I found Daniela to be professional, caring, personable and who genuinely cares about you and your case. Even though I was unable to retain her services for financial reasons, she still offered suggestions and guidance throughout the process and offered her availability with any questions I may have going forward.
Her office assistant, Renee was also personable, with a strong willingness to be helpful.
Thank you, Daniela and Renee for your kindness!
While I didn’t work directly with Daniela, she and her assistant Renee took the time to ask me about my case and send resources to help. I was having trouble with the EDD and received a notice of overpayment. I contacted an EDD agent, my local assemblymen and consulted with two attorneys to ask questions and get clarity on the matter. My advice is don’t be afraid to ask questions, most people are willing to help. Daniela was one of them.
I HELP HELP PEOPLE ELIMINATE OVERWHELMING DEBT SO THEY CAN GET THE FRESH START THEY DESERVE.
I help help people eliminate overwhelming debt so they can get the fresh start they deserve!
My mission is to provide quality affordable legal services in a professional and friendly manner. I provide personal attention to my clients in the areas of consumer bankruptcy and family law.
After having worked for other law firms most of my legal career, I decided to establish my own corporation in May, 2009. My vision was to assist people in getting out from under the heavy burden of their financial and emotional difficulties and to provide them with a fresh start in life. My focus is on both consumer bankruptcy law (both Chapters 7 and 13) and family law.
I decided I wanted to open my own private practice so that I could be closer to the community that I wanted to serve. I decided I wanted direct interaction with my clients and to give them the individual attention they deserve. It is both more rewarding for my clients and personally satisfying for me.
Over the years I have made it a personal goal and habit to give back to the community. In law school, I started a mock trial program for a local public elementary school. Over the past 12 years I have volunteered for the Los Angeles County Bar Association's Domestic Violence Project, Immigration Legal Assistance Project, the Aids Legal Services Project and most recently their Debtor's Assistance Project. I have volunteered at the Children's Law Center at the Edward Edleman Children's Court and I currently serve on my church's Haiti Committee, which has been assisting the children of Haiti since 2004.

Daniela!! What a lawyer!!
Daniel was my mother’s bankruptcy attorney. Mom passed away before her case was complete. Daniela helped me complete her affairs with much patience and kindness. She gave information I was not aware of and explained legal terms I didn’t understand. Thanks so much Daniela, now I know why mom spoke of you so often.

Couldn't Have Asked For More
I've always had amazing credit but had a very bad year and couldn't pay my debt. After waking up and finding my bank account frozen, I went into a panic. Ms. Romero was highly recommended and did not disappoint. She explained everything in a way I could understand and made me feel good about moving forward with bankruptcy. Now I feel like I have a second chance. Couldn't recommend her more.

The right attorney!
Daniela did an amazing job with my bankruptcy case. She is wonderful to work with and is an experienced attorney who knows what to do in unforeseen difficult situations that can arise during the bankruptcy process, which is what happened in my case. I have come to know how important it is to have an attorney who knows what they are doing, as well as being prepared and willing to fight for you, which she is! Wish she did family law too! She has a great reputation and is well respected by her peers. I will always highly recommend her!

Life Saver
My wife and I consulted with and then hired Daniela and her staff to secure a Chapter 7 discharge of massive credit card debt.
My mental health suffered greatly during the process because I was overly nervous. After 40 years of paying bills on time, suddenly we were in the position of not paying our cards and falling deeper into debt.
My wife was calmer with help from our lawyer and after several months of working through our situation with Daniela, our filing, and then discharge came through beautifully due to the expert professionalism of Daniela and Melissa.
My wife starts a new, better paying job next week, I have a new job, and we have ZERO debt. We enrolled in the credit repair program and have our lives back.
Our only regret is that we didn't do this 10 years ago!
If you want your life back, I urge you to make a consultation with Daniella ASAP.

Knowledgeable and friendly!
Daniela deserves a whole hearted five stars. She is both professional in her knowledge and presentation, but comfortable and friendly. She hired well when choosing her assistant Melissa.
I called first and asked some questions about exit planning for a business proposal. The issues included the types of debts and lease contracts that could be discharged under bankruptcy. The internet has some information but the details are a bit elusive unless you know what questions to ask. I asked a few more by email, and she suggested I just come in for a consultation. It always turns out for me that my questions require more than simple conversation. She spent over 70 minutes with me even though it was clear after our phone conversation that I did not need her attorney services in the near future. What a generous person.
What I learned is that she has decades of experience, and I like this as I am sure that this translates into a wide network of other attorneys, judges, trustees, and other collaterals involved in this speciality of the law. With her easy going and friendly temperament, I am sure she has more of these relationships, and with better connectedness than most.
Her office is humble and maybe a bit off putting in this way. But there is no doubt she can get the job done better than most.

