About Derek

Better Service & Better Prices! Call For A FREE Consultation!

I was born and raised in North Dakota and eventually moved to Texas to obtain my law degree and pursue my legal career.  I immediately fell in love with the culture, weather, and, most importantly, cuisine of Texas.  When I'm not helping clients solve their financial issues, I'm spending time with my kids, biking, playing golf, and watching sports with family/friends.

      Mr Prosser is an amazing attorney. He talks directly to the client making explanations easy to understand. He is easy to contact and returns messages in a reasonable time to the client. I am so pleased with his service. Affordable fees.

      Excellent attorney

      Posted by

      I highly recommend Derek Prosser for any bankruptcy needs. He responds quickly to all calls and e mails. His knowledge and empathy was outstanding. He went over and above handling my case, answering any questions (which I had a lot of) and keeping me informed on all issues.

      I am so glad I found Derek to help me through this difficult time. Bankruptcy was not easy choice for me. However, there was no judgment, only a personable and friendly Attorney there to lead me through this. I have to look at this as a new beginning, and having Derek here to encourage me is, well, a God send. I absolutely recommend Derek Prosser and thank him so very much!

      The Greatest

      Posted by

      It was the easiest major decision I have had to make. When contemplating the need of an attorney I found Derek and our relationship began from the first minute he returned my call. And he returned my call within a matter of minutes, not hours or days. He described in detail the process that was needed to accomplish my needs. He then sent me emails detailing the things he had relayed via telephone. He was so good to answer any questions I had and assisted me with any difficulties I had concerning sharing documents through the internet. I am not very technical so was nervous about using the emails, uploading documents, etc. He made it very simple and I was able to accomplish what was needed. My case went smoothly due to Derek's expertise and easy directions. He is gold in his handling legal matters. Thank you so much Derek, my life is much less complicated now.

      Made it as painless as possible

      Posted by

      From the consult to completion, Derek and his team made this process extremely easy to understand and get through as painlessly as possible. No matter how many questions I asked, they were patient, knowledgeable, and stuck with me...even thru all the covid delays! I also recommended a friend and she is thoroughly satisfied as well.

      Derek contacted me right away and walked me through the bankruptcy process. He easily answered my questions and whenever I needed to get in touch with him he called me right away. I felt very comfortable with him and the way he conducted business. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a bankruptcy lawyer. He's the BEST!

      Outstanding help during a difficult time

      Posted by

      We appreciate all the help we received from Derek during a difficult time in our life with the loss of a job due to covid. Because of covid we could not meet in person which makes things a little more difficult for everyone involved but they walked us thru each step until completion. I would highly recommend using this law firm.

      Mary Smith, Bankruptcy and debt Attorney on Jun 25, 2020
      Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

      I have known Derek for years and have sought his advice for my own clients when considering bankruptcy or dealing with various bankruptcy issues that are outside my expertise. He has always been knowledgeable and helpful. I am confident in referring clients to him when considering bankruptcy as I know he will give them solid, honest advice.

      William Harber, Bankruptcy and debt Attorney on Apr 16, 2020
      Relationship: Worked together on matter

      I hold attorney Derek Prosser in the very highest esteem. Whenever I have a client with a bankruptcy issue, I always refer him to Derek. Derek will immediately get in touch with the person and work tirelessly on the matter until he receives a favorable result. I have heard nothing but praise whenever I refer a client to Derek. I would highly recommend Derek to anyone needing help on bankruptcy issues.

      Mary Prosser, Bankruptcy and debt Attorney on Apr 15, 2020
      Relationship: Family member

      Derek is my husband, and I have watched him grow his practice over the last six years. During that time, he has put extensive time and effort into his work, and his focus is always on what is best for his clients. During Derek's 12.5 years as an attorney, he has always sought ways to efficiently and ethically serve his clients. He puts in time after hours and on the weekends to devote to his work, and has developed a professional reputation as a bankruptcy attorney in Dallas.

      Donald Hood, Chapter 7 bankruptcy Attorney on Aug 16, 2017
      Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

      Derek Prosser is a fine attorney. Since we compete for the same clients, this statement should be given great weight. I certainly endorse Derek as the 2nd best bankruptcy attorney in the DFW Metroplex . . . Ha! Don Hood
