The process of moving through a bankruptcy is difficult and scary enough for most, and while declaring bankruptcy should be a last resort, and one to be taken very seriously, the counsel you choose to aide you in navigating through this life changing event should be more than competent enough to guide you through what can be very murky waters and also instill confidence and hope of a new day once you have completed the journey. That feeling of competence, confidence, and a new beginning can truly make the difference. I am a professional, a business owner, and it was a difficult business situation that created my downfall. I started my bankruptcy journey with a different recommended law firm, and had a Very different experience. It was a female bankruptcy attorney, and I thought, looking for anything comfortable and familiar at this stressful time that being female myself we would at least have that in common. That much was true, but didn't matter much. Communication with that firm was incredibly difficult. Emails were frowned upon & phone conversations had to be scheduled. When you managed to get a phone conversation answers were few and very ambiguous, at best, leaving me feeling like I was swimming with sharks in chummed water and without a cage. Leaving that firm became a nightmare as well and cost me dearly. No-one should have to go through such a nightmare, especially when they are already going through the nightmare of a bankruptcy. I felt a bit shattered, and more than scarred when I showed up at Mr. Michael Baumers firm and asked them to review my case. Within minutes I could tell this experience was going to be different. Michael put me at ease almost immediately. There was no pretense, no "mystery", and all my questions at our initial meeting were welcomed and answered fully and satisfactorily. As we moved through the process, which went quite quickly and smoothly, emails and calls were welcomed, and answered or returned very promptly by Mr Baumers quite able, efficient and effective staff, Kevin & Renee, who always treated me with kindness and respect. In the end, the desired result was achieved, my bankruptcy and discharge granted as well, and all in a very timely manner. More importantly, I left the experience feeling confident & hopeful in my new beginning, and incredibly blessed for having the great fortune to have had Mr. Baumer and his firm on my team. I truly cannot thank them enough, but look forward to recommending them to anyone I can, as Michael Baumer and his team are truly lifesavers in my book!! Stevie B March 2019 read more

I would like to provide a revised review of my experience with my attorney. I was recently informed of a personal family emergency that affected Renee's ability to communicate during a certain period. I have since received an apology along with a detailed update, including an estimated filing date and an outline of the upcoming procedures for my case, which were communicated clearly via email. When I was searching for the best bankruptcy attorney, I received a strong recommendation from a trusted community attorney. At that time, this law firm stood out for its excellent reviews and reputation for trustworthiness, which led me to place my full confidence in them. Now that communication has resumed and my case is back on track, I am reassured in my decision. I am confident that the team will handle my case with the dedication and professionalism that earned them their top-tier reputation. Bankruptcy is a difficult and important decision, and I believe this firm is truly committed to supporting. Renee and Michael proved this to me and I would like to add an additional reference for those that are searching for attorney team who cares and who can rely on that you've found the correct one right here! read more

I had the best experience with this law firm and specifically my attorney, Megan Baumer. The entire staff was very helpful and friendly. They were there when I needed them! I had an unfortunate experience where a previous attorney bailed on me with days before we were to make an appearance. She was uncooperative, slandered me to my new attorney and was dishonest in an attempt to portray me in a bad light. Fortunately, this firm was able to see through the smoke screen. They picked up the ball, started from scratch (as the previous attorney would not return my file) and prepared a case in less than two weeks. They worked up until the day before our appearance. I can't recommend them enough. They work hard, are nice people, and will do what it takes to get the job done. They are fair, honest and reputable. Make sure to read the reviews and not just take an attorney's rating online at face value. Some of these lawyers actually write their own reviews and threaten people with lawsuits if they report their actual actions. Not the case here, this law firm is the real deal. You won't be wasting your time or money with them. I can't thank them enough. read more

We were nervous and felt a tremendous amount of guilt, shame and humiliation about our having to make the decision to file for bankruptcy. But Michael Baumer, Renee, and the entire staff, quickly assuaged any fears we had going into the process and assured us that there was light at the end of the tunnel. They thoroughly explained our options and walked us through the entire process from start to finish. Renee, who we worked with the closest, never once failed to return our calls or answer the many questions we had during the process. I have to say that Renee was truly a real comfort to us. The most important thing of all to my wife and me was that not once were we ever made to feel judged or ashamed, which allowed us to maintain our sense of dignity. And when it was all over, they were truly excited for us and and our fresh start. If you should ever find yourself in a similar situation and don't know who or where to turn for help, please do not hesitate to contact The Law office Michael Baumer. You will not regret your decision, I promise you. read more

In terms of bankruptcy, it's never going to be a pleasant experience. It was stressful, I had anxiety the entire time and had no clue what filing held for myself, my financial future or my family....but I was in great hands. Everyone in the office communicates with each other and knows what is going on with every case. They all are familiar with your situation and explain everything, to the point that YOU can understand. Even after filing, I had an issue and everyone of them were eager to help me and reassure me. I couldn't recommend a better law firm for fixing your troubles. Mr. Baumer, Melanie, Renee, Kevin and many more are in my good graces and I cannot thank them more. I am sure I have forgotten someone, but with the legal counsel and great guidance I received, the whole team deserves five stars!! Thanks y'all!! read more
