Chapter 13 Payments/ Nationstar Mortgage

I was totally in despair arriving at the office today as a result of non-clarity of Trustee payments versus Mortgage payments in which I believe there is an overpayment. Attorney Patrick Semrad. This gentleman was so patient with me. He showed me compassion and he carefully listened to me. He interve...ned on my behalf, he called my mortgage company, reviewed the Trustee payment history and we discussed the process of a resolution.

An excellent advocate!

Pat has always been one of the most knowledgeable and responsive attorneys I have had the pleasure of working with. He advocates strongly on behalf of his client, and does so in a respectful and civil manner. He makes sure to cross all of his T's and dot all of his I's, and is someone I gladly refe...r business to whenever I am able.

Highly recommend Attorney Semrad

I have nothing but good things to say about my interaction with Mr. Semrad and his colleagues. I approached the firm recently about some financial hardships I have been having with several investment related properties. My initial thought was to file and be released from these burdens. However, af...ter consultation, Mr. Semrad suggested several other options that would be more economically beneficial to me, and I was able to avoid having to file. In essence, Mr. Semrad could have easily filed on my behalf and collected a larger fee, but chose the ethical route that was best for his client, for which I'll always be grateful.

Came Through

Very knowledgeable and respectful. I met with 3 other lawyers before from other companies. Mr. Semrad was by far the best.

A great lawyer

Mr. Semrad met with me in my darkest hour. I met with a lot of attorneys before. Mr. Semrad was the only one who actually listened and seemed to care. I listened to his advice and now my family still has a home.

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.
