Debra Vorhies Levine

Debora filed my bankruptcy case a year ago but made mistakes. When the courts requested her to submit corrections she never did. Every attempt to call her either went to her voicemail which was always full and did not allow me to leave a message or I got her secretary, Gabby, who didn't know where sh...e was or if she was going to be in. On the rare occasions that she did answer her phone she always gave me excuses as to why she hadn't done anything for my case which were always personal problems she was encountering and we always far fetched. I ended up having to hire a new lawyer and getting everything re-filed correctly. Never received the money I gave Debora back and I'm. Sure I never will. I cannot believe any attorney would ever act like this.

Stay away from Mrs Levine. I believe right now the law offices is incapable of practicing law. I hired Mrs Levine in March of 2014 and received no communication from her for 3 months. All communication was initiated by me and I spent 95% of the time only speaking with her secretary. No return call...s, No Status Updates, No emails. This went on for 6 months until I finally hired another lawyer who handled my case for less than 25% of the cost. Never received my retainer back from Mrs. Levine. Ended up filing with the ARDC and the Better Business Bureau. It's such a shame that one would risk their reputation over such little money ($1000+). My advice is to see another lawyer while she sorts out the internal turmoil that is occurring in her offices. This is actually the first time that I have ever written a review about any business. I was reluctant to do this, but hope that I can prevent someone else from having the same unfortunate experience. Hope this helps

Hello - Attorney Levine has SEVERAL complaints against her. She is under investigation. If she owes you money and has provided little to no service, if you have called and called and called only to NEVER receive a response, do not hesitate to contact the Attorney Registration and Disciplinary Commiss...ion (ARDC) of the Supreme Court of Illinois. Complete the Request for Investigation forms and submit via fax or email. You can also report her to the Better Business Bureau of Chicago. I have done both. I learned quite a bit about Attorney Levine after speaking with the ARDC today and none of it was good. I hope this helps someone. I have paid Attorney Levine for a bankruptcy. I have called her repeatedly, she does not return calls. I finally got her on the phone two weeks ago and set an appointment with her, the day of the appointment she did not show up nor did she call me to explain that she would not come to the office. I am ready to move forward but I cannot because it has been impossible to get answers from her. She has so many excuses - her staff walked out on her, she woke up with a sore throat, she's in a meeting and will call you back. Her website has been offline for months so you cannot email her and she is rarely in her office. I've asked for my money back and she has told me twice, that she won't be in the office long or that she's just walking out the door.
