GREAT!

Sam was able to help me with a difficult financial situation. He believed in my situation and understood my mistakes, I was able to file. I don't think this would have happened with anyone else. THANKS SAM!

Absolutely Amazing Service!!!!

Attorney Sam Chandraiah is the most amazing lawyer I've ever met. I was very nervous and quite embarrassed of having to file bankruptcy. I consulted with Sam over the phone multiple times prior to making a final decision to do so. He provided exceptional customer service prior to receiving any type o...f payment. He is very detailed oriented and made sure that I fully understood the entire process. Sam was in constant communication with me throughout the entire ordeal. He made me feel assured that this was the best choice to make. My case has been filed and I've already had my 341 meeting but Sam has still been in contact with me. He has even recommended great advice for rebuilding my credit and purchasing a car. He even went the extra mile to send me links of great car deals. Sam Chandraiah is the most interpersonal professional that I have ever encountered (even compared to physicians that I work with). I highly recommend him to anyone seeking a fresh start.

Awesome caring bankruptcy Attorney who keeps you in the loops everything

Attorney Sam Chandraiah was awesome. I have never met an attorney who not only was flexible with his schedule to accommodate you, but was also very informative and kept us in the loop every step of the way. He took the mounds of info that we gave him and worked diligently to make sure that we receive...d excellent quality service. Sam was never rushy and any question we asked was always answered expeditiously. I have never had interaction with an attorney who genuinely seemed to care for the well-being of their client. I would recommend anyone who is faced with a life changing financial bankruptcy dilemma to call Attorney Sam Chandraiah!!!!

Excellent Attorney, Caring, Trustworty, Economical

Filing Bankruptcy is never an easy decision to make but Sam Chandraiah did an exceptional job helping me through the decisions and the process and his fee is at least a third less than all of the huge Bankruptcy attorney companies you see advertised in the media. Sam did an outstanding job for me.... He responded right away to all of my many phone calls and emails before, during and even well after I filed. He was very sensitive and caring toward me and my situation and his professionalism and skill set were phenomenal. I was so fortunate to have him help me through this very tough time in my life. He is a rare find who is an attorney you can completely trust. Sam will have your best interest at heart, especially going through such a major life decision of filing bankruptcy.

FINALLY an attorney who actually cares! Bankruptcy Chapter 7 SUCCESS! Service amazing! READ THIS and STOP LOOKING

I can't tell you what a sigh of relief it was finding Sam. I was turned away by 3 previous so called mega lawfirms that said filing chapter 7 was impossible for me due to income being high. From the minute I found attorney Chandraiah which literally I was contacted within 20 minutes of requesting in...fo from him there was nothing that I was uncomfortable with. Financial burdens like bankruptcy had made me feel like no one was capable of helping me or challenging the system and hearing me out regarding my situation. He challenged and heard me out!Up front he was honest and very knowledgable regarding every aspect of what it's going to take to point me in the right direction. My personal case took a long time to complete due to circumstances both personally and financially but I couldn't have asked for someone better to stick with and he was there for the whole process, no matter what time or day it was my calls were returned,emails answered,and questions answered. I was treated with the utmost respect and professionalism as well as his understanding on a personal level. I got to deal with 1 person only, not a bunch of legal assistants who could have cared less who I was, what my situation was, or what I needed from them. To them I was just a name, and a check in the bank. All I was asked was when I was paying. So imagine my surprise when I came across attorney Chandraiah and was treated like a person and not as a monetary amount due. I truthfully feel if more attorneys took the time and had the level of personal commitment as Sam did the bankruptcy aspect of law would get a much better face and be way less stressful for people needing assistance. That's my story! Again I would highly recommend using Sam. Attorneys like him come very seldom so finding him was truly a blessing. I don't like to focus on cost over service but I can gladly attest to the amount which was charged (well below mega firms) was well worth it and wasn't increased at all ever during the year and a half it took to complete. Personally the service was priceless!

"I consulted a client who needed a bankruptcy attorney in Illinois and referred them to Subramaniam "Sam" Chandraiah. It was a complicated matter and the client reported back to me that the case went extremely well thanks to Mr. Chandraiah's planning and expertise in the case. Since then I have had the opportunity to work with Mr. Chandraiah on other matters and have found that he cares for his client and provides outstanding customer service.
