My practice mirrors the variety of cases that come before the Bankruptcy Court. I represent debtors, Trustees, creditors, and other parties in interest under all of the various bankruptcy chapters. I enjoy assisting regular people and their businesses in resolving financial problems that might otherwise be debilitating for them and their families. I handle bankruptcy matters from the most routine to the very complex, often receiving referrals from other bankruptcy attorneys, and my reputation is for providing the highest quality legal services at reasonable, competitive rates.
Outside of my work life, I enjoy running and reading and spending time with my family.

It was really good experience to me.
I was lucky to get help from Steve and his team, especially Anne, when my family was struggling financially. From initial consultation all the way through discharge, my bankruptcy case went really through step by step without any issue. It couldn't be better than this, seriously. When you think about...

Professional, Knowledgeable, (and Kind)
Filing for bankruptcy can be daunting (and a bit depressing), but Steve thoroughly explained the process to me in a way that made everything okay! Both he and his assistant were clear, concise, understanding of my situation, and available to address any questions or concerns that I had. Not that I ...

Mr Ramsdell is well informed, honest, kind, and capable. It was an honor and a privilege to have him as my attorney. I highly recommend him.

BEST BANKRUPTCY LAWYER
Steven is extremely thorough and professional. From the beginning, he simplified the process and allowed me to ask as many questions as I had. Bankruptcy is not an easy thing to go through, it's important to hire someone who knows exactly how to navigate the process and make it painless as possible...
"Steve is my firm's go-to bankruptcy lawyer when we have a client in need of protection. His expertise and experience is unmatched."
"Steve mentored me as I was a young bankruptcy attorney practicing in Virginia. In fact, it was at Steve's suggestion that I open my own practice when my wife and I decided to move to Texas. Without the invaluable experience I gained working with and for Steve, I do not believe I would have been in a position to do so. I value Steve's in-depth knowledge of all things bankruptcy and would recommend him to anyone."
"I endorse Steven Ramsdell. He is an outstanding attorney. I have referred many clients to him and we have worked on multiple complex tax bankruptcy cases together. I highly recommend Attorney Ramsdell."
