We maintain close communication with our clients by being readily available in person (walk-in times everyday), by telephone, by email and fax. We are not the largest bankruptcy law firm in Michigan, nor do we want to be. What we do offer our clients is a dedicated, experienced staff that will provide you with attentive, personalized service. We do not believe that bigger is necessarily better. We strive to know the law and know the Bankruptcy Court system. We study the Bankruptcy Code, the Bankruptcy rules and the Local Bankruptcy Rules for the Eastern District of Michigan. We know the Bankruptcy Judges and the Bankruptcy Trustees in our District. We know the other local bankruptcy attorneys and we can guide you through any bankruptcy proceeding. We stay current in the latest developments in all our areas of practice and frequently attend seminars, bankruptcy conferences and workshops to maintain the highest level of bankruptcy law counseling as possible.

At The Law Offices of Walter Metzen & Associates, the attorney you speak with is the attorney who will go to Bankruptcy Court with you. We will not send an attorney fresh out of law school to represent you. You will not be treated as one more case in a huge bankruptcy factory...but you will be given personal attention and good old fashioned legal services...where you can talk to your attorney and paralegal when you need to. We have a reputation in the Metro Detroit area for providing our clients with superior service at the lowest possible cost, keeping in mind the client's needs for honest, and experienced legal knowledge and service, while maintaining the lowest fees possible. At Michigan Bankruptcy Lawyers PLLC, our philosophy is to provide the client with honest advice, whether bankruptcy is appropriate for the client or not, and to stand up for our client's best interests.

Walter Metzen was very professional. I truly appreciated everything he did for me! He was very organized, excellent at explaining the process, and most of all very responsive in getting back to me if I had questions or concerns. Lastly, he was very assuring. This process was nerve racking but Walter made it seem less daunting.
