I had the pleasure of working with Joel recently, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the results. His expertise and attention to detail were evident throughout the entire process. From the initial consultation to the resolution of my case, Joel demonstrated a deep understanding of bankruptcy law and provided clear, concise guidance. His responsiveness and professionalism made a challenging situation much more manageable, and I felt confident in their ability to navigate the complexities of my financial issues. I highly recommend this lawyer to anyone seeking reliable and effective representation during challenging times.

My family suggested that I consider BANKRUPTCY as the solution to getting out of debt when I was trying to sell my house and move to a new home without furniture or other accumulated stuff. They found Joel and helped me get to see him in a timely fashion. He was excellent in calming me down over BANKRUPTCY and the patient in helping me gather the files necessary for him to file for BANKRUPTCY. After a review of the files, he advised me the best option was Chapter 7 and that was filed. He had no control over TRUSTEE change in the middle which delayed listing the house for sale but now we have a CONTRACT of SALE, have vacated the home / property and have the DISCHARGE waiting for CLOSING.

I’ve used Mr. Spivack on multiple occasions. Chapter 7 and a Chapter 13. He is all that and more!! He will break it down to you and keep it real with yo, and actually care to help you if he can. If he can’t help you , he will let you know! I gave up my home in a chapter 7 then 2 years later decided to keep it after getting a great job and my whole life situation changing . I went with a Chapter 13 and was approved because of Mr. Spivack. This is a great man and he knows his stuff , I will always support and send anyone to him. Thankyou Joel! 5 Stars!!!!

Working with Joel was a great experience. I spoke with Joel on the phone just to see if this was something I would want to consider. The knowledge and compassion was what made me decide this is the attorney I want to represent me with my case. I made the right decision this was the best experience for me. This was not a easy decision to file chapter7 When you have an attorney that’s honest reliable, and knowledgeable it makes all the difference. Thank you for your service.

I highly recommend Joel as a bankruptcy attorney. He was extremely knowledgeable and patient throughout the entire process of filing for Chapter 13 bankruptcy. Joel was able to explain the complex legalities of the bankruptcy process in a way that was easy for me to understand, and was always available to answer any questions or concerns that I had. Joel was very thorough in preparing my case, and made sure that all the necessary documentation was completed accurately and on time. He also helped me navigate the many requirements and obligations that come with filing for bankruptcy, and was with me every step of the way until my case was successfully discharged. In addition to his legal expertise, Joel was compassionate and understanding of my financial situation and the stress that comes with bankruptcy. His professionalism and attention to detail made the entire process as painless and stress-free as possible. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with the legal services provided by Jo

Joel handled a for-sale-by-owner transaction for a property I was selling. He was extremely knowledgable, responsive and very detailed oriented. He was always a step ahead of the process and the buyer's attorney. His prompt responses to any communication Made me feel like a valued and important client. He is just as personable and friendly and he is professional!

My husband and I had an absolutely wonderful experience working with Joel Spivack to sell our home. Joel was not only knowledgeable of real estate law, but he was also courteous, efficient, VERY easy to contact, and incredibly responsive to all of our questions and concerns. Joel made a process that could have been very stressful extremely comfortable instead. We highly recommend Joel to anyone in need of a great real estate attorney!!!
