They Do their job of getting you through the case but that is all. They only care about getting paid, they dont care to help you. They dont provide you with much information unless its about making your payments. I do not feel helped at all just played around with. They only helpful thing is that they have a call back system but offer little help or information. Emails are left ignored. I would not recommend them to any friends again.
I began my bankruptcy in April 2015 in and it just ended late March 2021. I was told my bankrupt would be about 4 years and it was extended and not one lawyer or paralegal contacted me about any changes or whenever I was getting new lawyers. I would call about updates and not get responses. I was told bankruptcy wasnt to exceed 5 years but mine went to 6 years without an explanation from the lawyer. The only time lawyer contacted me was when they needed me for something other than that I would never know anything unless I inquired. It was as if they say forget the client after they get your money. I had out in several request asking to be notified with updates and changes in my case and they never did. I wish I had never done a bankruptcy because its been pure hell with this company. I wish I could give them zero stars.
I was briefed and not explained in detail. After finalizing the chapter 7 . I get a letter from the IRS stating I owe them after being told I will have a clean slate. I trusted the lawyers there in what was told to me to come to being in the same place I started after finally paying them for there services. My word to whomever is reading this dont conduct anything with them via phone or video.. also be clear to ask questions of all there lines for clarity even the ones you think is clear to you. Have them explain EVERYTHING BEFORE MAKING THE DECISION TO USE THEM FOR WHATEVER REASON YOUR SEEKING.
I had used Debstoppers a few years ago to file bankruptcy. That time they were professional, courteous, efficient and most of all patient. All of my questions and concerns were addressed and the final result was just as they promised!A few years later I found myself needing their services again. This time I was working directly with attorney Mike Miller. Mike was absolutely a Godsend. He explained the process, of filing Chpt 13 and answered my endless questions over and over again (he never tired of my calls/emails). He counseled me on all my options which included filing Chpt 13 and presenting my creditor with a settlement offer.I ended up not filing Chpt 13 but Mike STILL assisted me. He went beyond the call of duty by giving me **free** legal counsel regarding my settlement offer to GM in addition to reviewing the paperwork they sent me. All to ensure I would be receiving what I had hoped for with this creditor - a legal binding settlement that will free me of that debt!Thanks so much for being an A+++ service to our community! I am so grateful! Thanks again!
Ever heard the saying if it’s too good to be true don’t do it.... this is one of them... complete waist of time... they don’t believe in communication skills unless you owe them money..... the judge threw out or case after giving Debt Stoppers 3 chances and we had no clue! they charged us $2500, we made 4 payments, only to find out the case got dismissed by Com-Ed 20 days later (we didn’t even find out from them!!!).... they never called us they never said there was a problem... Asked for a refund because the job wasn’t done... they told us not a chance.look I get it, if you’re going bankrupt 99% of the time you don’t have $1000 laying around for a retainer... all I’m saying is this isn’t the company to go with.... I had to file BK CHAPTER 7 again with new ATTY my credit got hit twice because of it....
The DebtStoppers Team is extremely professional, thorough and respectful. The entire process was clean and painless from the start. Thank you DebtStoppers!
I went there to get help from this law firm. Service was respectful and courteous but they fail in notifying people that their service wasnt for everybody. Im in the process of adjusting my legal situation in this Great Country. I was told that they dont work with people lacking a social security number. I found another law firm that worked with me.
Was one of the most terrible experiences ever. They seem to care more about their money than about you.I was in the process of an eviction, unemployment AND a bankruptcy and they refused to help in any sort of way for me to get through the process without losing it all. But I did at the time, ALL thanks to them wanting their monthly payments for their services.And then theres the harrassing phone calls for money AND their lack of care when you ARE homeless.... and did I mention that my father died as well, and Ive been struggling to deal with that as well? Theres a pandemic going on and Im working part time time trying to survive, pay rent. AND mourn... and all you care about is your money? Heartless and disgusting is what your company is.It was all money, money, money. Terrible. No apology will fix what theyve ever done to me.
