Caring, Compassionate and Highly Competent !

I must have engaged Carolyn for a year, or more, before I stopped dithering and began the actual bankruptcy process. She was unfailingly kind, informative and patient (!) until I said to start the ball rolling. Throughout the entire process, she was magnificent...answering all e-mails, texts and .../ or phone calls promptly, and always with useful and correct information or suggestions. Her empathy and compassion made a highly stressful five years much more bearable than they would otherwise have been. At all times, she was highly professional. Just before I could get my discharge, I found it necessary to engage her services for a tangentially-related issue. Once again, she guided me through that somewhat confusing process clearly and competently. I cannot recommend Carolyn Krohn highly enough. If she practiced other kinds of law, I would have no hesitation to employ her services in any legal matter.

Absolutely the best bankruptcy attorney in the Annapolis area!

I highly recommend Carolyn Krohn to anyone in need of a bankruptcy attorney. We knew Carolyn before we found ourselves in need of her expert services. We are very pleased with the services her firm provided. She is personable, knowledgeable, kind-hearted and caring. The breadth and depth of her know...ledge of the bankruptcy process is incredible. Carolyn made the entire process easy to understand and made a very difficult time in our lives more bearable. She made us feel comfortable during an uncomfortable situation. She always responded to my emails right away and was so patient when I needed her to explain certain areas of the process more in depth. She took the time to prepare us for the questions that might arise during the hearing. When we were in front of the trustee, we were a little nervous, but confident Carolyn had done all that needed to be done. The trustee had very few questions for us. Carolyn Krohn is a a brilliant attorney and an exception professional. We absolutely love her!

Exceptional Lawyer and Legal Services

It will be hard to share all of the good and positive experiences I had with Carolyn with a character limit of only 4000, but I will certainly try. :-) Carolyn is an intelligent, no-nonsense, diligent, careful and honest lawyer. She tells you like it is, but she does it in a way that is very res...pectful to you. Know that is for YOUR benefit, as her client, that she pulls no punches. She keeps you advised every step of the way, is almost always available to answer questions, and is particularly fast to respond to emails. If you leave a voicemail, she WILL call you back, unlike some lawyers with whom I have dealt in the past. I never felt out of the loop on anything, and she kept me completely aware of the steps being taken and why, and those to be taken (and why.) She meticulously prepares and walks you through the meeting with your Bankruptcy Trustee. She keeps you apprised of her communications with the Trustee's Office as well. Carolyn is extraordinarily professional in her interactions with the Trustee and the Bankruptcy Court, and she obviously takes her position as an Officer of the Court very seriously. Carolyn works tirelessly to obtain the best outcome for you and your case. On a personal note, she also assuages fears, calms nerves, and reassures when she can, but she will never misrepresent or "color-coat" anything to, or misguide you, at any time. Of that, you can be sure. She truly is an advocate for you. Carolyn's fees are extremely reasonable. Quite frankly, I would have paid twice the amount I paid for the legal services she provided! I recommend Carolyn Krohn without a single hesitation or caveat. You just cannot say that about so many lawyers who are out there advertising, vying for, and tripping over each other to pull you in as their client. That's just not Carolyn's style.

Amazing

I hired Carolyn to handle my bankruptcy case. I went to her during a low point in my life. No one wants to file bankruptcy. Carolyn was very understanding and answered all of my questions. She truly cared about my situation and was very knowledgeable of the laws. The entire process was seamless and w...ent exactly as she said it would. Carolyn made a painful experience bearable.

Awesome Attorney!

Carolyn handled a complicated chapter 13 bankruptcy case for me recently and I was very pleased with not only her thorough knowledge of bankruptcy law but also her guidance and the compassionate manor in which she handled it. Lets face it - bankruptcy is no picnic and everyone has a story but I have ...to say that she really took a personal interest which is really helpful when life is kicking you in the behind. Carolyn took detailed notes during the initial meeting but also followed up on every possible detail so as not to leave any loose ends. She was also readily available and quick to respond during the entire process. I'm giving her an A+ rating! Thanks Carolyn for all of your help and support during this challenging period.

"I know Carolyn because at my old firm, she was the lawyer to whom we always referred clients. I sent her one of my clients who had a failed debt workout, and she handled the Chapter 13 for that client very well. She knows a great deal about bankruptcy law."
