Eugene assisted me with pre-divorce bankruptcy and various matters thereafter and made the processes very simple. He is a knowledgeable attorney and takes the extra step for confidentiality. What is most impressive is how responsive he is and forthcoming. I cannot stress enough that Eugene is unlike any attorney I’ve ever dealt with in that he truly takes client service and responsiveness seriously which tended to improve the efficiency and convenience of the issues being dealt with. I highly recommend him.

Recently, the economic downturn required I face the prospect of having to close my business and force a new economic reality upon my family. We knew much would change but there was one thing my wife and I hoped and prayed for: to keep our home. Involved with a franchise, the Small Business Administration and a national, deep pocketed landlord, we faced an uphill battle and few encouraging words that we would be successful. I interviewed five bankruptcy attorneys in total. None provided the feeling of confidence and the sense that our goal was attainable until we met Gene Melchionne. While our bankruptcy was very complicated and at times stressful, Gene was always there to keep us calm and on task. His demeanor is exceptional and his willingness to go the extra mile, dig deep to find creative solutions and continuously look out for our best interests was always very clear. We didn’t hire an attorney when we found Gene, we found a friend who cared about us and cared about doing the best job possible. We can’t thank Gene enough for all that he has done. He is an exceptional bankruptcy attorney and one that we would highly recommend to all. Gene, my family thanks you for all your great work. And, yes, we kept our home. B. Hartford, CT area

From the first consultation to the end of the case, Attorney Melchionne helped me understand what was going on and what would happen next. He is not like other lawyers and uses technology and computers more than anyone I ever met.
