Relieved and Thankful

I usually never give 5 out of 5 stars, but Stuart has earned them all. After losing my real estate business, I quickly realized that I was running out of options to pay my mortgage and mounting bills. Bankruptcy wasn't something that I ever thought I would use, but thankfully the option exists. I...t was a hard pill to swallow, but the decision had to be made and I decided to go with Stuart Handelman to file my case. Not only was Stuart non-judgemental and understanding....he was strong and assuring. I was afraid I would feel like a failure after filing, but instead I felt relieved and grateful. Stuart did the proverbial hand-holding throughout the process and I highly recommend his services when you feel like all other options are lost. Thanks, Stuart. And thank you to your associates, as well, who kept me and my case on track.

Really Cares!!!

Stuart is amazing you can text him any time with any concern and he will get back to you ASAP. This is guy really cares he becomes your friend during the process and truly looks out for your well being and makes sure that you get maximum representation. He always shoots from the hip and will be 1...00% honest with you during the entire process. He knows the Illinois system inside out and this is the right person to have on your corner. During my 341 meeting I realized the importance of having a great attorney. Most attorneys did not even talk. Stuart was there before, during and after. Gave me the best advice and and got my case discharged quickly and efficiently. This is the attorney to hire I went to a mill were the attorney kept asking me if I had money to pay him. At first I thought it would a horrible experience but it really was smooth. I truly recommend that you at least sit down and talk to him. This is guy is the real deal a truly great attorney and person.

Trustworthy Lawyer

-Very responsive, we were able to schedule an initial consultation very quickly. Mr. Handelman made a special trip to meet us at the Flossmoor location and was very prompt. -We felt he was very trustworthy. We were there for a bankruptcy consultation and after hearing all of the facts Mr. Handel...man ultimately advised us that bankruptcy was not the right thing to do at this point. He also gave us referrals for other lawyers who may be able to help with our legal matters.

Much Better off now

I filed chapter 13 with Stuart's Office in fall of 2007, and ended up converting to a Chapter 7 by the end of the year. Stuart handled my case and coversion professionally and expeditiously and gave me a great sense of all my options during a very difficult financial season of my life. His advice a...nd expertise was instumental in me getting back on track financially. Since my case has been discharged I have been able to re-establish my credit, purchase the car of my dreams and I am now in the home buying process. Stuart did such an excellent job that I have recommeded his services to family and friends including my mother, whose case he also handled with good success.

Trustworthy and respectful, I highly recommend!

Stuart Handelman always treated me with respect and wasn't afraid to give tough love when I needed it. He saw me as an individual, not as a dollar sign walking through the door. He went over all of my options, helped me make a tough decision, and calmed my anxieties and fears. Stuart made me feel com...fortable and was hands-on throughout the complete process, and was always reachable by phone, text or email. He always gave me good, solid advice and worked very hard for me. If you are dealing with debt and feel overwhelmed, give Mr. Handelman a call, you will be glad to have someone like him on your side.
