Efficiency in knowing bankruptcy law

Mr. Mortensen and his office personnel was extremely beneficial to my moving forward after bankruptcy. Mr. Mortensen is very knowledgeable and has the answers promptly. He answered all my questions even through emails. I highly recommend Mr. Mortensen for any debt problems. If I could rate him 10 st...ars, I would. Mary A.

Wayne, (Mr. Mortensen): I concur, he knows what he is talking about. I should have consulted him earlier, for our current situation. I say, it's never to late. I'm calling Wayne, as soon as I am done here. I'm done. Calling Wayne now.

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.