I started my bankruptcy in 2015, I have made all schedule payments I compiled with all the courses never missed not one payment in fact I have over paid they owe me money back. So I received a letter saying they our dismissing my case due to a bankruptcy I had in 2011, and it hasn’t been 4 years in between the two, my thing is y’all run my credit and y’all look up all debt before taking our case I’m pretty sure it’s on my credit and some of debts that was listed states they where in a chapter 7 and I also informed them in my initial meeting that I had previously filed on top of that they did not clear all my parking tickets only in my married name I still have 3,000 worth of parking tickets in my maiden name which is also there fault that I just paid a1,000 to get on a payment for cause I couldn’t add that on tothis case I have spent the past 4 in half years paying and working on my credit and paid them over 4,000 to still end up with this result no one has returned any of my calls I been calling for over a week since I received the letter I have a court date for the 16 to dismiss my case I will be in court to the let the judge know what they have done just messed up my whole life that I was trying to get back together and an operator going to say refilling is the only option I would never do business with them at all ever again and they act like they can’t return no calls
Do not go to them!!! I paid off my case in February, and wasnt notified of a closing counseling class I had to take until June when I called. I took the claas and here it is almost January and I still dont have discharge paperwork. Here is a list of other problems I have been facing over the past 2 and a half years,- my attorney was fired or quit or some other circumstance that he was no longer over my case and had originally filed my case wrong.- They raised my payments almost triple by the next year and when I called they basically hinted around about something wrong and that the attorney did. then they put my payments back to a reasonable amount but then I got a letter later that year that says they were going to dismiss my case for lack of payments. When I called they said its because I had not been making the full amount, which was adjusted from when the first time I called, they just never made the adjustments in the system.- then I paid my case off early and I still have not received any discharge paperwork and no one can tell me where its at. (I made the last payment in February)- got garnished by the IRS for money that should have been included in my bankruptcy but according to them it was not and it was because the attorney for debt stoppers filed the case past the deadline. I filed and March 2017, the IRS didnt know until January 2018 the deadline was December 2017 and now Im getting garnished.-also every year I have to give them my tax returns at least three times because they continue to lose them in their office. One attorney will email me for it, I will email it back, the next day another attorney will email me for it Ill email them back and then the third day and a representative will email me for it or call me for it and by that time Im irrate . Why do you keep losing my important documentsCurrently speaking with the legal team and waiting on a resolution which I dont think will be resolved because of their lack of work. Do not go here!!!!!
I originally thought that I would walk in here and feel judged from the moment that I walked through the door. That was completely NOT the case! Everyone was so respectful, helpful, and knowledgeable about information. I personally worked with Ryan who help me get started and he is GREAT! Hes so funny and down to earth! He made me feel at ease and was able to answer all of my questions! There are many talking firms that can help out people but I would definitely refer DEBTSTOPPERS!
I hired this firm to do my Chapter 7 bankruptcy. The entire process was fast, easy and painless. Their fee was realistic for the services I received. They even paid the filing fee up front, so I could file my petition right away. That along with a 6 month payment plan made this very affordable. My attorney was at the 341 meeting when I got there and represented me during the meeting. She did her job. Im waiting for the 60 days to pass and Ill be discharged from $25K in crushing debt. Thank you Semrad Law Firm.
So far my experience has been pleasant. The receptionist were very professional. My paralegal Sully was very attentive, professional and answered all my questions and concerns. I had my first appointment this morning and Sully said she would call me back before the end of the day regarding some documents and she was willing to stay later then her scheduled end time, if I would be able to take the documents back today. I am only giving 4- stars because as I mentioned, today was my first appointment only. I will rate it again once my chapter 7 is complete 👍 By the way no money down was required to file 👍👍
I had an issue but it was solved so Im happy now. Thank you for the prompt call back
This is an agency that has the ability and willingness to exceed your service expectations.I have filed bankruptcy numerous times, with different law groups and this group was the best at handling my questions and providing the most appropriate total solution. They even provided financial suggestions i hadnt anticipated for the future.This group of bankruptcy lawyers are the best to work with.Had I went to Debtstoppers initially, I would have already successfully completed bankruptcy and been at 700 credit score. I am glad I found them and am now on my way to my fulfilling my life goals and dreams.
