Hired Attorney Walter A. Metzen

Mr. Metzen was professional, diligent, and readily available to answer any and all questions I had during the process. He made what could have been a difficult, stressful process relatively easy. He was honest and forthright throughout the process and all of my loans were discharged. I cannot recommend him enough.

Hired Law Firm

I went to one other bk attorney before Walter Metzen. Because I had several collection agencies filing lawsuits, this lawyer tried to use scare tactics into juicing more fee's and money from me. Thank god I found Walter Metzen through a friend. Along with his assistant, George George,their confidence was so contagious that I too was brave and confident. Please do yourself a favor if you are filing a bankruptcy - YOU MUST CALL WALTER METZEN - your future depends on it

This law firm represents Progressive Insurance. My son was involved in an auto accident. The other party sued my son for damages. I was also sued as the car title was in my name. The law firm represented my son and I since the coverage was with Progressive.

Bankruptcy Chapter 7

Hired Attorney Walter A. Metzen

I attempted to file my chapter 7 bankruptcy by myself. However, my case became extremely complicated and was completely out of my scope of knowledge. Walter was the only reasonable, fair, and patient attorney that would take on my case. He was trustworthy and forthcoming. Other attorneys I reached out to either would not take my case because I filed on my own, tried to charge me an excessive amount of money or tried to convince me to convert to a chapter 13. It was discouraging and scary because I had no idea how to proceed forward. Walter was able to keep my case as a chapter 7 but he also got it discharged without me losing anything or breaking the bank. I would recommend Walter 100 times over.
