The best

We had hired a bankruptcy attorney from an online source, & ended up firing the attorney. Wife's union directed us to Mr. Warr. He was very thorough, patient, informative. We had a difficult Trustee for our bankruptcy, but Mr. Warr expertly walked the line between our concerns & the Trustee's need... for additional information & documentation. Mr. Warr calmed me when I got upset at the process, politely & professionally. He gave us the facts, didn't sugarcoat anything. I do not know if he takes clients outside the unions he represents, but if does I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM!!! Thank you, Mr. Warr, for helping us achieve our goals.

Relationship: Worked for lawyer

"Jim Warr is an exceptional bankruptcy lawyer. I had the privilege to work with him for more than four years. He can recall the Bankruptcy Code in incredible detail, down to the code sections. He is a fierce advocate for his clients and his meticulous understanding of the law serves them well. Finally, his fees are extremely low for a lawyer of his caliber. He will get it done right the first time."
