My Chapter 7 Bankruptcy was just discharged the day before my 60th Birthday and what an Amazing Gift! A Brand New Start! I have Harout and everyone at Wadhwani & Shanfeld to thank! I felt at ease the very first day I walked into their offices. Highly professional, answered any and all questions and with immediate response and they even allowed me to make monthly payments as I was a little short on funds. I HIGHLY recommend Wadhwani & Shanfeld! And thank you Harout!!

Cannot thank enough for all the great help of the staff working at Wadhwani and Shanfeld. The staff made the information easily accessible online. Mr. Shanfeld made it possible for me to become debt free and I will recommend him to everyone.

Mr. Shanfeld and his team were amazing from start to finish. The process was so smooth that I often forgot I was even in bankruptcy. They handled everything, and were always available for questions. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for an experienced firm of qualified professionals to handle their case. I went to them based on other reviews and was fully impressed and thankful I chose them. Thank you to everyone at the Shanfeld office for getting me through this difficult chapter in my life.

This review is for Raj Wadhwani of Wadhwani & Shanfeld

Bottom line:

Super fast response rate: if you are considering filing bankruptcy, I am sure you have a lot of questions just like I did. Those questions may not all come to you at once -- they may come before you file or weeks later. Regardless of when, Raj was excellent at responding directly, often within minutes, to any questions. To me, this is an almost unquantifiable benefit when you are considering or going through the process of bankruptcy.

Knowledge and experience: my case involved over six figures of credit card debt and pending out-of-state lawsuits, so needless to say I was searching for a very competent attorney. Raj was able to stop the lawsuits before any adverse action was taken and file my petition effectively to minimize any risk of objection.

Cost: Raj was neither the cheapest nor the most expensive of the attorneys I contacted (and I contacted a bunch). I would urge anyone considering the marginal benefit of spending a few hundred more to consider heavily how important the two factors above are to you.

I was going to write an elaborate review but honestly, the one thing that I think about when I think about Wadhwani & Shanfeld is just how awesome they are, both on the individual and firm level.

I submitted a request for information regarding bankruptcy and Greg Shanfeld reached out to me via phone immediately, probably not even an hour or two after my request was submitted.

It wasn’t until I spoke with Greg that, for the first time in years, I felt that there was a way out of my debt. Let’s face it, nobody wants to declare bankruptcy. Realizing that you have to consider bankruptcy as an option sucks, it truly does. Just like any major thing in life, you live and you learn. The greatest thing about speaking to Greg about my situation was that he not only was able to put into words what I was feeling (that I was essentially living to pay the cards), but he also didn’t judge me. Throughout our phone conversation, Greg took the details that I provided him about my specific situation and used them to give me more information about my options and what the entire bankruptcy process would be life. Greg was extremely articulate, answered all of my questions, and simplified the entire bankruptcy process to make sure that I understood what was going to happen next and in the future.

Perhaps the greatest thing that I picked up in my initial conversation with Greg is that he truly does want to help. He understands not only the legal aspect of the bankruptcy process, but the emotional one as well. People going through the bankruptcy process are anxious, scared, etc., and Greg gets that. He truly wants to help his clients gain a new slate and that’s exactly what he did for me.

From start to finish, my bankruptcy process took 5 months. The fees were extremely reasonable and Greg allows for it to be made in payments (though I’d advise anybody to pay it off ASAP). 5 months for a clean slate and lessons learned, sign me up.

Complimenting Greg is his partner and the firm’s staff. When Greg wasn’t available, his partner Raj Wadhwani gladly saw me, answered my questions, and picked up where Greg left off. Jocelyn, the firm’s legal assistant, was amazing in her communication and in answering both misc. and specific questions regarding the bankruptcy process. When my questions were complicated and best explained via phone, she didn’t hesitate to give me a call.

All in all, I HIGHLY recommend Wadhwani & Shanfeld to anybody that is looking to go through the bankruptcy process, or even just has questions regarding the process. Their professionalism, knowledge, and empathy is UNMATCHED.

Working with Greg Shanfeld and his team was a rewarding experience. Professional and detailed in every way, I had no concerns before, during and after my Chap 7 filing and discharge. I considered lower-cost attorneys before deciding on Wadhwani & Shanfeld, and I definitely made the correct decision going with their great firm.

I cannot begin to say enough great things about this firm and in particular, Raj Wadhwani. I had so much trepidation when I first considered filing bankruptcy and I was continually impressed by how professional, prepared, and learned and reassuring this team was. I feel so grateful to have had a principal at my side the entire process and the rest of th all their staff is pretty rockin' . My life is so much better.

GUIDING LIGHT

I would like to focus my endorsement of Raj and W&S on what it meant to me PERSONALLY. My husband (Bob Seymore.) also wrote a referral that delves more into the complications of our case and the great competence involved by W&S in achieving our very positive outcome. I recommend you also read his endorsement.

At the time of our bankruptcy filing, I had developed work related medical issues relating to my 20 year job. I was no longer able to work, and we could no longer afford our house and other payments, along with substantial additional medical bills. I was taking medications during this period and I just wanted to avoid dealing with complex and stressful issues (and our bankruptcy was a quite complicated situation)
To my great good fortune, Raj and W&S were able to put my mind at ease; and I felt from the very first conversation that we were in good hands and could put our faith in them. Raj was very patient and understanding of our circumstances, and took as much time as necessary to explain the complicated issues to us.
At every step we were reassured that everything was being ANTICIPATED and was being TAKEN CARE OF. The day of the bankruptcy hearing could have been extremely stressful for me. But I went in to it with CONFIDENCE; feeling certain that there would not be any problems, and there were not any.
We could not have hoped for any better outcome; and we could not have had any better representation. I sincerely recommend you consider Raj and W&S if you are looking for the COPENTENCE to get the job done, while at the same time having someone to be ON YOUR SIDE that CARES.

