Bankruptcy doesn’t have to be scary…

Kathy Johnson made filing bankruptcy easy and always assured me and kept me in the loop! I was referred to her by my sister and I am glad I was able to file and get ahead. People have so many reasons for filing and it can be scary at first but Kathy made the experience easy and she never stopped hel...ping me through the entire process. She really went out of her way to make sure my best interest was always the focus. She will make sure you understand and are comfortable with the terms. It was a hard decision to file but really was the best for me. Kathy and I worked together to make adjustments during the process and now I’m done!! I could not be more thrilled with how this process went. Kathy was prompt with emails and questions I had, which I had a lot of situations come up during my bankruptcy, but she was there making sure everything was in order!! I admit I was probably annoying at times but Kathy was great. The greatest aspect for me was being able to finish ahead of schedule, Kathy definitely had my best interest in mind and goes to bat for her clients!! If your thinking about filing definitely give Kathy Johnson a call. Thank you Kathy for the open communication, understanding my concerns, and making filing bankruptcy an easy process.

Personal Bankruptcy

I highly recommend the Law Office of Kathryn Lynne Johnson to anyone considering a personal bankruptcy. Kathy thoroughly understands all current bankruptcy laws and I was educated on the legal steps and procedures. She took the time to learn and understand my particular financial situation, thorough ...reviewed the details of my case, and informed me ahead of time of any possible ramifications, or delays, to complete this stressful legal process. It was the first step to a new beginning in my life and the best decision I made.

She knows what she is doing!!!

Kathy really helped me throughout my process of going through Bankruptcy. She is very knowledgeable and helpful throughout the whole process from beginning to end. I was so scared of even starting the paperwork and process however Kathy explained what I needed to do and fill out. I did the Chapter ...13 - where it took me 3 years to pay off my debt. I know I could have not done this without her help, guidance and knowledge. I am truly grateful and blessed to have had her by my side and guiding me through the difficult time in my life. Thank you, S.M.

Bankruptcy

When I first knew I had to file for bankruptcy I was panicked and scared from everything I had heard. Kathryn took all the fear and anxiety away for me. She was on the ball and better still kept me on track. Took all the legal talk and translated it into something simple that I could understand. She ...made it such an easy going nice experience (for what it was). I am so thankful I found her. I can't recommend her enough. If you ever find yourself in the unfortunate position of having to do this you can't go wrong with Kathryn. My family and I are so thankful for her and will forever be in her debt for all the help she provided during our hardest of times. She is amazing plain and simple. God Bless.

Made me feel better about my bankruptcy

Kathy was great from Day 1. I didn’t know what to expect, I wasn’t even sure if bankruptcy was the right direction for me, I also had a possible foreclosure and huge equity loan looming over me. However, I sat down with Kathy and we talked about the details, what I could and couldn’t do. She created ...a plan that was specific to my needs, I was in school, and had federal loans, she helped figured out how to deal with the forbearance as well. She was great in communication, in person or email and made me feel better about the process every part of the way. It’s a long, grueling, unnerving process and it’s not worth trying to Google your way through it. I’m a lawyer myself but no background in bankruptcy or the experience that Kathy has. You want someone who knows what they are doing, I have already recommended her to others and I will continue to do so. 2 and a half years later- my bankruptcy has closed, I’m on my way to building back my credit and starting with a clean slate. It was worth it, and Kathy helped make it happen and made it so much easier.
