Bankruptcy and Debt 25%

I advise individuals with debt regarding the benefits of filing a bankruptcy. Many times the debtor will be able to retain large amounts of their property while having some of their debts discharged. For more information about filing a Chapter 7 bankruptcy petition, visit our website.

Our firm can also help business owners navigate regulations in order to be licensed. Contact us for more information regarding your business today.

25%
Estate Planning 25%

Advising clients about passing their wealth in a manner they choose. The primary reason to make an estate plan is to avoid property passing according to state statute. I advise clients on formation of trusts, drafting of a will, and documents regarding end of life treatment.

25%
Probate 25%

Probate is the process where the court administrates the affairs of a person's estate; this includes the passing of property from the decedent to heirs. Probate is a process that many have to deal with, and an attorney can serve in this position or represent the person serving in this position. Probate is also the proper place to challenge a will or trust that was created as a result of undue influence by another.

Posted by Manny R. | January 31, 2014 | Estate Planning

Talk to your mother about estate planning. Then talk to Chris Dziak

After my father and my uncle died, they left my mother with a lot of property held in trust and real estate holdings in New Mexico. She and I could not understand how to protect assets and still make sure that grandchildren could go to college after she was gone. Chris Dziak is a former engineer and ...it shows. His attention to detail was tremendously important to planning the estate. He knew what he was doing and took the extra time to make things right. He has the sensitivity and discretion required to understand the concerns of high net worth individuals. Thank you, Mr. Dziak.

Christopher is a wonderful human being and a wonderful lawyer. Professional, helpful, available, supportive. I felt that I was in good hands at all times. The process was done effeciently, effectively and in a very timely manner. I recommend him highly.

Great Service, Very Helpful

I did not hire Chris as an attorney, but I did speak to him for a consultation about bankruptcy. I had a financial problem that led me to consider bankruptcy. After speaking with Chris for over 30 min about bankruptcy, he mentioned something I had not thought of, to try and fix my situation without r...esorting to bankruptcy. Chris was very helpful and was able to help me solve my financial situation without bankruptcy. I would certainly hire Chris or any of the attorneys at his firm to handle any future legal matters that come up.
