Darren Gordon Smith

I feel very lucky to have had Darren represent me in the past and is always available if I every have a legal question. When a honest lawyer sounds like a oxymoron, Darren has not only lived up that statement but I can personally say I would never regret recommending him... We need more lawyers like ...him!

Mr. Smith was very helpful when our family was going through an illegal forclosure of our home in Orange, California. Mr. Smith was also very helpful in getting a lawsuit dismissed on our behalf concerning the city of Orange and a dirveway that was out of compliance with the city. On numerous occasio...ns. Mr. Smith was available to answer legal questions where answers were needed for our family.

Darren was very honest and professional and did everything he said he would do. He Took over everything and was reassuring to me thru-out the process. He was also sensitive when dealing with me.. who was an emotional wreck at the time. He releaved a tremendous amount of stress from a naturally stre...ssful situation. He was very communicative and always called me back immediately whenever I needed anything! This is so different from most attorneys I have worked with in the past.. even talented ones.. They usually cannot be reached and are bad communicators. Darren is talented AND provides great service! He made everything happen that I needed to happen! He was able to get me 100% out of debt and he managed to include all of my IRS debt, that alone totaled over $100,000, completely discharged in a chapter 7! I would reccomend Darren for his knowledge, professionalism and his commitment to making big things happen. Thank you so much, Darren!!!

For more than 16 years we have gone to Darren Smith for all of our legal needs and he has ALWAYS either steered us to the RIGHT source or in most cases, he has taken on the work we needed done and performed brilliantly. In business, he has SAVED us money far exceeding his very fair legal fees. He...'s helped us with BKs, real estate, investments, sticky past divorces, investment counseling and much more. He always calls back the same day and is friendly, approachable, gregarious, respected by his peers and takes his work very seriously, though is not at all up-tight. You would like working with him. Both my wife and I have tremendous respect for him. Also, we have recommended Darren to many of our friends over the years, and they, too, have been impressed with his success in clearing up their problems, both big and small. We recommend Darren to anyone wanting an honest, fair, hard working attorney who does not charge you an arm and a leg for every little task.

I retained the services of Darren Smith in 2011 to pursue filing bankruptcy. I was very apprehensive about doing so because of the possible stigma and potential negative impact it would have on my life. From the beginning, Darren was very knowledgeable and informative with the added bonus of being ...comforting and reassuring. He explained everything thoroughly and was very prompt in responding to any questions or issues that arose. His office staff was also just as wonderful and responsive. I was definitely kept in the loop as to the status of my case. What could have been a very uncomfortable and drawn out experience ended up being smooth and expeditious. I would recommend Darren wholeheartedly to my family, friends, colleagues and anyone else that may inquire or be in need of assistance regarding a bankruptcy filing.
