Honest, Upfront, Experienced
My wife and I had an excellent experience with Mr. Kingsbury handling our bankruptcy case. The initial consultation was very easy and informative. We had all of our initial questions answered in less than 2 hours and knew what to expect and when we needed to have everything together to progress the c...
Thanks for such a nice and lengthy review. Yes, there are a lot of traps for the unwary out there. Inexperienced lawyers can cost folks a lot of money if they don't spot the issues. I'm glad you were happy with me handling your case. Appreciate you and your wife as clients.

Definitely Recommend
Was recommended by another lawyer. David helped us file Ch. 7 and 13 bankruptcy. We sat in court waiting to meet with the trustee and saw first hand how other people and lawyers seemed unprepared and seem to struggle with the trustee's question's. Our meeting with the trustee went smooth which I a...
Thank you Jeff. I get a lot of people referred over from other attorneys...referrals are a big part of my business. Being prepared and having the paperwork done right is something I learned very early in my practice was of primary importance. People pay me good money to represent then and doing a good job for them is #1 on my list.

Helped me through a difficult time
I was apprehensive about beginning and completing the process of filing for bankruptcy. From the first consultation until the final meeting with the trustee and the weeks following, David and Cathy made me feel like I was in good hands. David is intelligent, professional and understanding and I wou...
Thanks Rich for the very nice review. I appreciate having you as a client. It all went well...just as it should.

A true professional
David and his team are very thorough. They collected every last bit of information from me, which seemed quite daunting as I prepared to file. When we went to my meeting of creditors, it became very clear why they have developed their process. I watched several other cases before mine that stumbled t...
Hi John....yes. I'm really thorough for a reason as you say. I've been doing bankruptcy cases for close to 30 years now and I know what they are going to need. Best to be prepared. Frankly, 99% of how these cases go really depend on how good a job was done in putting the petition together and knowing what the trustee is going to require. If it is done right...smooth sailing. Thanks for being a client and I'm glad that you were happy with my representing you.

Bankruptcy - Chapter 7
I hired Dave for both Business and Personal Chapter 7 bankruptcy processing. He did not hand me off to someone else in his office which made more confident that the process would get down correctly. Which he was well prepared for both hearings and got me through them with what I believe the best way ...
Thanks Jim. You had some interesting aspects to your cases with the business angles involved. Glad that you were happy with the outcome.
