Nothing substitutes for experience

Saw several lawyers, but found Mr. Schwab with decades of experience found a simple way to navigate my tricky bankruptcy, where others seemed overwhelmed. Everything went smoothly just as he said it would.

Endorse William

Lisa Doran

Bankruptcy and debt lawyer | Dec 09

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I have known and worked with Bill in a number of Bankruptcy cases over the years: sometimes as opposing counsel, sometimes working together on the same side, and other times in his role as Chapter 7 Bankruptcy Trustee. Bill is a very capable and knowledgeable bankruptcy attorney and has been involved in complex business cases where he has served as operating and liquidating trustee. He is aggressive in looking for assets of the estate to benefit creditors, but is also practical in finding a resolution. I endorse him as a bankruptcy attorney."

Bankruptcy and debt lawyer | Oct 20

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. I have known Attorney Schwab for over thirty years. We have worked together on numerous matters (probably over a hundred). He is diligent and always watches out for client interests first. A person could not have a better advocate than Mr. Schwab.. He is thought of so highly by the Federal Court that he has been named a Trustee in Bankruptcy. That is a greater endorsement than I could ever provide."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
