Excellent Lawyer

My husband and I were laid off from our jobs in the same year. This was the same year the recession in the U.S. began making new jobs nearly impossible to find. As we were unable to keep up with our bills we realized that we would have to declare bankruptcy. This was not an easy decision to make but ...we had no other choice. We chose Nina Parker because her practice is in the town where we live. It proved to be an extremely lucky choice. We were treated with complete respect by Ms Parker and her entire staff. This was something we badly needed. But even more important than that we were expertly led and counseled throgh every difficult step of declaring bankruptcy. It's been over six years since we began with the bankruptcy and Ms Parker and her staff are still there to help us as we begin anew with the bankruptcy now behind us. I highly recommend Nina Parker if you considering bankruptcy. You truly can't find a better lawyer!

Honest, trustworthy, tough, smart and unsurpassed integrity.

Nina is unlike any lawyer with whom I've ever worked. I am a business owner of a SME. I have dealt with lawyers for 30+ years regarding business, real estate, taxes, contracts and non-profits. Nina taught me more about financial instruments than any lawyer over the past 30 years in NYC. Nina i...s more than just brilliant and experienced in the law around judgments, liens and bankruptcy; she is principled and incorruptible so don't try to BS her. She has only your best interest top of mind and will always give you alternative tools to best address one's situation. Her reputation with her peers makes her a standout and she is probably the most respected lawyer I've ever witnessed by her colleagues and clients. She is more than fair in her fees and promotes self-help so as to keep overall costs as low as possible. Additionally, she and her staff are supportive, kind and available for far too many ridiculous hours. If you are facing hard financial decisions, personal or business, this is the lawyer for you.

Excellent attorney--Would retain again without hesitation

I have found Nina and her practice to be highly supportive and responsive to my needs. She provided helpful guidance to help me understand and seamlessly navigate the process to resolve my problem and work to restore my credit. Nina and her colleagues are respectful, knowledgeable, responsive to ti...me-sensitive concerns, and have kept me informed of necessary steps along the way. Declaring bankruptcy can be a stressful and embarrassing life event--nobody ever wants to be in such a situation. For that reason, it is all the more important to carefully select legal representation that is able to provide effective and high-quality service when you need them the most. I am quite happy I chose Parker and Associates and enthusiastically recommend their services without hesitation. Money well spent.
