Brad and Susie were phenomenal! They both made my Wife and I feel at ease with the bankruptcy and were always there when we had a question! A very smooth process from what we were thinking it would have been.
An easy decision during a difficult time in my life.
Brad is extremely thorough and personable. He really makes you feel comfortable and at ease with the process throughout!!! Susie in the office was extremely helpful and understanding!! They really cared and the caring is what made the difference for me!!

A good guy who does care
Let’s be honest, Brad probably has a list of clients longer than we can imagine. However, I never felt my wife and I were a nuisance. Quite the opposite. Brad listened and answered questions we had, gave direction where appropriate and redirection when subjects were not in his scope. He and Susie always made time for us if needed.
There isn’t a ton of interaction with bankruptcy attorneys but what we needed and hoped for we received. We are grateful.

Fantastic Lawyer
I did not have much contact with Brad after filing bankruptcy. I didn't need too. Everything was handled to perfection so I only had to send minimal emails. Thank you for everything, especially the 2nd chance on life and providing for my family.

Awesome!
I was terrified to start this process but Brad (and Susie in the office) made it an easy process start to finish. Very clear cut and all my questions were answered (and I asked a Ton!) Would absolutely recommend working with Brad!

I am highly recommending this firm
There are so many attorneys out there offering bankruptcy services that I thought it would be a nightmare finding the right attorney. After doing some research, I spoke with Brad. He put me at ease in our first meeting and I knew I would hire him for my case. Brad and Susie (his Senior Legal Assistant) both are very knowledgeable in bankruptcy law. I can’t thank them enough for the outstanding support and dedication provided to me. It has been a pleasure working with you both. Thank you very much!!! I am highly recommending this firm!!!

Backruptcy status
When I reached out to Brad I was desperate; loaded down in debt and felt I could not get myself above water at that point. Brad reviewed my info and said I was a fit for Chapter 13 bankruptcy and it would take 5 years to pay back. It actually took a little less and now that I've been discharged I feel like a new person, all thanks to his work & care in taking on my case. I have a new outlook on life! and my credit score is actually pretty good with just finishing a Chapter 13th; I feel like I can now move on, I learned a lot through the process and feel like a new person.

Very happy
Filing for bankruptcy is not an easy decision to make. Wondering if your counsel is properly representing you is something you don't want to add to your bucket of troubles. I NEVER had that feeling during my process.
Brad was everything I needed in a lawyer. He was professional , respectful of my time, non-condescending, and reasonably priced.
Susie ensured that I always knew what was needed of me and where we were in the process. Her communication was prompt and precise.
I interviewed several lawyers: fancy downtown Chicago office lawyers and local suburban lawyers. I knew Brad was a great choice and he and Susie proved me right.

What An Amazing Attorney Signed PamJE
When I realized my only way out was to file bankruptcy to be set free of all the financial traumas I had been experiencing. I could not have met a BETTER ATTORNEY THAN BRAD COVEY. I was so emotional and he listened to everything I said. He was patient and kind and he took time with me. He never interrupted me while I was talking. Brad is an AMAZING MAN! He was personable, professional and really sympathetic and empathetic because of my situation. He guided me through this process and answered ALL my questions, and I had a lot of questions. He explained the process of these bankruptcy procedures, and because of my situation, the best bankruptcy for me was Chapter 13, so I was with Brad Covey three years, and everything went very well. I listened to everything he said and followed everything legally. Then I was less than 6 months left in my bankruptcy and Brad Covey suggested that I pay off my Chapter 13 and I was set free. Hiring Brad Covey was the BEST THING I EVER DID!! He also has the most Wonderful Legal Assistant Suzie, that answered questions and helped me through this process and led me to Brad when she did not have answers to my questions. Brad would call me back immediately, that is how he really cares. This is more than a job position, his heart is really in this work to see people set free. Things happen in life many times that are beyond our control, and we need to realize that Brad is a man that can help you be set free and begin a new life. I am now starting a New Life, because of all the excellent service from Brad and his Wonderful assistant Suzie. Brad and Suzie, you have been a God thing in my life. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. May God Bless you both as you continue to help people be set free with all your expertise!!

Amazing
Brad and his assistant Susie are both very professional and attentive to their claimants. Susie was always very polite,understanding and caring when I called the office with questions. Brad always got back to me in a timely manner when I had any questions for him. He was very caring and understanding . He explained everything to me in a detailed manner of what was to be expected for the case that I was filing with him. He made sure that I understood everything throughout the entire process and keep me updated as needed as to what was going on and what I was to expect to happen. Brad is very knowledgeable and knows what he is doing. I would definitely go back to him for any future cases and I would recommend him to everybody. He really made me feel at ease and made this a simple and comfortable process for me.

Respect
The one thing about Brad as well Susie is that they treated me with RESPECT. Brad was very patient with me, answered all my questions and would meet with me as often as I needed. My case took a bit longer as it was a chapter 13 so it lasted a few years. Susie was always helpful when I needed an answer and they are both very casual as we were always on a first name basis even though numerous times I would say Mr. or Miss. They came highly recommended from a lady I know who had to file chapter 7 about 8 years ago.
