      Fairmax has taken roughly ******* dollars from me, and never correctly filed my paperwork for my bankruptcy. This all started in October of22 when I first filed. The office was/is so badly ran that they screwed up my documents, this should have been a 3 month process, come march of 23 they tell me I have to refile and pay another ****** filing fee, I did, and then the process starts all over again, I showed up to court when I was suppose to, and my lawyer didnt even have all my documents I sent over, which postponed it again, and then again, and then in Nov of 23 they tell me everything was set, and that I should receive my paper in the mail. So I wait, and wait a little more, come ******* of 24 I contact them to let them know that I hadnt received any documents, other than one from the trustee saying they waived my filing fee (odd because I never got that back). Lo and behold no bankruptcy was completed and filed as dismissed, now sits on my credit report as a derogatory ******* I cant rent a house because of it, in ******** a lot of landlords run credit, and see this, and it looks bad, plus there is 2 dismissed bankruptcys. It took my score down. I have opened a dispute with trans union to have it removed. When I asked for them to just refund me my money, ******** says we will offer you a 300 dollar refund, all the while her kid is in the background screaming. Real professional. I feel taken advantage of. I was trying to do better, but I should have just counted on myself, and not this law firm.

      I started this process a few months back. After my first court date my plan needed a to be adjusted per the trustee and resubmitted. This firm had everything needed to resubmit my case. I find out there is a court date scheduled on July 18th from but I don't need to attend. I call the following day to get an update, no one is available to talk. I was told I'd receive an email with an update, no email. The following Tuesday (today) I receive an email stating my auto payments have been canceled. I call and as usual no one is available to talk. At this point I called the trustees office. I then find out that my case was dismissed due to my attorney not resubmitting an updated plan. This is downright unacceptable. I paid upfront for a service for someone not to do their job properly and there is no excuse for that. This firm is unprofessional and does a poor job at helping anyone. I'm a mom of 6 going through a separation which is why I had to do this in the first place. I just donated money to someone that didn't need it. Can I at lease get a letter of acknowledgment so I can write this off at tax time? Pathetic....
