Thank you Miranda

Miranda was very helpful and friendly. She explained everything that is happening and what’s going to happen and made very useful suggestions. She explained everything so well we were able to understand the whole situation. It was not as bad as we were expecting.

I learned a lot of things I didn't know about how to manage money, budgeting, and the use of credit. I can now say that I will be extra careful with my family's finances!
Thank you for the valuable information! I will use it forever!

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

Too much time

The 45 minute time allotment doesn’t make sense. I finished in 29 minutes and had to go back over some of the chapters just to meet the 45 minute requirement.

Awesome Terri!!

I found myself in quite the predicament, with a lawsuit that I wasn’t going to win and too much credit debt……. The debt was stretching my monthly income to the max and then some. Terri was so wonderful in my session with her, I felt completely at ease afterwards. Thank you Terri, from the bottom of my heart ♥️
