also known as Holly Roark
I am a bankruptcy attorney in Boise, Idaho, and also represent clients in California.
I got into bankruptcy law because when I was growing up we lost our house to foreclosure and later we also got evicted from another house. We were on welfare off and on. Financial problems never seemed to cease when I was a kid. I have real empathy for what my clients are going through. I know first hand how scary it can be. Although my parents did not have the tools to prevent some of the hardships, I now have the tools under the Bankruptcy Code to help my clients avoid some of the outcomes I had to deal with as a kid.
My hobbies are baking, history, and cycling.

My husband and I highly recommend Mrs. Rourke for any of your legal needs. She was very understanding, she listened to us. Kept constant communications. We are very pleased with her and we'll use her in the future. If needed.

There are no words that can adequately express our gratitude and thanks for Holly. Nothing prepares you for the emotional gravity of facing bankruptcy--and we were looking at a business-related one. Because our case was so nuanced, we did not fit "cookie-cutter" advise. Two previous lawyers had given...

I was recently sued by a bank for missing a payment on a credit card debt. When I was served the summons, I had no idea what to do. Frankly, I was on the verge of panic. I knew that ignoring it could be disastrous, so I did the only thing I could think of and searched for a legal representative to he...
