I highly recommend Derek. He is honest about what he can or can't do pertaining to your specific bankruptcy situation. He is thorough and once you get him all the information he needs he gets the process moving FAST. From the hearing to the dismissal it was approximately 3 months. If you have any questions he answers them promptly, the process can get confusing for most of us. I was nervous and embarrassed to file bankruptcy but Derek reassured me we all fall on hard times. He is also affordable which really helps when you're having financial struggles.

I believe Derek is one of the best bankruptcy lawyers out there. I wasn’t disappointed in his performance and his ability to handle my Chapter 7 bankruptcy which went so smoothly. I highly recommend Derek for any bankruptcy needs.

From the very first phone call, Attorney Prosser handled my situation with compassion and professionalism. He is knowledgeable and made sure to explain all pertinent information in a way that was easy to digest and straight forward. He was also patient and responsive with any questions I had with helps ease the stress of navigating the legal world. At no point did I feel like just another case and as busy as they are, I can only imagine the dedication that must go into ensuring each client feels heard. I had a positive result with my case and I am forever grateful for Attorney Prosser and his team!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Our prices vary depending on the complexity of the case. However, cases that we consider "simple" are typically priced below our competitors.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Most of our initial review is done over the phone. With busy schedules for both myself and the customer, it is typically easier to conduct a one-on-one consultation over the phone. Once we've passed that hurdle, we either move forward with document submission electronically or in person. When the client's paperwork is ready, we conduct a thorough review and explanation with the client in our office to make sure the information is precise prior to filing.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I've been practicing bankruptcy law for the past 10 years. My experience in this field is vast, as I have represented debtors in chapter 7, 11, 12, and 13 bankruptcies. I also spent a substantial portion of my first 5 years of bankruptcy practice representing chapter 7 trustees in liquidating assets of a debtor's bankruptcy estate. That experience has given me the perspective of being able to analyze a client's case not only from their perspective, but also how it will be viewed by the trustee to whom their case is presented to.
