MR. FERNANDEZ WAS SOLID IN HIS COUNSEL AND HE AND HIS TEAM PERFORMED ON MY BEHALF IN A PROFESSIONAL AND SATISFYING MANNER. IT WAS NOT EASY TO DEAL WITH ME, I'M SURE. BUT EVEN WITH MY CONSTANT INQUIRIES AND CONCERNS, I WAS ALWAYS REASSURED AND TREATED WITH RESPECT. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THE LAW OFFICE OF LAZARO E. FERNANDEZ, APC., AS THE ONE TO HANDLE A BANKRUPTCY. IT'S A TOUGH ROAD TO GO DOWN, BUT AT LEAST WITH A GOOD ATTORNEY YOU FEEL BETTER!!

Mr. Fernandez and his staff were excellent. It was an extremely stressful time for me as I had just completed a loan mod after 2 years, was laid off of a job of 15yrs and felt totally out of control. They had an understanding of what I was going through and helped every step of the way to make it as smooth as possible. I was in and out of court in no time at all. My BK was release in 3 months! I would HIGHLY recommend Lazaro Fernandez!

Lazaro E. Fernandez and staff are very professional and helpful in all aspects of the bankruptcy procedure. I originally filed Chapter 13 successfully with Mr. Fernandez then due to changes in my circumstances I filed for a Chapter 7 conversion. Mr. Fernandez and staff were perfect through both bankruptcy filings. Thank You. I realized how great a job they did and value I got when an acquaintance of mine mentioned how unhappy he was dealing with his his BK lawyer.

Laz and his staff are the best. Only took a few months from the start of the process until the BK was discharged. You won't be disappointed!

Lazaro was friendly, accommodating, thoroughly knowledgeable and endlessly patient with our many questions about Chapter 7 and 11. He has a complete understanding of bankruptcy law and explains your options in great detail. He knows the legal ramifications and strategies, the paperwork and procedures and guides you through the process step by step. He's patient, knowledgeable and excellent. I highly recommend Lazaro. Absolutely a Ph.D.-level attorney for a clean, successful bankruptcy.

The value for my money that I received was excellent because after I started my bankruptcy with Mr. Fernandez I began a mortgage modification and put the bankruptcy on hold. It took a year to get the modification approved. When I resumed the bankruptcy, Mr. Fernandez did not charge me any additional fees though in many ways we seemed to start the process all over again. Also, I appreciate that Mr. Fernandez took the time to speak to me himself the few times I felt that only he could help.

Laz and his staff do what they say they will do, when they say they will do it, for the price they said they would do it at, which unfortunately is rare these days. On top of that, he and his staff put us at ease during an obviously very stressful period in our lives. Laz and his staff are the best.

About Client Rating
About Peer Rating

Welcome to Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review, a new ratings service that allows you to view and provide feedback on a lawyer or law firm on service and relationship qualities such as Communication Ability, Responsiveness, Quality of Service, and Value for Money.

Determining a Rating

The Client Review Rating is determined through aggregation of validated responses. This compilation of Client Reviews translates to a numerical rating and associate descriptive term on a scale of 1 -5. 1 being lowest as "Rated" and 5 being highest as "Preeminent".

  • 4.5-5.0 Preeminent
  • 3.0-4.4 Distinguished
  • 1-2.9 Rated

Martindale-Hubbell uses a third-party resource to validate that the respondent is a living person, but cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship, which in many cases is confidential. Clients must affirm that they are a client of the lawyer or firm identified for review at the time of the completed Client Review.

The Reviewers

Those who complete Client Reviews are clients of law firms who hired a lawyer within the last year, whose matter is not pending, and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be of any type from in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners to private individuals, and even sometimes another lawyer in a different jurisdiction.

Anonymity

Client Reviews are anonymous and reviewers' identities are not published; however a summary of basic demographics will be part of the display of responses.

Why do we collect demographics as part of the review?

Those who are researching a lawyer or law firm like to see that there are other clients who might be "like them". This is valuable information contributing to the decision-making process of hiring a lawyer.

Martindale-Hubbell's role

Martindale-Hubbell facilitates the process of Client Review by gathering responses, validating them and aggregating results for display online. The content of the responses are entirely from reviewers, the clients of the firm or lawyer.

It is important to note that Martindale-Hubbell does not undertake to develop Client Reviews for all firms and lawyers. Therefore, the fact that a firm or lawyer has not been reviewed should not be construed unfavorably. Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review over which Martindale-Hubbell exercises no editorial review or control.
