“He was over and above what I expected.”

I was at the end of my rope with debt collectors, wage deductions, and citations of assets. I had lost my job, burned through my 401(k) and savings, and needed an attorney.

After reviewing my problem, Chapter 13 was the best option. Rich went to work, and what I thought would be a six-year repayment plan was discharged within two years. He was over and above what I expected.
