The first time we were in the downtown office, we actually met Stuart. He was as down to earth as one gets, shared his hobby of photography. It made us wonder if he was really as good an attorney... because he wasn't at all the stereotypical arrogant downtown attorney (lol). But his firm has never... steered us wrong, and we are so happy that our legal matters are in their hands. Two attorneys have personally handled our legal matters... Kelly Smith and Jean Huang. Kelly opened our case and saw it through until everything was cleared by the Courts for Chapter 13. Jean took over as our attorney once we entered repayment, and has been guiding us for the past 5 years. Both attorneys are honest, straightforward, knowledgeable, and reassuring. They have handled our case with professionalism and competence, and have been incredibly kind and compassionate with us. Kelly did an amazing job with our case and walked us through everything, oftentimes repeating herself without the slightest bother, as she was sensitive and empathic to our anxieties. Jean has been incredible. We don't worry because we know that we are in good hands with her. We panicked when we received a subpoena at one point, but Jean was poised and simply laid out our options, went to Court for us, and made the headache go away. We did not have to miss a day of work or interrupt our lives... she took care of it all for us. The legal assistant, Desiree Glapion, is also great. She is quick to reply in case Jean is out of the office, handles herself with professionalism, and is sensitive to our questions. Feeling terribly about having to file bankruptcy, I walked around feeling ashamed of myself and expected nobody to be empathic to our problem... not so with this group. I am equally grateful for their competence and their kindness. Our case will soon be done, but if we should ever need another attorney again, they are the ones we will come back to... the only firm for us.

I am a client of Stuart Bradley Handelman. I wanted to express my complete satisfaction with Mr. Handelman' office. From the first day I met him and had the initial consultation he made me feel at ease. He was very patient with me and took as much time as I needed to explain the whole process of fili...ng bankrupcy. I had never done this before and I was terrified. He told me I can call him any time if I had questions once I left his office. He even volunteered to give me his cell phone if I had an urgent issue or questions. I did not because he was so thorough in our meetings. Everything that he said would happen, did happen exactly the way he told me. I am so pleased with everything he did with my case. Jean Margaret Mary Huang was another Attorney I woked with and she was outstanding too.Their Legal Assistant was very professional and helpful too. Her names is Desiree Glapiod. They are the BEST.

After unsuccessfully meeting with multiple bankruptcy attorneys, I figured I knew what to expect when walking into my consultation with Stuart Handelman. I was wrong. Unlike the others, he was understanding of my situation and expressed a genuine care for helping people overcome there financial str...uggles. He was hired on the spot. My situation was very unique and throughout the process we encountered many obstacles and changes to my financial situation. Stuart and his team handled everything promptly and professionally. I will forever be grateful to Stuart and his team for getting me through these tough times and providing me the opportunity to rebuild financially.

For the first time in my life I found myself in a situation that seemed unfixable. I allowed a person to take advantage of my finances. I was scared and felt all alone. I finally decided to contact a lawyer. Initally I went to a different firm and spoke to a lawyer there. I walked out of that office ...in tears. She made me feel ashamed of myself for allowing that to happen. She belittled me and cursed at me. It was horrible! After some time had passed I decided to try talking to a lawyer again. This time my experience was night and day! I initially met with Kelly Smith, she is amazing! She immediately put my fears at ease. I felt like I was talking to a long time friend. Kelly normally deals with Chapter 7 and I was filing for Chapter 13. However Kelly was the one who helped me get the paperwork started and went to court with me. After my trustee was assigned my case was then re-assigned to Jean Huang. She to is very competent, professional and prompt. Anytime I had questions or concerns she answered them immediately. Anytime I called into the office thier legal assistant Desiree Glapion was also prompt and professional. I would highly recommend this office to anyone. They were my life savers when I was drowning.
