About
I've been a practicing attorney for more than 34 years now. I graduated from the New England School of Law in Boston with my Juris Doctor cum laude and went on to receive my Master of Laws and Letters in American banking Law Studies from Boston University School of Law. I worked for the FDIC as thier primary bankruptcy counsel in the New England area for about 6-1/2 years from 1990 to 1996. In 1995 I received dual Board Certification from the American Bankruptcy Board of Certification (now the American Board of Certification) in both Consumer and Business Bankruptcy Law as separate disciplines. I have been re-certified by the ABC in 2000, 2005 and 2010 since my original certification. I have operated my own boutique law practice since June of 1996 in the Metro-Boston Area representing, Debtors, Creditors and Trustees in Bankruptcy. I have also served as adjunct factulty in courses on Bankruptcy law at Bently University, New England School of Law and Northeastern University Law School, as well as giving seminars on bankruptcy law to Massachusetts District Court Judges and Massachusetts Probate and family Court Judges.One of the nicest things that my colleagues and clients have repeatedly told me (and others) is that my approach to bankruptcy practice is very "creative" and that I am able to look at problems using a very much "outside the box" approach, so that even where a client has "dug themselves a hole", I am able to salvage their situation so as to protect their practical interests, not just their technical legal rights. I take great pride in coming up with practical solutions to difficult issues that push the envelope of what is possible, even using something as complex as the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.

When I contacted Mr. Gottlieb about my situation, I was scared and unsure what to do. He is incrediably knowledgable about bankruptcy law and very empathic and spent time answering my questions and concerns. He also helped me with advice on what he suggested to do for next course of actions. I can finally breath again. Thank you so much!!!!
I have never met in my 61 years of life such a talented Bankruptcy Lawyer who has performed so well and very brilliantly over a five year period that he represented me. He constantly reminded me about the importance of paying attention to judges orders and rulings and that failures carries a significant cost. He really gave me more advice than I paid for. Goodness, he knows his stuff very well in all areas of the Bankruptcy Law in all of it's various chapters. I can tell you from my own experience in Chapter 13 filling that he made it possible for a successful conclusion recently. I will say to anyone in need of debt relief by filing for Bankruptcy to give him a try and you will be glad to have done so.
Attorney Richard Gottlieb overachieved my expectations. He demonstrated confidence in his subject matter by demonstrating solutions through using the laws of a bankruptcy in Massachusetts. I was instantly comfortable with my direction and guidance based on his demeanor and his credibility, recognized by his usage of words and his citations of the law. The law is powerful when used properly and specific to my situation. His work ethic was organized and strategic (to my best possible advantage) as there was not one draft of the paperwork but in my case there were five. A very structured and methodical process was made easy. Finally, Attorney Richard Gottlieb provided me with consistent communications. Each correspondence was followed up with step by step conversations. Without being specific, my money was well spent, without any regrets and led me to the best possible outcomes. If you are looking for someone to represent your needs, look no further. Don’t hesitate.
Before deciding to work with Richard, I met with 3 bankruptcy attorneys. Ultimately, I decided on working with Richard because of his firm's niche focus on bankruptcy exclusively and his experience in representing both sides in bankruptcy cases. I found Richard to be pleasant, respectful, and very transparent, whereas I felt that the other attorneys I met with were much more like salesmen more focused on volume than their clients' cases specifically. Overall, working with Richard was both informative and pleasant. The idea of bankruptcy was certainly daunting, but Richard's encyclopedic knowledge and extensive experience in bankruptcy law specifically is tremendous. Additionally, Richard's passion for the nuances of the bankruptcy process and his sense of humor is truly second to none. I cannot recommend Richard enough. Thanks to him, I was able to achieve all of the results I was hoping to achieve through Chap. 7 and can breathe easy for the first time in a very long time.
Rick was an absolute godsend to me. Not only did he walk me through the ABC’s of how a Ch.13 case works, he genuinely cared that I understood everything each step of the way. I had a lot of questions and some doubts about even going through with the case, and Rick was honest about everything that I would encounter and made me feel comfortable. He always kept me updated as to what was going on and made sure any decisions to be made were my own. I would recommend Attorney Gottlieb to anyone looking to get their life back on track with the help of a real professional. Make the right move, call Rick Gottlieb!
Richard made this entire process extremely easy to understand. He was very patient and understanding regarding any questions, making this very stressful time in my life that much easier. I would highly recommend anyone considering such an avenue to speak to him as he will help you understand if it would make sense in your specific situation. Thank you Richard!
Atty. Gottlieb helped me at a time when my life was in a precarious state. I had contracted cancer and retired and needed help with managing my finances. Atty. Gottlieb was excellent at explaining my options and the law. I would recommend him without hesitation.
I met Richard when my life and financial situation have pulled me down really bad. A previous lawyer had screwed up my bankruptcy really bad too. I was on my last breath. Richard saved me form brink of disaster, cleaned up my prior Attorney mess and charged me so little I couldn't believe it. This man is something of a legend. Yes I am a real client. . Troy
With no prior knowledge of Boston attorneys, I contacted Mr Gottlieb for advice and guidance. He delivered in spades. He spent time with me on the phone giving me a precise plan of action. If you need help with a bankruptcy, I would highly recommend him.
Counselor Gottlieb is fantastic! My wife and I had to file a bankruptcy because of medical debts that we incurred due to insurance complications with our daughters birth. We were in financial ruin and he single handedly helped us to turn everything around. We are so lucky to have found Mr. Gottlieb. He runs a solo practice (not a giant mill like most bankruptcy firms) where he gave us his undivided attention, as much time as we needed to understand the process and he personally helped us every step of the way. He always answered the phone or called us back almost immediately when we needed his help. He was honest, straightforward and he is the only reason that this process went so smoothly. I will be forever appreciative of all of the hard work he has done to help my family get back on track and start being able to save for retirement and our daughters future. I happily give him my highest recommendation and I would strongly urge anyone in the Boston Area to go see him first.
