A Testimonial by a Consumer Defense Unit Client

When I first contacted the Consumer Defense Unit in 2024, I was being sued for a debt of about $5,000 and felt completely overwhelmed.

As someone living on a low income, I knew there was no way I could afford to pay the full amount being demanded. I was anxious, confused about the legal process, and worried about what would happen if I didn’t respond correctly or on time.

From the very beginning, the Consumer Defense Unit stepped in and took on my case for full representation, which made an immediate difference in my life. For the first time, I felt like I had someone on my side who truly understood the system and was willing to advocate for me. The attorney, Noha Gabra, took the time to carefully review my case, explain my rights, and walk me through all my options in a way that was easy to understand. They explained the potential risk and outcomes but also reassured me that they were prepared to fight the case all the way through if necessary. That gave me a sense of relief and confidence during a very stressful time.

Alma always made sure I was informed about any updates with my case. They were responsive to my calls and messages and provided clear instructions on what I needed to do.

Thanks to their dedication and strong advocacy, they were able to negotiate a settlement that I could actually afford. I ended up settling the case for $1,000, and the case was dismissed with prejudice. The outcome lifted a financial and emotional burden off my shoulders.

I am incredibly grateful to the Consumer Defense Unit for their professionalism, compassion, and commitment to helping clients like me. They not only helped me resolve my case but also gave me peace of mind. I would highly recommend their service to anyone facing a similar situation.
