About Ryan
Biography
Thank you for visting my profile. Here at West Coast Bankruptcy Attorneys Kitty J. Lin and myself have filed over a thousand bankruptcy cases for residents of California. I was also formerly employed by David Burchard, the standing Chapter 13 Trustee for the San Francisco and Santa Rosa Divisions of the Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of California. I administered anywhere from 800 - 1000 cases during my employment. We do have the experience to make sure your case is handled properly. Our fees are also very reasonable for the personal service you will receive. We answer our phones personally and reply to emails usually the same day.
