Christopher Jason Mercado

I have been working with Chris Mercado for the last 2-3 years on my Loan Modification, Mediation and Bankruptcy. Simultaneously, I have worked with 2 other local attorneys (supposedly with 20+ years' experience in the industry) around the same time on other cases. I can tell you the approach couldn't... be any different. One thing I would advice prospective clients when selecting for an attorney is to not only look for experience (it matters) but also look for the chemistry, personality and sincerity in wanting to help his/her clients. Chris displays the sincerity and genuinity in wanting to help his clients by giving you personal and tailored advice (even it means that you do nothing or wait it out before deciding to engage him further). Good deeds always come around and I have referred him to other friends who are looking for an experienced and trusted attorney. I regretted working with the other 2 attorneys. They are in the business to not only get as much money out from me, but giving me advice and promises that are not helping my case at all. I sensed that from the outcome resulting from working with those 2 supposedly experienced "clowns in suits", and finally decided to give Chris Mercado a try. The outcome couldn't be any different and he would give you advice and options that would benefit you the most, not how to string you along so as to get as much money out from you. Long story short - I am very satisfied working with Chris and couldn't recommend him enough to other people! It looks like Chris received 1 negative review on this board which is very unfair. I asked Chris about it. Not trying to play down the negative review but you have to take a vested interest in ensuring the best outcome for your case by being proactive yourself (e.g. submitting documents on time, following up with scheduled deadlines, etc). Attorney is human and not God. I think sometimes people forget that and would blame their attorney on negative outcome of their case which are not related to the performance of their attorney. Give him a try. I don't think you will be disappointed....
