Reviews and Ratings

I had the privilege of being represented by Richard Gottlieb in a complex cross-state case, and I couldn't be more impressed with his professionalism and expertise. He carefully assessed my situation and devised a great plan, which ended up ensuring a win-win for all parties involved. His deep understanding of the intricacies of my case and his strategic thinking were evident throughout the entire process. I truly felt supported every step of the way, which is where many lawyers fall short! Should the need arise, I wouldn't hesitate to hire him again—though I hope it won't be necessary! :)

The situation was dire. I had split with my wife years earlier. My children (including my autistic son) – were living with their mother, whose mental illness had incapacitated her. The second mortgage on the house – with a disreputable bank – had not been paid in years. The only way to keep the house from foreclosure (and a roof over their heads) was for me to file bankruptcy. With the greatest patience, empathy, and skill, Richard Gottlieb provided the legal assistance needed to avert foreclosure. More importantly, Richard Gottlieb provided the guidance over subsequent years that enabled me to both secure new housing for my children, and ultimately discharge the bankruptcy. Mr. Gottlieb’s was always personally involved in my case – I rarely, if ever, spoke with an assistant. If a question or issue arose, he always had the facts of the case at hand – or had an answer or advice within 24 hours. His familiarity and relationships with the court are unparalleled – which turned out to be essential in my particular circumstance. All of this, combined with his perseverance on behalf of his clients, makes him the best at his profession.

Attorney Richard Gottlieb was the only attorney that quickly called me back and gave me reassurance I was in good hands at a time when I felt all hope was lost. He took the time to really listen to all of the facts and walked me through the legal process so that I knew what to expect. I've never been involved in a legal case and I was at the point I was all out of options. Richard took on my case and I immediately felt a sense of relief. His warm and personable style gave me a sense of comfort throughout the process. He always ensured he kept me up to date every step of the way. No matter what time of day or day of the week, Richard made himself available. He really made me feel I was his only client. Never concerned about the time he took with me and kept my expectations in check. He did a fantastic job. I would highly recommend him!

When I first meet with Mr. Gottlieb, I was kind of nervous because never been in situation like that. Mr. Gottlieb made me feel comfortable for my first visit till the end of the process. He is a good listener, excellent leader, trustworthy and very professional, I feel as part of my family and confident talking to him about my Chapt 7 case that I filled. Mr. Gottlieb gave me the right advise according to my case. Mr. Gottlieb took all his time to explain everything in detail to satisfied my needs and what to expect in order for me to make my own decision. He gave advise whenever needed; He was always responsive to any question that I had about my case in a timely manner. Mr. Gottlieb did amazing work to find the best outcome for my case. I advise anyone working with Mr. Gottlieb to be honest with him and do not hide any information about the case which will help faster the process and lead to a successful result and avoid any negative impact. Whatever I said about him it’s never enough to express my gratitude to Mr. Gottlieb, his professionalism and compassion. I highly recommend Mr. Gottlieb to anyone filling bankruptcy. The right man on the right Job :)

I first met with Mr.Gottlieb back in February 2022. Attorney Gottlieb explained everything clearly as far as what was going to happen what needed to happen and everything in between. After my initial consultation with Attorney Richard Gottlieb I knew without a doubt that I wanted his representation NO MATTER what the cost. Best decision I have ever made Attorney Gottlieb was always available for questions and concerns through out the entire process of my case. Everything I was informed of by Attorney Gottlieb was helpful and true. I have recommended several friends to Mr.Gottlieb and will continue to do so as long as he has his practice. ABSOLUTELY UNBELIEVABLE great at what he does and has quite the passion for it as well. I can’t thank him enough for all of his efforts and outstanding representation..

— Client 06/25/2022

When I contacted Mr. Gottlieb about my situation, I was scared and unsure what to do. He is incrediably knowledgable about bankruptcy law and very empathic and spent time answering my questions and concerns. He also helped me with advice on what he suggested to do for next course of actions. I can finally breath again. Thank you so much!!!!