Wow. My case just closed in October and it appears I have a ton of tickets on a car that was not repossessed which I filed under Chapter 7. Im irrate, considering I paid $1585 for the entire fee. Because of negligence on the part of this company I didnt received the proper paper work until 3 months after I began to wonder why my vehicle hadnt been picked up. The response from the office was its not in our control, yet did not tell the customer that they would have to contact the finance company themselves in the initial meeting. But they surly got paid every cent on time. Never a late payment. The car was finally repossessed in November, I filed in June. Also, get this I now had some odd $700-800 bucks to be paid in tickets that have accrued for expired plates, stickers etc. I would not recommend. They seem nice but once you sign to pay them they are horrible with keeping in contact or informing new clients of the processes. Very unhappy. I would never recommend them. Had I not called it may have possibly been a higher amount to be paid. I also have emails that correspond too my issue mentioned above.
My experience with working with DebtStoppers was incredible. Betty Szwab, Paralegal, was patient and very knowledgeable when working with me. She always had time to answer whatever question I had and returned my phone calls promptly. I cannot express enough how much I appreciate Bettys concern for getting me through my Chapter 13 Bankruptcy. Betty is an awesome individual and I would love to continue working with her. Please express my sincere appreciation to Betty for all her efforts to assist me.
Mike Miller is the best!!! He was able to help me consolidate my debt, save my license and secure my car all at a affordable price. I didnt think I would ever come from under my debt until I came here. Thanks Debt Stoppers, especially Mike Miller for given me a piece of mind.
Filed for bankruptcy through these people and now they cant answer the phone. Ive called all week and nothing. If youre going to take my money at least have the courtesy to answer the damned phone.
Mr. Mike Miller. He has been a perfect example of what your firm is all about and what I believe you want to portray to your clients and potential clients. When filing bankruptcy or dealing with a situation that you have tried all avenues to address, it becomes a very stressful time. Me personally, I have spent over $4,000 to two other law firms trying to address my financial crisis. They turned out not to be as forthcoming or “intelligent” in the area that I needed assistance in and were doing absolutely nothing.Then someone told me, “you should have went to the Semrad Law Firm”… and I did. That is where I met Mike Miller. Of course in our initial meeting, he was so knowledgeable and explained all my options. I left there with less stress. Following up, I did have a really stressful experience, not with Mike, but when it was brought to his attention, he immediately took control of the situation and addressed all my questions, concerns and applied a remedy to my problem with such expertise and intelligence. It was very comforting to know that a person of such intelligence not only as an attorney, but in dealing with people was assisting me. I felt the stress just melt away. Your firm is a very busy firm, and to deal with 100’s of people on a daily basis takes a certain type of person. Mike is one… He is just awesome, that is all I can say.I felt like I needed to tell someone of the awesome experience I have had with Mike Miller and the Semrad Law firm. He is a jewel and I am always one to express my gratitude when someone does an exceptionally awesome job. And that is what he has done. Again, thank you for Mike Miller…. HE IS AWESOME…..
