Ms. Hudachek is the best representation out there!

Ms. Hudachek did an outstanding service to me in representation of my Chapter 7 bankruptcy case. From the afternoon she first consulted with me, she affirmed that my choice was the best possible move in resolving what accumulated to over a decade of bad debt. She was professional and savvy, while per...sonable and understanding of my debt circumstances - and truthfully, I could not have asked for a better experience or better representation. Starla is, without a doubt, world class. I recommend her services to anyone seeking financial representation!

Broken Widow

I went to a consultation with Starla to look into filing bankruptcy after loosing my husband of 27 years and not being able to continue making payments on our house. She answered all of my questions and explained everything in complete detail. I left her office and I told my son she wasn’t your typic...al “stuffy” lawyer. She had compassion and truly listened to my concerns. A few weeks later I decided to hire Starla and met with her again where I signed documents and she yet again answered my many questions and concerns and I left her office feeling very confident in my decision. This was a huge load lifted off my shoulders being the fact that unfortunately my husband and I had to file back in 2010 and I felt like such a failer to have to go down this road again after working so hard to have my credit in good standing. The very next day Starla contacted me with some good news that she discovered and have me choices on if I should file or not. I decided not to file. What other attorney would do that? She could’ve just filed for the bankruptcy and been done, but NO! she was looking out for the best for her client! Starla rocks! I would HIGHLY recommended her to my family and friends.

BEST BANKRUPTCY LAWYER

Starla helped me with my bankruptcy when other lawyers would not because of special circumstances with my case. She was very knowledgeable and patient with me through the whole process. I would highly recommend her.
