5 Stars!!

Mr. Pagano along with the other staff at the firm are extremely professional and courteous. He listens to you and answers every question you may have. He is very straight forward and down to business but very down to Earth at the same time. I was very nervous and kind of embarrassed when consulting w...ith him about a Chapter 7 but he was very understanding and walked me through the entire process. Front desk staff was always pleasant when I called or went in for appointments. You will not be disappointed with this firm.

Very professional, efficient and knowledgable

I went to Mr. Pagano when I needed to file bankruptcy. I was stressed and unsure of what to do, and mostly I was scared not knowing what to expect. After leaving just my first appointment with Mr. Pagano, I felt confident in my decision and was no longer afraid of the process. He made a very scary si...tuation go very smooth and answered all of my questions (even if that meant a midnight email on the weekend). The paralegal that works in the office is equally awesome. I would recommend Mr. Pagano to anyone, who not only is facing bankruptcy but anything else that Mr. Pagano is knowledgeable in.

Bankruptcy

He handled the joint bankruptcy for my husband and myself and we couldn't be more grateful. Everything was easy to understand and he made sure to be specific with what he needed from us. This made it easier to gather everything for our case. We've used two attorneys from Pagano and Marks for two very... separate cases and both times their services proved worth the expense. And they aren't overly priced attorneys trying to drain you of your income, they are fair and we love them for it. If we ever need an attorney again, we will definitely be coming back to Pagano and Marks and we would recommend them to everyone.

Highly Recommended

I have used Keith Pagano on a couple different occasions. He processed my divorce for me many years ago. Recently he took care of my closing on a new home I purchased as well as processed the closing on the one I sold. Everything was very simple, seamless and FAST! Every time I have used Keith, b...oth he and his staff are very helpful. They have always been very fast and responsive. On other occasions I have had other legal questions and Keith is always, personally, available to answer my questions. I would highly recommend him to anyone and I always pass his name along to friends and family!

Puts you as ease and gets the job done right!

My husband and I found ourselves in the unfortunate situation of having to file for bankruptcy. We were a little embarassed but went to see Keith Pagano because a friend had recommended him. He immediately put us at ease and we felt extremely comfortable with him. He is easy to talk to, and explain...s things in a way that you can understand. He is extremely professional, but also feels like a friend that will take good care of you. My initial feelings about him proved correct as we went through the entire process. The day of court was nerve wracking for me, Keith calmed my nerves and prepared me for what the trustee might ask (just incase). I watched the trustee hammer into people asking questions that wasn't in the paperwork and neither them (or their lawyer) were prepared to answer. The trustee seemed disgusted with most of the the other lawyers paperwork , so much so, that he continued many of their cases for another day so they would be more prepared. BUT when it was our time, I couldn't have been more thankful that Keith was my lawyer. Keith prepared all of my paperwork just as the trustee liked. Keith's attention to detail and carefulness made all the differece to the trustee and he had a different demeanor with me than those that had come before us. It was as different as night and day because of Keith's thoroughness. I left the court extremely thankful that Keith was our lawyer, and I know that a bunch of the people in that courtroom were wishing he was their lawyer too!!
