I have an existing case that I was having issues with due to my current attorney which I discussed with Tom. He gave me some very valuable information and actually offered to reach out to my current attorney to see if he could help smooth things over. I'm happy to report that his phone call to my attorney worked and my case appears to be getting handled correctly again.
My experience with Tom is that he is one of the few attorneys out there willing to go above and beyond to help his clients. He is knowledgeable, friendly, and very easy to talk to. If I ever find myself in a similar legal need again, Tom will definitely be my first phone call.
My husband and I got hard times 4 years ago resulting in both of us loosing our jobs. With car payments and medical bills adding up, we tried our best to pay everything off but we kept sinking farther into a hole that we just cannot get out of. Earlier this year we got a letter in the mail stating that we were doing to court And had to pay almost $9,000.00. We knew that there was nothing that we could do so we looked online for a bankruptcy lawyer and Tom's information popped up. We got a phone call the next day, a meeting set up with in the month and with the following month we had met with Tom and file bankruptcy. Both Tom and Chad helped my family and me get through one of the hardest times in our lives, with extreme ease. They were so kind and helpful, and they work so hard on our behalf and we manage to make it through the other end with a little work on our end because they were so wonderful. We can start fresh with our family because of Tom and the Watton Law group. I hope that if anybody else is family is going through hard times that they consider the wall and log group over any other bankruptcy attorney.
As I continue to develop my expertise in consumer bankruptcy, helping my clients get the full benefit of a financial fresh start remains my highest priority. I work with clients to straighten out their financial difficulties and engage creditors' attorneys and trustees while advocating for my clients' best interests. I am happy to be part of a team that is setting new standards for professionalism, capability, and organization in the consumer bankruptcy field.

The Best Bankruptcy
My lawyer, Tom Arany, was as good as anyone could possibly be without making my bankruptcy disappear altogether. I was a nervous wreck, and the last thing I wanted to do was deal with my finances and certainly, a bankruptcy, signaling my failure as an adult to manage my money. Tom was patient and considerate. He had the knowledge and expertise to do complete the job without mishap. My relief is so great that I don't have words to express my thanks, but, I say thank you very much for helping me during a very difficult time.

Very Helpful
Tom was very thorough and communicative during my filing. I had a rather difficult case and Tom fought to keep my payment to the courts as low as possible. I would highly recommend Tom and the staff at Watton. Thanks Tom!

Excellent Attorney
I recently completed Chapter 7 bankruptcy. It was not something I ever thought I would have to do.
I could not have asked for a better attorney. I found Tom through the Oregon Bar Association. He was there for me during the entire process. When I had a question he was prompt in his replies.
Tom was honest and compassionate with me. That is exactly what I needed. I was in very good hands.

Review of Tom Arany
Tom was extremely helpful when handling my bankruptcy. He was always willing to answer any questions. Tom is very knowledgeable and if there is something he is unsure of, he is always willing to double check for you. I would recommend him to anyone needing to file bankruptcy.

A calm informed voice
Tom helped us with our bankruptcy. He was communicative and informed and frank about what our options were and made sure we were aware of the timeline and of what the court would expect from us. I would recommend Tom to anyone needing help deciding what their options are for bankruptcy.

Just what I needed-- clear, concise, compassionate guidance
I was pretty freaked out when I received a summons to court about an outstanding debt-- a debt I certainly would pay if I could. Tom Arany explained what it meant and what my options were in clear, concise terms. He gave me all the information and was respectful enough to avoid pushing me into any particular action. Mr. Arany is a fine legal professional!

"Excellent attorney. Mr. Arany continues to provide valuable advice on Avvo each time that he responds to a question. Although I have been licensed and practicing for 24 years, including time spent as a judge and magistrate, I continually learn from his answers about different aspects of the law. I would recommend him to everyone."
