Theodore Lyons Araujo

Very helpful and gave me advice that gave me huge relief for my situation. Definitely give him a call if your in debt and are considering bankruptcy.

Mr. Araujo did a fantastic job on my Chapter 13. He laid out the rules, dispelled several mistaken notions I had about bankruptcy, and put together a plan that worked for me and was acceptable for the court and trustee. 5 years later and I'm done, without any issues. Thanks again!

I met with Ted and ask him to do the impossible with my finances. I was in extreme distress with no positive end in sight. He immediately went to work and started to analyze my situation taking everything into account. He gathered information from me about my finances, asked many questions and at the end of all of it put my best case forward. He was friendly, courteous, and very precise with every detail about my claim and to my utmost amazement he hit a grand slam out of the park for me. This lawyer is a most hire lawyer. He is very passionate about what he does and helping his clients. He will go the extra mile for you and put a win in your column.

Ted was awesome, let me tell you why. I truly was not looking forward to filing bankruptcy. I was embarrassed to even walk in the office. I felt like I was admitting that, at almost 40 years old, I didn't know how to manage my finances and I was taking the easy way out. I had just gotten divorced and much, if not all, of my debt had been racked up by my now ex-wife. I was nervous. I didn't want to do it. I had great credit history my whole life up until shortly before my divorce. Then, I spoke with Ted. Very cool guy, knows what he's doing, very direct and to-the-point, funny, and had a way to make me relax. He explained every detail of bankruptcy to me in a way that I could easily understand and, believe me, there is a lot that I didn't know. By the end of my consultation with Ted, I felt completely comfortable with making the decision to file, and I'm happy that I did. Ted makes the filing process quick and easy. He basically has a checklist of the documents he needs you to provide to him. Once you're able to give him all of the required credit card statements, bank statements, medical bills, etc., he plugs away at it. So, the faster you get him the documents, the faster he can start your filing. You need to go through a class or two online that give you some good information about bankruptcy and managing your finances in the future. Before you know it, Ted has you set up with a date for the hearing. I went to my hearing, they ask a few questions, and then you walk out without any more stress on your shoulders. No more worries about how you're going to catch up on past due bills. And, as Ted explains very well, it's not because you took the easy way out...it's because you used your rights as an American citizen...rights that were given to you by our nation's forefathers who knew full well even then that people would need protection in this type of situation. Ted was awesome and I mean that sincerely. He answered all of my questions, thoroughly, even when I asked them a second time. My advice would be to make sure you take good notes, write down all of the advice he gives you, and write down all of the answers he gives you to your questions. I could say to just do what he tells you to do almost without question because he's been doing this for a while and he knows what you want and how you need to do it. If anyone were to ask me who I'd recommend for a bankruptcy attorney, there is no doubt...I would recomment Ted Araujo over and over and over again. Plus, his office is pretty sweet. Check him out. Believe me, you'll be glad you did.

Great guy. Professional and precise. Know his job inside and out. Always quick to answer questions. Give him your facts and he will do his best in a timely manner. Thanks Ted !
