Have you consulted or hired this lawyer?
Leave a review about your experience with this lawyer.Mr. Higson handled a bankruptcy for myself, my partner over 3 years back. He was then there to handle my Father-in-law and my partners brother in Bankruptcy. Daniel worked up Power of Attorney for financial and health for me and my partner.
Very caring and covered all the bases of what we could expect - as this was the first time for filing bankruptcy. Always took my calls or returned them within a reasonable time.
