About Nichole

I am licensed in Southern and Central California and have had many unique successes on both Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 cases helping single and married filers find their way out of debt and back on the fast track to credit repair.  Whether you have a little or a lot I can help.

 

In a recent Chapter 13 bankruptcy I was able to remove the negative equity on a fixed mobile home to reduce the amount owed by almost $70,000 allowing the retired civil servant who lived there to keep her home and discharge all of her unsecured debts.  

 

In recent debt litigation I secured a $1.1 million settlement reducing the principal balance owed on a 2 million dollar home in La Costa.

   

If you think there is nothing you can do about your situation you should ask me first.

 

Don't have time to come in for a free consultation or just have a quick question?  

Email me today!  I'll do my best to give you an answer or at least point you in the right direction.

  1. Bankruptcy and debt: 90%

    I've been doing Bankruptcy and Debt Management for the last 6 years and the relief and freedom that my clients experience when their haunting debts are finally gone is truly inspirational to me. It has encouraged me to push the limits of the current laws and achieve unlikely successes in removing or reducing even the most difficult of debts.

  2. Litigation: 10%

    I enjoy the confrontational and formal nature of litigation. It is my true favorite means of dispute resolution. However, it isn't for everyone and it takes a long time to get there so I don't do it as often as I'd like but whenI do get the chance to litigate I'm aggressive and effective.

      Review Nichole Cristilli

      Extremely Thankful for Ms. Cristilli

      Posted by

      I cannot say enough great things about Ms. Cristilli. From the moment you meet with her until the time you leave, you feel like she really listens to you and genuinely cares about your individual situation. Unfortunately, our family had to file bankruptcy but we were extremely thankful to find an attorney like Ms. Cristilli. She helped us through the entire process from start to finish. She advocated on our behalf at the trustee hearing and we were able to keep our retirement accounts intact. We couldn't ask for anyone more compassionate and knowledgeable.

      She really saved me! She kept me from losing my house, and was able to get a loan modification to make it affordable and a fair interest rate.

      Jonathan Ring, Bankruptcy and debt Attorney on Apr 21, 2016
      Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

      Ms. Cristilli is adept in all aspects of bankruptcy and is my go-to attorney whenever I have a client, friend or family member that needs a consultation, representation or just needs a question or two answered. She is that rare breed of lawyer that truly wants to help people and puts advocating for her clients and achieving the best results possible for them before remuneration or notoriety for herself. She works tirelessly for all of her clients no matter how large or small small their cases may be. I have recommended her services to many and will continue to do so as she is both an outstanding lawyer and an extraordinary human being. I unreservedly endorse Ms. Cristilli.

      Nicole and I have worked on several matters together and I am always highly impressed with her ethics and work product. I would not hesitate to refer any family member to her for representation.

      Ever since her days of law school, Nichole has been a sharp and talented advocate. She trained early on to be able to competently present her side of a case and to effectively address counterarguments. I highly recommend her for her advocacy skills as well as her compassion and understanding.

      I have known Nichole for a number of years and she is reliable and extremely responsive. She is a great advocate and a formidable opponent to opposing counsel. She is an attorney you want on your side.
