Excellent communication and professional service.

Mona worked hard to make a difficult situation as easy as possible. Excellent and timely communication. She worked hard to immediately stop my wage garnishments, and was also able to get garnished wages returned to me. This is my first experience hiring an attorney, and I am very happy that Mona was ...recommended to me. Thank you.

Chapter 13

Mona stepped in when my bankruptcy lawyer filed chapter 7. Mona quickly emailed me the documents I needed to close-out my Chapter 13 bankruptcy, free of charge! Thanks, Mona.

Good bankruptcy lawyer

Mona is currently my lawyer. She is helping me through my bankruptcy. Mona was very helpful answering my questions and explaining the bankruptcy process to me. I feel that I am going to be well represented when I go to court and would highly recommend her to someone looking for a bankruptcy lawyer

Exceptional Service

Ms. Gacutan was recommended to me by a close friend who had been a prior client. My friend raved about the helpfulness and caring professionalism she had experienced when preparing for her bankruptcy filing with Ms. Gacutan. She demonstrated exemplary professionalism and knowledgeability throughout ...our work together, and was responsive to the particular nuances of my situation. Her wealth of experience allowed her to be effectively strategic about a sensitive timing issue I was facing, and for every question I posed, her answers were extremely informative and grounding as she assessed the legal needs of my situation and recommended the best course of action. After one of the best initial consultation experiences I have ever had, I secured her services without hesitation and found that my stress dissipated immediately. Her expertise impressed and reassured me throughout a difficult and demanding situation. She demonstrated flashes of gracious humor throughout our work together, which kept me grounded and stress-free. I highly recommend this attorney if you are facing financial catastrophe and the reality of bankruptcy. She proved herself thoroughly trustworthy, as she and her colleagues communicated regularly and effectively as they guided me through the steps I needed to take, and followed up as promised, each and every time. I was more than adequately prepared and informed throughout, and I found myself far better educated about my financial situation and the available solutions going forward than I would ever have expected while facing the difficulty of filing for a chapter 7. Through a dark tunnel she was a light and I came out on the other side grateful for the assistance of Ms. Gacutan and her associates.
