Made a tough situation easier. Excellent Attorney

After consulting with several local Bankruptcy attorneys in Gainesville, and 2 refusing to take my case, and others wanting to charge me just to review the means test and then determine if they would take the case, and charge me more, I met with Joe, and I decided to let Joe handle my case. From th...e beginning I knew that my case was not going to be an easy case, Joe met with me and walked me through the process, and was very honest and upfront that my case was not a simple case, and there could potentially be challenges, however he also took the time to explain that should certain challenges arise, how they would be handled and what the potential outcomes would be. I appreciated that Joe did not just tell me what I wanted to hear, and was upfront with the difficulties my situation presented. Once I retained Joe, he took care of everything else. He filed all the paperwork, and took the time to answer all my questions, and was able to successfully obtain my discharge. Also I want to point out as one of the horror stories I kept finding in my initial search for the correct attorney, was the report that attorneys sometimes do not show up at the meeting of creditors. I will say that with Joe I never had this worry, and that at my meeting of creditors I was not left hanging and alone to do it by myself. I would highly recommend if you are looking for a bankruptcy attorney to make the time and meet with Joe. He is by far one of the most reasonably priced attorney in Gainesville, and gets the job done.

Joseph Hadley Brown is the person to start with

Joseph Brown was great to work with. I never doubted that he took my case as seriously as I did. He always treated me with respect and answered my questions fully and promptly. I highly recommend him. If you are even considering bankruptcy, Joseph is the person to start with. After you talk to o...ther offices, you will immediately feel and see the difference and know Joseph is the person to go with. After the process is complete, you will know you made the right decision and teamed up with the right lawyer. That is how you want to feel in a situation where you need a lawyer and that is exactly how I feel now.

Bankrupcy made easy

I found Joe to be very helpful, knowledgeable, and always on top of things in my case. I did not feel like just another client, I felt like my time and personal interests mattered to him. I found what I was looking for in a lawyer. It was money well spent. I would hire him again in the future if I n...eeded to, and I would definitely recommend him to others.

Outstanding Service / Sincere Client Relationships

My family went through an unexpected and emotional Chapter 7. Joseph put our worries at ease and explained the process in detail. He was at our side and/or reachable via phone every step of the way. It was one of the toughest things we had to deal with and Joseph made us feel comfortable throughout t...he process. We could not have gone through this ordeal without Joseph's professional and personal effort. We are forever greatful!!
