Hired Law Firm

I am VERY pleased with this Law Firm and will most definitely recommend to friends and family!! I had almost lost my job as a driver. I hold a CDL. I had 45 calendar days to get it resolved in which I did not think it was going to happen. Amanda Hires made it happen!! Heather T was also great and very knowledgeable she was able to explain and answered any question I asked. Also, Amanda followed up with any concerns immediately. They are the Bomb!! Thank you!!

I have made some bad decisions in my life time with my credit. Being young I didn’t know that one day I would want to live a normal life. I didn’t care at the time about my credit at all. I met Mr. Schmidgall about two years ago. I’ve been going back and forth with his patience with me. Very respectful and understanding. I really thank God for him because now I can have my life back!!!!!! I recommend his services to ANYONE!!!!

Chris is by far the best attorney I have yet to use! He is very professional, knowledgeable, and affordable. Anytime I have had a question he is extremely prompt to reply. I have had nothing but great experiences with this firm and will continue to do all my legal business with him.
