Praises from Pro Bono Clients

I am elderly and and was dealing with damages to my home due to past hurricanes. I was unable to meet the financial burden of the repairs and my day to day living expenses so I had no other option but to file for bankruptcy. I would like to express my gratitude to all that make up the team at LEGAL AID. Today we had the final hearing at bankruptcy court which was successful, we won our case. In less than three weeks my case was ready for court. I am very grateful, from the bottom of my heart for JESSICA at PSB who guided me through the process, eased my concerns and referred me to attorney JULIA KEFALINOS. I have been treated with love, compassion and a level of professionalism as if I was a regular paying client. Even the judge acknowledged that my case was pro bono and thanked attorney KEFALINOS in front of all those present stating “I am very proud of you”. Thank you very much and above all many blessings.

“Put Something Back is amazing and you are doing a wonderful service for the community! I can’t thank you enough for taking my mortgage foreclosure case! My attorney WES COLGAN was amazing, easy to talk to and knows how to handle himself well! I can’t say enough good things about him.” “I am very satisfied with your work and the assistance you gave me.  My lawyer YOLANDE HENRY of LEGAL AID SOCIETY really did an excellent job!  I can’t believe this service is free for low income people in Miami like me.” September 2017

“Thank you to my attorney NICOLE GRIMAL HELMSTETTER for handling my pro bono bankruptcy case.  As a disabled senior citizen, I had a difficult issue and was not sure how to proceed. Thank you PUT SOMETHING BACK for finding her for me.  She is an angel.” 

A client of STEVE PAULSON wrote:  “Thanks to my attorney and everyone else at Dade Legal Aid in the Domestic Violence department for your great assistance and the kindness afforded to me during these most difficult and challenging times.”

“CANDIS TRUSY was an angel.  She went above and beyond.  Thank you for everything!” 

“Thank you very much, everything she did was excellent.  Attorney PATRICIA REDMOND helped me with my bankruptcy quickly.  She treated me like one of her paying clients.  I got really first class treatment.  For that, I am forever grateful. God bless you all.” 

“My bankruptcy attorney, DOROTHY NEGRIN changed my life!  She was so organized! Thank you Dade Legal Aid and Put Something Back for finding me the best attorney to help me get a fresh start.  If I can ever repay you I will. Dade Legal Aid  changed my life!  Thank you!”

A client of MARK BROWN wrote:  “Thank you all for your help; may God bless all of you.” 

“I highly recommend this program,” wrote a client of ROBERT MEYER. “He helped save my home from foreclosure.  I will never forget him. Thank you so much. I would like to thank your program for your the help.  I have two children  and was served  foreclosure notice and my husband left our home.  I went to  government agencies and tried working  with my mortgage company but was left frustrated, confused and scared.  Mr. Meyer  and his associates really cared about my case.  He  took the time to explain the process and my options .  All of his co workers are nice and professional.  They continue  to help me and keep me updated  and return my calls  if I have any questions.  I would highly  recommend  Mr. Meyer and his firm.”
