Showing 1 - 1 of 1 review | Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

Posted by anonymous | April 30, 2020 | Hired Attorney | Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

A Total Class Act

I looked at lawyers for years to file my Chapter 7. My search was OVER when I found Ms Buffington. Her patience and knowledge was beyond 5 stars actually. And her prices were flat and very affordable. I would've paid more! If she has availability, YOU"D BETTER TAKE IT!!!

Karen Gaston

Bankruptcy and debt lawyer | May 05

Relationship: Worked for lawyer

"I endorse this lawyer. Attorney Buffington and I were classmates in law school. I worked at her law office representing clients in residential real estate matters. Prior to opening her own law office, Attorney Buffington worked as an attorney for a well known personal bankruptcy law firm in Chicago, IL. Attorney Buffington has represented numerous clients in personal bankruptcy matters over the years. While she primarily handles personal bankruptcy matters, she is experienced in representing clients in divorce, probate and residential real estate matters. I highly recommend Attorney Buffington. She is a very experienced, reliable, knowledgeable, and highly competent attorney."

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.
