Will I get the personal attention I need from a large bankruptcy law firm? Absolutely!

  We realize that some clients may be concerned that they will not get as much personal attention from a larger law firm. However, the truth is that larger firms generally provide much more individualized service because they have employees who can concentrate on specific aspects of the case. Here are some examples of our key employees:

     • Leslie Pinzone – Leslie’s primary job is to assist clients when they fall behind on their mortgage payments or Chapter 13 bankruptcy plan payments after filing for bankruptcy relief. In order to resolve these situations, Leslie must deal with the paralegals and attorneys who represent the banks and bankruptcy trustees. Because our law firm handles a large volume of cases, Leslie has gotten to know most of her counterparts at these offices, and they have gotten to know her. There are open lines of communication, as well as a tremendous amount of professional respect, and this allows for problems to be solved fairly and efficiently.

     • Kelly Warner – Kelly’s primary job is to prepare and file Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy petitions. Whether you live in Rochester or Buffalo or any other county we serve, Kelly is the paralegal who will file your case, as she has done for thousands of other clients. She will be in touch with you as your case is prepared, and she works with Peter personally on each and every case. She has an incredible amount of knowledge regarding the expectations of the courts and the trustees regarding Chapter 13 cases.