A very capable and knowledable attorney
I met with Ms. Romero to handle my BK case, she was very kind and understanding of my situation and advised on how to handle my case. She always answered my calls and e-mail in a timely manner, always professional, and always kept my updated on how my case was going. She is constantly going to classes and seminars to keep up on the latest trends in her field. I would recommend her to the highest degree. She also referred me to a trust attorney that turned out to be an excellent referral as well.

Very kind, warm and helpful!
I had a very challenging time during the recession, losing my full-time job while pursuing a Master's and there came a time where I simply "hit the wall" in my finances. In the midst of it, I also had a couple of incorrectly reported, disputed debts along with a couple of legitimate but ever so painful marks such as my believing my closing AT&T bill had been paid while actually have something like a $7 remaining balance!? Daniela was very kind, straightforward and compassionate in helping me through the final stretches of cleaning up my credit where the last one or two Collection Agencies were reporting negatively based on bad information and as a consumer, they essentially would not take me seriously. They took Daniela seriously and in a sense gave her professional courtesy that they would not afford me, allowing for removal of a negative report being removed. A few months later, I was checking my credit, talking to a Mortgage Lender about the CALHFA program, intending to simply inquire and I didn't realize my FICO score was already high enough to be approved for a CALHFA Mortgage! About 40-45 days later, I was a homeowner! Don't give up, people! You may have to learn to hold your peace as you fight through your challenges but do methodically chip away and you will begin to see light at the end of the tunnel. As you do, you'd be well served to have Daniela walk alongside you and help.

Highly Recommended--Trustworthy, Thorough, and Compassionate
I found Daniela online after having a consultation with another attorney in preparation for filing Chapter 7. Daniela took the time to explain all of my legal options, was very patient in answering all of my questions, very thorough in combing through my financial information and background, and decided that Chap 7 was the best decision for my situation. She was with me EVERY step of the way, including attending the meeting with the Trustee after filing (NOT all lawyers do this personally, I learned, so I felt very well taken care of). Also, and this to me counts for the most, Daniela really does care about you as a client and has a trustworthiness and compassion that is very important when going through a tough financial/legal decision. At the same time, she is a thorough and tough attorney, meaning she will stand up on your behalf through the filing process. I am incredibly thankful for her help, and most highly recommend her if you are considering filing bankruptcy. It's not a fun process, and you need a pro lawyer who works for you personally.

Pleasantly surprised
I have been pleasantly surprised by an Attorney. After being taken for a ride by another Attorney in the middle of a bankruptcy I was surprised to find Ms. Romero. She is professional, knowledgable and quite empathetic. Guiding me through the process without and correcting the errors that were made by another with a lot of class. I will be recommending her to anyone who is looking for a quality Attorney that they can trust.

Recommendation for Ms Romero
Going through financial hardship is one of the most stressful challenges one can go through. When I sought out an Attorney for counsel I found Ms Romero. I found her to be an extremely ethical, caring and straight forward person. Her integrity is refreshing and her attention to my situation made me feel like I was her only client. If you are experiencing a financially challenging situation, if your home is being threatened by foreclosure and/or you need to file BK, I recommend Daniela Romero without hesitation.

Hands on personal service...I highly recommend her
Dealing with such a stressful situation such as Chapter 13 BK was hard enough and we feel so blessed to have found Daniela Romero and her staff to help us get through it. She and her staff were hands on and answered all our questions. All my inquiries either by phone or email were answered immediately and we did not talk to processors that did not know our case but to Daniela directly and her very efficient assistant Amy. The filing of our Chapter 13 was so thorough that our 341 meeting went without any issues and she was right there with us. She was on top of our case throughout. If you want an attorney that is knowledgeable, thorough, efficient,and most important, accessible and personable, then you should definitely choose Daniela Romero. Unlike most attorneys, she is so easy to talk to and always answers and addresses all your concerns. I would recommend her to anyone who wants to lessen the stress you experience when filing for BK.
