Lee R Zeidman

Going through bankruptcy is very scary. I lost a business with a lot of personally guarantees totaling debts amounts in the millions of dollars. When we went under I had no means of ever paying those debts back. With Lee, he really made the process not only easy, but he took the fear and worry out... of the process. He was there every step of the way. The process was simple and he was always there to answer any questions and to stand up for me against creditors. I highly recommend Lee as an attorney if you are going through the extremely difficult process of bankruptcy. I live in the City of Chicago and my last name is Geraci, however making the trip to Skokie and not choosing on common family name was the best choice I made during this process.

I was referred to Lee for my bankruptcy case. At the initial meeting he explained the whole process in detail and made me feel at ease in what is a nerve wracking situation. Any time I had a question or concern regarding my case he was able to answer and reassure me. I am very grateful for his hard w...ork!

Lee has proved to be the best lawyer at multiple occasions and I now consider him our “family lawyer”. I strongly suggest him to all of my family, friends and relatives. He has a LOT of knowledge and can handle anything – may it be bankruptcy, loan modifications or employment issues and will fight ...hard for justice. Lee is very professional, answers emails within couple of hours (at the latest, usually instantly) and is very calming. The best thing about Lee is that he is up front – does not give false hope – and clearly advises what is going to be the outcome – in a VERY Calming way. I greatly appreciate this quality of his as I have worked with some other lawyers who give false hope which results in emotional trauma when a decision outcome is opposite of what was advised. This is the best quality of Lee. My family and I are eternally grateful for his service and I hereby strongly recommend Lee Zeidman without hesitation.

What started as a simple bankruptcy quickly went south when I was confronted with a difficult trustee. I was riddled with anxiety over the issue while my attorney remained calm. He helped to ease my fears by assuring me that we could and would get it done; confronting any issue along the way. I am no...t sure why my trustee believed I had additional assets but I am glad that Lee remained calm and diligent in his insistence on the state of my affairs. In bankruptcy you are personally copied on all legal proceedings, so every time I received a notice I went into a panic. I am sure I tested my attorney's patience but he never displayed that when dealing with me. What seemed like a daunting process was easily navigated by Lee because, simply put, he knew what he was doing. He calmly and consistently explained the process and did not waste my money on trivial matters. When the trustee asked for additional information I did exactly as Lee advised and watched him handle the rest, Due to the trustee's inquisition my bankruptcy took longer than I anticipated, though it finally ended in my favor and without additional expenses! While I hope to never file bankruptcy again, I will certainly use Lee for other matters.

Lee has represented me in court for various types of cases divorce,bankruptcy and guardianship. He has been very knowledgeable and effective in all matters. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who needs represenation or legal counsel in court. These were all stressful times for me and he alwa...ys made feel comfortable and at ease.