— Client 07/26/2021

I have never met in my 61 years of life such a talented Bankruptcy Lawyer who has performed so well and very brilliantly over a five year period that he represented me. He constantly reminded me about the importance of paying attention to judges orders and rulings and that failures carries a significant cost. He really gave me more advice than I paid for. Goodness, he knows his stuff very well in all areas of the Bankruptcy Law in all of it's various chapters. I can tell you from my own experience in Chapter 13 filling that he made it possible for a successful conclusion recently. I will say to anyone in need of debt relief by filing for Bankruptcy to give him a try and you will be glad to have done so.

— Client 07/07/2021

Attorney Richard Gottlieb overachieved my expectations. He demonstrated confidence in his subject matter by demonstrating solutions through using the laws of a bankruptcy in Massachusetts. I was instantly comfortable with my direction and guidance based on his demeanor and his credibility, recognized by his usage of words and his citations of the law. The law is powerful when used properly and specific to my situation. His work ethic was organized and strategic (to my best possible advantage) as there was not one draft of the paperwork but in my case there were five. A very structured and methodical process was made easy. Finally, Attorney Richard Gottlieb provided me with consistent communications. Each correspondence was followed up with step by step conversations. Without being specific, my money was well spent, without any regrets and led me to the best possible outcomes. If you are looking for someone to represent your needs, look no further. Don’t hesitate.

— Client 05/18/2021

Before deciding to work with Richard, I met with 3 bankruptcy attorneys. Ultimately, I decided on working with Richard because of his firm's niche focus on bankruptcy exclusively and his experience in representing both sides in bankruptcy cases. I found Richard to be pleasant, respectful, and very transparent, whereas I felt that the other attorneys I met with were much more like salesmen more focused on volume than their clients' cases specifically. Overall, working with Richard was both informative and pleasant. The idea of bankruptcy was certainly daunting, but Richard's encyclopedic knowledge and extensive experience in bankruptcy law specifically is tremendous. Additionally, Richard's passion for the nuances of the bankruptcy process and his sense of humor is truly second to none. I cannot recommend Richard enough. Thanks to him, I was able to achieve all of the results I was hoping to achieve through Chap. 7 and can breathe easy for the first time in a very long time.

— Client 01/04/2021

Richard made this entire process extremely easy to understand. He was very patient and understanding regarding any questions, making this very stressful time in my life that much easier. I would highly recommend anyone considering such an avenue to speak to him as he will help you understand if it would make sense in your specific situation. Thank you Richard!

— Client 12/15/2020

Rick was an absolute godsend to me. Not only did he walk me through the ABC’s of how a Ch.13 case works, he genuinely cared that I understood everything each step of the way. I had a lot of questions and some doubts about even going through with the case, and Rick was honest about everything that I would encounter and made me feel comfortable. He always kept me updated as to what was going on and made sure any decisions to be made were my own. I would recommend Attorney Gottlieb to anyone looking to get their life back on track with the help of a real professional. Make the right move, call Rick Gottlieb!

— Client 12/15/2020

Atty. Gottlieb helped me at a time when my life was in a precarious state. I had contracted cancer and retired and needed help with managing my finances. Atty. Gottlieb was excellent at explaining my options and the law. I would recommend him without hesitation.

— Client 12/12/2020

I met Richard when my life and financial situation have pulled me down really bad. A previous lawyer had screwed up my bankruptcy really bad too. I was on my last breath. Richard saved me form brink of disaster, cleaned up my prior Attorney mess and charged me so little I couldn't believe it. This man is something of a legend. Yes I am a real client. . Troy

— Client 12/09/2020

With no prior knowledge of Boston attorneys, I contacted Mr Gottlieb for advice and guidance. He delivered in spades. He spent time with me on the phone giving me a precise plan of action. If you need help with a bankruptcy, I would highly recommend him.

