Title: Exceptional Legal Service with a Personal Touch Review: I am incredibly grateful to have found Southern California Law Advocates for my bankruptcy case. Their professionalism, coupled with an unwavering dedication to their clients, is truly commendable. From the moment I contacted their office, I encountered kindness and a genuine willingness to help. The complexity of bankruptcy laws can be overwhelming, but Norma, the lead attorney, and Julie, her talented and patient paralegal were adept at simplifying these intricacies. They provided me with clear, concise explanations, ensuring I understood every aspect of my case. The entire process was handled meticulously, and I was kept informed at every step. The communication was flawless - they were always prompt in responding to my queries and provided timely updates on my case. Their proactive approach left no room for confusion or anxiety. What sets Southern California Law Advocates apart is their personal touch. They not only represented me legally but also supported me emotionally throughout this challenging phase. They acknowledged my concerns, validated my feelings, and reassured me, making me feel seen and heard. The outcome of my bankruptcy case has been overwhelmingly positive, thanks to their exceptional legal insight and expertise. The relief I feel now is indescribable. My financial burdens have been alleviated, allowing me to start afresh, all thanks to the tireless efforts of Norma and Julie. In conclusion, I cannot recommend Southern California Law Advocates enough. Their comprehensive knowledge of bankruptcy laws, combined with their empathetic approach, makes them the ideal choice for anyone navigating the murky waters of bankruptcy. Their services are worth every penny, and I am confident that anyone who chooses them for their legal needs will be as satisfied as I am.

Norma and staff was very professional, knowledgeable and resourceful. Filing bankruptcy is not the most uneasy feeling. Norma explained carefully the steps, stages in the processing and conclusion. I highly recommend her.

First of all, if you are reading this review, you are might be nervous, scared and wondering what is going to be your future. I get it, was there just like you are now. There is hope!!!! Before I got to talk to Norma, I actually talked to/interviewed around 10 local lawyers. There were some that answered immediately, and were ready to file for Chapter 7 or Chapter 13, without knowing anything about my financial situation. How can they be so eager to get you in a plan without the facts? Emails with contracts and retainers followed shortly. Some were really pushing the Chapter 13- they make more money. One lawyer suggested that I needed to buy a new car, with a monthly payment around $600. I was like, what? One lawyer, after the free consultation session harassed me for 3 or 4 days to sign the retainer – because “is the law”. No, nobody can push you to do so. And then, there is Southern California Law Advocates. To me, they really set themselves apart from any other firm and lawyer I talked to. Just by the notes in their blog, you can see Norma is different. I suggest you read the blog posts, and pay attention to each of the documents, scenarios that might apply to you. I got my free consultation. My initial questions answered. Signed the retainer. Completed the first questionnaire to see which would be the best option for me. You then have to sign the contract, and start the payments. Is up to you how you pay, monthly, lump sum. It is until you have paid everything upfront- at least for Chapter 7, then the real craziness start. Craziness, because now you are required to provide all kind of documents. So, be prepared. It is up to you to be in schedule. Nobody is going to chase you. If you want it, you have to put the time. If you miss your deadlines, the filing moves to the next month, and now newer documents are required. Make sure you are on top of things. Julie is the assistant and she works with you, providing your required target documents and deadlines. Julie is there to answer questions about documents and she is really helpful. There are times that you will need to talk to Norma, and for that be ready to wing it, as she calls when she has time. You never know when the call is coming. Norma will answer your questions and will prepare you for the forthcoming meetings. It is a stressful time, you worry about this and that, but working with Norma and Julie really made things easier. I would recommend Southern CA Law without hesitation. Good luck!

Norma and Julie are incredible. Julie, her assistant, was very understanding and helped me in gathering my information needed for Norma to proceed with my case and keeping me updated on my case. Julie was always joyful and a pleasant to talk with while going through the process and responded in a timely matter to all my questions, mostly the same day if not the next day for sure. Norma was incredible in answering all my so many questions and keeping me updated with the process and what to expect. Norma help ease all my uncertainties during this difficult time. Never did I think I would ever need to file for a bankruptcy. Both Norma and Julie are always positive and answered all my questions and I couldn't get through this process without there help and understanding. I would highly recommend Norma in representing you for any bankruptcy needs. Thank you so much Norma and Julie for all your help during this difficult time in my life and for the light at the end of the tunnel.
