Made a stressful situation not so stressful

I retained Eric Severino to help me with a stressful and somewhat scary legal matter. He gave me lists of documents needed, which made it very easy to gather these items. After I retained him I no longer had to deal with phone calls, or documents or other people involved. He handled everything. His s...taff was kind and very helpful. If I had any questions I would fire off an email and within 12-24 hours I received their reply. Very helpful, reasonable, and I am glad I hired Eric to help me with this matter. He’s good at what he does.

Best in Vegas

Erik has been an excellent source of guidance and an advocate for me throughout the Ch. 13 process, I have no doubt that I got one of if not the best bankruptcy lawyer in Las Vegas. I did extensive research, read reviews, and went on more than a few free consultations before deciding to meet with him.... He went well beyond a reasonable time frame during our initial consultation, which helped seal the deal on my end. Being one of the very, very few lawyers in the area with all 5 star reviews, I can attest to the fact that he has earned it and more over the last 10 months we have been working together. The best impression he left me with after meeting him was that he was interested in me as a person and helping me get the best settlement in my case, I wasn't just another obligation or payment to pad his bank account, which is the distinct feeling I got from some of the other attorneys I spoke with. Bankruptcy is a process that has many variables and can be extremely scary if you don't have good representation. His knowledge of the system and the process made it much smoother with a better end result than I thought I would have. There was some information that he was unsure about in my case but did the research to nail it down in a timely manner. He is always very professional but yet personal enough to be reassuring about any fears or concerns. He has also proven to be a very intelligent, highly skilled out of the box thinker - he is the ONLY lawyer who looked ahead and adjusted for several factors that would ultimately affect my overall settlement amount and monthly payment. That skill set has certainly made this bankruptcy as affordable as it can be for me and I appreciate it. He is a great communicator, very punctual with responses to emails and always available for my endless emails and questions about developments in the case and how things would shake out. Even though my case has been settled and under way for almost a year, he still gets back to me about any new issues as if it was the first day of our business together again. Truly a rare breed of professional, I feel fortunate to have found him and am really glad I took the time to do the research instead of just jumping at the first lawyer I spoke with out of fear of the situation and just want to dump it off on someone else to handle it. I have absolute confidence that anyone who chooses to go with Erik Severino will never look back with hesitation or regret about their decision as I did. Thanks Erik, even though I have to pay my dues, I feel extremely fortunate to have been able to work with and am truly grateful for all that you did for me. I haven't lost a second of sleep wondering if I might have had a better outcome with another lawyer. You're the best!

CHAPTER 7 BANKRUPTCY

I chose Erik Severino to represent me on my bankruptcy because from the first meeting he was clear and supportive of my situation. He took the time to explain the steps and requirements from filing to discharge. His office staff was always helpful, courteous, professional and always made sure my ...concerns were addressed and taken care of. Erik always kept me up to date via e-mail and returned my calls which made me feel well informed of my case. My personal experience was a positive one and I will recommend Erik Severino to anyone.

A bankruptcy lawyer that gets the job done

When my husband and I first met Erik, I have to amit I was a little aberhensive with having Erik do my bankruptcy..one reason, I had file bankruptcy before, and my bankruptcy was not done correctly. I had explain this to Erik and he assured me ,He will take care of everything and this time it will do...ne correctly. I'm so happy that I took the chance with Erik. He was successful to do the bankrupt correctly, also he would keep me and my wife inform every step of the way. He would call us or email us and always keep us in the loop. I finally started to relax because Erik was taking care of all our creditors where we didn't get any harressing call and what a relief. Furthermore, Erik will go to court with you, and help every step of the way. More important, when we went to court I realize how well Erik was highly repected from the courts appointees. If your looking for a honest, repected bankruptcy lawyer, Just think Ecir Serverino as you attorney! He'll get the job done!!!
