Posted by anonymous | January 09, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

Rockstar results.

Sheri was a wonderful help correcting a self filing that I did. I had filed my chapter 7 bankruptcy on my own assuming that I could complete the paperwork without consulting a lawyer. My case turned out to be more complex then I realized. Sheri did all the further research on the out of state proper...ty that my husband owned and how it would affect my case. She was absolutely wonderful.

Absolutely Awesome

Ms Sheri was very personable. She was there whenever I needed her. It was a smooth transition from a Chapter 13 conversion to a Chapter 7. I would absolutely recommend her! I wish I'd hired her originally. I cant thank her enough.

Posted by Meek | March 10, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Bankruptcy & Debt

Very Helpful & Very Professional

Sheri was amazing in helping me figure out which chapter was best for me to file in. She took her time to explain the difference between a 7 & 13. Filing bankruptcy isn't something to take lightly, but her professionalism through the whole process made me have the confidence to know that I was making... the right decision. It always feels good to leave an appointment feeling like all your questions were answered and having a clear vision of what the next steps will be and what to expect. Sheri was referred to me and I'll definitely refer her onto others in my circle who may one day need her services.

Quality support and guidance

Sheri was very helpful in providing me with valuable perspective and guidance for how to proceed with a garnishment issue. She was attentive, engaged and proactively supportive with a result of me feeling that I had more of a understanding of my context and options.

We should have called you sooner!!!

My husband & I were referred to Sheri by friends who were happy with the help that she had given them. After struggling and drowning in debt, filing for bankruptcy was an extremely difficult decision for us to make. Sheri was exceptionally positive and helpful, supporting us through the process.... She handled our case with both professionalism and compassion, and made herself available when we needed her. There is such an unbelievable burden lifted off of our shoulders, and our only regret is that we didn’t call her sooner! Thank you Sheri! We highly recommend Sheri Nevlin!