KNOWLEDGE AND REPUTATION

First off, let me say that my wife and I had probably as complicated a situation involving bankruptcy as you are likely to find. Like many couples in California, we depended on two incomes to pay our mortgage, and other monthly payments. My wife developed a job related illness, and was no longer able to work. As a consequence; with a single income and additional medical costs, we could no longer afford to live in California. We were in the process of selling our California home and purchasing a much more affordable home in Nevada when we began the bankruptcy process.
We had some modest savings, and other assets that had to properly be accounted for and utilized correctly. Additionally, there are precise timing and other considerations when filing bankruptcy in one state while in the process of moving to another. Moreover, the bankruptcy laws in general are very complicated, and in many cases are counter-intuitive. If you are considering filing for bankruptcy you NEED an attorney and a GOOD ONE.
There were a substantial amount of details, that we fully discussed, and strategized with our primary attorney Raj Wadhwani. We were then able to put in place a step by step plan to achieve the best possible outcome. I say that Raj was our primary attorney (and he deserves the lion’s share of the credit for the successful outcome) but the fact is we really felt we had a full team working for us. On several occasions I also spoke to Greg Shanfeld, and had a number of additional conversations with the associate attorneys and support staff.
It is worth noting that despite the additional complications involved (and therefore additional time and effort required) there were no additional charges, as W&S operate on a flat fee basis.
So, in the end, there were a number of issues that could have been challenged by the bankruptcy Trustee. But not only had we covered all the bases in advance, but it was clearly evident to me that the Trustee’s experience was that W&S would be thorough, and would do things CORRECTLY. In other words, my attorney had a REPUTATION to KNOW AND TO DO the right thing. Our case was settled promptly, and with the best outcome we could ever had hoped for.
I’ll sum it up like this; if you have a simple case, you SHOULD use W&S, if you have a complicated case you MUST use W&S. There is simply no substitute for having the KNOWLEDGE to get the job done, and the REPUTATION for doing just that.
For a more personal insight I would also recommend you read my wife’s endorsement (Judi S,)

My financial situation worsened when I got laid of from my former employer. I called Raj Wadhwani for assistance and his firm really outdid themselves. From the very first meeting I had with Raj, I felt at ease and confident about the process and my financial future. Raj, outlined the process from our initial meeting, through hearing and finally discharge and he and his team never disappointed me. I am grateful for their expertise and professionalism. They was always just a phone call away. With helpful assistants and stellar support staff, Wadhwani & Shenfeld are a top rate firm that can help you through the most difficult of financial situations. I would highly recommend them to everyone in need of a fresh financial start!

We just got great news that our case has been discharged! What a relief! I can tell you that throughout the whole process of our bankruptcy case, my husband and I felt very at ease knowing that Greg Shanfeld and his team were on top of everything! Greg and his team always took the time to talk with us and explain everything and answer any questions that we may have. My only regret is not coming to him sooner, we would have saved ourselves years of worry and anxiety! Thank you for helping us through this process, I believe we made the right decision.... and now it's on to rebuilding our future and never looking back!! I will definitely recommend Wadhwani & Shanfeld Law Firm to my family and friends!!

My experience with bankruptcy was devastating until I contacted Wadhwani & Shanfeld. The kindness, understanding and consistent reassurance that everything was going to be okay is what helped me deal with one of the most challenging experiences in my life. They answered every phone call from collectors and stood ground for me when I was at my weakest. They performed exactly as they promised from start to finish. I am most grateful for their support.

Wadhwani and Shafeld did an excellent job with my chapter 7 filling! prior to calling Wadhwani's office i had a garnishement in effect.with all the stress that i had i searched and read a few reviews from other BK sites prior to making a big decision. it took a me a week before calling Wadhwani office.i should have called sooner. Raj Wadhwani explained in detail of the process of filling CHPTR7 . Once filled i was always informed and if i has questions, they were always answered. 3 to 4 months later i was debt free!!! i can say that I'm stress free and happy with my decision of calling Wadhwani and Shanfeld. hope this helps you in making a decision. Thank you.

Dear Greg,
Thank you for your assistance with our financial situation. After continuing medical issues, we fell behind in our payments to all of our creditors. We applied for a Home Loan Modification. We were offered 3 or 4 modifications from our lender, which were still unaffordable. As a result, our house went into foreclosure. This became a very stressful time for our family.
We heard you on the radio and called for an appointment. Your law firm was very professional and sympathetic to our situation. Our first priority became saving our home. We immediately filed Chap 13 because we wanted to work out a plan to pay our creditors. Originally, we were able to make some of the payments, and then when medical issues arose again, we were unable to continue.
We had to change our bankruptcy to a Chapter 7. We were able to discharge all of our debt and the second mortgage on our home was completely wiped out. When our bankruptcy was discharged we applied again for a home loan modification. Soon after our discharge date our lender offered a home modification reducing our monthly payment by $1500 and because we were upside down in our mortgage, they also offered us a principal reduction in excess of $200,000.
We thank God for you for walking us through this entire difficult process. We now are current in our mortgage and our living expenses no longer exceed our income. I have recommended your firm and shall continue to recommend your firm because you all are knowledgeable in this entire process, you know how to help your clients remain calm throughout the entire process and your staff is very courteous.
Thank You Again
A Relieved Family

I was referred to Greg Shanfeld by my broker. I found him to be extremely knowledgeable and helpful. He got on my case right away and also met me at my point of need. He got everything done quickly and efficiently and I am more more than satisfied. I would not hesitate to recommend him and his company to others.
