Read More- Clifford FPeter Zooberg is absolutely one of the best BK lawyers I met in my long decision to finally make the choice to file. I originally came across him from doing a google search and the reveals were off the charts. Very professional as well reliable with keeping me updated about everything happening throughout my case. He was able to answer all my questions and there was a lot, you definitely wont find another lawyer that is outstanding with his results and determination to help you and get you the results everyone wants. I would give him 1000 stars if it was possible. Thank you so much Peter!

- Kerri MMy husband and I had to file BK after COVID and him being furloughed. We tried for several months but unfortunately one income just didn’t meet our financial burdens. Just moving to the area, I googled attorneys. Peter had high reviews so we made an appointment. He was always very down to earth, non judgmental, and helped us with the best choices we had. He gave us a personal cell phone and we had to message him a few times with questions and he would always respond. Understanding that he is very busy, it might not be right away, but he did get back to us. After our court hearing (which was done via telephone), he called to make sure we did not have any more questions. Furthermore, he text us while we were eating dinner to tell us that our case was signed and should be discharged within a couple of months. It’s already a very hard decision to come to and take a huge hit to your pride to file BK, but Peter made it much more bearable. Thank you!!
