Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

Brenna was truly amazing and I don’t think i could have gone with a better attorney for my Chapter 7 bankruptcy. From consultation to discharge the entire process was seamless. Her team is pleasant and efficient. I felt very supported, and would definitely come back for any other legal needs. Highly ...highly recommend!!!! This bankruptcy changed my life for the better, and I’m so grateful to Brenna and her team for making that possible.

Wonderful Lawyer Wonderful Firm

I hired this attorney to represent me in Chapter 13 Bankruptcy to save my home. I had two prior Chapter 13 cases that were dismissed. This time around was so different than the last two cases that didn't work because Brenna and her paralegal Kirsten informed me every step of the way what to do and... made sure, I understood the process. The Trustee also said at the zoom meeting I'm in good hands because I have an excellent lawyer and they are so right. My house is saved, and I am paying half if not less for my car payment through her guidance and actually saving money for the first time in over 3 years. There are no words to express my gratitude to her and this firm. She is truly a miracle worker and will never make you feel bad for asking a question and won't give up on you, judge you or make you feel bad about Bankruptcy. She is very informative about the law and how the Bankruptcy Code is there to give you a fresh start and is very misunderstood law. She also said my credit will increase once I file Chapter 13 and she was right. I feel like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders and when the phone rings I am no longer scared. I want to thank this firm from the bottom of my heart for their help!!!

Bankruptcy

When I contacted Brenna it was with the idea that I wanted bankruptcy protection and a plan for repayment. She talked to me kindly without judgment and showed me the futility of that plan. Throughout the entire process Brenna and Kirsten were kind and considerate and efficient. They talked me through... each step of the process including when I had to meet with the Judge. The process itself was organized and efficient. The relief when it is done is amazing. I cannot say enough about Brenna and Kirsten and would definitely recommend hiring theer practice if faced with this problem.
