Professional and trustworthy

Being seniors, and finding ourselves in the position of having to file Chapter7 bankruptcy, we were understandably more than nervous about finding a lawyer that we could afford and, more importantly, trust. After several days of searching and investigating, we came upon Steven Grace. From our firs...t phone call we knew that Steven was that person. We felt so much better after hearing what he had to say. Everything was explained openly and clearly. He was always available and would quickly return our calls and emails. When our (Zoom) court appearance came, he walked us through the procedure step by step. Our bankruptcy was recently discharged—thank you Steven! He is now going to help us rebuild our credit. We very heartily recommend him for anyone in a similar situation. Jeffrey and Illona S.

Great Lawyer for anyone considering Bankruptcy

5+ Stars! I would refer Steven Grace for anyone considering bankruptcy. He is very kind, knowledgeable, experienced and was quick to respond to my many questions I had about bankruptcy. It was a very new and sometimes stressful process at times but Steven Grace helped me feel relaxed and guided me ev...ery step of the way for a successful outcome. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

EXCEPTIONAL lawyer. Friendly, knowledgeable, affordable, and competent.

If I could this law office 100 stars, I would. I found the law office of Mr Steven Grace after I had spoken to 10-15 other law offices, legal advisors, online research, and countless free consultations. I almost just gave up as I was trying to battle a very complex lawsuit against myself and my compa...ny in the state of IL, and I live in TX. From my first call with Mr. Steven Grace, I immediately knew he was the one i was going hire! Not only that he was extremely knowledgeable, experienced and clearly knew exactly what to do, but he also listened and genuinely cared about me as a client. Listed to my full story, presented several options, and settled my case with great deal of confidence. While he was clearly very busy, I truly felt that I was the only client that mattered to him. He reached the resolution that I wanted and kept me informed the whole time. I honestly felt that a friend was helping, not a lawyer. More importantly, he charged me less than half of what most other law offices tried to charge me. I would highly recommend this lawyer to friends, family, or anyone that really needs help. I wouldn’t waste time and money and give law offices if you help.

I Could Not have Found a Better Lawyer

In conducting a web search for a lawyer to handle a foreclosure or even bankruptcy situation, Steve's website stood out head and shoulders above the rest in the amount and quality of information provided and potential alternatives for resolution of my issues similar to mine. He, in turn, was a refle...ction of his first rate web site: very knowledgeable, patient, available and a joy to work with. He offered strategies and recommendations which were not only brilliant, but provided a course of action which significantly mitigated what I thought would be a much greater financial burden. Although living out of state, he effectively conducted our business through electronic means. I whole-heartedly and strongly recommend Mr. Grace.
