Excellent Experience

I contacted Diem and was immediately set up with a free initial consultation. Diem and her partner assessed my situation thoroughly and through their insight I’ve determined that bankruptcy is not the best choice for me. Although I’ve chosen alternatives to bankruptcy, had I not contacted Diem I may... have made a huge mistake. Rather than treating me like a number and pushing me through the system Diem and her partner gave me the insight I needed to make the best informed decision. If you are considering bankruptcy contact Diem and be assured you are in good hands!

Highly recommend!

Highly recommend! Diem is a great person and attorney. She is very knowledgeable in bankruptcy law and very understanding. She took the time to explain to me the process of bankruptcy and this helped me decide whether it would be a the right choice for me. She has a straightforward and no-nonsense at...titude but a great sense of humor! In the end I decided not to move forward with filing but the experience I had with Diem was awesome. If you are looking for a bankruptcy lawyer, contact Diem, you won't regret it!

The Lawyer I Recommend !

The negative stigma of bankruptcy caused me to out off filing for two years longer than I should have. I don't recommend doing that if you are over your head in debt, bill collectors are calling, and you aren't able to make your payments on time. But what I do recommend is calling a bankruptcy lawyer... asap and getting some good advice. Diem Duong was my lawyer. Her firm offer no cost consultations, so I took advantage of that. I met with Diem and it was obvious to her that filing for bankruptcy was my best option. As far as my bankruptcy it went well. It was easy and pretty painless. I thank Diem for that. She is trustworthy, responsive, knowledgeable, and she kept me informed and up to date on the status of everything. I can't say enough good things about her. If you need to file bankruptcy I recommend talking to Diem, I think you'll be glad you did.
