Erik Severino is an exceptional bankruptcy attorney who truly cares about his clients. My fiancée consulted with several attorneys, and most of them seemed more interested in getting her money than providing honest advice. Erik, however, was different. He was upfront and transparent from the start, advising her to hold off on filing bankruptcy because it wasn’t in her best interest at the time. His honesty and integrity were a breath of fresh air, and it was clear that he prioritized her well-being over making a quick buck. If you're looking for a trustworthy attorney who will give you genuine advice and put your best interests first, I highly recommend Erik Severino. You won't find anyone better.

Erick Severino is amazing! I initially went with a different attorney who took my money and never ended up filing my case. It was difficult to trust another bankruptcy lawyer, but after reading Erick's reviews, I knew he was the right choice for me. When I called him, he was genuine and sincere about my situation. He even advised me that it might be in my best interest *not* to file. It was refreshing to receive real advice from an attorney who wasn’t just trying to get my money. Thank you, Erick, for your honesty, integrity, and solid advice. I wish you and your firm continued success. If you’re looking for an attorney who truly works for his clients and is upfront and honest, Erick Severino is your guy!

I went to see Erik Severino at the beginning of last year for a chapter 7 bankruptcy. I wanted to wait until the process was fully completed before I did my review. Since it was my first time I was super nervous and scared. Scott was helping me for the most part. You can still email Erik questions as well and he responds very quickly. They were both knowledgeable, patient and responsive. I had so many questions since it was my first time and they answered all of them. They helped me through everything and reassured me. The paperwork was done very well. I have no issues even from this day. I really recommend their services. They are very caring, good and trustworthy. They get the job done. The payment plan was also excellent as well. Thank you for helping me out!

Any Law firm can sign a case up, but will that firm give your matter the personal attention it deserves? Will that firm truly fight to the bitter end? Will they deliver superb results? Well, I can tell you that I have worked in the legal field for two decades with the worst, somewhat horrible, and simply great firms where the record speaks for itself. The Reinken Law Firm stands out as exceptional as I have been personally represented by them. The services I received were simply life changing. To experience greatness go with this super law firm.

I don't even know where to begin. It's now been a little over a year since my husband and I made the call to Hallaq Law. It was the BEST decision we made and a huge burden was lifted! It was the end of 2022 and we were in so much debt after going from a 2 income household to 1 due to the pandemic. We thought we'd be able to catch up on paying our bills that was accumulated but we were stuck. I vividly remember googling Law Firms in my area and Hallaq Law was at the top of the list. After reading the reviews, my husband and I discussed our options and made the call. It took us a while to finally get the ball rolling, but Brian and Diem walked us through the whole process and was always available when we had questions. It's long over due, but I wanted to THANK Brian and Diem for their guidance during the whole process. Look no further, Brian and Diem are the best and we can't thank them enough.

My son entered this with so much fear, because he didn’t know his rights as a father. After some research, I scheduled the consultation, we met with Ms Alishia and I knew immediately that she was my son’s lawyer. Ms Alishia was patient with us, thoroughly explained his rights as a father, answered all of our questions and listened to us vent and express our concerns. She was very informative and always professional, even at times when we became impatient. There was never a day or time that we couldn’t contact and communicate with her, she was always available and gave her undivided attention to the case. My son felt heard! I am truly grateful to Ms Alishia for her knowledge and expertise and highly recommend her services. In the end my son was granted all of his requests.

As a client of Steve's for the past 3 years, I have had the privilege of witnessing his exceptional legal skills, dedication, and professionalism firsthand. Steve is not only an accomplished attorney, but also a remarkable individual who possesses a depth of knowledge that was advantageous for our specific real estate situation. His analytical thinking and problem-solving abilities allowed him to out-maneuver our adversary with ease. I was consistently impressed by his attention to detail and his ability to communicate complex legal concepts in a way that is accessible and understandable. One of Steve's greatest strengths is his commitment to his clients. He listens attentively to their needs, advocates fiercely on their behalf, and ensures that they are well-informed throughout the legal process. His ethical standards are unwavering, and he approaches each phase with integrity and transparency. Given his strong legal background, exceptional communication skills, and unwavering commitment to his clients, I am confident to recommend Steve Sico as a valuable asset.

Top Questions to Ask a Lawyer

When meeting with a lawyer for the first time, it's important to ask the right questions to understand their expertise and determine if they're the right fit for your legal needs. Here are some top questions to consider:

  1. What experience do you have with cases similar to mine?
    Ensure the lawyer has relevant experience in the specific area of law pertaining to your case.
  2. How do you charge for your services, and what are the estimated costs?
    Understand the fee structure, including hourly rates, flat fees, retainer fees, and any additional expenses.
  3. What potential outcomes can I expect from my case?
    While no lawyer can guarantee results, they can provide an assessment of possible scenarios based on their experience.
  4. What is your approach to handling cases like mine?
    Learn about their strategy, whether they prefer negotiation, mediation, or litigation.
  5. Who will be working on my case?
    Find out if the lawyer will handle your case personally or delegate tasks to other attorneys or paralegals.
  6. How will you communicate with me throughout the process?
