First time filing for bankruptcy and Janine gave me the worst experience. She was flat out rude, non professional and confrontational at some times. I never met her in person due to covid. Everything was over the phone. There was a time where I made a mistake and she yelled at me and said "I don't have time for this" and hung up on me. I paid her for her time. I felt so disrespected so many times. There were several times where she gave me false information in regards to my case as if she were trying to sabotage me and I corrected her. It seemed as if she wasn't on my side and not trying to help me win my case. I don't know what she's going through in life but I hope she learns to treat her clients with respect while she's struggling.

Mrs. esquivel filed bankruptcy for me and my husband. She explained things to us very well. My sister used her to file her bankruptcy case too. As long as you schedule an appointment, you see her or someone at her office. Either Mrs.Esquivel or her assistant returned our calls in a timely fashion.

I went in to their office for a consultation and I hired her because she seemed very nice and professional. I paid her her attorney fees up front and whenever she needed money for an application fee i would go give it to her because she can't submit something without the fees. At the beginning it was really good they would call when ever they needed more paperwork or signatures and I would go down to the office. The problem started towards the very near end of my process when they just stopped calling me and giving me updates. It was very hard to get a hold of them thru the phone and even in their office. I would go to the office to try and get information about my case and it was always closed. When there was someone there I would try to make an appointment but they would tell me i couldn't make one with Janine because she never let them know when she would come to the office. That she just came in whenever and they wouldn't be able to tell me which day to go in. I was very upset because even if they didn't feel like finishing my case they could of communicated with me and let me know so I could of hired another attorney and not have me wasted money and time. Now my case is closed and I will have to pay another two thousand to file again plus attorney fees. They need to communicate better with their clients because to this day I still haven't heard anything from her office and the only reason i know my case is closed is because I called the National Visa Center to find out what was going on and they let me know. I just let it go because I got tired of trying to reach them but I do feel like I got scammed by them and they made me lose money.

I filed a chapter 13 bankruptcy with Janine in 2010. I met with three other bankruptcy attorneys before I decided to go with Janine. She took the time to explain how a chapter 13 worked and how I could get the second loan removed from my home through my bankruptcy. I only have a couple of months left before I complete chapter 13. The office staff is very nice to me every time I call. I am glad I had an attorney like Janine through my difficult financial times.

I was referred to the Adiuvo Law and met with Janine. I am very grateful for her understanding about my familys situation. She explained everything about the bankruptcy process in detail. The assistants and other attorneys at Adiuvo were always very nice to me when I kept calling their office with questions through out the process. I filed Chapter 7 and would use Janine again and am recommending her to my friends.

My husband and I walked into Janine's office after visiting two other local bankruptcy attorneys. Both of the other attorneys we had visited were rude and seemed so rushed. Janine was a breath of fresh air. She is a young attorney, but is EXTREMELY knowledgable. She made us feel extremely comfortable and she took the time to answer our questions in detail. Everytime I have called her, she has made time to answer our questions in detail. Our Chapter 7 case was filed and we had our meeting of creditors. Even the trustee told us we had chosen a good attorney. We are now waiting for our discharge =)
