The best experience I've ever had with a lawyer, ever.

Sean Serpe handled my Chapter 13 bankruptcy with a level of professionalism that I rarely see among attorneys of any ilk. In short, deciding to use him among the many BK lawyers I interviewed was the best decision I've ever made in my entire working life. A bankruptcy proceeding is never a happy ev...ent, but, dare I say it -- he actually made the entire process so pleasant that he reduced the negativity factor to ZERO. Mr. Serpe's ability to instill utter confidence while maintaining a high degree of legal competence was something to behold. I can't possibly recommend his services highly enough. R.K. NYC

Can't think of enough superlatives to thank this lawyer.

I rarely give testimonials, but in the case of Sean Serpe, it is I who asked him for this opportunity. I was just about to go with another bankruptcy attorney until a neighbor personally recommended Sean. I was later to learn that had I gone with the previous one, my life would have taken a far dif...ferent path, one not even worth mentioning here. Suffice it to say, a Chapter 13 proceeding is never a happy affair, but with Sean's able assistance, he made the entire experience so painless, supportive, and surprisingly easy that I felt compelled to post these comments. In fact, he had such an utterly professional, winning attitude that I was almost sad to see our brief time together come to an end (how many times can you say that about an attorney?)! He was much more than a lawyer to me, I actually think of him now as more like a good friend. In this world of over-hyped, over-charging professionals of every stripe, it is extremely rare to encounter such a wonderful, thoughtful, and caring individual. If you live in the New York area, don't even hesitate, go see Sean in times of financial need. I cannot recommend him highly enough. Kind Regards, Robert K. NYC
