Michael is very knowledgeable and straight forward. He answered questions I did not ask, which was very comforting to me, since prior coming to him, I had sought the legal counsel of a highly advertised law firm in Tampa. What I received was impersonal treatment and cookie-cutter answers. I was surprised to be provided detailed answers to questions I did not ask, and realized that this attorney is the right attorney. I highly recommend him to anyone seeking legal counsel in his field.
Mr. Barnett is an excellent attorney - he provided support when my case became complicated and I was nervous. He is extremely educated and knowledgeable in the field of bankruptcy law. Mr. Barnett is also highly responsive and often times responded on weekends. I highly recommend him and his firm to anyone in financial trouble.
My Husband and I had a great experience with using this law firm/ michael Barnett was very helpful, and helped us keep our home. He was there for any questions, concerns, and made sure he took care of us. I would suggest if you need help and want to work on starting over. He will fight for you through the whole process .
