Professionalism, Courteous and Understanding

From the initial consultation to filing of Chapter 7 Bankruptcy, the whole process was nothing short of professionalism, courteous and understanding of my needs and situation. Mr Vaknin’s first priority was to comprehend and understanding my financial situation. Compared to my past bankruptcy filing ...experience, Mr Vaknin made me feel very comfortable by explaining the process step by step in very professional manner. The most important and satisfying thing that I have experienced with Mr Vaknin was his prompt responses in every questions and requests I had regardless of time or day. I would hope I will never have to use Mr Vaknin’s services again in the future, but if I have to, without a doubt, Mr Vaknin will be representing me. Thank you and please be safe and well.

Amazing service

Jonathan did such an amazing job from start to finish. Not only was he professional, he was understanding, patient, kind and extremely thorough with the entire process of my Ch.7. I’m relieved to have had Jonathan get me through this difficult and uneasy process.

A real “counselor”

My wife and I needed help with our case, that was closed without a discharge from 4 years ago when we lived in the Bay. We now lived in Indiana and needed help with a lawyer from that area. Jonathan was kind and patient, and gave advice that met our best interest and not his own. We just wanted to cl...ose the old bankruptcy with a discharge, and he could have easily taken our money....But that would not have solved all of our problems. I’m on disability and have incurred a lot of debt since the first bankruptcy. He advised me to refile a new Chapter 7 in the state of Indiana and take care of all the debt I thought I wasn’t able to. Now that is the true definition of a counseling! Meeting your clients needs and not your own!

Chapter 7

Jonathan Vaknin was the absolute best Attorney I could possibly hope for. I was very nervous and upset that I had to file for Chapter 7 and Jonathan was extremely patient, professional and thorough thru the entire process. Any questions or concerns I had he addressed them immediately. There were a ...lot of changes made in my case and he stayed on top of all of it and made sure I understood everything clearly and comfortably. Extremely, kind and thoughtful in conversation and he made an awful situation for me as painless and stress free, as possible. Excellent Attorney!!

Extremely Professional, Experienced, Compassionate, Fast Response, Step by Step Guidance, Very Fair Attorney Fees

Jonathan is an experienced, top notch Bankruptcy Attorney. I highly recommend him! At a time, where having to file a Chp 7 BK is stressful and depressing, Jonathan is compassionate at all times throughout the process. He is extremely professional and guides you step by step from consult to comple...tion. His response time is always within a few hours of receiving emails or calls. Due to my unique work schedule, we were able to work online with both email and visual meetings. This was very stress free in the process for me. Lastly, his attorney fees were the most reasonable I found in my search for BK Attorneys. Again, I highly recommend Jonathan as your attorney.
