I was sued by a debt collector. I must have called and inquired over a dozen law firms in the Chicagoland area. Many did not want to take my case and others wanted an hourly rate or a sum up front. What was different with Michael Goldstein's practice vs. any other firm I had contacted is his payment structure for his representation was based on percentage of savings making it affordable for me to hire him as my attorney. He was professional and understanding with my situation. Throughout the entire process he was diligent in preparing me for court. I personally did not have to step in the court room because he had my case dismissed. I highly recommend Michael Goldstein to anyone in a similar situation.
