John Anton Sterbick

Mr Sterbick and associates worked very closely with my family and I, with a great sense of profesionalism to see us through very difficult times during our bankruptcy process. They kept us very well informed with a step by step attitude. We were given exceptional guidence as they advised us through ...the legalities of bankruptcy. My wife and I highly recommend Mr Sterbicks and associates exceptional services to any who is considering a bankruptcy. They handled all of our affairs with a great sense of expediency to include handling all of our creditors. Thankyou Mr Sterbick and associates for all you have done for us.

I went to see John Sterbick about issues which had me owing the IRS over $80,000.00. John and his staff, in particular Lorelei and Pam, were very professional and knew their stuff. John found a way to get the entire debt cancelled and as of 26 August 2012 the IRS has closed their investigation into... my situation and released their lien. John Sterbick and his staff have made me a free man again; not having to wonder anymore what mayhem the IRS is going to cause me in the future. The $1,500.00 fee I paid for his knowledge and ability to get the job done quickly is less than what I've heard other attorneys and law firms quote and I consider it to be money very well spent. He and his staff are friendly and engaging, proficient and caring and I can't recommend them with more sincerity and deep appreciation.

I felt I had the support of a whole team behind me while working with John Sterbicks office. First of all they are kind and calm, two qualties that I much apreciated while going through a rough time in my life. Bankruptcy is not something that I looked forward to, but John Sterbick and team informe...d me of my options and got me through the process with the best possible results. John Sterbick and team are Reliable, Knowledgable and Thorough.

My husband had a corporation and needed a tax attorney for back taxes. When looking for a tax attorney in Tacoma, John Sterbick's website popped up. It looked impressive so we set up an appointment. Mr. Sterbick made us feel like everything was going to be taken care of. We paid him his $1,800 fee an...d quickly got all the paperwork he asked for. Mr. Sterbick said he would contact us. After months and no word from Mr. Sterbick we called to check on the status. They said he's working on it and they'll call us. Soon a notice came in the mail from the IRS. We took it over to John Sterbick and again they said they're working on it and don't worry. Next the IRS came to our house and left a business card. My husband was upset and called Mr. Sterbick to let him know about the visit. Mr. Sterbick said not to worry, he would call them right away. Another month passed and more IRS notices came in the mail as well as certified mail. My husband again delivered the information to Mr. Sterbick and was reassured it was nothing to worry about. after another month and no word from Mr. Sterbick we set up a meeting with him to ask questions and find out what the status was. We needed to know what the next step was. John Sterbick entered the room with our folder and asked questions (like it was our first visit). My husband had to keep reminding him what he said before and what he was suppose to be doing. John Sterbeck said "ohhhh, this is a corporation!?" He leaned back looking at the ceiling (for a long time) not saying anything then he stood up and closed the door. He quietly told us "For another $1,500 cash, I can get the amount lowered for you and start immediately." He asked, "how soon can you get the cash?" We said how about the next day? He asked, can you go get it ASAP (that afternoon) and he'd take care of everything immediately. So we did. (It didn't feel right in our gut) but we were wanting to resolve this. Another month past, we heard nothing from Sterbick. We received another notice from the IRS We called John Sterbik and received a voice message stating he was playing phone tag with the IRS and he would be in touch with us. Waiting again....We received another certified letter stating "since we have heard nothing from you, we will go the next step and seize your bank accounts. OMG, this time we thought screw STERBIK, we called the IRS ourselves. The IRS lady made it clear she hadn't heard from Sterbick and had never heard of him. She explained the IRS does reduce the amount owing for people whom owe back taxes with corporations. What a blow, John Sterbik lead us to think he could get the amount lowered (for another $1,500 dollars) we feel like a couple of idiots. My husband called Sterbiks office PISSED OFF. He told them about the call to the IRS. He told him what the IRS lady said. The IRS lady told us that Sterbick finally called her to set up an appointment. We stayed in contact with the IRS and handled everything ourselves. hard telling what the outcome would have been if we didn't. We spent $3,300.00 for NOTHING! DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!!! As we see it, the good reviews someone left on here were probably written by himself or one of his family members! STATUS UPDATE: We are in the process of reporting him to the Washington State Bar Association.
