She May Have Saved My Life

I have a serious heart condition, ever-worsening arthritis of the spine and hips, and clinical-level anxiety. I became unemployed two years ago but soon afterward my health deteriorated to the point of making me unemployable. I accumulated bills that were more than double my yearly fixed income and ...was being sued in court by one of my creditors. At that point I knew that bankruptcy was my only option. Since I live in a rural area with no public transportation I could not survive if my car would be taken to fulfill part of the debt. I saw a small advertisement in my local newspaper for Attorney Metroka's bankruptcy services, did some comparison shopping, and found that her fee for this service would be more than reasonable. After we had a phone conversation I was sure that she would do a good job representing me in this matter. Actually, she did a GREAT job! She guided me every step of the way and explained the process in a very detailed yet understandable manner. If Attorney Metroka had not represented me I'm sure that my anxiety might have worsened sufficiently to give me a heart attack or stroke. I feel honored for having been given this opportunity to praise this extremely skillful and compassionate member of the legal profession.

Compassionate & Professional

My experience with Colleen Metroka was all positive and I would HIGHLY recommend her services. From my initial meeting to the completion of my case, she was always available to answer the numerous questions I had for her. Colleen treated me with dignity and compassion...which was not the case with ot...her attorneys I met with in the area. A+ rating from me!

Would I reccommend Atty Colleen Metroka?? YES

I was very nervous to go bankruptcy but Atty Colleen Metroka helped me understand how it works without talking down to me. I had alot of credit cards I could no longer keep up with because I lost my job and now I have to pay for my family,meds and rent with very little money and nothing left to pay ...on my cards. The collectors were calling me day and night. I couldn't take it anymore. I just needed someone to help me. I met with another Atty, but he did not make me feel com fortable. I decided to give it another try with someone else. I saw Atty Colleen Metrokas ad in the newspaper. I made an appointment, she saw me within a week of my call. She asked me simple questions to get started and she put it in her computer(it took about 1 hour), I had to fax her some info about my creditcards and stuff I own and she did the rest. I had to sign some papers, but no long forms to fill out ( thats what I was afraid of). I took the manditory bankruptcy course on line (easy). Thats pretty much everything. As soon as the case was filed the calls stopped (thank you) I now have to go to the hearing (I did not get the date from the court yet). Of course I am nervous about that too. Atty Metroka said she will be there with me at the hearing to guide me. She said after my bankruptcy is approved, I will be free and clear of my debt and no longer have to worry about paying the credit cards. Would I reccommend Atty Colleen Metroka?? YES

Atty. Colleen Metroka The Right Choice

Atty. Colleen Metroka helped me through a difficult time. She answered my questions and kept me informed. I am glad she was there for me. She was the right choice.

I Strongly Recommend Atty. Colleen Metroka!

I am very satisfied with the way my bankruptcy was handled! I was referred by a friend who praised Atty. Colleen Metroka as her lawyer in a bankruptcy case. Atty. Metroka has low fees, but she was available to me when I needed answers to my questions. She patiently explained the law to me and I fe...lt very confident in her knowledge. I never felt rushed and I appreciated her compassion with my situation. I had some tricky situations to my case and Colleen was able to assure me everything would be OK. And it was! At my bankruptcy hearing everything went smoothly! I am now debt free and ready to make a fresh start! I have since referred Atty. Metroka to a friend with confidence that my friend will be able to be in a better situation than she is now.