They are all so helpful and very responsive I love them and I will recommend them 100%
Let me start by saying, Debt Stoppers...Awesome! Went to their Downtown location in Chicago. Going in their with Zero direction on how to recovery my credit. I have went to previous Bankruptcy firms but, had a hard time always getting In contact with the lawyers. The were quite inconsistent and lacked communication. After my long journey with dealing with horrible bankruptcy firms. A friend referred me to Debt Stoppers, he had filed Bankruptcy in 2013 with them. He told me the Customer service was impeccable and that hes grateful he had done it with Debt Stoppers. His great feedback about the company motivated me to head over and see what the talk was about. What I loved about Debt Stoppers is that, they tell you what are different options they have for filing bankruptcy and then tell you what fits best for your situation. They didnt force me into anything more so made me feel like I had hope for getting my credit back on track! And so I Filed Chapter 13... Today I can say Thanks! to Debt Stoppers for being consistent with me and communicating with me every step of the way! I am so happy that I took the time to get this bad seed out of my life! So grateful Debt Stoppers helped me gain my Finical Freedom!
Very professional law firm. Everyone was courteous and attentive from start to end. Everything was explained in detail, I came out relieved knowing I would have a fresh start. Thank you Sully Valentin for making the process easy and comfortable.
I had the pleasure of working with cool ass Sully, I cancelled my appointment at first because I was nervous someone was gonna see me that knows me but I finally went in to file. Let me start off by saying Sullys nails were on point! This girl took me into the office told me the process and instead of me having a panic attack she made me feel comfortable like if I was beyonce! Good job Sully and thank you for the great service, tell your boss you deserve a raise from being awesome!
*****SCAM ALERT********They give no information, they just want your money and to charge double of what u owed. People in office are rude and racist. Will not stay in contact or keep you updated about your case until 3 days before it will be dismissed, NEVER FILE WITH DEBTSTOPPERS, REAL NAME DEBT ESCALATORS.
The service I received was outstanding. They made a stressful situation seem like a walk in the park ensures me I was doing the right thing. Everyone especially Renny was courteous, attentive, and professional.
Im very satisfied with the customer service Sully Valentin provided me with. Sully, had the patience to explain the entire process and add a pile of bills that were not on my credit report but she took her time to add them all. She was kind & caring. Thank you, Sully.
Marivel Sandoval and Gabriela Munoz were very professional and super helpful in my 1st visit to the downtown office. I felt very welcomed and was able to get the answers I needed with verifiable information. Thank you both so much!
A pleasure to meet the knowledgeable attorney’s at Debt Stopper’s, not only do they have a professional staff, they are compassionate and understanding. I always recommend Debt Stopper’s and they have had positive experiences and are happy with the results. The attorneys will work with you to determine the best solution for your situation.
My experience so far has been great. Everyone was very helpful and seemed very interested in assisting me with taking care of my issues. Sully Valentin was especially helpful and flexible with our meeting times. I truly appreciate their efforts.
Bankruptcy is never an easy decision and its a stressful situation. When we came to Debt Stoppers we thought it was going to be a lot harder. However, Sully made it an incredible easy and smooth process. Our schedules are a bit hectic, however, she stayed after hours twice to be able to assist us. I definitely recommend Debt Stoppers, their entire staff is extremely helpful and knowledgeable. I cant reiterate how exceptionally efficient Sully has been; her and Michael Miller have been beyond helpful, they quickly respond to my emails and answer all of my questions. I absolutely recommend this law firm!
Im truly happy I selected this law firm to represent me for my case. All the staff members were kind and greeted clients in a friendly way. One employee in particular; Sully Valentin, paralegal provided exemplary customer service! She was helpful, knowledgable, and expeditious!
We worked with Sully, she is phenomenal. She stayed late to accommodate us in every way she could. I was scare to file bankruptcy, but Sully made a smooth process. They are very professional and without doubt recommend them if you ever need to file bankruptcy.
I am so relieved with the work that was done. Sully really helped me understand and feel relaxed through the process. Im very pleased
Debt Stoppers are a Joke I only gave it 1 ⭐️ Because you can’t give i them no ⭐️ Don’t waste your ⏱or $$ if you 👀them coming 🏃🏾♂️ Fast the other way straight garbage I’m speaking on the behalf of a l close love one who did past business with you guys I will never do any business with y’all or refer any body I know 👍🏽
My experience with Debt Stoppers was positive thanks to Betty Szwab paralegal. It is very stressful to be forced into bankruptcy but Betty was able to put my mind at ease. She was knowledgeable, considerate and always followed up with me when I had a question or concern. She should be commended for her outstanding client services. Thank you Betty!!!
