Ms. Kramer was very nice and explained the procedure very efficiently. She really put me at ease to where I didn't have to worry or stress about anything. She took care of everything and answered any questions I had with certainty. She also followed up after every meeting to make sure I was satisfied and understood everything. I'd recommend her to anybody thinking about bankruptcy.

Kimberly is a breath of fresh air! I was so scared to even think of bankruptcy, but she took the time to explain the whole legal process and even helped me to create a budget to live by. I can't thank her (or her staff) enough for helping me through the roughest time in my life. I felt the weight lifted off my shoulders immediately! Would highly recommend Kimberly Kramer and her legal team!

I searched for an attorney for a long time to help me with my complicated Ch 7 case. From the start, Kimberly was kind and patient. She never once judged me and she made me feel calm and I knew instantly I was in good hands. Kimberly was extremely responsive to any questions I had. I would highly recommend Kimberly and her firm to anyone!! I can’t thank her enough for everything she did to help me get through a very tough time in my life.

Kimberley has been an absolute godsend. I was in desperate need, and other law offices I contacted were fairly rigid in their pricing. Kimberley’s office was the only one who offered a realistic payment plan. She and her staff were always available to answer any of my questions, they made the steps to filing incredibly easy, and I felt supported through the entire process. If anyone is in need of a bankruptcy attorney, I wouldn’t send them anywhere else but here.

I should have contacted this woman a couple years ago! I was so afraid to go through with this and thought it would be a horrible mess. With Kimberly's help, this process was so so smooth and stress free. She's also amazingly helpful and doesn't make you feel ashamed of yourself, along with her staff. She makes you feel comfortable, and I loved her personality, it felt like I had known her my whole life! I have NEVER, in years, feel as relieved as I do now. I definitely recommend her, you will NOT REGRET it! So, thank you Kimberly Kramer, for helping me be able to start over with a fresh start as a single parent and get all of this weight off my shoulders. I feel like a brand new me.