— Client 10/22/2020

Counselor Gottlieb is fantastic! My wife and I had to file a bankruptcy because of medical debts that we incurred due to insurance complications with our daughters birth. We were in financial ruin and he single handedly helped us to turn everything around. We are so lucky to have found Mr. Gottlieb. He runs a solo practice (not a giant mill like most bankruptcy firms) where he gave us his undivided attention, as much time as we needed to understand the process and he personally helped us every step of the way. He always answered the phone or called us back almost immediately when we needed his help. He was honest, straightforward and he is the only reason that this process went so smoothly. I will be forever appreciative of all of the hard work he has done to help my family get back on track and start being able to save for retirement and our daughters future. I happily give him my highest recommendation and I would strongly urge anyone in the Boston Area to go see him first.

— Client 09/30/2020

Richard was a great help during a difficult time - he put me at ease and helped me get back on my feet. I would recommend Richard to others who find themselves in a most undesirable situation. Thank you, Richard!

— Client 09/29/2020

My wife and I hired Attorney Gottlieb to assist us with our bankruptcy process. We worked with a couple of attorney's within his practice to ultimately working with him directly until our discharge. There were a lot of turbulent times between my wife and I along the way and Attorney Gottlieb was able to persevere and see us thru those times and was successful in bringing our case to closure. (officially discharged on 8/10/2020). The bankruptcy process is not for the faint of heart and is not a process that should be done without representation. Attorney Gottleib is well versed in bankruptcy law and was able to assist us in navigating the process. It was a long road to discharge and we are very grateful to Attorney Gottlieb for his perseverance and professionalism throughout.

— Client 08/11/2020

Richard is very knowledgeable about bankruptcy and very helpful in answering questions. He also found a way for me to keep my car even when another lawyer said it wasn’t possible. He made a boring bankruptcy case a little easier on me with his sense of humor. Absolutely an amazing guy!

— Client 07/31/2020

So helpful in his knowledge of the law. He just gave me the confidence and the terminology to handle my situation, and very kind to boot. Thank you, Rick!

— Client 07/21/2020

I had to file Chapter 7. Richard answered all of my questions during the process and was even available to answer questions almost 2 years after my case was discharged. I would highly recommend.

— Client 06/17/2020

I unfortunately had to file for chapter 7. Richard made the process easy and un-intimidating. Though my case was pretty cut and dry he was always available to answer questions and responded quickly to my questions and emails.

— Client 01/10/2020

Thank you so much for your guidance and expertise during this process. Your professionalism certainly gave me comfort during what could have been a much more stressful time, and for that I am eternally greatful.

Thank you for my excellent legal representation. I am elated with the results!! Your unmatched experience and knowledge of the law bulldozed and castrated all attempts to prolong this case.

— Client 09/17/2019

Since hiring Mr. Gottlieb I have experienced nothing but good things. He says what he means and means what he says. He takes the time to explain what is going on in laymen terms so that you don't miss out on anything. He is patient, smart, knowledgeable, non judgmental and a fighter. From the beginning of our journey all I ever wanted was my home back and his hard work and determination has provided me my American dream. Thank you for all your hard work. May God continue to bless you in that that you do. He is a warrior for his people. I would recommend him to anyone anytime. If you ever need a secretary, I'm there.

— Client 05/23/2019

Richard walked me through my chapter 7 bankruptcy from start to finish. Made everything about the process clear and easy to understand. My mind was completely at ease going through this process with Richard. Couldnt be happier with how everything went and turned out with my chapter 7 bankruptcy. Richard was very easy to get in touch with and also explained everything in a simple way that I could understand. I would 100% recommend Richard to anyone considering filing for bankruptcy.

— Client 05/20/2019

Mr. Gottlieb was a exceptional lawyer. He was fair with his hourly rate and prompt getting back to me whenever I reached out to him.

