Mr. Petroff and his firm saved our home from foreclosure. We were in a very bad place and they worked out an agreement with the bank to save us and got us a payment we could afford.

I am very pleased with the attentiveness to my case. This is my third attorney. What makes litigation easier is not only their knowledge, which Petroff Amshen undoubtedly has, but just as important is working with you financially. I would HIGHLY recommend Petroff & Amshen.

I've been having serious identity theft and fraud issues for 10 months, and couldn't find anyone who'd take my case, till a coworker referred me here. Within 2 months, not only did they completely take care of my problems… You're in great hands with Petroff Amshen.
