What do customers say?

Moss & Associates wins strong praise for compassionate staff and outcomes that protect homes and cars, with Amanda specifically mentioned for clear guidance. Yet significant complaints pile up around opaque fees, hour-long phone waits, slow case progression, and near-total unavailability once cases are underway, leaving clients feeling abandoned.

Recent shift: Several one- and two-star reviews from the past year suggest service consistency declined or fell short of opening promises around communication and timeliness.

Praised for
  • professional and compassionate staff
  • clear explanation of complex processes
  • successful case outcomes
  • responsive communication (Amanda noted)
  • caring approach to clients
Watch-outs
  • hidden or unexplained fees
  • poor phone communication and wait times
  • slow filing timelines
  • limited attorney availability
  • unresponsive to follow-up inquiries

Best for: Clients prioritizing empathetic counsel and case outcomes over day-to-day communication speed.
Think twice if: You need frequent attorney contact or fast responses; cases may stall for months with minimal communication.

What stands out?

  • compassionate, personalized service
  • delivers home and vehicle protection in bankruptcy
  • experienced staff who simplify legal language
  • upfront low retainer option ($100)

Worth knowing

  • Amanda identified as staff member praised for patient guidance
  • Chapter 7 and 13 filings mentioned as core services
  • Cases took three months to file in one instance
  • Phone hold times reported at 90+ minutes
  • Concerns raised that firm does not pursue creditor enforcement post-filing
