Christine Thurston is awesome, fast and efficient. She's very knowledgeable and makes a complicated situation so stress free. She's made herself available to me whenever I contacted her. It was hard trying to find a good bankruptcy lawyer but I'm glad I found her...

Christine was wonderful to work with when I had to file Ch 7. She is very responsive and knowledgeable about the laws and procedures pertaining to filing and what to do afterwards to get yourself back on track again. I would certainly recommend her services and assistance if you need a Bankruptcyattorney.

First time filing bankruptcy, so I had no idea what I was getting myself into or what to expect. Christine answered all my questions, walked me though the process (so I knew what to expect), and made herself available not just during business hours but whenever I might need to contact her. She offered two payment options which is helpful for anyone who may be experiencing money difficulties. With Christine you are more than just another case for her. She's reliable, smart, and empathetic. I hope I never need to go through the process again, but if I did she would be my first choice. Thank you so much. For making a scary and intimidating event that much easier to handle.

FAQs
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
My typical process is to first have a phone call with the potential client. In that call, I will ask questions about the person's financial situation to determine if bankruptcy is the right option for them. If they do qualify and it's a good course of action for them, I will inform them of the process and what they would need to gather in order to file.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have my Juris Doctorate in Law and also am licensed to practice law in Illinois.
What types of customers have you worked with?
I work with people from all different walks of life who have one thing in common- they have fallen on hard times. Bankruptcy gives people a fresh start so they can take back their lives.
