James Louis Brunello

My former husband and I were involved in a complicated law suit with the Bankruptcy Trustees for the State of California, James Brunello and Karen Pine put together the facts of our case; their team supported our efforts professionally. Kate was very helpful; I have been in the office dozens of time...s. I always felt welcome and comfortable. James & Karen are an amazing team and lay out your case so clear there cannot be a mistake as they cover every angle. I wished I knew them when I filed Bankruptcy the year prior. We had a free/clear home to lose; Jim & Karen prepared such a defense of life facts that the Judge eagerly listened to our case and settled in our favor. Jim & Karen saved us our initial investment of $300k. We gladly refer anybody we know to their firm.

I have worked with Jim on two lawsuits. He handled them professionally with great skill. Both worked in my favor. I have referred him several cases which he won and/or settled. He has worked on probate disputes, real estate law and mediations for clients of mine. He is a great litigator, arbitrator a...nd can get cases settled. Jim and Karen will represent you like you are their only client. I will continue to refer all people who need law work to Jim and Karen.

Unfortunately we are current clients of Mr, Brunello's office and have been trying to get our BK taken care for over 2 years now. Their secretary doesn't return calls, is not friendly in any manner, isn't helpful in one bit. They have no sense of urgency even when your are getting lettings saying tha...t companies are now going to garnish your wages and pension. When you drive to the office to find out what is going on the secretary acts as if you are inconviencing her and snaps at you when you ask what else needs to be done since you can't get a phone call back to find out where things are at. I have never been so frustrated and stressed from a lwayers office that I paid money to. If you are wanting a somewhat stress free BK then DO NOT use James Brunello and his office.
