There is always that saying, you get what you pay for, and the staff and Mr. Fear was worth every penny. Kayla was a pleasure to work with and kept me up to date on every step they took as well as being keen to detail on all the documents needed for my case. Mr. Fear sat with me and detailed ever...

Let’s all be honest, bankruptcy is never anything anyone plans to have to go through. In my case, it was a personal and emotional low point in my life, and the last thing I wanted to do was ask anyone I knew personally for their advice. Bankruptcy is a very private matter that I am not proud I had to...

Peter Fear, Gabriel Waddell and the entire staff were very kind, courteous and professional. They listened to my situation and provided the best approach to take. They were very thorough with the paper work and comforting during court. Consequently, everything went very smooth.

Thank you so much Mr. Fear and staff for all of your assistance with our case. Everything was explained to us and the lines of communication never failed. We were kept informed of what was going on and if we encountered issues we didn't understand, they were so patient and explained. They allowed us...

The bankruptcy process is daunting, overwhelming, and has the propensity to make you feel like life couldn't get much worse. Let's face it, no one goes into it because everything's going perfectly. From the moment we started this, though, Peter Fear and the staff there made us feel comfortable and re...
"Peter has established a great reputation in the legal community. That reputation has been built from a great knowledge of the law in conjunction with wisdom and patience in walking people through how best to resolve their financial situation. You will not find a better attorney to help you through tough financial times."
"I met Peter Fear as opposing counsel in a trial and he left a lasting impression: diligent, congenial, yet zealous in advocating for his client and their rights. Since that time I have sent dozens of clients to his office as he is very talented in bankruptcy matters. His specialization has become more and more focused, and for larger bankruptcy matters I note that my clients consistently return with enthusiastic reports about Peter's straight-forward, intelligent and careful look at not only the obvious options, but some of the nuances that many other practitioners would likely miss. I know of (and in some matters have worked with) the top 5 bankruptcy attorneys in Fresno, and Peter is undoubtedly my favorite of these 5."
"Peter is quite simply the foremost authority on bankruptcy I know. In addition to that, Peter is a great resource for fellow attorneys not only for his knowledge of the law, but for his savvy marketing tactics. I highly respect and admire Peter, and suggest him for anyone looking into bankruptcy relief."
