Easy part to a difficult process
We did our online portion at night after work with our hectic schedule and called the next day to do the verbal part. Very easy to use system, very nice person we spoke to on the phone. Made the difficult process of bankruptcy that much easier for us

Terri was so wonderful in my session with her, I felt completely at ease afterwards. Thank you Terri, from the bottom of my heart ♥️