I was a little uneasy about filing bankruptcy but Megan made me feel comfortable. She was very friendly and professional I would recommend her to everyone who has to file bankruptcy. Debt Stoppers is giving me a second chance to get it right ... Praise God!!!
If I could give them ZERO stars, I would. Do not spend your money here! Run! They treat you like a Queen as theyre coaxing you to sign a contract with them. Then, as soon as they get that money deducted from your pay check it all changes. I filed a bankruptcy in 2013. I needed to contact my attorney Jaime Torres to send an approval to buy a used car to get to work. I could not contact him or his office. The gas company turned my gas off a year after the bankruptcy was filed, I called my lawyer again. He told me to call the gas company and give them my case number. I thought that was his job but I wound up having to do all the legwork myself. He did nothing!!! The trustee threatened to dismiss my case, I could not contact my lawyer again. Their lawyers are useless. If you have to file bankruptcy, do it yourself. Youll save money.
My experience with Debt Stoppers was very good from start to finish. I was treated with respect and what I thought was going to be very messy and complicated, was really smooth and fluid. My taxes were repaired and filed which was such a great help.I was especially impressed by the service and understanding of Ms, Sully Valentin whos professionalism put to rest most of my worries. She even went so far as to help me with a change in my payment schedule so, it would coincide with a sudden change in my pay period.I hope that my relationship debt stoppers will continue to be the same throughout.SincerelyEduardo Espinosa
My name is Walter & my case just got discharged recently. Sully Valentin Ordaz made sure all paperwork was filed correctly and any questions i had was answered. I recommend Debtstoppers to anyone filing Chapter 13.
My attorney Roger Leshinsky has been the best throughout the whole process. Whenever I have a problem or a question, he comes to the rescue and helps with it. By far the best decision Ive made and hes wonderful! Please ask for him and tell him I sent you!!! Thank you Roger!
Besides the wait I had to experience, they are a very good company. I am currently filling bankruptcy for the second time with them. I wouldnt have went anywhere else because Dept Stoppers actually care about their clients and wants to make sure each and every client is happy. I am very happy I made the decision to come to them.
To look up one day and see all that you have tried to work for going doing the tubes because you are not able to keep up with the minimum payments on your bills is embarrassing. You are left feeling like a complete failure and that your life have been worthless.You try and try to get ahead, but finally you come to the conclusion and make one of the hardest decision of your life (File for Bankruptcy) which leaves devastated. But somewhere in the midst of all this mess you come across a genuinely kind and gentle person like Betty Szwab. My only contact with her was through email, but there was such a comforting theme to them. She was, kind, gentle, sincere and seemed to understand what I was going through. Bettys emails did not have the tone of being tired or frustrated at my many, many, really a whole lot of questions.Betty didnt just answer my questions, she made sure I understood what was happening and why it was happen. I am so grateful for all her help in getting me back on track.Thank you Betty and Debtstoppers.
My experience was good and smooth. I worked with Betty Szwab and she was always attentive and answered any questions I had within 24 hours. I would recommend this firm to others.
Omg my life was In Chaos I did not know which way to turn or which way to go until I found out about bent stoppers!!!Paralegal Betty Szwab is absolutely amazing!!! She is extremely intelligent, knowledgeable and kind!!! She’s very efficient in getting the job done!!! She’s always here to help and she replies back to all phone calls and emails promptly!!! She is definitely the heartbeat of my experience and getting my life back on track!!!With out her and her Amazing team I wouldn’t know what to do!!! Forever grateful!!!Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!!