— Client 05/12/2019

It's a wicked world where people try to take advantage of other people. I was about to ripped off by some dealership that started threatening me to return a car a legally signed and purchased from them because they made a mistake. Upon meeting attorney Richard he listened to me, told me what the law had to say as regards to that. Went on their asses and they remained humble. I will definitely recommend him to Everyone. Even if it's not his field of practice I guaranty you he will definitely listen to you and direct you on what next to do. He has my five star anytime.

— Client 04/24/2019

I needed a brief consultation about my bankruptcy options. Mr. Gottlieb was quite enthusiastic about meeting. He looked over my documentation, looked up a few case laws and made several phone calls to really understand the full breadth of the situation. I would absolutely use him in the future, or recommend him, for representation for bankruptcy.

— Client 04/17/2019

Mr. Gottlieb helped us get through one of the most difficult times in our lives. He is super efficient, knowledgable, helpful and responded to our every need in a timely fashion. We were able to get our discharge much faster than anticipated with no issues because of how thorough he is. I would highly recommend Mr. Gottlieb for all your needs. He is simply the best!

— Client 04/02/2019

The best bankruptcy attorney in Boston / MA! Don't look anywhere else! Richard N Gottlieb is what you need to go thru the bankruptcy process with ease and confidence. He is very smart and talented and sure will find "magic" solutions to your problems. (In fact, he has a magic wand on his desk). The not standard way of thinking and decades of experience makes Richard N Gottlieb #1 bankruptcy attorney. Just trust me, my case was among the hardest cases it could be according to all other lawyers I've called before I contacted Mr. Gottlieb. He rocks it with ease and makes it so simple for me and my wife! (International student with a pending green card, no job or work authorization and 200k in credit cards) Thanks again Mr. Richard! - SK & YK

— Client 03/20/2019

In the dark about what was going on with me not sure but I sent him a message and he was so helpful! I thank you so much for your information! I really appreciate you and the information I will definitely be sending this weather to you.

— Client 02/04/2019

Mr Richard Gottlieb evaluated my case in great detail and he was very thorough in explaining to me my options. He is every bit the professional that his website describes and I was very fortunate to partner with such an expert.

— Client 01/22/2019

Amazing job by Richard. I had to go through unfortunate process of filing chapter 7. I wasn’t sure who to reach out or how to start the process. I Consultated with several different lawyers and Richard was the most thorough of all the lawyers and asked the most questions so I knew he was the right one. His fees were a little more than the rest but we’ll worth it. He put me at ease responded very quickly to my questions and concerns, and was very understanding of my situation. The process couldn’t have concluded any better and I’m very happy with outcome.

— Client 11/17/2018

I found Rick by reading other reviews right here on Avoo, and now that I've had my own super-positive experience, I'm happy to "pay it forward" and share my experience as well. Bottom line: Rick is the real deal. Working with him has been awesome, and I'm glad to say that my Chapter 7 Bankruptcy has now been approved. Like many of you who read this, I turned to Avoo to search for a bankruptcy lawyer because I was too embarrassed and ashamed to ask anyone I actually knew for help. Having never done this before, I really wanted to make sure that I got someone who was reputable and who I knew I could trust. Thankfully (thanks to other reviews here on Avoo) I found Rick, and I can assure you he is exactly the man you want for the job. He's also refreshingly authentic. Quirky and funny (e.g. he keeps a "Magical Wand of Debt Abolishment" in a box on his desk), he may go so far as to tell you that he's a "pedant," but trust me: when you're facing bankruptcy, you WANT someone who is 100% by the book (and in fact has it so well memorized, that he can quote many parts of it back to you chapter-and-verse). I also recommend searching YouTube for some of his guitar reviews and song videos. Those also helped me to feel like I was going in with a real human-being (versus some "empty suit"). During my initial consultation with Rick, he let me do some of the talking and then started asking me questions. At the end, he said he was willing to take on my case, and explained that he charges a fixed fee (it's very reasonable--not sure I can put it here online, but it was a lot less than I'd feared it might be); understandably, it does have to be paid by personal check (and no: you can't put it on a credit card!). He then provided me with a very thick stack of forms that needed to be filled out. As I know how to edit PDFs, I asked if it was okay to fill out the forms on my computer and he said yes. That began the back-and-forth of me filling out the forms and him reviewing them until by the 5th Draft, we both felt like we had a 100% accurate picture of my financial situation that was ready to file. Shortly after the filing, we got the notification of the meeting of creditors scheduled for a month later, which went off without a hitch. And now, barely two months on (so roughly 4 months from start-to-finish), he just emailed me to let me know that the last thing that needed to be filed (proof that I've completed the financial management course), is in, and that my discharge is finally on its way. Definitely a relief, and I'm now very happy to add my postive review here, giving Rick my highest recommendation.

