“My family would say I was born to argue and I will argue for you. I will fight when your need is at its greatest — when your creditors are knocking on the door and when you are trying to get disability because you can’t work.”

I recently sought the services of R. Flay Cabiness Bankruptcy Attorney after facing significant financial hardships. Transitioning to post-military life, taking on caregiving responsibilities, and managing a reduced income left me feeling overwhelmed and without options. After exhausting every other avenue, I turned to R. Flay Cabiness; it was the best decision I could have made.
The team was compassionate, professional, and incredibly supportive from the beginning. I want to mention Autumn, their paralegal, who went above and beyond to make the process as smooth and stress-free as possible. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and timely communication were invaluable. She patiently answered all my questions, provided clear explanations, and ensured I felt informed and reassured throughout the process.
Thanks to Autumn and the rest of the team's exceptional guidance, I’m now on the path to financial recovery and have a renewed sense of hope. I highly recommend R. Flay Cabiness Bankruptcy Attorney for their compassionate, knowledgeable, and client-centered approach to financial legal services.
My wife and I are extremely grateful for Mr. Flay and his office staff for all they did to help my wife with her disability case. I tried numerous lawyers to help me over the last 4 years, but all of them treated me just like a number and not a person. I could never get them to return calls or help me with all the issues you have when you file a disability claim. But this office is different!!! Their secret weapon is Mrs. Melanie. She is on IT!!!! She calls you back. She answers all your questions. She walks you thru stuff you don't understand. She goes over and beyond to make you feel SEEEN and HEARD when you are in a difficult situation. So, if you ever need help, try this office FIRST and you will be surprised at the Kind and Professional staff you have working for YOU!!!

I first called R Flay Cabiness II PC because i was drowning with bills and couldn't get ahead. I picked this firm over all the other firms in the area because their reputation is awesome. What I liked most about R Flay Cabiness II PC was they simplified things so i could understand it all properly. In the end, i filed chapter 13 because it's what was best for me.
