During a very difficult time we made the decision to seek out another attorney Michelle Bass took care of her case treated us with excellent customer service because she truly cares about what happens to the people she supports. I would highly recommend her for anyone looking to understand the consequences of filing and have someone be an advocate for restructuring their finances.

Michelle inherited my Chapter 13 Bankruptcy case about half way through the five year plan due to the original lawyer leaving the law firm. We talked about a half hour to review my case history. At this time I felt she was very professional/knowledgeable and cared to provide me with the best legal service possible. Michelle reviewed my case and discovered my original lawyer missed a few things or was not aware of. She actively pursued to rectify this through the court system. Michelle was in constant contact with me as developments or concerns arise. I could not ask for more of a professional service rendered through a difficult time. There is a reason why Michelle was recognized by the Michigan Super Lawyers as a Rising Star!!

We unfortunately fell into bankruptcy with our small business. We were referred to Michelle by our Corporate attorney. Needless to say we were so very grateful and thankful for such an excellent referral. From step 1 to the very end of our bankruptcy proceedings, Michelle was on top of everything ! She was personable, professional, efficient, knowledgeable, and more. Being that this was all new to us, Michelle explained the happenings in a language that we could understand. Any calls and/or questions were responded to within the day. I have recommended and highly recommend Michelle in this regard. We cannot thank her enough for all that she provided to us. Even though our bankruptcy has ended (a long 5 years), I feel confident to contact her with any of my legal needs. Michelle is one of the best !!

I needed to declare bankruptcy because my failing health depleted my savings. bill collectors called and threatened me daily. I had never been in a position like this. I was distraught. I hired Michelle Bass after she convinced me the sky was not falling. She then, with her compassionate way proved to me the sky was not falling and there was a way out. Her thorough expertise, ethical manner and reassuring nature helped me turn my life around for the better. She filed my Chapter 13 bankruptcy and I am now on my road to financial recovery. I would recommend Michelle Bass without reservation.

Michelle was just wonderful to work with. While bankruptcy is never a fun time she helped my wife and I get a fair chapter 13 program. She did this effectively and compassionately to make the process less stressful on both my wife who was going thru cancer treatment and myself who was her caretaker. Michelle is both hard worker and a very compassionate professional and I would have no fear recommending her to family and friends.

Michelle represented my wife and I in a bankruptcy. She was very attentive and address everyone of our questions, even the dumbest ones. She made us feel extremely relaxed in a very stressful process. Michelle told us where to be, and when. Always walking us through, basically taking us by the hand and leading the way. I've recommended her to a number of friends and family, and would do so again. You can't go wrong with her professionalism and compassion as you deal with very nerve rattling ordeal. I can't say enough about her. If for some unforeseen reason I had to do this again, be sure I'd be knocking on her door.

Michelle Bass represented us in our Chapter 13 case. She was very knowledgeable in all aspects of our complex case. She made the involved process understandable to the lay person. She was also great in responding quickly to our questions. Since this was a long, involved 6 year process, we were happy to have our hands held throughout the stressful ordeal by Michelle. I would definitely recommend her for her personability, intelligence, and kindness if you are embarking on a Chapter 13.

I was referred to Michelle by an associate and I am very grateful that I landed in her caring, compassionate and Professional hands! She offered terrific guidance with her thorough evaluation of our situation; she communicated clearly and consistently through our 5 plus years working together and equally impressive was her ability to offer dignity and respect through a very difficult situation. I highly recommend Michelle, she is excellent!
