Best decision

In November 2021 I was looking for an attorney to file bankruptcy after losing my job. I googled attorneys within my area and thank god I found Greg. I was thinking about calling other places but I went ahead and gave Greg a call ( I saw all his reviews and noticed he had 5 stars but I wanted to make... sure my self if he was able to help me) not knowing anything about the process he was very clear and honest about how it works to file bankruptcy. After talking to him I felt relieved and sent out all the information and documents needed. I was super afraid at first but the way he works very professional and confident made me take the decision of the process. He’s and excellent attorney and I’m thankful for what he and his team did about my case. I will definitely recommend him. Thank you

HIGHLY RECOMMEND GREG! DON'T GO ANYWHERE OR WITH ANYONE ELSE!

I was going to write an elaborate review but honestly, the one thing that I think about when I think about Wadhwani & Shanfeld is just how awesome they are, both on the individual and firm level. I submitted a request for information regarding bankruptcy and Greg Shanfeld reached out to me via ph...one immediately, probably not even an hour or two after my request was submitted. It wasn’t until I spoke with Greg that, for the first time in years, I felt that there was a way out of my debt. Let’s face it, nobody wants to declare bankruptcy. Realizing that you have to consider bankruptcy as an option sucks, it truly does. Just like any major thing in life, you live and you learn. The greatest thing about speaking to Greg about my situation was that he not only was able to put into words what I was feeling (that I was essentially living to pay the cards), but he also didn’t judge me. Throughout our phone conversation, Greg took the details that I provided him about my specific situation and used them to give me more information about my options and what the entire bankruptcy process would be life. Greg was extremely articulate, answered all of my questions, and simplified the entire bankruptcy process to make sure that I understood what was going to happen next and in the future. Perhaps the greatest thing that I picked up in my initial conversation with Greg is that he truly does want to help. He understands not only the legal aspect of the bankruptcy process, but the emotional one as well. People going through the bankruptcy process are anxious, scared, etc., and Greg gets that. He truly wants to help his clients gain a new slate and that’s exactly what he did for me. From start to finish, my bankruptcy process took 5 months. The fees were extremely reasonable and Greg allows for it to be made in payments (though I’d advise to pay it off ASAP). 5 months for a clean slate and lessons learned, sign me up. Complimenting Greg is his partner and the firm’s staff. When Greg wasn’t available, his partner Raj Wadhwani gladly saw me, answered my questions, and picked up where Greg left off. Jocelyn, the firm’s legal assistant, was amazing in her communication and in answering both misc. and specific questions regarding the bankruptcy process. When my questions were complicated and best explained via phone, she didn’t hesitate to give me a call. All in all, I HIGHLY recommend Wadhwani & Shanfeld to anybody that is looking to go through the bankruptcy process, or even just has questions regarding the process. Their professionalism, knowledge, and empathy is UNMATCHED.

Greg and his firm are amazing!!

We hired Greg and his firm to help us with our bankruptcy cases. He ended up helping both myself and my father file. It seems so scary when you first consider filing for bankruptcy and you’re so stressed and we at lest felt like we were at the end of our rope. Greg just stepped right up and took ove...r. He was very professional, and patient. His associates Jocylyn and Shelby were bit awesome. We had a few hitches along the way with other creditors and Greg and his team just handled every curve with grace. I highly recommend him and his firm. They are fantastic. We will be eternally grateful for his help in saving our financial future.

Very caring and did a great job

Filing bankruptcy was a very difficult decision for us. Fortunately we were referred to Greg Shanfeld, who not only did an incredible job for us in getting everything discharged for us that we had hoped we could get and always being responsive, but he truly cared about my wife and me. That human el...ement, which was lacking in the other attorneys I had initially met with, made that emotionally difficult time so much easier to get through. I can't say enough about Greg and his staff.
