Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

Darin, Louis and Amy all make up a wonderful legal group that made a difficult time in my life easy. They were professional, ethical and most of all compassionate to all my needs. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

Outstanding

My husband and I were referred by another attorney whom we used for an auto accident. Darin and his staff were understanding, sensitive and most importantly accessible to us during a difficult time. After a few years of my husband being out of work we decided we had to file bankruptcy since we could... no longer keep up. We filed chapter 13 and Darin guided us through all stages of the process. Anytime we had questions either he or one of his staff answered us promptly and professionally. I was never made to feel like my concerns were invalid or nonsense. During the time of the bankruptcy we also did a loan modification of our mortgage. Darin and his team assisted us with this as well. Every step of the way he was there for us. He never sugarcoated anything, he gave us the real deal and we couldn't have appreciated it more. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who has to make this difficult decision of filing bankruptcy. Many thanks to him and his staff.

Disappointed

I would discourage home buyers from engaging in business with this law firm. My husband and I hired Fabian Pinto, Darin Pinto and their Paralegal James to assist us in the purchase of two separate homes. During the first transaction significant information was kept from us (e.g. The home we were pu...tting an offer in was in Attorney Review before we submitted our offer). Our offer was not accepted by this seller but the competing buyer has now become a neighbor. Our offer was responsible for driving their home purchase price up, without our knowledge. They participated in the purchase of our current home and the sale of our previous home. Both attorneys were very hard to reach over the phone. When we called their office we were told that they were busy in a closing and unable to return our phone calls or that they were out of town. When the days came to close on our two homes to our amazement neither attorney attended EITHER closing. We were told that they are too busy to attend closings. We had a relatively smooth closing of the home we purchased. In contrast the closing of the home we sold was a disaster. One of the contractual agreements of the sale of our home was that we, the seller, would not address any issues other than structural or operational. The paralegal, have a time conflict with the closing of the house we were selling. He stayed long enough to complete what he considered necessary paperwork. However, after he left the purchaser refused to continue until we, the seller, paid $400 to remove a sandbox. Because of our pack of representation this issue gained momentum. At one point after yelling at us Fabian Pinto refused to accept our phone calls because in our frustration we used an expletive. In the end we were stuck with the $400 bill because we had no representation at our closing. As you can imagine the bill arrived on time with no adjustment for their lack of service.

Fantastic Lawyer that looks out for his clients!

Darin helped navigate the short sale of my home with great success! I had a credit union that was extremely difficult to deal with and he was very knowledgeable and trustworthy. He kept me informed at every stage of the process and he was very patient in answering any questions or concerns that I had.... He has an awesome team and they all work hard for you. I highly recommend Darin D. Pinto!

A Top Rate Lawyer

All the lawyer jokes aside, Darin Pinto is one of the most honest, forthright, and trustworthy lawyers I have ever met. I would rank Darin in the top 1% of lawyers. He is organized, smart, and a really nice person. He made my bankruptcy much easier than I imagined, especially as it was a very diffi...cult thing to face. His assistant is also incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. If you want to get on the other side of your financial worries, Darin will help you do it and for a reasonable price.
