“Dear Steve,
I have written before and am considering bankruptcy. How do I know if I’ve found a good bankruptcy attorney? Is there a website where I can find reviews of attorneys?
It seems that most people who submit reviews have a negative experience. I understand that there are people who have had positive experiences, but most of the time, don’t submit a review.
Bankruptcy attorneys are expensive so I want to make sure I hire the right one. Please advise! Thanks!
MariJa”
The Answer:
Dear MariJa,
Well it’s a bit like finding a good dentist. When I moved I had to go to three different dentists till I found one I liked.
Much of the relationship with the attorney is how well the office staff and the attorney do with communications and managing expectations. A brilliant attorney is worthless if they won’t call you back and their staff isn’t friendly.
I’ve put together some advice from attorneys on how to find a bankruptcy attorney. Click here to find a local bankruptcy attorney. If you don’t like that one, contact another.
You deserve to be treated with respect and professionalism.
Good hunting.
