Attorney Profile
Helping hundreds of individuals and families obtain a fresh start
“I am proud to have helped hundreds of individuals and families rid themselves of millions of dollars of crushing debt. I enjoy getting to know my clients and understanding their individual needs. My practice is based on building relationships and giving each client respect and compassion through what is often a very difficult time in their lives. I’ve learned over the years that most people filing for bankruptcy really want to meet their responsibilities, but find themselves unable to do so because of the difficult realities of their situation. I look forward to answering your questions and helping you and your family.” - Attorney Susan Grossberg
