Makes this process so easy

I contacted Peter initially only wanting information on the bankruptcy process and the setbacks associated with it. After he explained everything to me in detail I decided to file. Since I filed it feels as though a huge weight has been lifted off of my shoulders. He contacts me regularly and expl...ains everything to me every step of the way. He is very knowledgeable about the process and what I should expect. I have already started to see my credit score going up and that is one of the most important things to me now.

Makes time for his clients

My hours are crazy because I'm a trucker but Mr. Kim met me early in the morning before office hours to get my case filed. He takes time to explain everything I was concerned about and makes himself available whenever I do call. I just started about a month ago but everything is going smoothly.

Posted by Jess | January 29, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Chapter 13 Bankruptcy

Very affordable and great attorney

Mr. Kim met me on short notice due to my car being repossessed. I was low on cash but Mr Kim was willing to work with me on the cost so I could get my case filed as soon as possible so I could get my car back. I think in less then2 days he got the car back for me. I've been in this chp13 bankruptcy f...or about 2months now and everything is going great.

Saved my home from foreclosure

I had my home set for foreclosure and I didn't know what to do. I spoke to Mr. Kim the day before my home was set for foreclosure and because I didn't get out of work until 8pm, he met me after hours to file my case. Mr. Kim spent over 2 hours reviewing the different options I had and what the bankru...ptcy will provide for me. I decided that chp 13 bankruptcy was best for me since I was able to save my home. I appreciate the time Mr. Kim took to help my family and I.

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.
