Two recent reviews praise quick responses and helpful support, though detail is limited. The firm has operated since 1996 and is noted as a pleasure to work with, but individual reviewer experience beyond responsiveness and competence is not extensively documented here.

Over 20 reviews paint a consistent picture: Partin Whitaker and his team answer calls, walk clients step-by-step through bankruptcies and foreclosures, and handle cases with genuine care. One stark exception: a client claims the firm sat on a neglect case for two years before abruptly closing and retiring, though the business appears still active. The strong majority find the firm worth the cost and attentive.
