“We went to DRLC and from start to finish they were our rock. They made everything seem so easy and go so smoothly.”

Last year after my husband lost his job and we found ourselves in a bit of a financial mess. We went to DRLC and from start to finish they were our rock. They made everything seem so easy and go so smoothly. From the ladies in the office to the lawyers in the back, a special shout out to Daniel Weidecker. He was there for us, went to bat for us when there was a complication and the end result was handled exactly as they said. So if you find yourself needing to get out of debt don't hesitate and call DRLC, they are amazing.

“Even better, he seems to honestly care about the law he practices, and the people that these laws affect.”

I can only give a review of the half-hour I spent with Mr. Colwell, but it was a half-hour very well spent. He seems like a stand-up guy with a lot of integrity. I went into his office fully expecting to be filing bankruptcy, but instead, he talked me out of it. I was prepared to defend a hard sell, and I didn't get that at all, it was a relaxed conversation, like two people chatting over a beer. It's obvious he knows what he's talking about and is able to put the law into language that even a layperson like me can understand. Even better, he seems to honestly care about the law he practices, and the people that these laws affect. While his services weren't right for my situation, I will definitely be recommending him to anyone who might end up needing a bankruptcy lawyer.

“John C. Colwell makes every effort to get the help you need, with no catch! No hidden fees, costs, or surprises.”

It it is a tremendous relief, there is such a business as Debt Relief Legal Clinic!! I learned about DRLC from a close friend who had to file chapter 7 some years ago. This place has 30 Years of Bankruptcy Experience and demonstrates a highly proficient and professional approach to personal debt matters. John C. Colwell makes every effort to get the help you need, with no catch! No hidden fees, costs, or surprises. He is very honest and upfront from your initial consultation, about the likelihood of the outcome of your case, and the process- which is simple and very straightforward. His fees are EXTREMELY reasonable considering the professional and efficient service provided- you can even make payments for the fees (worth every penny to walk away debt free!). As part of the process, you will learn, you are required to take a couple of online classes. The classes are designed to educate you, to manage your debt moving forward, and remaining debt-free...avoiding the trouble you got yourself into in the first place. The fact DRLC has a practice that not only eliminates or consolidates your debt (depending on your case), but guides you to to remain debt-free, shows the sign of a company with a true vested interest in your success of becoming (and staying) debt-free! You could not ask for anything more from a firm of this type. I HIGHLY recommend anyone feeling the pains or stress of being in debt to (at the very least), consider a consultation with DRLC. You will forever be grateful for a service of this type, that navigates you through a (seemingly) overwhelming process.

“I can't say enough about how wonderful the staff and the attorneys are to work with through the process.”

I want to recommend the Debt Relief Clinic for their wonderful service and knowledge, which you need when you're at a tough time in your life. I can't say enough about how wonderful the staff and the attorneys are to work with through the process. They give wonderful advice and always answer any questions very quickly. I really recommend this law firm.

“Mr. Colwell goes the extra mile for his clients! I really appreciated his time and extra time for a zoom meeting during covid-19 pandemic to answer my additional questions prior to discharge!”

Mr. John Colwell and his team helped me get through chapter 7 without a glitch! I'm so thankful for the support I received over the past year. I had lots of life changes this past year and I knew what I needed to do financially and who to call. I met Mr. Colwell in 2002 when I needed support and a chapter 7. He also helped my husband with his chapter 13. I was so happy he was still in downtown SD all these years later and available to meet with me when I was ready. Mr. Colwell goes the extra mile for his clients! I really appreciated his time and extra time for a zoom mtg. during covid-19 pandemic to answer my additional questions prior to discharge! Financial Freedom is an awesome feeling! I'm looking forward to what comes next in life!! Won't be making the same mistakes. Live and learn! I recommend it! Thank you so much! Stay safe!