I had the pleasure of meeting with Ryan P. Crotty to handle my case and he made the process very enjoyable. very upbeat and personable! The daunting task was much less stressful than anticipated.
Sully is so helpful and supersonic quick while still accurate. She was very helpful and even stayed late for me to bring additional documents. She went above and beyond.
I met with Angie. She was knowledgeable, friendly, and able to answer all of my questions. The filing process was quick & she helped guide me though the process.
Went in with my mom to inquiry about filing bankruptcy yesterday and the front desk was extremely nice Arlene helped answer all my questions will be filing with them soon

You all have a lot of bad reviews?... Whats going on??..Well I might as well look somewhere else to file bankruptcy!..Thanks for the Reviews
She a very nice lady real helpful and she does her job right Gabriela Munoz
My experience with Debitstoppers was great. The attorney I worked with was Angelica Harb. She was very informative. She answered all of my questions and when I called her regarding other questions I had she called me right back.
I have been working with Betty Szwab during my Chapter 13 process. She has been very helpful with me during this process. She kept me informed of everything that was going on with my case. She worked with me as I transitioned to a different job and when I was out of work. I learned a lot about my finances during the Chapter 13 process.Thank you Betty and the Debt Stoppers team.
Chris Pryor was so helpful excellent customer service he went over everything with me answered all my questions got all my paperwork done will recommend Im extremely a satisfied customer thanks Chris
The complaints are true. Just had another not so good experience with them while trying to reach my attorney who hasnt responded to my email or calls in probably over 5 months. I dont believe those positive comments are real, if so why is there a drastic difference in peoples experiences with the same company. As well I see the law office posted thanks to customers with positive reviews but I see no comments addressing negative posts, or asking how there customers can be won over by correcting what issues may be mentioned. Just doesnt read as though they value the customer and the time and money they put in for choosing to do business with them. Shame.
I used them before and this time I am very displeased. It takes forever for them to call you back. My payment was reject and they had the never to sick one of the other attornies on me to demand payment. My attorney already knew what was happening then you play me like that cant wait to pay them off. It is okay because this is the last time I will use them. The no money down was a life saver but the limited communication is
Meghan was great! She deserves a 5 star award. Her customer service was impeccable and her attitude was enlightening. She truly broghtened up my day! Thanks Debtstoppers!
Mr.porter was great at getting me a fast and affordable solution i will refer anyone to debt stoppers they are great thanks guys.
I had help by renny with debtstoppers he was very helpful thanks for ur support renny !!
Hi this is for Sully Valentin thank you so much for your help its really good to know that there are people out here like you keep up your good work
Their staff and attorneys were very helpful professional, curteous and knowledgeable. I would recommend this firm to others. Thanks Mr Semrad!
I always recommend Debt Stopper’s and they have had positive experiences and are happy with the results. The attorneys will work with you to determine the best solution for your situation.
Sully is a fine para legal and wonderful person as well she indeed is a credit to her profession
I prefer this company because I deal with them before.They are so polite.I think everyone need to deal with them.They fully removed my frustration. They are really debt stoppers.Thanks them for supporting me!!!
Great experience from the time i exited the elevator on floor 28. Really felt a warm welcome from friendly receptionist. A piece of mind with the excellent helpful paralegal Sully Valentin and a sense of relief after speaking with Attorney Ann. Walk in feelin depressed leave out spirit at its best at The Semrad Law Firm, LLC
Sergio CoronaWas great and very helpful with my case and making sure I understand how debt stoppers work to clean up my credit
I was assisted By Sully Valentin and she was awesome she made the experience smooth and easy, she was very professional and I would rate her with ten stars if I could!!!
My experience with Debtstoppers was remarkable! My case was just discharged this week. I feel so relieved that I don’t have to worry about that Debt anymore. If it wasn’t for Ms. Betty Szwab at Debtstoppers working with me, responding promptly to my emails and phone calls, I wouldn’t have made it this far. She was able to consolidate my Debt and put me back on track. Thank you so much Betty Szwab! You are awesome! She deserves a raise. If I ever need help again I will definitely contact Debtstoppers again.
