Awesome Attorney who cares about their client

Attorney Eliot Jessop handled my foreclosure defense. As a result I was able to save my home from the greedy banks. My home was bought in the Bush Dubya Years and I got duped into a Subprime loan that ballooned my mortgage payments that almost led me to lose my house because I could not keep up w...ith the high mortgage payments. Attorney Eliot was able to invalidate my subprime loan and save my house for my family. Thank you Attorney Eliot. My family owes you our deepest gratitudes.

Knows his stuff

According to our experience Mr. Jessop is a very skilled lawyer who goes above and beyond for his clients. He obviously knows the law, rules and regulations and court procedures, and knows how to help people stay afloat in the legalese sea. Just one conversation and one filed motion after our f...irst appointment we already had our wrongfully blocked thousands of dollars saved, as he got our funds released. He is very professional, and he calls and keeps us regularly informed of the status of our case. He doesn't hesitate to spend his time to explain legal jargon to us common mortals and always gives us a description of different options before we make a decision for the further course of action. He's knowledgeable, he fights for the little guy, and he treats people with respect. I highly recommend him.

No one better for foreclosure defense

I have 3 homes in foreclosure due to divorce .. business loss etc.. extensive loan modification processing times.. all are rentals. Eliot and his partner Gershon took these on with out a problem. kept me informed... REASSURED me...and low and behold TWO look like they are being "vacated'.. and the o...ther one is being extensively delayed to allow me time to rebuild. Reasonable cost. I do not have to go to court..I am kept informed. Low stress. Perfect. I HAD tried other 'foreclosure defense attorneys'.. no one else knows what is going on.. other attorneys delay.. Eliot Jessop and Gershon Kulek FIGHT BACK and are WINNING. Only ones in Chicago area doing this.

Sorry to Say the Truth

Sorry to say that it is true. This lawyer gives you the impression that he is going to give you the best service, then after you pay him, he or his wife who was acting as his assistant never call you back. Probably because they work so slow and are apparently so unorganized that they have no results... for you. Now they have this other poor girl acting as receptionist who sounds like she's drowning in phone calls she cannot handle. She takes down your name and number but states that she doesn't work for either of them and so she doesn't know why they can't return a call. Yes, this is a joke of an office and law firm. Cannot recommend this lawyer to anyone unfortunetly. .

NEVER NEVER NEVER USE HIM.

First off he doesn't appear to know anything about law. He never returns your phone call after you pay him. He works in a shoe box office with 12 other attorneys or so, and the secratary to them is horrible. He never answers the phone, and you cant even leave him messages on his cell because the m...ail box is always full. He is so unorginized its a joke. In addition to all of this he is so not reliable and will lye to you about court dates and outcomes.....Not skilled, Not Trustworthy, He is def. an ambulance chaser. Joke of a law office,
