Melissa handled our bankruptcy...she was wonderful! She had a clear set price and was personal and extremely helpful and hands on throughout. She is experienced and knows well all aspects of your case, is very thorough and follows up after everything with phone calls, emails and written communication. Plus as a bonus she was easy to talk to, has a great personality and we now consider her a friend. What a great service she provides in this area! She cares about her job and her clients. Well worth a drive!
Melissa Decker is exceptional! Her level of professionalism and attention to detail are very hard to find these days. She kept in fantastic communication with me throughout the entire process. Her personal investment with all of this made it so much easier for me, she truly cares. My case had to do with unemployment claiming i was over paid last year which Melissa proved to be untrue with all of her research in to my employers at the time and the mistakes on their end with all of the numbers submitted incorrectly, etc. I was working very part time and collecting unemployment at the same time, it was so complicated but Melissa got to the bottom of it for me. She made the phone calls necessary when i did not know where to begin. She is beyond helpful and effective. Melissa saved me thousands of dollars when the decision came back from the State of Colorado it was their mistake not mine. I highly recommend Law for Locals and will absolutely request Melissa for any future legal needs and again, strongly recommend her to anyone.
Melissa Decker handled my bankruptcy case so professionally. Her attention to detail and personal caring through the whole process made me feel at ease. I could not have had a better lawyer.
I am extremely fortunate to have found Melissa and have her represent me in my Medical Bankruptcy. I was scared to file but from the moment I contacted her she was pleasant, supportive, thorough, and made me feel much better about filing. I'm grateful to have found such a wonderful lawyer to represent my case and will be using her services again in the future whenever I need legal advice.
She is honest and let me know what needs to be done. She was always available when I need her and answered all my questions. I highly recommend her to anyone.
I contacted Melissa following the death of my wife, to review and update my legal affairs. We redid my Will, Power of Attorney and added a Beneficiary deed to reflect my new status.She was great! No legal mumbo- jumbo. Straight forward, with a great sense of humor. Things were done in a timely manner and very reasonable.Go see her if you need legal help.
I consulted Ms. Decker with regard to information on bankruptcy. She was knowledgeable, thorough, and communicated clearly regarding my options and the risks and benefits.
