Coleman Ellis got rid of any bankruptcy blues for me. He gave me good advice and suggestions but let me decide what I wanted to do. He explained how things worked with a bankruptcy procedure. He was also very calm and patience when I might have been a little stressed out which helped me cope with things I was unfamiliar with.

Coleman went above and beyond for me and my husband. My husband passed away 2 days before our hearing and Coleman was able to handle everything for me and I was able to deal with my loss.

Coleman was very professional. Both Coleman and his staff made the entire process of filling bankruptcy as simple and painless as could be. Each step was explained in ways I could understand and if I ever had questions I was always able to get a response from a staff member within a timely manner.

Chapter 13 Bankruptcy filing. Very good and efficient attorney. Even though it was beyond our control, it was not a good feeling to have to file bankruptcy and a bit embarrassing, felt at ease at the consultation because of Coleman Ellis.
