Posted by anonymous | February 22, 2026 | Hired Attorney | Chapter 7 Bankruptcy

Three years, significant fees, no resolution

I initially sought legal assistance to file Chapter 7 bankruptcy. Instead, I was persuaded to pursue Chapter 11 for my company, even though I did not fully understand the difference between the procedures and relied entirely on professional advice. The case dragged on for more than three years. Du...ring that time, I continued paying legal fees, yet the matter was never completed. I suffered significant financial loss and prolonged stress throughout this period. When I began to question the situation, I consulted multiple independent attorneys. Their response was surprising — they expressed concern about the strategy used in my case and indicated that my situation could likely have been handled much more simply, significantly faster, and at a fraction of the cost — potentially within just a few months. Based on my experience, the path I was directed toward proved to be unnecessarily complex and extremely costly. It gave me the impression that the approach increased the duration and expense of the case rather than prioritizing the client’s best interests. I did not feel that my interests were placed first. As a result, I lost substantial money, years of time, and trust. For these reasons, I would not recommend hiring this attorney and strongly urge anyone considering this firm to seek independent legal opinions before signing any agreement

Lived Up To The Recommendations

Alla Kachan came highly recommended, and she absolutely lived up to it. During my consultation, she took over an hour to walk me through every step of the bankruptcy process, patiently and thoroughly. I was incredibly nervous going in—I thought filing would destroy my future—but Alla explained everyt...hing clearly and helped me understand exactly what to expect. I was overwhelmed with debt and struggling with anxiety, but Alla’s calm and knowledgeable approach gave me real peace of mind. What I appreciated most is that she wasn’t pushy at all—she encouraged me to take my time and think about it before making any decisions.

Outstanding work and dedication

I had the pleasure of working with Alla Kachan during a challenging financial situation, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. Alla provided exceptional guidance and critical insights that were instrumental in helping us reach a settlement. Her expertise not only streamlined the process but also ...helped us avoid filing for bankruptcy—a tremendous relief for everyone involved. Alla’s professionalism, depth of knowledge, and clear communication made a complex situation far more manageable. She was responsive, detail-oriented, and always had our best interests at heart. I’m truly grateful for her support and would confidently recommend her to anyone in need of smart, effective financial legal advice. Thank you, Alla, for your outstanding work and dedication!

Highly knowledgeable Team

I had an incredibly positive experience with The Law Offices of Alla Kachan. From the moment I reached out for a consultation to the final resolution of my case, the entire team was professional, knowledgeable, and truly committed to achieving the best possible outcome for me. What stood out most ...was their thorough understanding of the legal process and their ability to communicate everything clearly and honestly. They walked me through every step, answering all my questions with patience and making sure I felt informed and supported throughout. I never felt like just another case — they genuinely cared about my situation and fought hard on my behalf. Their attention to detail, strategic thinking, and dedication made a real difference in the outcome of my case. I’m extremely grateful for the outstanding service I received and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend The Law Offices of Alla Kachan to anyone in need of skilled and compassionate legal representation.

Awful Experience, Super Unprofessional

Drove almost 2 hours for an in person consultation that cost me $200 only to tell me the same information that was given on the phone. Then when I asked a few questions about the process and her retainer agreement, I was suddenly reccomended to a new lawyer and we "weren't a good fit". Super un...professional, the whole process and operation seemed a little sketchy from the beginning, but that took it to a whole new level. You'd think that a client who was doing his due dilligence and ready to do the work would be welcomed to a lawyer not a burden. Very dissapointed overall, just want this out there so someone else doesn't fall into the same pitfalls.

Our firm takes pride in offering honest and ethical consultations. The purpose of your in-person meeting was to review your case in more detail, and while it may have aligned with prior phone discussions, that does not negate the value or professionalism of the consultation itself. Regarding your questions about the retainer and process, our attorney gave straightforward answers. When it became clear that there was a misalignment in expectations, it was our professional obligation to recommend alternate counsel rather than proceed with a representation that did not feel mutually suitable. We understand that legal matters are stressful and emotions can run high. However, accusations of being “sketchy” are both inaccurate and unfair. We are fully licensed, transparent in our practices, and committed to serving our clients with integrity. While we regret that this experience did not meet your expectations, we stand by the professionalism and judgment exercised throughout. We wish you the best in resolving your legal matter. Sincerely, Alla Kachan
