I made a review in 2017 i will again make a review now 2022. Thank you Jackie for everything that you do for me. Forever thankful. I have paid everything already. On one spring day back in 2017 i was in a lot of stress, dealing with phone calls from the bank. A friend of mine told me to go to David Sklar’s office (its close to my apartment) as she is also paying hers( in another firm). So i did and i was glad i did. Thank you and God speed!

(From K.M)After a great deal of thought, that actually went on far too long and only created more hardship, I finally called David Sklar and Associates. They immediately set up a mutual time for an in person appointment. I had the greatest fortune to meet with Jerry Janiec!From the moment I met Jerry, I felt at ease and the weight I had been bearing began to lift.Jerry is very personable with a happy, kind, patient and gentle nature. He is very knowledgeable and extremely thorough in all of the information and options that were presented. Jerry was very supportive in the option I chose.I read other reviews on David Sklar and Associates and I whole heartedly agree. If you are struggling and it seems never ending, make the call to these people. I should have much, much sooner.Thank you so very much Jerry Janiec. You truly are a blessing.Sincerely, Karen M.

My mother introduced me to the company and I signed up and I spoke to Christine Sylver ... Let me tell you .... Christine Sylver is the best licensed debt counselor ever. She helped me from when we starting talking up until now and she's a great individual. I would recommend her and this company to anybody. I can't wait to have me debt cleared and start my life again.
