Great Level of Service

My experience in dealing with The Law Offices of Stuart B. Handelman, P.C. was great. Stuart was very prompt in responding to any inquiries I had pertaining to my case. I feel I was well informed of my options prior to and during the filing of my case to ensure I made the best decision. Additionally, the location of his office in the south suburbs was very easy to find and close to home, so that certainly provided ease. I would certainly recommend Stuart to others! Thank you for your great level of service.

Communicative. Helpful. Patient. Friendly.

I would definitely recommend Stuart- he made filing my bankruptcy smooth and easy. Communicative, helpful, patient and friendly. He made me feel at ease and answered all of my questions (even those I probably asked twice) . Thank you!

I Can Start All Over!

Attorney Kelly Smith, Attorney Jean Huang, and Legal assistant Desiree Glapion. I would like to thank my Bankruptcy Law Firm of Stuart B Handleman and associates named above, on the process of my financial freedom. It is so relieving that, I can start all over! All you need to do is get your finances together and give to your lawyer, they do the rest! Thank you, Kimberly

If You Are Facing a Tough Time Financially, Call Their Office.

When I needed some advice for our situation I didn't know who to call. Anyone going through a financial crisis wants to find someone trustworthy, knowledgeable and wants to be treated with respect. So after reading a few reviews online for Mr. Handelman I took a deep breath and picked up the phone and made the call to his office. My call was routed to Jean and after giving her a few facts she made an appointment for us to meet with Stuart. Jean was the kindess person and assured me that we would be ok and we were NOT alone! We met with Mr. Handelman close to our home a few days later and it was like talking to a long time friend. He understood our situation and told us not to worry that everything would be fine and that we were in good hands. He is extremely knowledgeable and there was no question he couldn't answer. He filed our Chapter 7 case a few weeks later and we just received our dismissal in time for the new year. There were a few questions I had along the way and he responds sometimes within minutes and always the same day! We were always kept informed and the process was not as bad as I had thought. Now I wished I had made the call months earlier but I am so glad I made the call! Everyone at his office is very kind and a pleasure to deal with. If you are facing a tough time financially call their office. You will not be sorry!

I Felt Very Comfortable With The Attorney's Who Helped Me Through This Process

Informative interview at first to let me know all the possible ways of filing Bankruptcy. They continued to communicate with me all that was going on during the entire process. I was well informed before and during the filing and I felt very comfortable with the Attorney's who helped me through this process.

Retaining This Firm Was The Best Decision We've Ever Made

We were referred to The Law Offices of Stuart Handelman by family members who were forced to file Chapter 7 bankruptcy. Retaining this firm and being represented by Jean Huang was the best decision we've ever made. Our first consult was with attorney Kelly Smith - while she is the Ch. 7 specialists, she went though all of our options with us and guided us throughout the info gathering process. Attorney Jean Huang handles the firms Ch. 13 filings and is just as good as Ms. Smith. Professional, kind, informative and efficient - those just a few words to describe Ms. Huang. Not to mention the fact that they are well-known and have developed a very solid rapport with the bankruptcy trustee's offices. As glad as we are that our Ch. 13 plan has been discharged and we can start fresh, we are a bit saddened that we will no longer have regular contact with Ms. Huang. Bottom line: if you need any assistance with bankruptcy, call them. It will surely be the best decision you ever made.

They Truly Made One of the Toughest Times in My Life Less Stressful

Once I made the decision to file for bankruptcy protection, I did a lot of research to decide which firm to use and the Law Offices of Stuart Handelman repeatedly showed up as one of the best in Chicago. After my first meeting with Kelly Smith, I knew I had made the right decision. She took me through the different types of bankruptcy filings, performed my means test (I was only eligible for Chapter 13) and walked me through the filing process. After filing, the rest of my case from the meeting with the Trustee until my case was discharged was handled by Jean Huang. I also interacted with their Legal Assistant, Desiree Glapion on several occasions. These ladies are fantastic! Making a decision to file bankruptcy was not a decision I took lightly, but ended up being necessary for my situation. I'm so glad I ended up selecting this firm - Kelly, Jean and Desiree always made me feel very comfortable, and I never felt as though I was being judged. My e-mails and phone calls were always answered within 24 hours and Jean was always prompt in notifying me of any changes or updates with my filing. She was also incredibly patient with all of my questions (there were a lot!) and very thorough in her responses. I really cannot recommend this firm enough - they truly made one of the toughest times in my life much less stressful.

