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.

Hired Attorney Walter A. Metzen

As a satisfied client I can truly attest that Attorney Walter Metzen is one of the best attorneys. Not only was he successful with my bankruptcy case, but he was very thorough and attentive. It’s been a year since my case closed and to date, I can still depend on Attorney Metzen to answer my calls and assist me with any questions or concerns. That speaks volumes about not only his professionalism, but also his compassion for helping others. His success with bankruptcy lifted a heavy load off my shoulders. I can’t thank him enough, but the least I could do was write this review expressing to others the excellent work he does!

Best Bankruptcy Attorney Ever!!! Walter made our bankruptcy experience more manageable, hassle free and headache free. I reached out to a few law firms before I came across Walter's website and there is no doubt in my mind I chose the right guy. Walter has a massive amount of information about the bankruptcy process on his website and when you speak with him you can tell he has experience and knows what he is doing. He has a great personality and is very easy to talk to. All of these things help put our minds at ease during a difficult time and complex situation. Thank you Walter Sincerely Terrell and Okema

Walter is the best of the best in terms of dealing with bankruptcy cases. I had a pretty complicated case, converted from chap 13 to chap 7, and his knowledge, guidance and compassion was crucial in getting me through this painful process. He made it SO much less stressful and I’m incredibly grateful for everything. Would recommend nobody except Walter to anyone going through this difficult process.

Walter Metzen represented my wife & I wonderfully. Bankruptcy was a last resort that neither of us wanted to utilize. My wife and I are not happy or proud that we went through the process, but we hope to learn from this experience. We are grateful for Walter's guidance and compassion during this experience.

Excellent attorney I hired over 10 years ago. I would hire him again today. Responsive when I requested a copy of a document recently and didn’t charge me. Kind and friendly.

Walter Metzen of Metzen & Associates made my Chapter 7 bankruptcy filing practically effortless on my part while administering my case in a professional and expeditious manner. When I first contacted the Detroit office Walter took my call, explained the process and answered all my questions. He was professional, knowledgeable, patient and respectful throughout our conversation. By the end of the discussion I knew Metzen & Associates would manage my case while maintaining the highest standards. During the entire process, from start to finish, Walter responded readily to each of my emails and calls and was always thorough in his explanations. Even months after my bankruptcy was discharged Walter continued to answer questions I had that helped me resolve other concerns. I highly recommend Walter Metzen and the Law Offices of Metzen & Associates. They are a firm with integrity. I cannot thank them enough for the support and assistance they provided me during a difficult time of my life.
