Our Clients Speak
Several years ago, when almost all Americans were being impacted by the economic downturn. I needed to file a chapter 11 business reorganization to save approximately five million dollars in equity investment in a real property that I owned in Southern California.
Stephen Harris, business-bankruptcy lawyer in Reno, Nevada successfully filed the chapter 11 reorganization.
He also was able to force an acceptance of my primary-secured-creditor. This allowed me additional time to profitably sell the property.
I would recommend Stephen Harris and his staff in filing any kind of business chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganization proceeding, given their high level of expertise and fairness in this regard.
I was fortunate to have been referred to Mr. Harris only 2 years ago. I owned a commercial building that housed my Medical Spa & Salon for the previous 10 years. I was paying my mortgage payments regularly and on time, however, the bank foreclosed because of a balloon payment that came due.
Mr. Harris was different; he calmly and with great knowledge explained to me in detail that I didn’t need to go through an expensive bankruptcy proceeding. I was so thankful that he was forthright enough to not simply take my money when there were alternatives.
I ended up closing the business and eventually sold the building to the bank’s satisfaction. Had it not been for Mr. Harris’ guidance and help the experience would have been much more negative and emotionally draining. Thank you, Steve, for your caring and sincere advice; I highly recommend his services.
My family’s business needed reorganization because of mounting creditor claims and a downturn in business revenue. The business consisted of primarily manufacturing and foundry work, with several millions of dollars owed to creditors, both secured and unsecured.
Stephen Harris, bankruptcy lawyer in Reno, Nevada and his staff; Norma and Hannah worked efficiently and effectively to achieve a chapter 11 plan of reorganization in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court. Our family business is now successful and paying its creditors.
Although I hope never to use Stephen Harris’ services again involving business bankruptcy reorganization, if we had to, we would use him on a moment’s notice. He is fair, approachable and pragmatic in pursuing business issues in the United States Bankrupt Court.
