Absolutely Outstanding Attorney

Lance has helped me my best friend, and my husband after being referred to me years ago by another friend. He made the bankruptcy cases as easy as possible with great communication skills timely paperwork and wonderful interpersonal skills. I love him! We continue to refer him to anyone who needs thi...s kind of help and would use him again if need be. Fair fees and overall empathic intelligent and capable.

Simply put: Lance is THE best attorney I have ever dealt with.

His charges are absolutely reasonable and tailored to your case. I greatly appreciated his candor and honesty, he provided a realistic assessment of my situation and outlined all the available options, ensuring I made informed decisions. His transparency and straightforwardness helped me navigate... the bankruptcy process with clarity and most importantly peace of mind. He had a very open line of communication and gave me confidence and reassurance throughout the entire process from start to finish. Special shout out for his exceptional preparation for the creditors meeting. Lance thoroughly prepared me for what to expect, and kept in touch during the hearing via text providing detailed instructions and addressing any concerns I had. His calm demeanor and confident representation during the meeting was commendable, alleviating much of my stress and nerves. His invaluable support during such a challenging time was much appreciated and needed. If you are debating whether to hire Lance vs. proceeding with the bankruptcy by yourself...trust me, you want and need Lance to be by your side throughout such a complex process!

AWESOME LAWYER

I found myself in a position where my only alternative was to file a bankruptcy. Lance met with me and explained every step very cleary. He was available by phone and email when I had questions. He told me how court would go. It happened just as he said. If your in need a great attorney for an afford...able price, Lance Lee is the way to go.

Highest Recommendation

Bankruptcy can have additional complications when you own your own business. After interviewing many attorneys, most that had retainers considerably higher than Mr. Lee, one of them referred us to an attorney that he believed had the knowledge and experience necessary to walk us through the complica...tions unique to our case: Lance Lee. From the onset, Mr. Lee clearly explained the issues and requirements. His thorough understanding of bankruptcy law and his ability to listen to our needs gave us immediate peace of mind that we had made the right choice. He left no stone unturned, and had us completely prepared for our filing and hearing. At the hearing, we watched many with attorneys that seemed completely unprepared for some of the questions the trustee asked, and even some that had not prepared proper inventories or had no idea of valuations of important property. However, in our case, we had already covered everything with Mr. Lee, and could answer every question asked by the trustee with clarity and confidence. When we left the hearing, my wife and I said over and over how thankful we were that we had chosen such a thorough, honest, and conscientious attorney. Because our attorney had taken the time to cover so much with us, we never felt exposed, never felt we had been left hanging, and we had many creditors that would have liked to have seen this happen in our case. If you are fortunate enough to retain Mr. Lee, you will go through one of the most trialsome life experiences with the best ally you could have--someone that absolutely knows the law, someone that is absolutely thorough, someone that will absolutely make sure you are protected. I have retained attorneys in the past. When I say that this attorney goes the extra mile, it is such an understatement that I am embarrassed to even use the cliche' regarding his services. Lance Lee is the best. Enough said.

Great Bankruptcy Assistance

We met with Lance Lee several times, but decided we couldn't afford his fees. For a chapter 7 bankruptcy, he charges $1,300--this does not include filing and online class ($70) fees. However, if the money had been available to us, we would have gladly paid him! He promptly responded to any questi...ons we had and explained every issue in simple terms we could understand. There were never any questions that went unanswered. We never walked away feeling confused or uncertain about the process.
