Handled everything like a pro!

Used John for filing 7 years worth of taxes and filing my bankruptcy. He got everything done with no issues. I provided everything they needed, which they gave me a list for and they handled the rest. I love that I didn't have to worry. Whenever I call or come in with a question, someone was always ...available to answer my questions (even after my case has been closed for months). Very professional and not uptight (which is a plus in my books). Friendly, very trustworthy and everyone in the office remembers who you are. I will continue using him and highly recommend him.

Tax Nightmare Relief

Buried in IRS demands with nowhere to turn. Consulted with John Sterbick who immediately reviewed the facts and my ability to meet IRS expectations, took the burden of negotiation from me and solved the issue. Results were beyond my expectation. I have a plan and can go on with my life. No more l...iving in fear and depression

Bankruptsy

We had another firm who was representing us but they would never answer are calls. So we asked a friend who is a chiropractor and he gave us John Sterbick's name. They took care of us right away and were there to answer all our questions. We fired our other law firm and lost 325.00 but it was worth t...he change. Eveything went smoothly and we are now free and able to start over again. I Highly recommend this attourney.

Thank you, Mr Sterbick and Associates

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.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
