Genser & Watkins

I unfortunately had to file for personal bankruptcy, and was seeking a good BK lawyer. My case was complex due to an unusual combination of income, assets, and the need to file individually while being married. I first contact two from personal referrals, but was not satisfied with either of them. Then I did my own search, found Len, and went for a consultation.

Beyond his extensive knowledge of the bankruptcy laws, as is expected, Len's greatest strengths are three:

1) he appears to be intimately aware of specific "pain points" that each trustee in the county seems to focus on, thus helping avoid a potentially contentious filing.

2) he grilled me extensively on every aspect of my finances to make sure he gets all the details right before the filing. Sure, it took longer and felt very awkward, but at the end, it ensured a smooth process post-filing. Having heard of cases where lawyers did not do such a good job and were caught by surprise during the 341, this is important.

3) he tells it like it is, and was able to steer me towards better decisions throughout the entire process, even when I was initially convinced I should do something else.

Beyond that, he was always able to calm me down when I started panicking, as going through a bankruptcy is never fun, and having someone be able to confidently and calmly answer irrational questions when emotions get a hold of you is a godsend.

I have already referred a couple of folks to Len and will continue to do so. He is worth every penny.

Dear Len,



I would like to thank you for an excellent job you have done for both my husband and I. It is a sigh of relief to know that we are protected under the bankruptcy law. It has been so stressful for many many months but now at least I know that we can start fresh. It will still be a struggle and can only hope we get back to the normal way of things.



We are very satisfied with what we feel is a personalize interaction between you, as our attorney and us, as your client. I am in awe on how all this quickly came into fruition, in less than a month! I'm glad we chose you from a list of many.



Sincerely,



A.
