Highly Recommended

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.

Attorney review - Kelly Smith

Working with Attorney Kelly Smith was very good. She answered all my questions and made me feel comfortable during the whole process.

Peace of mind

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.

Great Bankruptcy Attorney

The law offices of Stuart B. Handelman were great for my bankruptcy. I actually went to two other "bankruptcy mills" before and was told by them that I would have to file for a chapter 13 bankruptcy and wouldnt qualify for a chapter 7. The law offices of Stuart Handelman got me into a chapter 7 wit...hout any difficulty. They also make the whole bankruptcy process very easy to deal with. They show you exactly what you need to do and get done and also are great about getting back to you when you call with any questions. Bankruptcy can be tough to go through and they make the entire process very easy to deal with. I would highly recommend the law offices of Stuart Handelman for anybody that is thinking about filing bankruptcy.

Great job handling our Chapter 7 Bankruptcy Case in Will County IL

Attorney Kelly Smith,   Attorney Jean Huang, and Legal assistant Desiree Glapion. helped my wife and I with our bankruptcy case in Will County. They followed up with us when information was needed and kept us informed thru the entire process where everything stood. After our case was discharged I ...was upset that our home and car was not re-affirmed after the discharge. After a few weeks and many conversations with Kelly I finally realized why this wasn't done and have total respect for Kelly Smith. She was looking out for our best interest personally on why things were done that way. Anytime I needed to get in contact with the office someone was available and someone always returned my call quickly and emails also. As I stated above even after our case was discharged the attorney still was taking my phone calls. I can't say that many attornies would return the calls. Great job and if your looking for a law firm who is truly there for the best interest for either yourself or your family hire this law firm.
