Verified ClientConsulted Law firm 2025-2026My experience with Cheryl Bergain Law Office was very enlightening. It brought me a sense of relief knowing that my personal circumstances could be resolved. She wasted no time to collect information to provide herself insight of all angles to assist me to the best of her ability. Cheryl spoke in a respectful manner and most importantly, I was not treated in a condescending manner. I was educated on the different options I DO have and explained in simple terms, with great detail. Never did I feel swayed to choose bankruptcy, if anything I was able to come to MY OWN conclusion on how it would benefit me. I imagined this process would be dreadful - however my perception has changed. Good things do come in time, and if you are patient and willing to wait to have a consultation with her - it would not be a waste. Many thanks to Cheryl and the firm! -C.M.

Verified ClientConsulted Law firm 2020-2025My husband and I filed Chapter 13 Bankruptcy with Cheryl Bergian 5 years ago. It was a hard decision, but we knew we needed help to get our finances in order. Cheryl and her assistant Nicole helped us along the way in getting our paperwork ready and were so professional with their expertise. It is a very humbling experience but really allowed us to see where we went wrong and gave us the guidance and tools to make better financial decisions. We liked the choice of filing Chapter 13 so we were able to make monthly payments to pay off our outstanding debt. I feel better knowing that we did pay our creditors over time. We are very appreciative of Cheryl and Nicole and truly feel if you are in a tough spot financially and don't feel like you can dig yourself out, they are a wonderful resource and will help you along the way.

Verified ClientConsulted Law firm 2020I am SO HAPPY that I finally called Cheryl! What a load off my mind. I made the mistake of thinking I could do everything myself without hiring an attorney and I filed pro se. I spent countless hours stressing and filing out paperwork. After my 341 meeting, I was overwhelmed and devastated thinking I had really screwed things up. I then reached out to Cheryl’s office through their website and I had an email reply from her within hours. She was able to fit me in for a phone call that afternoon! She was kind and patient, and super helpful. I can’t express the relief I felt finally getting real answers and advice that I could trust. DO NOT BE AFRAID to give her a call! She has free telephone consultations so you have nothing to do lose. I am forever grateful for that phone call. Thank you, Cheryl!!
