Posted by Julie | December 02, 2012 | Chapter 13 Bankruptcy

Helpful, Knowledgeable and thorough

When I was looking for an attorney, to help me with my financial situation (which is in a shambles), I did talk with a number of different firms. I chose Jay Perez, as he was the only attorney that talked about all the different options I could take. Once I decided on Chapter 13 bankruptcy, he made... sure that not only the required paperwork was done, but I clearly understood what actions I need to take on my end and what paperwork I was signing. I am always informed of the progress of my case, upcoming meetings, and all documentation required. I was very nervous, and embarrassed, about my current financial situation. Jay was very helpful in walking through the entrire process with me, taking the time and never rushing when I had appointments with him, and discussing all all possible scenarios that may impact my filing - in terms I understood. I am very happy I hired Jay to assist me with my case. He reduced my stress and anxiety immediately after my first appointment with him. If I have a question about my case, or the bankruptcy process, there is always someone there to answer my questions. I highly reccommend Jay Perez as an attorney.

Relationship: Supervised lawyer

"I have a lot of respect and admiration for Jay and I strongly recommend him. He is intelligent, efficient, practical, creative, and I've rarely seen an attorney grasp complex bankruptcy issues as quickly and thoroughly as Jay in my 18 years of practice. Jay has already handled more bankruptcy cases in his short legal career than most lawyers I know who have practiced for 30 years. Most importantly, Jay is a wonderful person who cares for his clients and it shows in his work."
