Competent, caring and professional team

Bankruptcy is overwhelming and stressful. Larissa and her staff are understanding, very knowledgeable, and respectful. Larissa answers any questions in a timely manner with explanations that are clear.

Highly Recommend Larissa Z. Waltman

Filing for bankruptcy is a difficult decision and a stressful process. Larissa's knowledge of the law and attention to detail resulted in the best possible outcome in my case. Through it all, she held my proverbial hand. I will be forever grateful for her expertise and guidance. She has my highest re...commendation.

Posted by Tasga | February 22, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

Very compassionate

Larrisa is the best attorney I have spoken to. I am currently going through a Chapter 7 after a very long 3 years of trying to hold my head above water. I went through a horrific divorce and realize I have tried my hardest to no avail. If you are looking for a compassionate, knowledgeable and caring ...attorney I recommend Waltman Law.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
