Great experience

My experience with Kristen was very different than expected. She was up front about issues that she spotted and honest about things that might cause trouble for me during my bankruptcy filing. She kept me informed about the process and explained things concisely. She turned something I was dreading i...nto a manageable experience.

Great Small Business Bankruptcy Attorney!

I never thought I would need a bankruptcy attorney but when the reession hit, my business just dried up. In an effort to wait out the economy, I sunk many of my personal resources into the business. When I couldn't deny reality any longer, I went and saw Kristen. She helped me sort through the tan...gle of finances - both business and personal. Though I know she was busy, she made me feel like her only client. Never, during the whole process, was I left with questions or wondering where we were in my case. I'm glad I chose Kristen and I wish I went to her earlier.

Great Bankruptcy Lawyer

Kristen Bargmeyer helped me when I needed it most. Though I recently moved to the Bay Area from out of state for a good new job, I had house in the prior state I was trying to sell from afar, had revently ended a long term relationship, and was desperately in debt. In fact, my wages were being garn...ished to a point where I could barely pay my day to day expenses not to mention my credit card payments and mortgage. My Chapter 13 with Kristen was a breeze. The wage garnishment ended, my payment to the trustee is affordable, and she helped me decide what to do with my house. She explained and helped me navigate the intersection between my bankruptcy and my ex. She did all this with sensitivity and forthrightness. Though she occasionally told me things I didn't want to hear, I always felt she was honest, ethical, and had my best interest at heart. If you need a Chapter 13, you should see her.

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.
