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!!!

Positive Experience

If you are thinking about Bankruptcy Erik Severino is the lawyer you should consider. I was terrified to go through the whole process and once I met with him he eased my nerves significantly. Every single time I had a question and I was emailing in a panic he answered me. Every time I had a concern... he would help me out. The case was done and over with before I even knew it. When we went to court I saw a lawyer that was dressed very unprofessional, one that missed his meeting and one that was late. It felt so good to know that my lawyer was there on time, prepared, professional and ready to go. He made this difficult for me time not such a hasle, took care of everything for me. If you are looking for an excellent Bankruptcy lawyer your should strongly consider Erik Severino. If you don't believe me call his office and make an appointment for a free consultation and see for yourself.

Rude and evasive

Went to my consultation today. The receptionist was rude. Erik had me waiting for about a half hour after my appointment time because he was still with the previous client, whom of which he walked out. When I got in his office, I found that he couldn't help me with my financial situation, so I reques...ted a refund of my $100 retainer deposit. He appeared to be offended by my request and started telling me that I need to write a letter and mail it. I stated that I can just write it now. He gave me a sheet of paper and opened the door for me to leave stating that he had another appointment (I wasn't in his office for more than 10 minutes) and to give the letter to his "receptionist". I asked how long it will take for a refund and he told me that he didn't know. I'm thinking to myself, "what a tool this guy is?" He didn't even walk me out. So I sat out in the reception area and wrote the letter. Afterwards, I took the letter to the receptionist and asked her to sign it and give me a copy. She said, "I'm not signing anything!" without even attempting to take the letter. I told her that Erik said she could. She then took the letter and signed it and gave me a copy without another word. In my opinion, both of them were very unprofessional, ride, and untrustworthy; I feel like I am going to have a problem getting my money back.

The Most Professional, Prepared, and Competent Bankruptcy Attorney your going to find!

Erik Severino is not only one of the most competent and professional attorneys you could have represent you in a Bankruptcy Procedure, he has also got to be the most compassionate and supportive attorney that you could possibly find to guide you through this process. Contemplating filing for a Bankru...ptcy was very stressful for me as I was also dealing with some other difficult personal matters at the time. Mr. Severino answered all my questions clearly and made the entire process as quick and simple as it could possibly be. His attention to detail and his quick acceptance and replies to my phone calls and emails truly made me feel like I was getting personalized attention and not just being treated as an another anonymous case number. I can assure you that I will be using Erik, his law firm, and their expertise in any future or further legal assistance that I may require.
