Atty. Russell Cloon, Ottawa, Franklin County, Kansas, USA

Summary

I am a consumer bankruptcy attorney. I was previously located in Baldwin City, KS but in August of 2017 we relocated to our new office in Ottawa. I have filed well over 3,000 consumer bankruptcy cases (Chapter 7 and Chapter 13), and I think the only other Kansas lawyers who have filed more than that are all deceased (but I could be wrong).

Education

University of Kansas School of Law

J.D. | Law

1986 - 1989

Nothing for which the statute of limitations has not expired.

Honors: Biggest honor was that I worked my way through law school rather than saddling myself with thousands of dollars in student loan debt. I was orphaned by the age of 16, so I didn't have wealth parents to foot the bill. Otherwise, I barely escaped with my life.

Activities: annoying my professors, making fun of brown-nosing Law Review rats, trying to study while working the midnight shift.

University of Kansas

B.S. | Business Administration

1973 - 1986

I believe I hold the record for longest time spent from 1st enrollment to degree. After my sophomore year, I took a break to spend 2 tours of duty in the US Army, as well as run a small business after my honorable discharge. Eventually, I went back in 1984 to finish up.

Honors: 99th percentile GMAT, bartender at the Mad Hatter.

Activities: Alpha Tau Omega fraternity (before the charter was revoked for hazing violations).