— Client 09/18/2018

Atty. Gottlieb came highly recommended by a close friend of mine and he did not disappoint. My case was not an easy one as dealing with student loans in a bankruptcy situation most say is a no win situation, however Atty. Gottlieb is verse on the bankruptcy laws and especially with regard to the laws governing private student loans as in my situation. For anyone who feels they are fighting an uphill financial battle and are thinking of going the route of a bankruptcy I recommend Atty. Richard Gottlieb. He has held my hand through this entire process, has kept me informed at every turn, he definitely deserves an A+ rating because he goes above and beyond for his clients

— Client 08/22/2018

I had the pleasure of consulting with Richard on an extremely complicated legal matter regarding bankruptcy, fraud and criminal charges. Richard had legal arguments for all of it. He understood the legal complexity of the case immediately and how to proceed. My advice to you is hire him. It will be a smart choice.

— Client 05/17/2018

I came across Mr. Gottlieb while seeking a bankruptcy attorney. His profile stood out far beyond the rest. Leaving a message through Avvo Mr. Gottlieb answered my query in a timely manner and set an appointment for a consultation. Mr. Gottlieb's confident, jovial and vast knowledge of the bankruptcy system put me at ease thus acknowledging and confirming that I had made the correct choice in legal representation. Mr. Gottlieb is a gem among bankruptcy attorneys.

— Client 05/14/2018

Bankruptcy is not an easy thing to go through. Chances are, like me, you have run into hardships and are in over your head. I went in to Richards office at one of the lowest points in my life. From the second I met him I knew things were going to be fine. He immediately put me at ease and explained the process. He made it simple to understand, told me exactly what I needed to do and we started the process. Richard answered every question, answered every phone call, guided me every step of the way. Why should you hire Richard? Because Richard is the guy who teaches other attorneys bankruptcy. That’s the guy you want to hire! If you are thinking of filing bankruptcy just go and see him. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain.

— Client 11/10/2017

Mr. Gottlieb has worked with us helping to resolve our financial issues via bankruptcy filings. We found Richard to be extremely helpful and thorough in managing the bankruptcy process. He was easy to work with and made all our requirements very clear. Never did we have difficulty reaching him and he was always there to provide advice and support each step of the way. We also found the costs associated with this activity to be very reasonable and never were there any additional charges from the upfront costs. We are now done with the bankruptcy process, with Mr. Gottlieb's help and guidance we are very pleased with the outcome. We would highly recommend him for those seeking financial help through bankruptcy proceedings.

