Filing for bankruptcy was never something that I thought I'd need to do in my life. I've always been known for being sensible, responsible, and hard-working (all of the things society tells you that people who file for bankruptcy are NOT). So I had to swallow a fair amount of pride when life happened and I got in over my head in debt. Kristin and Nik removed any shame I was carrying from the first meeting, and the entire process was SO much less painful and stressful than I was expecting it to be. Their demeanor is professional, yet laid-back, making you feel completely supported and at ease. With the fresh start they gave me, I'm already more financially stable than I was 6 months ago and have had the freedom to start building a profitable new business. I am beyond grateful and would recommend them to anyone in need of their services in a heartbeat.
The New Chapter Law Group was absolutely wonderful to work with! I have to admit that I was terrified to even look into filing for bankruptcy. Nik and Kristin immediately put me at ease and answered all of my questions (and I had quite a few!). They very clearly laid out what had to be done at each step and were extremely friendly and knowledgeable. It turned out to be a very straight forward, simple experience. :)nnI completely trusted them to take care of everything that needed to be done on their end.nnI strongly recommend them to anyone who is considering filing for bankruptcy. They were fabulous!
Given that this was a big decision that would affect us for many years, we did our homework and were very thorough in the selection of our attorney. We were considering a Chapter 13, so we wanted a firm that we could develop a relationship with, and rely on throughout the entire process. Our first meeting was with Kristin. We were very impressed with her knowledge and experience, so we selected New Chapter Law Group to represent us through this journey. They are very informative, pragmatic, and responsive. We always receive courteous, compassionate service. We have received tenacious representation. We are very happy with our decision and strongly recommend New Chapter Law Group.
Making the decision to meet with Nik and Kristin was a tough one, as I'd always viewed bankruptcy as something that other people did who had spending problems or were looking for the easy way out. Perfectionist overachiever that I've been my entire life, I prided myself on having excellent credit and never asking for help, no matter what crisis life threw at me and how much I started to drown in debt. So I had to swallow my pride and was prepared for what I assumed would be judgment. Yet from the moment I sat down with Nik and Kristin, I felt nothing but relief. I was met with kindness, understanding, professionalism, patience. Everything except judgment. And by the end of that first meeting, it was clear that filing Chapter 7 was the right decision and a smart decision, and they helped me to see it as a new chapter rather than giving up. I had no hesitation in retaining them, and throughout the process they responded quickly to my questions and emails, accommodated every last-minute request to meet to drop off documents or payments, and laughed at some of my crazy stories. I am so grateful for their support and expertise, and feel like a weight has been lifted from my shoulders. I truly have a new chapter in life, have already begun rebuilding my credit by buying a new car, and am loving every minute of my new lease on life. Thank you, Nik and Kristin!
