My Bankruptcy, Chapter 13 was confirmed.. I can finally sleep at night. After going through debt consolidation and a fast talking bankruptcy lawyer I hit a home run by contacting Barbie Lieber. Barbie Lieber took an embarrassing and stressful situation and turned into a manageable financial situation. She answered all my questions and hand held me throughout the bankruptcy process. I can't thank her enough for her knowledge and nonjudgmental attitude. She is an amazing lawyer. To anyone considering bankruptcy, Barbie Lieber should be your go to Lawyer.
Barbie Lieber pulled off another 100% victory for us. She just actually got my private student lender to discharge my huge debt! Unbelievable!!! Thank you so much Barbie! And again, I know I have thanked you a zillion times, but thank you so much for filing the chapter 7 for my wife and me a few years ago. As you know, we were able to refinance our house recently for a much lower rate because we had no credit card and medical debt due to the bankruptcy and because you resolved the private student loan debt!T hank you for your extraordinary thoroughness, patience and honesty. Other lawyers told us that we had to file chapter 13, but after spending the time carefully analyzing our debts, you concluded that you could file a chapter 7 and you were right. You have relieved us of so much stress. Thank you for being there for my wife as well all of these years. And thanks for always taking my calls and responding to my emails. Fondly, Sean
Barbie went above and beyond. She provided excellent service and gave me all her attention. She is always available for advice and spends the time to get to know you and your case. I couldn't ask for a better lawyer. Thanks Barbie!
GREAT attorney its 6 years later and is still reaching out and lending a hand explaining to my new mortgage company about my 2014 filing! Couldn’t ask for a better attorney. She truly is the best…..
I called on Saturday afternoon. I did not leave a message, but she returned my call maybe 3 minutes later. Took her time to explain in detail all the steps I had to take to settle my issue. Very knowledgeable and efficient if I could give her 100 stars I would. Called me back twice to make sure I understood everything. Thank you very much for your time and knowledge. I truly appreciate it.
Barbie made the whole process of filing for bankruptcy easy to understand and stress-free. She guided me every step of the way and put my mind at ease. And she doesn't use a cover attorney. She was right there with me when I went before the court. She is professional and personable. I highly recommend her!!
Barbie is the real deal. She's smart, caring, experienced, and hyper-organized—everything you'd want in a lawyer for this difficult period with many moving parts. Bankruptcy can be a nightmare, but Barbie makes it all seem painless. From the get go, she taught me every step of the process, delineated what she'd need from me, and explained how she foresaw the outcome. She filed within a few short days after I sent her my documents—which is frankly unbelievable, knowing horror stories of other lawyers who are difficult to track down, or who take their time to get anything done. And of course: The filing proceeded in perfect order. Everything said on these reviews has been true from my experience. Barbie is a lifesaver. I can't recommend her enough.
Barbie Dawn Lieberman, is a great and knowledgeable attorney. She is ready to answer any questions that come her way. She is also very prompt with answers. She was very helpful to me and I can say without a shadow of a doubt that she is not there to help for the financial gain, but to really help people that are in tough situations.
My Angel There was a night I was at work and I receive a call from my “lawyer “ who was filing my case >.<!! He never made me feel like Barbie did. With him it was I was never in peace stress the whole time and 7 months he didn't do Shi** So I look up in Google and found this beautiful lady I texted her and she texted me back in 2 minutes. She stated asking questions and it was on :) since then !! It took this wonderful lady two exactly days to file my case. Crazy right what one couldn’t do it in 7 months she did it in two days. Do I recommend this lady? Yes Pleaseeeeee !! I wish that everyone one who is going through this process would find her on the ways because she is simply the best !! The BEST !! Ok.. but this is not everything she made me feel like part of her family giving little tricks for 1st time mommy. She recommended me some books for my daughter. She is a hard worker EXCELLENT WORKER and a great human being ❤️ I know it’s hard going through this but this makes us feel that nothing is going all. And I can say more but I want people to have their own beautiful experience with her.
When I got notified that my credit card company was suing me for outstanding debt, at the end of 2020 no less, when I'd become unemployed, I felt completely overwhelmed. I searched "NYC Bankruptcy lawyer," landed on Avvo, and saw Barbie's excellent ratings. I emailed her right away and she responded immediately. I am so glad I found Barbie. She is thorough, efficient, compassionate, and incredibly hard-working. She helped me file for Chapter 13 bankruptcy within weeks of contacting her, and she made the process as easy as it possibly could have been. While filing for bankruptcy can bring feelings of shame and fear, Barbie was in my corner throughout the process and prepared me for every step. I am so grateful to her; it is a huge weight off of my shoulders to not have the debt hanging over me as I try to get back on my feet financially. Hire Barbie, you won't regret it!
