I first contacted Michael when consulting legal advice about filing for bankruptcy from several attorneys specializing in this field. From the moment he picked up the phone, he was genuine and upfront about my case all the way until the very end when I successfully filed for a Chapter 7 with him as my attorney over a year later. You could tell instantly he was genuine in nature as he never gave off the sales-pitch tone commonly encountered when speaking to other lawyers in any domain of expertise, be it accounting, taxes, etc. Every time we spoke, you knew he took the time and due diligence to look into your case as one of his highest priorities and not as another pile of papers stacked on his desk with a name on it. This was evident when he was able to educate and inform me of all possible options and actions specifically tailored to my case that I could act upon with my personal best-interest in mind. Michael knows his stuff, gets it done, and, most importantly, he genuinely takes your case seriously, always keeping you well informed along the way. Definitely one of a kind.

Michael made the entire process of Chapter 7 very simple and stressless. He was always available personally to answer any of my questions over email and phone. After only a few months of hiring Michael, my case was completed successfully and I was finally debt free! His fees are also very reasonable. I highly recommend Michael Chekian as a bankruptcy attorney!

Michael Chekian truly saved my bankruptcy. I originally had another lawyer handle my case which was a mistake. The first lawyer only knew how to handle basic bankruptcy. When the case had an adversity charge placed against me, he new nothing and it cost me. I found Mr Chekian through a reference. This was the greatest save I could ask for. Mr. Chekian stepped right in and helped me settle the case. All I can say is thank you Mr Chekian and God bless you for helping me and my family!

I needed some help with a collection account. I was in a really tough situation, the creditor had a judgment, a garnishment order was in place and the creditor was very likely going to take 25% of my paycheck every time I got paid for the next several years. Needless to say, I was in panic mode. A friend recommended Avvo, so I went to the website and found Mike Chekian. I contacted Mike and had a brief discussion about my situation and Mike immediately put my mind at ease. He reassured me and told me that we could get through this. I hired Mike on the spot and it was the best money I've ever spent for Legal Services. Mike gave me solid advice and while he didn't guarantee a specific outcome, Mike hit a home run. Mike helped me avoid the garnishment, we settled for under 50% of the amount due and I received favorable repayment terms. Mike Chekian delivered and he did it it on a fixed fee and with the highest level of professionalism I've ever seen. I can enthusiastically endorse Mike for any bankruptcy or collection needs. He saved my financial life and I am extremely grateful.

Mike is truly a class Act attorney, saved me personally as well as my business from paying hundred of thousand dollars in legal fees. Highly recommend him

No one wants to go through a Bankruptcy. Many complex issues need to be considerd , not yhe least of which are ones own personal feelings of failure and self worth. Michael 's cool hand and calming manner helped to make this experience work. Not only is he knowlegeable , He finds the time to make the process make sense. He protects you and He does not make a big deal out of it. I have recommended Him to several of my friends and they have all had the same kind of experience. He is the best. If you need to go through this chapter of your life you will find no one better to be your guide.

I was referred to Michael from the "Los Angeles County Bar Association". I bumped into a a financial situation (primarily medical) and was afraid of the the entire process for bankruptcy. Day in and day out I had to worry. I was glad I spoke and met with Michael as he made the entire process smooth, easy, efficient and soothing for me. I had no doubt in his abilities and skill sets to get me through a tough time. Every question I had was answered and all my worries put the rest. Once again... thank you Michael! I appreciate the services and the advice you have offered me! I am also referring him to others as I have a friend who is also going through the same process, and his attorney hasn't even started the hearing process for him! He started before me and I already received my discharge! Great job Michael! Thanks again -R
