Like most people, I struggled with making the decision to file for a Chapter 7. I did a very thorough review of all of the bankruptcy firms out there. Consistently, the Kaplan Law Firm kept showing up with overwhelmingly positive reviews and experiences. I called their office to set up an appointment for a free consultation and met with Fran. Fran was very understanding, helpful and patient with me as I discussed my situation with him. He answered all of my questions and addressed thoroughly any concerns that I had as we went over everything. He is extremely knowledgeable and walked me through what the entire process would be. At no time whatsoever was I pushed or pressured to make a decision on the spot. After 2 weeks ofthinking about going forward with the process, I decided to use Kaplan with Fran representing me. And I couldnt have been happier! ALL phone calls and emails were responded to immediately and never had to wait more than a minute to hear from him. Fran and all the staff did such an excellent job with everything from start to finish. I would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone without any reservations at all!! Thank you Fran, Carlie and Josephina!!!!

Just want to start off by saying how amazing Rae Kaplan, Josephine and Carlie have been. Kaplans firm is without a doubt the most professional firm I have came across. They respond very quickly and were always happy to answer any questions or concerns that I had, and they truly have your best interest at heart! Before I was referred to Kaplan, I did my research and found a few other lawyers, but I was rejected due to the high amount of student loans that I had. Rae went above and beyond by helping me modify a private student loan decreased by about 70% of the original amount!!!! I can’t begin to express the financial relief she has given me and my family. I will forever be grateful to her and her staff!

Deciding to file for bankruptcy isn’t the easiest decision. Kaplan’s team not only took their time to walk me through the entire process but made me feel absolutely comfortable with the decision I was making. Fran has a genuine approach and at no time did I ever feel like I was being lead in the wrong direction. I would recommend Kaplan over and over to anyone who is contemplating on filing or has made the decision to file. Fran thank you and the Kaplan Law Firm for taking great care of me.

I sought the service from Attorney Rae Kaplan and her staff to assist in getting approximately $178,000 in college tuition forgiven after paying approximately $175,000. Ms. Kaplan and her staff were patient and very thorough in researching every option and opportunity. She is the real honest deal. Through her knowledge, we were able to get the complete loan forgiven. God Bless her and her staff (especially Carly and Josephina). She provided some hope when I really needed it. Thank you

This was my second time doing Bankruptcy . Atty Fran treated us like family he answered all our concerns. The process took less than 2 months with complete filing for me and my wife. It was a smooth transition which gave us peace of mind when it was all over. This over came the stress of being quarantine during covid-19. The best thing is that they understand your pocket situation and the are willing to go the extra mile to work with you. They respond immediately to emails and phone calls. your the best Fran .... friend for life.

I had a wonderful and amazing experience here. They helped me fix my student loan problems with ease. I was sure I was going to have to declare bankruptcy or have my wages garnished, but nothing bad happened at all. They explained everything very clearly to me, and were willing to work with me on paying their bill. 100% A+ outstanding job. Highly recommended.

My experience with Rae and the team was fantastic! I never felt bad nor uninformed. They were very responsive. By the way, the paralegal they have by the name of Josefina is the one I had to deal with on several occasions, she was fantastic, VERY knowledgeable, responsive and understanding! Overall, my experience with this firm was excellent and Id highly recommend Rae and their team!

I had a great experience with Ms. Kaplan and her staff.They did everything they said they were going to do and in a timely manner.Whenever I called or emailed them they responded right away.I would highly recommend Kaplan Law Firm!

Ms. Kaplan and her team are effective and kind professionals. I highly recommend this law firm.

First let me start out by saying that Rae Kaplan and her staff are the best! They helped me when filing my bankruptcy from the beginning to the end. I couldnt decide which direction I should take seeing that I suffer with CKD. My medical bills were mounting and collection agency were calling me literally everyday. Rae and her team spent numerous hours in going over all my debt I had incurred. They even called me to check on my health while becoming sick during my bankruptcy. I cant think of any attorney nor staff who would have checked on their client the way Rae and her staff did so. All I can say is that my bankruptcy went well without any delays. I am now debt free and living a life of good health. Rae Kaplan and her team are the best! Professional, Caring, and Compassionate!

