Posted by Robert | February 22, 2022 | Hired Attorney | Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

Great Attorney

I am so grateful to have Rex Tran represent me during my chapter 7 bankruptcy. He is a thorough expert in bankruptcy law. But what he does best is that he makes the complicated bankruptcy process easy to understand. From start to finish, Rex guided me continuously with clear and simple directions. ...I was very distressed when I got served with multiple subpoenas from my creditors. After talking to Rex, he assured me that it will be cleared during my bankruptcy. And it did. What a relief to have the subpoenas dropped. During the bankruptcy process, Rex told me exactly what was needed in a very organized and simple way. And he answered all of my questions in a timely manner. Going through this bankruptcy was a nerve-racking experience for me but Rex made it easy as it can be. Because of his meticulous expertise and guidance, I always had a piece of mind throughout the whole process. As a result, I got my discharge today. It took about 3 months. Thank You Mr. Rex Tran for all your help and effort.

Mr. Tran Provided an Exceptional, Quick, Easy and Modern Process.

I filed for chapter 7 bankruptcy through Mr. Tran. Mr. Tran provided exceptional service throughout what can obviously be a tense and anxious process. He was prompt with replies that were succinct and clear in their instruction. Indeed, as he advised, the most difficult part of the process was gather...ing the necessary documents. But Mr. Tran provided written instructions that were clear and easy to follow. In a good way, there was very little to discuss beyond what the forms themselves laid out with regard to what was needed and what I could expect. But any time I did have follow-up questions, Mr. Tran was exceptionally prompt. With covid precautions in effect, everything was done virtually. I did not have to meet with Mr. Tran throughout the entire process. I thought this was an exceptional upside, although I am sure I could have met with Mr. Tran had I preferred a more in person form of communication. In fact, I did not even have to go to court as covid precautions required for a virtual hearing. Dare I say, everything was an exceptionally easy process all accomplished from my home via a computer, phone and one trip to the post office. The total cost to file through Mr. Tran for my admittedly simple bankruptcy was 1600 which included court filing fees.

Great to work with

Rex Tran was a great attorney to work with my my BK case. He was very thorough with all the details, his communication was always good and open (answered emails, text, calls, etc.). He answered all questions that I had and more. Cost was affordable as well. Very flexible with appointments especia...lly during pandemic (virtual appointments were accepted). I would highly recommend his services.

Easy to work with

Rex was easy to work with and walked us through every step of the way. They were quick to respond to emails and phone calls when questions came about. We were lucky enough to pay off a few months early and he was quick to file the discharge paperwork with the courts. I would recommend them to anyo...ne who needs assistance.

Exceptional work. Outstanding attorney

Rex Tran is an excellent attorney. From day one, he was always very prompt in responding to my questions/concerns. He walked me through the entire process step by step and was so incredibly detailed and thorough in all aspects. I feel that he truly prepared me for what to expect as there were never a...ny surprises in my case. He’s very professional, honest, and straightforward. It truly gave me peace of mind knowing that my attorney was so experienced and knowledgeable in this field. Thanks to Mr. Tran, my case was discharged without any issues and was a very seamless process. I wholeheartedly recommend Tran Bankruptcy Law to anyone considering filing BK - you’ll be represented by the very best.

"Rex is a fantastic attorney. I've known him personally and professionally for many years. He has great skills in handling clients' concerns. He is also a very diligent attorney that does what he says he's going to do. This is important with bankruptcy law because the stakes are high. There is a lot of bankruptcy lawyers that don't do what needs to be done in a timely manner, but Rex is not one of those types. Rex is a stand up and disciplined attorney with a military background that you can trust."

"I endorse this lawyer. Rex and I worked together at one of the largest bankruptcy firms in the country. While Rex was a managing attorney at the firm, I would often go to him for advice on challenging legal issues. Because of his knowledge and experience, Rex could always help me find a good legal solution. Rex is also patient and understanding, which is important when working in the bankruptcy filed. In addition to being a great attorney, Rex also serves our country in the United States Army Reserves.I would highly recommend him."
