About Anthony

*Obtain your Fresh Start Today!  Call now for a free Initial Consultation.* 

I am Southern California Attorney with a practice focused primarily on Bankruptcy Law (Chapter 7, 13, 11, litigation).  I handle a variety of cases in other areas of law as well.  I worked for one of the largest debtor bankruptcy firms in Southern California for many years after graduating law school.  I was the managing attorney of their chapter 13 department.  I have now opened my own practice, the Law Offices of Anthony B. Vigil, APC. 

I grew up in Southern California and attended California State Polytechnic University of Pomona where I earned a B.S. in Business.  I also attended University of La Verne Law School where I earned a J.D. in Law.  

I am admitted to practice law in the state of Califorina and Hawaii.  Feel free to contact me for a free initial consultation.
