Mark Albert Herder

I've been through two Chapter 7 bankruptcies now. The first one I did all the paperwork through an online kit, about $700 total. Don't do that unless your situation is fairly simple and you can't get the money for a lawyer. It turned out to be a huge disaster. The second one, I hired Mark Herder, about $780.00 total. I had friends go through bankruptcies and make huge and costly mistakes, and I then found out about Mark's office from a friend at church. During my research, I learned that most bankruptcy attorneys are like used car salesmen and treat their customers like suckers. Don't be a sucker. Based upon my urgent situation, Mark called me back even before visiting his office, and his office is on the ball. At court, every other lawyer who came to the Trustee meeting had made mistakes in their paperwork and got called out on it. Mark's office has simple pricing and no hidden or extra costs. He does not nickel-and-dime you from a laundry list of "possible" additional charges, such as credit reports or the counseling classes. I received my official discharge last year, am very pleased with the process and am receiving numerous offers to reestablish my credit.

This office saved my house from the court auction by quickly filing bankruptcy for me. I had become sick and unable to pay my mortgage. Mark and Lindsay both represented me at the bankruptcy hearing and I could not be more thankful for what they have done for me. Even though I am super busy, the office worked with my schedule. Mark has even called me on the weekend to confirm important information and court times.

I hired Mark Herder for my bankruptcy last Monday, and he filed my Chapter 13 on Friday. Very quick and efficient -- very much to the point. He and his staff do not mess around with upsell and other unnecessary garbage that I encountered with another bankruptcy attorney in Columbus. I discovered him through a friend, who also had an excellent experience with Mark. He also did not try to gouge me with crazy upfront fees. Thank you again!
