A lawyer that gives lawyers a good name!
Ms. Havkin was very knowledgable, communicative and responsive at all phases of our negotiations. She was able to resolve our case for 8% of the original debtors preference period settlement demand. We would highly recommend her and commend her professionalism and experience.

"I endorse this lawyer. Stella is extremely hard working, knowledgeable, experienced and dedicated to obtaining justice for her clients."
"I have personally known Ms. Havkin for several years now as both a member of the Consumer Bankruptcy Attorney and a friend in the Central District Consumer Bankruptcy Attorney's Association. Ms. Havkin is a treasure trove of knowledge and creativity when it comes to helping consumers with bankruptcy issues. She is is very compassionate and understanding of her clients. She has a tremendous amount of experience in her field of law. I would highly recommend her services."
"Stella is extremely knowledgeable in bankruptcy matters and proved indispensable in assisting with a shareholder dispute where the defalcating shareholder attempted to file a bankruptcy in order to avoid a judgment in state court. Stella's understanding of the pertinent procedures, the judges' requirements and in-depth knowledge of the law resulted in a dismissal of the shareholder's bankruptcy and an Order by the bankruptcy requiring the individual to seek affirmative permission from the bankruptcy courts before initiating any further bankruptcy filing. The clients and I were extremely pleased with the handling of the matter as well as the final outcome."
"I've known Stella for many years and have relied on her advice many times. She really knows bankruptcy law and procedure, including Chapters 7 and 13. She's smart and responsive, and cares about her clients. I would definitely hire her to deal with bankruptcy matters."