To anyone who may be faced with the possibility of bankruptcy…. the Law Office of Richard Gottlieb would be an answer to your prayers. Paralyzed with fear as the auction date of our home was within 48 hours of happening. One phone call to them for an appointment and a visit to Richard’s office stopped the foreclosure within 24 hours. No one can prepare you for the stress, anxiety, shame of being in such a difficult position. Richard and his staff genuinely care about their clients enough to not be just a case number. They put our mind at ease and used a non-judgmental, personal approach to walk us through each step of the process, explaining that we weren’t alone. It was also helpful that Beth, Alex and Richard had an incredible amount of patience with the endless questions. The office always promptly returned phone calls to address any concerns or additional questions. The highest recommendation possible goes to Richard Gottlieb and his services. He is a smart, resourceful, compassionate person who takes incredible care of his clients. He was instrumental in not only saving our home from foreclosure, but also helped with a successful modification and he subsequently provided guidance with the sale of our home. He is a true icon in his field. -C.M. a Chapter 13 client*****

— Client 10/14/2017

Attorney Gottlieb has proven to be a highly compassionate, attentive, and knowledgeable individual. He responded to all questions in a prompt and timely manner. At any given time I would recommend his legal services .

— Client 09/27/2017

Found him on Avvo because we had hired an incompetent lawyer and we needed somebody who can really help us. Atty. Gottlieb accommodated us at the last minute as we needed him to save us and he did. He knows every detail of the process and doesn't miss anything. He is reliable, straight to the point and provides the best advice. I just wished that we had known about him much sooner as he could have really saved us a lot of headaches. But we are still glad we met him when we did! We are looking forward to the end of this process and are confident that Atty. Gottlieb will be there for us all the way.

— Client 09/09/2017

Richard has encyclopedic knowledge of the bankruptcy code and process. I cannot imagine having to navigate through it all without him and his staff. We were meticulously guided through the application and hearing stages and, when issues cropped up, they were efficiently and quickly addressed. Through it all, I always felt that Richard had my back. Although, I would never wish bankruptcy on anyone, if it becomes necessary, Richard is the best!

— Client 05/24/2017

When the taxing authorities became overwhelming and pushed us into an untenable position with our other creditors we sought Mr. Gottlieb's help. He provided clear input that we could understand and straightforward solutions with concrete outcomes based upon his experience. He was very thorough and organized, allowed us all the time we needed to ask questions in order to make proper judgments. Through his guidance he made a very difficult financial burden bearable, he was able to work with us on a level we could understand and feel comfortable. I believe his help has saved us a great deal of anguish and will leave us with money we thought we would lose. Also Mr Gottlieb was very up front regarding costs, never were we nickel and dimed for asking questions or needing help on related matters. Most importantly, he worked hard for "US" and was sincerely concerned for our welfare which is much appreciated. We are still in the process of CH 13, but feel we are in great hands.

— Client 02/28/2017

Attorney Gottlieb is a superb attorney!!! I had hired another attorney 3 years prior for my Bankruptcy case only to realize that, that attorney never finalized my case. In a pinch I went thru the yellow pages looking for a local attorney and I was blessed to have found Atty Gottlieb. He is result oriented, a superb communicator and gets the job done!!! I went from being in a total panic about getting shafted from my old attorney to feeling so at ease. I hope I'm never in the situation to need a bankruptcy attorney again, but I would certainly recommend him!!! He is a 5 star attorney who knows the business well!! Osman H.

We hired Richard to help with my parents bankruptcy. It was extremely emotional and stressful time. He help us through the process as well as to explain everything to 2 elderly individuals who had worked their whole lives and we very upset it had come to this. It is a complicated case he he continues to answer all the questions and guide us.

If you ever need a Bankruptcy Lawyer, look no further...Richard Gottlieb is the absolute BEST! I was facing a Foreclosure in only a few days...I said a prayer and was led to Mr. Gottlieb, a true blessing! He calmly assured me that he could save my home and began explaining his/our course of action. He was not only incredibly smart and extremely knowledgeable regarding the laws of bankruptcy and foreclosure but, he was really humorous which I found very comforting. I'm happy to state that he did save my home and I have no doubt he will continue to succeed on my behalf. A definite 10 star attorney! : )

