Above and Beyond Five Stars

I feel fortunate to have Jonathan guide me through the daunting process of filing bankruptcy (BK). His outstanding customer service and due diligence exceed my expectations. Even though I've given Jonathan similar reviews on other websites, his exceptional business practices and professionalism warra...nt reiterating. I admire his extreme patience, genuine compassion and kindness, straightforwardness, and relentless attention to detail. He's tremendously punctual, he always keeps me "in the loop" and encourages me to ask questions as needed. I am more comfortable with the BK process because I I know that Jonathan absolutely has my "back." We can all appreciate getting second chances, I recommend you let Jonathan help you get a fresh start. Frankly, there are, no other, comparable BK attorneys that I know of. Best Wishes!!!

Bankruptcy Consultation

I was referred to John by another lawyer who trusted him with the specifics of my case. John took his time and with great detail analyzed my entire situation, caused by COVID-19 and recommended several possible outcomes with great clarity. Bankruptcy is a new concept to me and I have no experience wi...th hiring lawyers. John was the 2nd lawyer I consulted with and he was much more thorough and did not pressure me to hire him on the spot over the phone like the other one. I would trust John.

Exemplary Professionalism

Jonathan Vaknin provides professionalism and comfort throughout the entire filing process. This being my first (and only) bankruptcy filing, I was naturally nervous about the outcome of my personal and financial future. He understands the nature of such an extensive and stressful filing process, but ...makes it understandable for someone with zero knowledge about the subject.

Best Bankruptcy Lawyer!

Vaknin Law Firm is amazing ! Jonathan is very easy to talk to & understanding! My husband & I filed for bankruptcy with Jonathan’s help & not once did we feel out of the loop, he always kept us informed. He would respond to our calls or emails the same day, never had to wait around. We thought filin...g for bankruptcy during COVID-19 was going to be difficult but Jonathan made it so smooth from start to finish! Can’t thank him enough!

Highly recommend!

Bankruptcy is stressful enough without adding Covid-19 into the mix. Mr. Vaknin made sure all the paperwork that was required was in order and as a result the call with the judge was quick and simple. The timeline and expectations of the case were laid out clearly and were thoroughly explained. Hire ...him for a seamless experience. Thank you again for helping me get through this Mr. Vaknin.
