Chapter 7 Bankruptcy, Foreclosure

I found this law firm in the phone book and contacted them for help in what to do with a house that I could no longer afford due to excessive repairs that were necessary, and I did still have a mortgage. From the very first consultation visit with Stuart he made me feel at ease, explained the pro...cess to me, the costs involved, and answered any and all questions that I had and even anticipated some I had not thought of, as being a widow with no one to depend on this was a very scary undertaking. I hired his firm and thru the entire bankruptcy proceedings with Stuart and then subsequently the foreclosure proceedings with John Yednock, a member of the firm, I was never made to feel that any of my questions were silly and was always given direct answers and knew I was dealing with very competent lawyers. I also had a great deal of peace of mind because any phone calls that I received in regards to my legal matters I was told to just give them Stuart or John's phone number and I was spared any of the hassle that can go along with legal matters and they handled everything for me so I was not bothered. I would use this firm again without hesitation and would recommend them to any and all of my friends. A very, very satisfied client.

A True Godsend

I am positive my situation, potential economic and personal devastation, confronts hundreds of people every single day. I was faced with the prospect of losing everything I have worked for my whole life. I was about to lose my home, everything I had accumulated to maintain it, my van, my sanity and... the respect of family and friends. To this day I can't remember how I ended up with Stuart Handelman's information but I can tell you it was the most fortuitous event of my life. Stuart Handelman and his team of Jean Huang and John Yednock worked tirelessly and may I say tenaciously to save my home and mind. They negotiated the chapter 13 bankruptcy process to save my home and then were able to enter me into arrangements with my bank to modify my mortgage. This whole experience has left me feeling as if I was lifted from the grip of a catastrophe to Stuart, Jean and John escorting me into the warmth and security of my home. It is important for me to mention that this is not, I repeat, this is not a paid proclamation. I can say without any reservation to anyone faced with having to file for bankruptcy that contacting the Law Offices of Stuart B. Handelman, P.C. will be the best decision you can possibly make. They are professional, extremely competent, and compassionate. These are qualities not normally associated with the legal profession but this team definitely personify them. To you Stuart, Jean and John thank you so very,vert much!

Client of Stuart Handelman short sale and chapter 7

I hired Stuart to help sell my property on short sale. During this process I worked closely with John Yednock which is Stuarts right hand man for short sale transactions. Stuart and John always kept me informed throughout the entire process. Anytime I had questions I received responses immediately. ...The process was very smooth and I could not be more happier with the team I choose. After the short sale went through I hired Stuart to file Chapter 7 bankruptcy. This process also was extremely smooth and I am now debt free. Stuart is a great attorney and I would recommend him to everyone I know and don't know. I give Stuart and John 5 stars but to be honest they deserve higher than that.

VERY SATISFIED CLIENT!!

Stuart Handelman and his Firm in one of the best! The last few years has been very difficult personally. I had to be around one too many attorneys. Some good and some not so... Then you have Stuart, who is head and shoulders above the rest. Stuart is very knowledgeable, very professional, patien...t and so easy to talk to. When I first sat with Stuart, he made me feel like I had known him for years and I was just talking to an old friend. I can tell that Stuart cared about me and my case on a personal level and that I wasn't just a case number to him. Stuart was the first one to say every person deserves a 2nd chance, which really hit home and I really appreciated hearing. With Stuart's representation, that's exactly what I got, a 2nd chance. I never once felt judged by Stuart or his staff. Each time I had to reach out to them, including Stuart, I always got a very quick response. There was even times when I reached out to Stuart on a Saturday and Sunday and he called me right back. I am still amazed at the level of attention I received from Stuart and his Associates time and time again. The reviews for Stuart speak for themselves and they don't lie. If you look at Stuart's reviews and then the other attorneys it is night and day. Another attorney might have several reviews with decent feedback. Stuart's near 200 and each client has nothing but great things to say. When you hire Stuart you hire the whole Firm. The first person I had an interaction with was Desiree G. I was very impressed by her right away. I had a ton I was dealing with and I tried to say as much as I can because it was the end of they day and I wanted to explain my whole case, before they close. Desiree let me explain my whole story, never once interrupted and she even empathized with me each point I made. What can you say about this treatment? I am so glad that Desiree put me at ease and offered the free consultation with Stuart. I even had a few interactions with the other two attorneys, Jean Huang and Kelly Smith over the phone, and you guessed it, they too didn't disappoint. Both were also very knowledgeable, friendly and patient. Bankruptcy is a very big decision and something very personal. I can honestly tell you that hiring Stuart Handelman and his Firm was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Stuart gives a free consultation and you have nothing to lose. Stuart's fees were also very reasonable and he works with you at a level that you can afford. Stuart and the Firm has several locations in the area and they do a great job of accommodating you and your needs. Do yourself a big favor, before you think about talking to any other attorneys, talk to Stuart first. I guarantee you that you won't be disappointed! Thank you Stuart, Desiree, Jean and Kelly for the great treatment I received, the great work that you all did for me and giving me that 2nd chance that every one deserves. Best Professional Regards, Scott U.
