Highly Recommend!

Taryn assisted me with a difficult situation taking my elderly father through bankruptcy. She was efficient, knowledgeable, and very caring in a delicate situation. There were complicated schedules to fill out, limited information to go on, and Taryn was extremely helpful. She walked me through it ev...ery step of the way. I highly recommend her!

bankruptcy made easy

Taryn and her team were top notch. I truly could not have asked for a better attorney. She is caring, compassionate and extremely competent. The entire process of filing for bankruptcy from start to finish was painless and expedient. While I hope to never go through the process again, I would gladly ...use her services in the future.

Hire her she is amazing!

Taryn was extremely helpful in navigate some potential bankruptcy issues and to help understand a lawsuit that could have happened. I would absolutely hire her!

Professional, Skilled, Motivated, Friendly, Easy Going!

Taryn was the fourth attorney I interviewed to manage my bankruptcy. I met with her and discussed that I was $550K in debt, the majority of which was IRS back taxes. I had spent a couple of years educating myself, and though Taryn doesn't specialize in IRS tax bankruptcies, she was MUCH more knowle...dgable than any of the other attorneys that I interviewed. In the areas she didn't know, she took it upon herself - no expense to me - to educate herself on current affairs in regards to these matters. After hiring her, the process was painless. She has a helpful staff, it was easy to get together all the materials needed to get the filing in place. She attended the 341 meeting with me, and was fun and delightful and professional throughout the process. If you have a bankruptcy - big or small - I highly recommend Taryn to be there by yourside like she was mine. My successful discharge was sent to me today! Thank you Taryn!

Highly recommend

Taryn was amazing. I interviewed 2 other bankruptcy lawyers prior to hiring Taryn. She was hands down the most knowledgable in her field. She was an amazing support for a very difficult situation. If you need representation and want the best, give her a call.

Relationship: Co-worker

"We hired Taryn because she is smart, insightful, and personable. She has a strong academic background and a good foundation in litigation from her time at Williams Kastner. We think she is going to be a star! Taryn understands our clients needs. Having worked for several years as a social worker has given her a special understanding of the problems faced by people in financial distress. Although she is still relatively new to the practice of law, she possesses wisdom and common sense beyond her years."

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