I used them back in May 2016 they dismissed my case because of a discrepancy with my payroll department however the funds were being sent to the trustee but not applied to my account. I had to refile today and pay $500 and they have $500 of my money thats not applied to anything yet I havent gotten it back. Then to top it off I filed today at 9am the lady says Ill send you your email and proof by 2pm so I can send it my creditors Ive been calling since 1:15pm cant get through to anyone and no return calls so they took my $500 and I have no proof I even filed today!!!!! This is not professionalism!
Sully Valentin was very helpful she took the time to explain everything she was very thorough and very patient,as I had no knowledge on bankruptcy.I thank you Sully for always replying to my emails and being so very helpful!!!!!
Sully Valentin was my Paralegal, Shes a very good listener gave me so much patience she had great customer service i give her 5 stars
Megan and Angelica were great they made the scary process very easy they helped me get a fresh start... Thanks
I dont understand if Im done paying my monthly fees why are they still taking payments from my account. All i have. to do is the two hour course i have pay 20 dollars for to be released .
I filed w/Amy Gerstein and she was thorough and patient and a true Godsend when I ran into a few snags, she was prompt and courteous in her service and made the experience much easier than it could have been!
Ryan p crotty was very helpful and friendly and put me at ease in my time of need, wonderful and fast paced in the process as well as very professional I appreciate the service he provided today
Its one thing to come to work just to get paid, its another to come to work because you love your job. Jasmine Kimbrough does that, she loves her job, her personality is warm and caring. I would call her for every little thing, when a creditor is harassing me or when I get those robo calls, she always gives me that reassure that everything is fine and that I dont have to worry about anything. She always gives me that follow-up call to let me know that she reached out to those creditors/robo callers (if they gave a real number)and that I should not have to worry about them calling me again. Thanks Rico and Debt Stoppers for hiring a person that cares about my needs.Thanks Sandra Taylor
I have had the same paralegal since I filed. She always gets back to me with with an answer no matter how many times I call. Kenya helped me stay in my case when I was laid off. She knows how to break things down so you can understand and make your next move. Hopefully I will never have to file again but I do Im at debtstoppers.
Absolutely terrible. Once theyve received their money, Theyll never respond to calls or return calls. The Joliet office is worse as theyre never open and when they are, they treat you as if you are somehow bothering them. They loose paperwork, provide no support for motions. More than often, I find myself addressing issues with the Trustee on my own. My trustee actually recommend that I sue this organization for mal-practice, which Im pursuing. WARNING, STAY CLEAR OF THIS FIRM AT ALL COSTS. Theyll simply make a bad situation worse.
I had the best experience with Dept Stoppers. They made this difficult transition in my life seamless. The paralegal, Betty Szwab was very responsive to my emails and knowledgeable if I had questions. In addition, she took the time and sent a follow up email to ensure I was doing okay during this process. Last but not least, the attorneys did an exceptional job. I cant remember them all but I rememberAnthony K.Even with that being said if an individual needs to file for bankruptcy, I would strongly encourage Dept Stoppers.
Ms. Zully was a great help towards our case. Also, she was nice, and friendly.
They never answer the phone and when they finally call back 4 hours later theyre rude took my husband information said theyll call back 2 hours later still waiting on the call.
Thanks to Miss Sully Valentin my experience was awesome. I definitely recommend her.
So far my experience working with DebtStoppers was nice . Megan Paralegal, was patient and very knowledgeable when working with me. So Im looking forward to finish up things with them.
