"I would highly recommend anyone who is looking for valuable information on how to file chapter 7 contact this Law firm immediately. The process was not hard and the attorney Stuart was excellent. I immediately was comfortable after having a free consultation. After getting wholesome information I knew I would be filing chapter 7 with him. Stuart knows his stuff. He’s got skin in this game and he’s a seasoned attorney! Not only is the experience personable to you it’s also time efficient, given that you are providing all the things asked the process should be a breeze.

Remember you must also do your part so that things can be done correctly! Stuart has all the tools to help you if you really need it! I will continue to use him in the future and I highly recommend whoever is reading this to act quickly if you are pondering on what to do and GET YOUR LIFE BACK! I sure got mine. Thank you Stuart."

“From the initial consultation to hiring Stuart Handelman, the whole process was easy and was handled with professionalism and efficiency.

Mr. Stuart Handelman and his office, especially Kelly Smith, were always courteous and attentive, making me feel that my case was the only one being handled by the firm, when in reality I was likely one of the hundreds of their clients.”

- Client

February 2016

"The staff at Stuart B Handelman in the loop office were most helpful and compassionate during a most trying time in our life. Filing for Bankruptcy is a difficult decision. Attorneys Kelly Smith, Jean Huang and legal assistant Desiree Glapion helped us make it less overwhelming and stressful. Their professionalism and compassion made a difficult situation easier to handle."

"Jean, I want to thank you for all the help you gave us. Even, when I thought things were at their worst, you calmed me down. I know I was a pain in the…. sometimes (okay, all the time), and you probably wanted to hang up on me about a hundred times. Instead, you stayed right by me and told me to hold on. I will be forever grateful for all the hours you put in to help us and believe me if I ever meet someone who needs help, I will definitely recommend you. Words can’t express how grateful I am and I can’t thank you enough."

"Stuart did a great job explaining all aspects of my case. Including costs. No hidden charges. Stuart was available on the phone, email, and at his office. There was no running around to meet him. He took the time to carve out time for me. The best part was (besides handling my case perfectly) 3 years later, he was still available for counsel!"

Client

November 2013

"Jean Huang is an excellent Lawyer. She assisted me when I actually had to attend the court hearing for my bankrupcy. She has such patience when dealing with you and she encourages you. She takes her time to review everything you need to know for the hearing. She even knew I was nervous so she made me comfortable before the hearing. She was professional at all times. She notified of everything I needed to know. I would definitely recommend her to anyone. I am grateful that I found her office to work with me. It was the right and the best choice. She is wonderful."

"...Kelly was very straight forward. She answered all of my questions, gave wonderful advise and was very easy to work with. She was very efficient and things went very smooth. I thought the bankruptcy process would drag out for awhile but things were settled very quickly. I also felt that her fee for services was very reasonable."

"Recently, my husband and I found ourselves in a legal situation. We contacted the Law Offices of Stuart Handelman for assistance and we were supremely happy with their services. We worked with legal assistant John Yednock and we were immensely impressed with his professionalism and punctuality. John always responded to our inquiries quickly and he clearly explained the process as we were going through it. John and Stuart worked diligently and expeditiously to negotiate a settlement that was favorable to us. We would absolutely recommend the Law Offices of Stuart Handelman to anyone in a similar situation."

“Filing for bankruptcy is not an easy task. Jean Huang truly made the process of my Chapter 13 case filing painless. From day one she explained everything in detail making it very easy for me to understand. Even after my case was confirmed she’s there every time I have a concern or a question. She’s professional, friendly and very intelligent in her profession. Filing for bankruptcy is such a stressful time and Jean has kept me at ease with this entire process. I’ve never had to wait for a long period of time for responses to my emails or calls, as soon as she free she responds, She has never given me poor advice and always treats my case and myself with the utmost respect, and professionalism. If you are in need of a bankruptcy attorney, I highly recommend Jean to handle your case, you won’t be disappointed, she’s the best!”

August 2022

"I first met Stuart when requesting information on bankruptcy, I really didn't know what to expect or do and Stuart and his staff were there the whole way. Even coaching me while meeting with the judge. I was always informed of what was going on each step of the way, which made me feel at ease. They took care of all the paperwork, it was a breeze. I later found myself in need of legal counsel again and Stuart referred me to John Yednock who helped me with the sale of my mobile home. Yet another situation I was clueless in. And again Stuart, John, and the staff were right there to help me through. Couldn't have asked for a better Attorney and his staff is Awesome!!!"

“…Jean Huang was my Chapter 13 attorney for all 60 months! She really earned her money with me. Every single time she responded quickly and took action immediately. I got into a few snags during the 60 months and she was always there to get me out or work them out for me. I would not consider any other attorney for Chapter 13. Phenomenal work from the first day at the hearing and 60 months later when I sent my last payment. Thank You Jean!...”
