About Derek
Biography
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.

Genuine and Prudent Professional
I hired Derek based on his quick response to my inquiry. He and his law partner, Mark Toronjo, know bankruptcy inside and out. Both gentleman gave my questions and concern diligent and thorough attention. This has been money well spent.

Great law firm
Derek was great in explaining all my options regarding my bankruptcy and was available to answer any questions. Easy to talk to and made even the legal mumbo jumbo clear for us lay folks! He and Mark are great guys!
