Minimal stress BK experience

Sam made the process very easy and thoroughly explained the order of events. Filing bankruptcy is not a comfortable experience but he was able to make it a much easier one than I expected, I highly recommend Sam.

Free Bankruptcy DVD really helped me

I was impressed with the proceedings for Bankruptcy filing by Sam at Robertson and Benevento Attorneys. I was not sure what to do and really wanted some information. I went online and got a FREE Bankruptcy DVD from www.bankruptcybenevento.com and it was very insightful as to how I should proceed with... Bankruptcy. I called Sam from the DVD and met so he could further explain Chapter 7 Bankruptcy and Chapter 13 Bankruptcy. He was straightforward and good at explaining the difference. If you are looking at Bankruptcy and need info, Go to www.bkvegas.com and get the free bankruptcy dvd. it will most certainly help you in your decision on whether or not to file bankruptcy.‎

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.
