John Anton Sterbick

I came to Mr. Sterbick a couple of years ago to resolve a nasty tax issue where I had been audited due to not being able to show oil change receipts to back up mileage logs. This resulted in me oweing over $50K in interest and penalties. Mr. Sterbick not only correctly advised me to file CH 13 after... representing me to the IRS, but moreover advised waiting a year so that the last year under audit would be covered. We waited this out for well over a year, and recently filed. It was the best decision I've made, as my credit score actually went up 100 points simply by cleaning out all of the old debt and resetting things so to speak. I can't speak highly enough about Mr. Sterbick and his entire team as they didn't treat me as a number but rather acted as a consultant for my specific situation and provided a long-term solution that end the end was very beneficial to me. This was a huge ugly mess that was handled expertly and with thought and compassion. I highly recommend Mr Sterbick and his team.

John and his team were very instrumental in helping me through such a difficult time in my life. I originally hired John and Lorelei to file a CH 13 bankruptcy over a year ago and that process went smoothly. I had to hire John and Lorelei again to covert the CH 13 to a CH 7 due to a loss of income.... When that happened they took great care of me with compassion and timeliness. I can't say Thank You enough to the entire team at this law office for the tremendous amount of support and help you gave to me! I give my highest recommendation to John Sterbick and his team for any and all your legal needs! Thank You John and Thank You Lorelei!!!

Mr. Sterbick, I want to thank you and your entire staff for all the help getting me through my chapter 13. Bankruptcy can be a very scary ordeal and I didn't have a clue what to do. You and Lorelei really made me feel like this wasn't the end of the world and you would get me through it. Again th...ank you and please let Lorelei and the rest of your staff know how much I appreciated all there help. Toby

May 2, 2012 To Whom It May Concern, My name is Ms. Bailey [removed by Avvo Staff]. In 2011 I sought a lawyer for my bankruptcy and found Mr. John Sterbick’s law office. I’ve been exceptionally pleased with their service since the first day. In truth, I spent very little time with Mr. Sterbick h...imself, but found him to be personable and intuitive. I can’t attest to his knowledge of the law, or that of his employees, since I have no education in this discipline whatsoever (and fully intend to keep it that way), but I can say that everything has worked-out perfectly with my case, which should say more than enough. One would and should expect this with whatever lawyer they choose, but I imagine that isn’t always the case. Yet it has been the services provided to me beyond doing the job, in and of itself, that has so pleased me. Most of my interactions were with Ms. Lorelei Faber, of John Sterbick’s office, and I can’t imagine how she could’ve done a better job. I’ve no doubt that Ms. Faber could’ve drowned me in endless legal detail that I didn’t want or need. Many have been the “professionals” that have tried to waste my time with their self-aggrandizing stories about what they did for me when I didn’t want to know nor did I need to know. I’ve told my tax accountants, my realtors, my doctors, etc. all to stop talking because I simply don’t need all of this information. Lorelei answered my questions, succinctly, briefly, and told me what I needed to know as well as assuring me that if I wanted to know more detail, she would be happy to provide that to me. This may not seem like much, but to me, it was gigantic. Ms. Faber was and remains exceptionally responsive, often replying to my emails a few minutes after I sent my question. She also knew how to and would immediately calm me down; whenever we need a lawyer, it’s usually an emotional situation and the ability of the lawyer to be sensitive to that is paramount. I declared Chapter 13 bankruptcy, which was very scary. Each time I’d freak because the courts or businesses intentionally sent me very alarming legal documents, Lorelei was instantly reassuring and handled the situation. With so many businesses today, the customer is told to do this or do that or do it ourselves, etc. That was not the case with the law office of Mr. Sterbick. Whenever they could, they would do all of the communications with the creditors, the courts, everybody, rather than just pushing all of that on the customer. If they could do it, they did do it and that kind of service is difficult to find today. I’ve already recommended Mr. Sterbick and especially Ms. Faber to at least two people and will do so again should the opportunity arise. Sincerely, Ms. Bailey Catherine [removed by Avvo Staff]