— Client 12/05/2016

From the beginning I felt comfortable in bringing my situation with lawyer Richard because he made my husband and I know we were in good hands and cared just as much as we did in getting our situation resolved. We had been having issues with our mortgage and my husband and I had gone to other lawyers where nothing was resolved and we were so relieved with being under Richard's wings because he fought hard for our case and took action into doing as much as possible for us. Our case has now successfully been closed and it wouldn't of been possible without Richard's determination and assistance. We appreciate Richards hard work and thank him always. I would highly recommend his services to any family and friends Thank you Richard. -Sonia & Victor

— Client 11/18/2016

His knowledge and expertise, along with his passion for helping his clients achieve the best desired paths compares to no other lawyer I have ever worked with. He is a force of strength and his steadfast power to never give up makes him a once in a lifetime man of Steel.

— Client 11/04/2016

Atty Gottlieb is one of the best bankruptcy attorneys in the marketplace. He's knowledgable and went our of his way to provide professional services for me. The economic recession and unrelenting loan modification rejections drove me into bankruptcy. Through the able guidance of Atty Gottlieb and his team, my house was SAVED, mortgage rate and monthly payment cut in HALF through an approved loan modification. That is service I needed and very much appreciated.

— Client 10/29/2016

Our incredibly positive experience with Rick is the reason why I took time out of my day to review him and tell others about him. Please know that it is not hyperbole to say that Rick's incredibly sharp mind, encyclopedic knowledge, eye for detail, and extensive years of experience are the only reasons why we won our case. We were fighting a bitter dispute with an unreasonable party who also hired a super-aggressive lawyer working against us. Rick was able to win two key decisions in our favor after lengthy and involved arguments in court -- this only happened because of incredibly thorough research and prep work on his part, and his creative application in argument in front of our judge. He is additionally remarkably gifted at both finding solutions to business problems outside litigation, and also at bringing the big guns to battles that can't be avoided. Truly he is a rare find and our business is still here, operating, and got a second chance only because we found and hired him. Kuddos to him and his work.

Richard was so detailed and informative, he explained everything that was needed from me and the whole bankruptcy process clearly and insight-fully. He contacted me with any little detail that was updated or modified. He helped put my mind at ease with his extensive knowledge and uplifting dialogue during our meetings. He was always available for any questions I had as the process moved forward, and asking me questions that I hadn't even considered. He is honest and forthcoming, he truly cared and pursued the best possible outcome for me.

After I got laid off, my wifes income was just not enough to cover all of our living expenses and the mortgage, so we fell way behind on our mortgage (8 months). We were facing foreclosure, and had an aggressive attorney representing our lender who was pushing foreclosure quickly. After meeting with Richard, he developed a great Chapter 13 bankruptcy for us with an affordable payment plan based upon our income. The bankruptcy stopped the foreclosure and quashed the annoying lawyer. Richard was smart, easy to speak to, and his knowledge of bankruptcy and state law put us at ease during a very stressful and difficult time. We highly recommend Richard and his office to help you with your bankruptcy or foreclosure issues

Richard's brilliant legal advice and hard-work helped me save my home from a foreclosure. When my husband was laid off, we could not afford our mortgage payments and fell behind significantly. Richard, with the help of his great staff Alex and Danielle, helped me stop the foreclosure process with a Bankruptcy case. The case provided me with protection and an affordable payment plan for my mortgage. Rick's Office also performed a loan modification, negotiated with the bank, and cute my monthly mortgage payments almost in half - effectively saving my home. Our family is forever in debt to his firm, and he saved the roof over our heads. I HIGHLY recommend Rick and his office - they are friendly and can help.

Mr. Gottlieb is a very good bankruptcy attorney who knows his stuff. He made sure that my children and I knew what was happening every step of the way.

I happened to have had the pleasure of being referred to Atty. Gottlieb by chance. However soon after talking and with him I knew he was the lawyer for me. Tenacious and seems to be very caring. So far so good. I have even referred my neighbor to him. I feel with Atty. Gottlieb on my side I have a chance to stay in my home.
