MEET STEPHEN

I have been practicing bankruptcy law on behalf of individuals and businesses since 1990. I worked for a small bankruptcy boutique firm and a large Sacramento commercial law firm before opening my own firm in 1997. I pride myself on crafting individualized solutions for all of my clients whether large or small. While in law school I served as a judicial intern for a bankruptcy judge.

I regularly represent consumers in Chapter 7 and 13 as well as businesses in Chapters 11 and 12. I also represent creditors (individual and institutional) and have represented trustees and other fiduciaries. I have also served as a State Court Receiver and disbursing agent in complex Chapter 11 cases.

Between 1998 and 2001, I was the Director of the Sacramento Valley Bankruptcy Forum, where I remain a member. In 2000, I had the privilege to serve as the President of the Bankruptcy/Commercial Law Section of the Sacramento Bar Association. I also was a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy Trustee from 1997 to 1998.

I am active in my community. I am a former President of the Davis Food Co-op and served on the Board of Directors for nine years. I have provided pro bono services for local non profits and Churches.

My office in downtown Davis offers easy access for Yolo and Solano County residents. I offer payment plans and weekend appointments for clients. I look forward to many more years of serving the Davis community.
