Chapter 7 Conversion

Laura inherited my case from my attorney when he retired and what a blessing that was. Within a couple of weeks of our first meeting, we were on our way to converting my Chapter 13 to a Chapter 7, resulting in my case being discharged. She was very professional, and yet easy to communicate with. I... have recommended her to two clients so far and will continue to do so when I have the opportunity. To conclude, she did a great job for me and I will always be grateful for her help!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
