I began my career as a third grade teacher, took time off to start a family, and entered law school at the age of 38. After graduating from one of the top 100 tier
law schools, Georgia State University College of Law, I practiced in a large consumer practice until I was approached by the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) to join the Legal Division of the Atlanta District Office. I worked with lenders, borrowers, the Dept. of Justice, and other lawyers for 7 years, primarily in the bankruptcy arena. I was appointed as a Special Assistant U.S. Attorney while employed by the SBA.
In 1999 I had an opportunity to try real estate and condo management and live on the ocean at beautiful Manasota Key, Florida. I then sat for the Florida Bar, getting my license to practice in Florida in May, 2002. I opened a solo practice, primarily in the area of Consumer Bankruptcy and Estate Planning.
When I am not working with clients, I enjoy playing golf and spending time with my four grandchildren.

Almost makes it too easy
We used Kathyrn to file bankruptcy. Not only were her prices lower than another attorney we spoke to, but she made everything so easy. My 74 year old mother was a nervous wreck but Kathryn took the time to explain everything to her and helped her walk through the steps necessary. I would recommend...

Wonderful, trustworthy, honest & helpful
Kathryn Bergeron has been a life saver! We knew little to nothing regarding bankruptcy. After meeting with her, the nerves / butterflies were calmed greatly.
