Highly Recommend!

Stuart was absolutely amazing and understanding of my situation. I was quite nervous and had no clue what I was doing. Upon my first visit, I felt relieved and a big weight off my shoulders. If you are looking for an honest, reliable, smart and caring lawyer; Staurt is it! He talked me through the en...tire process and made me feel at ease. I have no regrets and am so grateful for his knowledge and assistance in filing bankruptcy. Thank you, thank you Staurt!

excellent

I would definitely recommend Stuart- he made filing my bankruptcy smooth and easy. Communicative, helpful, patient and friendly. He made me feel at ease and answered all of my questions (even those I probably asked twice) . Thank you!

GREAT Firm, Experts in Bankruptcy

We were referred to The Law Offices of Stuart Handelman by family members who were forced to file Chapter 7 bankruptcy. Retaining this firm and being represented by Jean Huang was the best decision we've ever made. Our first consult was with attorney Kelly Smith - while she is the Ch. 7 specialists..., she went though all of our options with us and guided us throughout the info gathering process. Attorney Jean Huang handles the firms Ch. 13 filings and is just as good as Ms. Smith. Professional, kind, informative and efficient - those just a few words to describe Ms. Huang. Not to mention the fact that they are well-known and have developed a very solid rapport with the bankruptcy trustee's offices. As glad as we are that our Ch. 13 plan has been discharged and we can start fresh, we are a bit saddened that we will no longer have regular contact with Ms. Huang. Bottom line: if you need any assistance with bankruptcy, call them. It will surely be the best decision you ever made.

Love this firm!

Once I made the decision to file for bankruptcy protection, I did a lot of research to decide which firm to use and the Law Offices of Stuart Handelman repeatedly showed up as one of the best in Chicago. After my first meeting with Kelly Smith, I knew I had made the right decision. She took me thr...ough the different types of bankruptcy filings, performed my means test (I was only eligible for Chapter 13) and walked me through the filing process. After filing, the rest of my case from the meeting with the Trustee until my case was discharged was handled by Jean Huang. I also interacted with their Legal Assistant, Desiree Glapion on several occasions. These ladies are fantastic! Making a decision to file bankruptcy was not a decision I took lightly, but ended up being necessary for my situation. I'm so glad I ended up selecting this firm - Kelly, Jean and Desiree always made me feel very comfortable, and I never felt as though I was being judged. My e-mails and phone calls were always answered within 24 hours and Jean was always prompt in notifying me of any changes or updates with my filing. She was also incredibly patient with all of my questions (there were a lot!) and very thorough in her responses. I really cannot recommend this firm enough - they truly made one of the toughest times in my life much less stressful.

Relief

Mr. Handelman was very knowledgeable and very helpful. He always made my husband and I feel at ease with the bankruptcy. He made us know that we were not the only ones in this horrible situation. Mr. Handelman was always assessable and answered all questions the same day asked. Ours was not an easy ...case and he worked diligently to make our bankruptcy work out to our advantage. We would highly recommend him to anyone. We would also take this opportunity to thank him for all his help.
