Relief

I decided to contact Adam after reading several positive reviews. Adam was everything that others had said and more. Truly felt like I was in quicksand and stressed out beyond belief. Within the first 30 min. of my consultation, Adam had me seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. He is very thorou...gh and professional, taking the time to make sure you understand the process and what the next step is. Adam will always return your emails or phone calls, he truly cares about what you're going through. I highly recommend contacting Adam Arnold if you're contemplating filing for bankruptcy.

BEST BANKRUPTCY LAWYER IN SAN DIEGO

Filed Feb 28, 2018 For Chapter 13 Case Closed: March 02 2018 Always, always return your call or text even on weekends. Keep you at peace. We went to Yelp to look for BK attorney who has real positive reviews. We found Adam B. Arnold, we saw the positive reviews, but was still not fully vested t...o hire him. Then I visited this website AVVO were the entire attorneys website, We saw over 150 reviews on him all 5 stars. As, I reviewed the positive comments, we have decided he is the right attorney to represent our Bankruptcy. Oh, check his Google reviews as well. We made an appointment and told about our financial situations. We were ready to file the Bankruptcy because we no longer have financial wherewithal to pay our debts. However, he told us he will examine our finances and best option either Chapter 7 or 13. Please tell him all your financial misgivings with honesty and truthfulness. The reason being it is a team effort; it will make your case a lot easier when you see the trustee (less angst on the meeting). Fortunately, we heed his advice not to file soon and took care of other documents upon his sound advice. I (husband) was determined to file 7, but he explained the negative ramification of having home equity etc., which the trustee might pursue. Overall, Chapter 13 was a better choice and all make sense. The reason I am doing this is because he deserve to be recognized for his meticulous hardwork as forensic bankruptcy attorney. He is like playing chess, two or three steps ahead of the game. You want an attorney with experience with only bankruptcy cases, real positive reviews, and No professional misconduct. Sincerely, Lee

Adam changed our lives!

We were very nervous about filing bankruptcy and very embarrassed that we were in a position for needing to do so. After reading several Yelp reviews for Adam as well as other attorneys, I decided that I would call him as his reviews were excellent. Adam answered my call right away and answered the ...many questions I had. He put my mind at ease. He explained the process to me in a way that was easy to understand. Once my husband and I met with him, we could tell that he was very experienced in his field and trusted his guidance and advice. He always responds to my emails within minutes and answers every call. His office hours are flexible and he always worked around our schedules. I had a ton of questions for him during the time our case was open and he answered them all and was happy to do it. I can't thank him enough for what he did for us. He spent many hours with us on our case. He helped us get the fresh start that we needed and never thought was possible. He is patient, kind, and very trustworthy. I would recommend him to anyone seeking help with a bankruptcy.

Extremely helpful and professional

Adam helped my wife and I file for bankruptcy for the first time. He helped us compile a list of all necessary paperwork as well as walked us through the entire process. When it came time to bankruptcy court, he reassured us that it was going to go well, and it did.

He is hands on with his clients, and ensures they receive the attorney communication and expertise their finances deserve.

"I highly recommend and endorse Adam Arnold as a bankruptcy attorney. I have known Adam for 7 years and have worked with him on several bankruptcy related matters. He is knowledgeable, intelligent, even keeled, and well regarded by the courts and trustees. In addition to being a debtor's attorney, Adam also worked as a creditor attorney and uses that knowledge to further his clients best interests. Myself and others in the bankruptcy community regularly consult with him on creditor related issues because of his insight as a former creditor attorney."
