what am I looking for in a good bankruptcy attorney?

Great question.  There are many things to look for such as how long have they been practicing bankruptcy law?  Do they dilute their practice with other areas?  What groups do they belong to?  Are they certified specialists?  Do they give personal service, or pass your case along to associates or paralegals? My articles on hiring a bankruptcy attorney and why it's important to research your bankruptcy attorney may shed additional light on this subject for you.   Mark Markus has been practicing exclusively bankruptcy law in California since 1991.  He is a Certified Specialist in Bankruptcy Law by the State Bar of California Board of Legal Specialization,  AV-Rated by martindale.com, and A+ rated by the Better Business Bureau.
