felt like I knew what my... options were at every point in the process and had enough information to make an informed decision on next steps. Michelle started by trying to navigate similar channels we had tried (lower cost option for me) and when it became clear that wouldn't be effective, we changed course to take legal action which fully resolved the matter within less than 6 weeks. I was happy with the settlement - we were reimbursed for all fraudulent charges, legal fees and a couple hundred dollars for statutory damages. Would definitely recommend Michelle!

Michelle and her team have been fantastic to work with over the last 5+ years. Her knowledge of the law is extensive and she always gave good advice. She helped me navigate the legal system and all the intricacies of a chapter 13 bankruptcy over 5 years. A lot can happen financially during that time,... and she always responded very quickly to my questions (even the really dumb ones). She was patient, and explained everything in detail, including all my legal options. The office staff is also very friendly and professional. During a very scary and stressful time she gave me reassurance and went to bat for me when I needed it. I would highly recommend her services!

My spouse and I were referred to Michelle for some help with resolving a judgment. She was incredibly knowledgeable about all of the relevant options and legal issues. Her advice was straightforward and very helpful. And she was generous with her free initial consultation. I did not feel rushed at al...l. She was very attentive and thorough.
