Very pleased
Mr. McCormick was very thorough and explained things. He made me feel very comfortable during a rather stressful time in my life. I was totally impressed. He handled the remote meetings great. I'm pretty sure I was the first client during the Covid-19. I was very relaxed speaking to him. He was professional yet down to earth. I would recommend Christoper McCormick to anyone in need for a Bankruptcy issue or any other legal issue that he handles.

Made the bankruptcy process painless
I was referred to Attorney Mccormick by a personal friend and he was wonderful from the moment I met him. He explained everything clearly in our first meeting and made the entire bankruptcy process smooth and painless. I didn't feel like i was being judged (which was a genuine concern when I decided to file bankruptcy) and he was very personable, kind and helpful throughout the entire process. He was available through email or phone and always responded promptly to my questions or concerns. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to file bankruptcy.

Excellent counsel and legal direction for Chapter 13
Chris did an excellent job advising my wife and I on our Chapter 13 petition, and expertly guided us through the next 5 years. He never judged, even when we experienced some difficulty about halfway through due to an unexpected run of family medical costs. We recently completed our 13 plan and we now owe Chris a debt of gratitude for his years of advice and legal representation on our behalf.

Excellent service
I was referred to Chris and I was 100 percent happy with the outcome/service. He is very knowledgeable, especially with everything you need to know or complete for your case. His prices were reasonable as well. My case took almost a year or so, but he was very patient and made sure everything was done. He was available if I had any questions for him and he was available to answer by phone or by email in a timely manner. I would definitely recommend him as an attorney!

Attorney McCormick made the process as painless as possible.
Chris McCormick handled my personal bankruptcy and I was pleased to see how experienced he is in the process. There is a lot of paperwork to complete, but Chris was there to help, through the entire process. He is available by email even at off times, and got back to me quickly when I had questions. I would definitively recommend him.

Chapter 7 Bankruptcy (Chris McCormick)
My experience with Attorney Chris McCormick was an excellent one. He is extremely well informed, thorough, organized, and communicative. He made the emotional decision to file for bankruptcy less scary for me and provided professional guidance throughout the entire process. Chris made himself available to me by both e-mail and telephone whenever I needed his advice and he was never condescending or demeaning and treated me with utmost respect. He worked diligently to prepare my financial documents and made every effort to ensure that I completely understood the steps involved. At my discharge hearing, he had every piece of documentation organized and represented me with confidence. I am honored to have worked with Chris and would recommend him to anyone.
