Experienced and sharp with a thoughtful manner.

I contacted many lawyers but Ms. Hudachek was the only one who took the time to discuss my issue and give me a professional legal evaluation. Ms. Hudachek answered all of my questions in a kind and caring manner while providing legal insight into my problem. Although my issue was not within her prac...tice guidelines she was more than amenable about discussing my options and gave me several ideas on how to proceed. Just talking to Ms. Hudachek made me feel better. I am truly grateful to her for her help and for the generous amount of time she gave me during our consultation.

Gave Us all Our Options And Communicated

Starla Hudachek represented me very well and I couldn't be more pleased, even now 10 years later. Back then, she explained everything concisely and clearly and I was able to work with her to figure out the best approach and path when facing a scary financial future. Chapter 7 bankruptcy and a "dee...d in lieu of foreclosure" weren't options that were really very attractive to me back in 2007. I was embarrassed and uncomfortable. Ms. Hudachek was compassionate and put me at ease. She really seemed to understand and it made me feel safe. I can't recommend her legal knowledge, her personal disposition and customer service enough. I recently needed a copy of my discharge paperwork and even now, a decade later, I had in my hands within hours of the request. I am grateful I worked with Starla.

Caring and responsive attorney

I used Ms. Hudacheck for a bankruptcy, and could not have been better served. She is EXCEPTIONAL at quick communication, and is a very effective attorney. I was very pleased with all aspects of her work and consider myself fortunate to have had her assistance.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