THIS LAW FIRM IS A RIP OFF, I FIRED THEM OVER 2 YEARS AGO AND THEY CONTINUED TO TAKE MONEY FOR SERVICES THEY NOLONGER PROVIDE TO ME... THEN THEY LIE TO PEOPLE THINKING THEY DONT KNOW ANY BETTER AND WHEN YOU FIND OUT THEY STILL TRY TO COVER IT UP... I AM GOING TO BLOG EVERYWHERE ABOUT THE HORRIBLE SERVICES YOU ALL PROVIDE TO PEOPLE... MAKE SURE IF YOU DO BUSINESS WITH THIS LAW FIRM ANY PAPERWORK KEEP IT AND RECORD ALL PHONES CALLS BECAUSE ITS NOTHING BUT A BUNCH OF CROOKED ATTORNEYS WHO ARE FOR THEMSELVES NOT YOU AND THEY ARE ONLY ABOUT TAKING YOUR MONEY

Kaplan Law Firm is by far the best bankruptcy firm in Chicago and the surrounding areas. As a therapist, I often get clients who have serious financial troubles and dont know where to turn. Ms. Kaplan can go over options to make their lives easier. She has saved homes, wiped out debt and made their lives so much more manageable. A complete fresh start! I have yet to hear of a client who didnt love her and have a life changing experience. I thank Kaplan for helping my clients thrive during financial crisis.

My experience with the firm has been fantastic. The staff, Rae, and Fran are fantastic, attentive, and respond to an inquiries promptly. I highly recommend.

I had a great experience with Kaplan Law Firm. They helped me reduce my student loan payments by over 90%. The process was seamless, and I highly recommend them for anyone facing the burden of student loan debt.

I filed a chapter 7 in 2014. Awesome service.

Excellent legal services with a highly knowledgeable team that takes the time to understand the differences on a case by case basis. Highly recommended.

We cant be more disappointed in this law firm. My wife was paying on a school loan. She applied for the loan and was approved for the loan in September and she didnt receive the paperwork for the loan until December, after she enrolled and was already in classes. It said she would pay $42,000 on a $12,000 loan. She cancelled school right away and was in school less than 31 total days. She has been paying on this loan for a number of years. I spent countless days looking for information about others who experienced this. I didnt find anybody with the same experience, but I found quite a bit of information about getting rid of school loans by Rae Kaplan Law firm. I decided if anyone would know what to do, she would. Boy was I wrong! We made an appointment, paid the $100 consultation fee to see her. Saw her assistant Adam. We presented ALL of our original documents from the school. He had never seen this kind of thing before, but presented some ideas. We were pretty hopeful. He said it could be an easy phone call or take them to court for a small fee of about $1500 max. He had to talk to Rae, show her the copies he made of our documents and come up with a solution. He said he would get back to us in 2 business days. 5 days later we emailed Adam. he said he forwarded the notes to Rae and would get back to us. Another 6 days went by and we emailed them again with no response. So another 5 days later we emailed the secretary and Adam, wondering why we are being ignored. Rae finally calls us and tells us she can take the loan company to court and charge us $4,000 to settle the debt and pay them a lump sum. We asked why this is different from what Adam said and she said I dont know what you signed. So she never even read all of the documents that we physically brought downtown to her office for them to read. This is the best part. They were supposed to make copies. We didnt notice until a few weeks ago that multiple documents were missing from our file, as well as they gave us some of the copies back and also gave us copies of copies. We reached out to them and they informed me that Adam no longer worked for them and said they would look for the papers and get back to us in a few days. When we reached out again, my wifes email to the secretary was blocked! She used another email address and Rae responded a day later saying that they were unable to find them and Sorry for the inconvenience. So we basically payed them, spent a day downtown, only for them to ignore us and lose our paperwork. Now any case we had is ruined.

The greatest not complicated professional firm to handle your case.
