Five Lakes Law Group Reviews

One of the standout aspects of Five Lakes Law Group is their commitment to transparent communication. Throughout my interactions, their representatives were knowledgeable and eager to answer my questions. The onboarding process was straightforward, with no hidden fees or surprises. I appreciated the regular updates and prompt responses to my inquiries, which made me feel supported and informed.

Updated on 11/02/2025: So far, so good. Everything is the way I was told it would be. It does take time. Be patient. I just wish there was more time trying to notify creditors that haven't responded to correspondence. Other than that, Five Lakes Law is easily contacted, friendly to work with, and has always answered any questions with kindness and professionalism.

I had no problem with 5 Lakes the first two years until an aggressive credit card company refused to settle and take me to court. I had to pay extra every paycheck because they couldn’t do what they said they could do. I signed up for debt relief and the lawyer I talked to in the beginning said they work with these credit card companies all the time and never had an issue. 5 Lakes had to “dip” into my escrow to pay the aggressive credit card company off with no negotiation and I had to pay extra to keep up my escrow balance for the two I’m currently paying off. There is another credit card I have that’s being aggressive and 5 lakes contacted me to pay yet, extra again, because they can’t get it negotiated. I refused because I can’t afford it. They declined offer and are negotiating yet again. I signed up for one amount every paycheck, that’s all I’m paying. 5 lakes is getting paid to negotiate and that’s what they need to do. I’m too far in to stop now.

BE CAREFUL!!! My total debt between 2 credit cards was less than $20,000. By the time Five Lakes negotiated settlements, with the additional late fees and penalties the banks charged, I am being charged more than the original debt: EXAMPLE. Original debt. $3999.29. Creditor balance by the time it was negotiated: $5073.37. Negotiated offer amount. $2526.69. Five Lakes Fee. $1,079.81. Paying it off early does not lower the Five Lakes Fee either! I was told someone would review the fees and had a phone appointment which was never received. I was also told that if I paid in extra $, this could be applied to the outstanding accounts - wrong info! By the time I am finished, I will have saved a whopping $392.79 plus the credit hit plus all the hassle!

I am still very nervous doing this. I have never done this before. I’m nervous about stopping all payments and how my credit score will even get worse. However talking to the nice young women made me relax a little bit. I started thinking how much worse can it get. My situation before signing up was very stressful and that was only getting worse and I felt I was sinking into a deep hole. But you guys assured me this will work and get better soon. I am putting my trust in you. I hope I am not let down. I will do what I said keeping up with the biweekly payments and I hope you keep your word too. Thank you for your help. My fingers are crossed. For now yes I would recommend you to family and friends. After I am done with the program I hope I can feel the same and write a better review.

You guys were great. You helped me with all my questions and concerns and assured me that everything would be good and get better over time and that was a big worry of mine so thank you for that awesome work.

I will say this regarding Five Lakes: they are legit & accredited & they will make you feel hopeful, they are so professional, they broke all aspects of my situation down. They leave no stone unturned, folks. I'm serious, if you need help with debts, especially in this economy, I believe Five Lakes is the best debt consolidation group of professionals you can trust.

So far everything is great. I am looking forward to everything being paid off. Five Lakes have given me hope that there is an end in sight. They’ve made a recent resolution that has lowered one bill by thousands of dollars. I’m very thankful for Five Lakes Law Group.

Very welcoming, able to put me at ease from the moment I said hello on the phone. Was very thorough about the company, the process, the end results. I know they will do the right thing for me and help me get out of debt as quickly as possible.

They do great job with communicating and keeping you up to date. They will answer any questions you have and are very professional. I am glad I found them. They explained things really well and help you every step of the way.