Debt Stoppers was the best. Stress released and I really appreciate their service
Ms sully valentn was very. Help. To me. Thanks for all the help in take time out your besy today to help me
I agree 200% with those who commented they treat you very well while in the process of filing, but once you pay and become a client you can forget about it!!! They are very unprofessional from the time you walk through the front door/receptionist. Ive went through this place Chicago/Western Ave and have dealt with several attorneys/assistants etc., all the same and when you call them YES they act like youre bothering them and they treat you like their the debt collectors!! Ive called to discuss a late payment (s) and they could careless they dont bother to suggest modification etc., This place is horrible and I write this from a professional standpoint & not an angry client view. I would never ever refer them.
My experience was great. They took care of everything, now Im on the path to having a great credit score.They were very helpful and very quick with my chapter seven and very reasonable with the payment thanks debtstoppers.
Hi,We are MC & Thenther Lawrence we filed Chapter 13 bankrupt 3 years ago to avoid loosing our home, we finished in September 2016. it was a long road but we saved our house................Betty was our paralagal she always called me back and walked me through things that i didnt understand.i wish i could have done with out this process, but Ms Betty was the best
Great service and life saving advice! My Associate Attorney Ryan Crotty was just the person I needed to work with during what can be a difficult time. Things were really great last year and got really bad really fast this year...filing this put the breaks on what would have been an even longer harder drop. Ryan was patient and very pleasant, he loves what he does...he loves helping people! And during some of the scariest moments of my life...Ryan was there offering real concrete advice and understanding without judgement how fast things can drop and unforgiving creditors can be...the landlord forgot the on time payments...and when he got crazy in the process of my move...Ryan said the law office well call... when I was scared about the car getting reposed, Ryan called late night on a Saturday with the file number and told me what to do next. I took some leaps to get to the next level and I dropped some pegs...but now I have a fresh start and I will carefully climb back up...Thanks to Ryan and Debtstoppers!
I have to say that this place was a life saver and was very helpful .. the attorney Ryan P. Crotty is the most helpful, optomisitc and most professional attorney I have ever meet in my life .. Even when he was busy and had a hand full of files on his way to his office he would stilll stop when people asked him questions to answer them .. returned phone calls and emails on time ..even on a Monday .. thank you so much Ryan ..i now have my car and license back .. because of your hard effort i can now go back to work and continue supporting my family ..from Isaac Rojas
I had an great experience with the attorney Angelica Harb she was very nice and explain everything good.
My overall process with this bankruptcy has been stressful, but what I will say is Elise Mims & Betty Szwab did respond to emails with important information, and I must say that you guys ROCK! Had it not been for you two I dont think I would have made it thus far because both of you at least kept me afloat! Before I was able to get in contact with someone direct it was very hard to get updated information about my case and going into the office on 111th & western was a pure waist of time. Im so happy that I finally have been discharged after a lengthy 3 years. In my honest opinion I would not recommend debt stoppers. It seems in the beginning theyre so helpful to get you signed up but after that if you dont do your own leg & ground work it seems that youre setting yourself up for failure. Also if you miss any important steps like submitting your yearly tax return,debt exit class, or anything of importance regarding your bankruptcy they will send a letter saying that your case will be dismissed. People do your research before you sign up for bankruptcy.K.Ross
Megan holmes was very helpful to me and my husband on getting us started on the road of recovery with our life.with debtstopers
Im glad i went to Debt Stoppers they made me feel reassured that I made the right decision in filing, they were very attentive and answered every question i had.
Working with debstoppers is great despite my current circumstances. I worked with Ryan Crotty and he was a absolute pleasure. He was professional, courteous and honest. Highly recommend working with them. One hundred times better than my experience with Peter Francis Geraci at Geraci they treated me like an inconvenience instead of a client. Thanks again Ryan and debstoppers.
Debt Stoppers really came through and stopped the bank from taking my work truck away and have me some breathing room with the bank. I would recommend them to anyone who needs help with a potential repo.
My experience has been excellent..i filed with no money down and made monthly payments and just finished my last one!! hopefully my dismissal papers will arrive soon!
Sully is a magnificent representative of DebtStoppers because she helped me a lot during my case.