He Exceeded All My Expectations

Having had bad legal experiences in the past, I knew I needed a specialist. After searching the internet, I came up with a short list of four lawyers in my area. I figured, I'd go see them all for a free consultation then pick the best. I got lucky! I went to see Stuart first. He exceeded all my expectations, before during and after the case. I have no hesitation offering my highest possible recommendation to Stuart Handelman. And, I will definitely call him first should I have any legal issues in the future. Thanks Stuart, you're the best!

The Process Was Quick

They Worked Diligently to Make Our Bankruptcy Work Out to Our Advantage

Mr. Handelman was very knowledgeable and very helpful. He always made my husband and I feel at ease with the bankruptcy. He made us know that we were not the only ones in this horrible situation. Mr. Handelman was always assessible and answered all questions the same day asked. Ours was not an easy case and he worked diligently to make our bankruptcy work out to our advantage. We would highly recommend him to anyone. We would also take this opportunity to thank him for all his help.

A Very Caring & Knowledgeable Law Firm

A very caring and knowledgeable law firm. They did for me and my wife what I thought was impossible. I would highly recommend this firm to anyone. After only two meetings with Stuart in his office and 1 meeting with Kelly at the court house, my debts were discharged under Chapter 7. I felt like a 1,000 pound weight had been taken off my shoulds and I can't thank them enough.

This Is A Firm You Can Trust!!!

Thank you Stuart Handelman and your firm. When I started my bankruptcy process, I called a TV firm. After I had a talk with them and read their reviews, I was not happy. They called me back very upset that I canclled the appointment with them. The Law Offices of Stuart Handelman was the first firm I called from the phone book. I felt very comfortable when we met the first time. Stuart and his team were very understanding to my situation and helped me with the process of credit restructuring. You don't realize the issues with finances until you go through this with them and take the online classes. This is a firm that you can trust!!! Thank you.

My Case Was Handled Very Quickly

Very compassionate and knowledgeable attorneys. My case was handled very quickly and I felt I had very good support from the legal team while going thru this trying time.

I Could Not Have Possibly Felt More Comfortable

When I decided to file my case, I initially met with two attorneys and called a third. The choice was crystal clear to me when I met with Att. Kelly Smith at the Stuart B. Handleman offices. Attorney Smith was the MOST transparent with me about my choices and what I would need to do to accomplish my goals. Obviously this created trust in my relationship immediately with her, which she never let down. I also appreciated that Att. Smith was 100% on top of it, and had a get-it-done attitude - there was no messing around, which enabled me to have a very clean & tidy experience with her. Plus, it didn't hurt that I saved hundreds of dollars choosing her over another attorney - but, I would honestly have paid more if necessary to feel as comfortable as I did with her. This was my financial future on the line, and I wasn't interested in having any regrets down the road, or wondering if someone could have represented me better. I could not have possibly felt more comfortable with Attorney Smith and have no questions or regrets on my decision to choose her for my case. It all went smoothly & successfully. Thank you for excellent service!

Expressed a Genuine Care for Helping People

After unsuccessfully meeting with multiple bankruptcy attorneys, I figured I knew what to expect when walking into my consultation with Stuart Handelman. I was wrong. Unlike the others, he was understanding of my situation and expressed a genuine care for helping people overcome there financial struggles. He was hired on the spot. My situation was very unique and throughout the process we encountered many obstacles and changes to my financial situation. Stuart and his team handled everything promptly and professionally. I will forever be grateful to Stuart and his team for getting me through these tough times and providing me the opportunity to rebuild financially.
