Great attorney in difficult season

Rex took over our bk case when our initial firm closed. He was available to us 24-7. I can't recall getting his voice mail once even when we moved to the east coast. He was able to get our monthly payment to the court lowered when our income changed and we paid off our debt ahead of plsn. Highly ...recommend!

Commitment to Quality of Service

The Law Offices of Chen & Tran picked up the torch when our initial attorneys decided to withdraw from the practice of bankruptcy within the first year of filing our case. We only qualified for BK Chapter 13 reorganization and were faced with a five-year repayment plan. Rex Tran always seemed to ma...ke himself available to answer our questions even after business hours. When our financial circumstance changed, and not for the better, Mr. Tran motioned the court for a reduced plan which allowed a little breathing room to complete the repayment plan. Having attorneys see us through every step of the way made all the difference. We cannot express how much we appreciate the hard work and dedication to our case provided by Mr. Tran of Chen & Tran. Thank you.

A God-send

Filing Chapter 13 Bankruptcy was the hardest thing we've had to do. When we started the process in 2010 the firm that we had hired and paid ended up going out of business, then we were sent to another firm that ended up filing for bankruptcy themselves. Fortunately, our case was sent to the the Law O...ffices of Chen & Tran. In a panic and left without a lawyer, we called and spoke to Rex Tran and without hesitation, he agreed to meet with us even though it was a holiday, July 4th. He did not push us to retain their services, instead, he took the time to explain the process and what to expect down the road, he answered all our questions and we knew right there and then that he was an honest and caring man and that we finally found a lawyer who we can trust. Rex Tran and Michael Chen restored our faith in lawyers. Yes, there are honest and caring lawyers left in this world, and you can find them in the Law Office of Chen & Tran. God bless you both and thank you for all the times you have responded to our questions and calmed our concerns. We are finally done with our Chapter 13 BK process and we are so thankful for all that you have done for us. Words cannot express how blessed and grateful we are for having met you. Thank you!

"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."

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."

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
