Bankruptcy - Chapter 7

Dennis helped guide my wife and I through a very difficult time in our lives. He demonstrated professionalism, patience, and knowledge of law throughout the entire process. He answered all of our questions with easy to understand answers. My wife and I highly recommend Dennis to those looking for adv...ice and representation for bankruptcy.

Helped My Wife and I Get Back On Our Feet

After Hurricane Katrina, my wife and I suffered many financial difficulties culminating in moving to Washington State. We decided bankruptcy was the best avenue for us but did not know any lawyers in the area. Dennis came highly recommended and did not disappoint. He and his wife Chris were profes...sional, thorough and added a human touch to the process. Once again cannot recommend highly enough.

Posted by Jeanette | April 23, 2015 | Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

We felt totally supported and protected.

Mr. Burman handled our case in a timely and supportive manner. He and his staff were extremely knowledgable and helpful to us. He was with us every step of the way through this procedure and explained clearly our responsibilities. We would highly recommend Dennis Burman to anyone who needs a Chap...ter 7 filing.

Bankruptcy and debt lawyer | Oct 31

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. Dennis Burman is an extremely competent and reliable attorney. I have known Dennis 23 years during which time I have never seen him become angry or frustrated despite the high pressure and demanding nature of his busy bankruptcy practice. His skill as an advocate and his knowledge of bankruptcy law has been proven time and again over many, many years as one of several chapter 7 trustees that handle cases in the Western District of Washington. Dennis has been a standing bankruptcy trustee longer than I have been practicing law. His experience as a standing trustee coupled with his experience representing individual and business clients makes Dennis uniquely qualified to guide one through the bankruptcy process. Dennis has been involved in the bankruptcy process from every angle for many years (as Debtor counsel, as Creditor counsel and, of course, as Trustee). I never hesitate to recommend Dennis as the go-to attorney for anyone in need of personal or busin"
