When I transitioned from the mortgage industry to the field of law, I began with a clear plan. My mission was to study the law so I could better assist others with their finances.
Today, my practice includes the full spectrum of bankruptcy law, including Chapters 7, 11 (plus Subchapter V), and 13. I am certified by the State Bar of California as a Legal Specialist in Bankruptcy Law, but I continue to seek out opportunities to learn and grow in any way that I can. I believe in the power of using a collaborative approach to help my clients reach their goals, so when necessary, I work with other attorneys in order to facilitate the best possible outcomes for my clients.
Ultimately, I aim to provide meaningful, timely solutions to individuals in need of legal advice from a fresh perspective. I especially enjoy helping others design resourceful strategies that allow them to keep their homes when they’ve fallen on hard times. Sometimes, this can be achieved through bankruptcy, and other times, it is better accomplished through an alternative approach.
I strive to provide every client with the professionalism of a large firm, and the personal attention of a small one.

I Highly Recommend, smooth process during a difficult financial decision
In the last year I went through a divorce, loss of job due to Covid and having to choose bankruptcy as the best option. Bert made the process extremely smooth.

The Perfect Attorney
If you are in need of a wonderful, caring, thoughtful, smart, and ethical attorney, look no further, Mr. Bert Briones and staff are outstanding.

"Bert's focus and dedication to bankruptcy law makes him an excellent choice for those in need of a consultation on their personal or business financial situation."
"I endorse this lawyer. I worked with Bert on a matter for a mutual client. Bert was creative in problem solving, worked hard to help the client reach his goal, and clearly is a great lawyer. I think anyone looking for a bankruptcy attorney in Southern California should call Bert."
"Bert has chosen to focus on a narrow area of the law, allowing him to excel in that area. He is also a very high integrity professional I trust enough that I am comfortable putting my own clients' welfare in his capable hands. Debtor law is often a mass-production effort, but Bert provides a thoughtful, personal approach."
