I was referred to HRLS by another attorney. My initial concern was whether or not I'd be able to get this process going, would I qualify for bankruptcy? I was really nervous, but was quickly put at ease. The attorney made me feel comfortable with her knowledge and communication skills!

When I was struggling financially, a friend of mine referred me to Hampton Roads Legal Services. I was concerned at first whether I would even be able to file bankruptcy, but all my concerns were put to rest and I was provided step by step instructions on how to do it. They made sure I was well prepared and informed during the entire process and everyone was really friendly. The staff was very understanding and made me believe I could change my circumstances, which I did!  

T. Pittman - Norfolk, VA

I had three major concerns when looking for a bankruptcy attorney.  1. Cost: I wanted to make sure I was able to make payment installments.  2. Attorney Reputation: I wanted to be able to read reviews from former clients. 3. Understanding Requirements: I wanted a firm that would provide verbal and written instructions on the process. I felt very comfortable in the initial consultation and was provided with all the necessary information and paperwork to get started. I really liked how the attorney was able to explain the entire process in layman's terms. The location of the office was very convenient and the staff was very nice and seemed very concerned about doing everything correctly and accurately.

I reached out to HRLS because I needed to stop the foreclosure on my home. At the time, the public sale was less than 2 weeks away and I was nervous meeting with the attorney and worried about the outcome. However, after meeting with Sebastiana I began to relax. She was very knowledgeable and optimistic which made me feel a lot better about the situation. I liked the way this whole process was explained to me and I had great communication with my paralegal Desirae. I'm very happy with how my bankruptcy turned out!

I choose HRLS because of the great online reviews! I was concerned and really needed my judgment to go away. I was amazed by how quickly all this could be done. All my needs were met perfectly and the attorney was very comforting and informing.

Sebastiana explained everything so clearly to me in my consultation that I would give them a 10 out of 10! The staff is very friendly and helpful. I loved the discounts and payment options they offered and how fast they were able to get me back in a better financial situation.  

A. Robinson - Virginia Beach

My daughter referred me to HRLS, I was initially worried about finances, would I have to pay in full? What if I lost my income? The attorney explained everything to me in detail in the initial consultation and I felt much calmer.  

I didn't really struggle while choosing a bankruptcy attorney, but the choice was easy for me. The staff was excellent, the attorney encouraged me to go along with the process and it felt good!   

S. Jordan - Chesapeake

I needed help out of a hole I was in and wanted a fresh start to do things different than before. I wanted to learn how to budget better so I choose HRLS to help me start over. I was concerned that I wouldn't qualify to file, that I couldn't afford a bankruptcy and I was just generally worried because I didn't know what a bankruptcy entailed. I was very nervous in my first consultation but they quickly made me feel comfortable and every question or concern that I had was answered in detail. Everyone in the office was very nice and non judgemental, I would recommend them to anyone who is struggling financially because they are a wonderful group of people!

I was struggling with a mortgage conflict and costly repairs to my house that needed to get done. I was also struggling with health issues and high medical expenses. I was concerned about filing for bankruptcy because I wasn't sure how taxes would work afterwards, what would happen with my job and insurance as well as a bunch of other concerns. I was worried about keeping my family together and providing for them, it was a very stressful time. Hampton Roads Legal Services were very friendly and patient as well as showed great concern for my situation. I would definitely recommend this firm!  

I. Orme - Virginia Beach

I was referred to Hampton Roads Legal Services by another law firm. I was concerned about my work situation and losing my home. After meeting with the attorney, my comfort level was high. I felt like she knew exactly what bankruptcy process was needed for my situation. I highly recommend HRLS!

I choose Hampton Roads Legal Services after I heard my friends speak so fondly of them. I hoped and prayed that I would get the help I needed, and HRLS did not disappoint. I felt really good after the initial consultation and was amazed by the level of concern I was shown!  

T. Pryden - Chesapeake

I choose to contact Hampton Roads Legal Services because of the great reviews that I read online! Then when I visited the office, everyone was friendly and professional as well as knowledgeable. I was concerned that I wouldn't qualify for bankruptcy, that it would be insanely expensive and that I would have to wait several months before filing. All these concerns were alleviated after my first consultation! At first I was very nervous  because I had consulted with another firm prior to coming here and they had told me I needed to wait to file. The attorney I met with had the answers to all of my questions and offered solutions to my problems as well as explained every step in the process. The firm was quick and efficient, knowledgeable, professional, friendly and offered payment plans as well as incentives. It was great!  I think other firms should try and provide the same A+ service that I received here at HRLS. I will be giving you glowing recommendations!

I was being pressured by a creditor and had to choose between the back interest and monthly payments or my medical care. It was too much to handle, financially. I was worried about filing for bankruptcy because I didn't know exactly what to expect and whether I would be treated fairly. After the first consultation I felt confident and more hopeful than I had in a long time. Ms Alexandria Vansteeter specifically was very friendly, helpful and put me at ease. She took the time to answer my questions and explain things as much as I needed. I would recommend Hampton Roads Legal Services because they are patient, timely, helpful and have good attitudes.   

M. Phillips, Virginia Beach

My husband's student loans came into repayment unexpectedly, making it impossible for us to make our credit card payments. This forced us to make the choice to file for bankruptcy. I felt like a failure and didn't want to not pay my credit cards but honestly, we had no choice but to take this path. Thankfully, I felt much better about the whole process once I started working with the team at Hampton Roads Legal Services. The staff was really friendly, the service was excellent (didn't have to wait long for appointments) and they were all very organized and knowledgeable. I would recommend this firm to anyone going through financial stress, this process was a lot less painful that I had expected, they never made me feel like a failure.  Thank you HRLS!

I struggled with finding an attorney I could trust and was embarrassed that people would find out about my financial struggle. Walking into the office at Hampton Roads Legal Services was a calming feeling, it was very peaceful. The staff and lawyers were very friendly and the payment plan they offered was very helpful. They offered me step by step guidance that was repeated as needed for me to get a better understanding. I would definitely recommend this firm!   

Dena C - Virginia Beach

There was no way I could get ahead of my credit card, the debt was so overwhelming. I decided that I didn't want to leave a bunch of credit card bills for my family to try and pay off, if something happened to me. My biggest concern about hiring an attorney was that I wouldn't live long enough to complete the payback, hopefully that won't be the case. I had a great experience with the firm!   

A.W. Mayberry - Virginia Beach

As an introvert, I was worried about meeting with an attorney because I thought the experience would be like things I've seen on TV, where the attorney is loud and demanding. I was also worried that I was going to be admonished, judged or scolded and that the whole thing would feel like a tax audit. This was not the case. I felt like I was being protected and defended the whole way, and the staff made me feel at ease with their confidence and their "can do/will do" attitudes. Everyone had that quiet professional energy which along with the discounts you offer made my decision to choose you very simple.

When I found myself struggling financially, I started searching for someone who could guide me with what would be a new start for me. I'm young and very unknowledgeable so I needed some clear guidance from a professional. Attorney Bradstreet provided me with detailed insight. She explained all the options I had and payment discounts that could be provided and all around made my initial fear of filing for bankruptcy disappear. It was a very pleasant experience. My questions were always answered promptly and everything that was expected from me was made clear from the initial visit. The firm provided clear guidelines and structure and had the ability to deal with people in stressful situations. I have met with several different lawyers for various reasons and I would love to see more law firms handle clients who are mentally tired and stressed, with the same compassion that I received here. I would absolutely recommend this firm to anyone in financial distress!

I was able to relate to a female better which improved my overall experience, it was easy to make appointments and the prices for the services are fair. I would recommend this firm to anyone in financial distress!
