Looking for an experienced Tacoma bankruptcy attorney?

I have been practicing bankruptcy law since 2004. I spent my first 15 years of practice in Minnesota.  Licensed in Washington since 2015, I joined the firm of Washington Law Group PLLC in 2019. I recently left Washington Law Group to open my own firm. I look forward to an opportunity to assist you finding the right solution to your financial troubles.  

My Approach to Bankruptcy Law

My approach to assisting debtors comes from years of experience.  I understand that this is a very difficult time for clients, so I treat each individual with compassion and understanding.  I evaluate the facts of your case to see which chapter of the bankruptcy code will work best for you.  And if other solutions would work better for you, I will let you know.  I have spent years assisting clients, creating educational content for lawyers and I have worked with the bankruptcy court in Minnesota on their Local Rules Committee. 

I have worked with regular people with simple cases and I have worked with many individuals that have more complex situations  

My Process

I believe that proper representation begins with gathering the proper and complete information needed to analyze your case. This process can be burdensome for both the client and the attorney, so I have designed an intake process that will assist in getting that information gathered as smoothly as possible.

My Goal

My goal is to get you through this process with as little stress as possible. I want to provide you with a solution that will get you relief as soon as possible. I understand that when you are drowning in debt it can be very stressful. Ask about different levels of assistance in getting me your documents. There are options available

My Values

I understand that every day can bring what seems like insurmountable challenges. Many of my clients have suffered from job loss, medical problems, divorce, custody battles and the list goes on. I am here to help you recover from some of the financial stresses that arise from these issues with dignity, compassion and respect. I want to see you come through this process better off than you were before!
