Excellent

I was set to do a Chapter 7. Did about 20 hrs of prep and then looked for an atty to do the filing. Found Kathryn on google and called for an appointment. After about an hour on the phone it was determined I didn't need Chapter 7. She saved me a bundle at no charge. I'm sending her something soon as ...a thanks. An honest lawyer. Go see her.

I am so grateful to have Ms. Tokarska represented me to file bankruptcy chapter 7 and concluded my case very smoothly. She is definitely great experience with an excellent presentation from the beginning filed my case until it’s completely finished without a bit of trouble or fear. I was so lucky to ...have her helped on my case. I will be happy to recommend her to all my friends. Thank you Ms. Tokarska!

A bankruptcy attorney that really cares

When I consulted with Attorney Kathryn Tokarska, she fully explained all the options so that I understood them and as a result, I was able to make an informed decision. After I decided to go ahead with my bankruptcy, she provided all the forms I needed, and included a thorough explanation and answere...d all my questions -- by email, a huge convenience to me. I could not have asked for more. Before my hearing she expertly coached me so I knew what to expect and it went very smoothly. My process was completed in the minimal amount of time and I'm very happy that I found and hired Kathryn as my attorney. I would highly recommend Kathryn Tokarska for any personal Chapter 7 bankruptcy, as she really is one of the best in San Diego and it really shows that she cares about her clients. One of the things I liked the most about Kathryn is that she processes all the client meetings and paperwork herself, unlike some other firms that have legal assistants. That gave me confidence that it was being done right and it paid off in my case.

Top Shelf Service yet Affordable...even for my case!

We had been trying to file for a few years. I met with at least 8 different bankruptcy attorneys over those years, most of them referred to me by friends or associates. Kathryn is in a whole different league than all of them. She tells me that my case was a new record for her as far as the total amou...nt of debt discharged - most of that from personal guarantees on a failed business. All of the other attorneys I spoke with used this as a reason to charge more money for my case, which I could not afford. That is why I was never able to file. I even had to pay fees to the first one I talked to, just to talk to him on that initial consultation, non refundable. Kathryn's fees were about half of what others charged but her service was far and above the best. She did not charge for the upfront consultation. She is the only one that answered her phone on the first call. And within just a few hours of that first call, after I emailed her some of my paperwork, she had answers. Yes we qualified for Chp 7 but we needed to file asap. She quoted her fee and the process, and what she needed from me all on that first day. Within a week our case was filed. and 90 days later it was discharged, just like she said it would be. When I did have to leave messages or sent emails, she always got back to me within 1 day, usually the same day, sometimes even on weekends. She actually made proactive calls to me for things she needed or to fill me in on what was happening, which is opposite of all the other attorneys where I always felt like I was chasing them down and begging them to work on my case. She really knows her stuff, and does a great job explaining things, and because of that, and her speed and responsiveness, we are now back on track financially.

Superb Service

Kathryn Tokarska, Attorney, is one in a million. I’ve actually refrained from telling “Lawyer Jokes” since I engaged Kathryn to represent me in a Chapter 7 filing. Not only was she extremely thorough, but pleasant and caring at the same time. During our brief appearance in front of the trustee, sh...e exhibited professionalism and attention to detail that made several of the other attorneys present appear incompetent by comparison. While her rates are extremely competitive, the level of service I received was considerably above and beyond anything I expected. Could I recommend Kathryn? A resounding YES! Carl
