A huge thank you!
On 2017, I was going through a tough time with a foreclosure on a property I had in Florida. I was on the brink of losing the property completely. I just moved to Massachusetts. I didn't know of any bankruptcy attorneys. No one, couldn't refer me to any. Living in Worcester. I had to browse through...

Robert Kovacs Jr. is the lawyer you want
Although no one wants to go through a bankruptcy, having the right attorney makes the situation much easier. I had met with two other lawyers before my consultation with Robert and knew very early in the meeting that he was the lawyer I needed. Robert is extremely knowledgeable, he immediately put me...

Can't Thank Robert Enough For His Phenomenal Work
I will forever be grateful for how Robert Kovacs was able to change the lives of my parents who had let their finances spiral out of control and had pretty much given up because everything had become so unmanageable. We reached out to Robert a week before their house was about to be foreclosed on wit...

Attorney Kovacs was incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and supportive throughout my case. He made me feel comfortable at every step of the process, and was always available to answer my questions. I highly recommend him as a lawyer.

"I endorse this lawyer. This lawyers contributions to this site are invaluable. I happily endorse this lawyers work, ability and charity to those asking for advice. Further, I like to endorse good lawyers, because I find the AVVO rating system to be dishonest and corrupt. Frequently, disgruntled litigants on the opposing side (not your clients) will bash a lawyer on this site, pretending to be "your" client. When this situation is brought to AVVO attention, Avvo refuses to do anything to investigate and remove the false, slanderous "client" reviews. AVVO is a mean petty internet blog site trying to make money off of lawyers, and does not care if the public receives truthful information."
"I endorse this lawyer."
"Great bankruptcy lawyer, full recommendation."

"I endorse Attorney Kovacs. I have read his answers on Avvo and find them to be insightful and a valuable resource to members of the Avvo community."
