Stuart Swanson is a very competent and professional bankruptcy attorney. His fees are reasonable. When you start with him he enters all your information into his computer, let's you read it as he goes - he's totally open book about everything. You'll understand the process after the first meeting. He... explains the difference between Chap 7 and Chap 11. After that you can interact with him entirely via email - he's tech savvy enough to deal with that just fine. Bankruptcy is really just a technical process with a paper trail and a simple hearing. It's not that complicated and dealing with Stuart makes it that way. He may charge slightly more than others in the area- only slightly - but that is worth it. He's also a good guy, a nice person. He's dealing with many, many of these hearings each year, but he will know who you are and be able to respond in a timely manner no problem. He's be there for your hearing, side by side with you, and he tells you what to say and what not to say. I honestly can't recommend him enough. He's forthright, truthful, clear, nice, funny, patient. Hey, his office is not the fanciest in the world - it's a basic Skokie office. If you're in the need of this, I'd go see Stuart, he'll put your mind at ease and get you on the the next chapter (so to speak) of your life.

Overall my experience was good, I met with them initially for a consult and then decided to go ahead and file the chapter 11 bankruptcy. I think I met one or two more times at the most and other than that they handled everything. Very professional, I would definitely recommend them to someone who's l...ooking to file for a reasonable cost without a lot of hassle.
