On March 23rd, 2018 I have contacted Geraci Law Firm located at 4218 N Cicero Ave, Chicago, IL 60641 , to file for bankruptcy. I have paid them a partial amount of $900 then I couldn't continue filing the case because I lost my job. They promised to refund the $900 since then but they never did. Which is not a fair business practice. I believe since my case has never been filed by Geracy Law Firm, I deserve a refund. I called them many times but they still refused to give me a refund of the $900. They need to refund me. They charge double of the price DEBTSTOPPERS asked for. I recommend DEBTSTOPPERS because they even filed my case right away before I started making any payments. read more

I went to Geraci Law Firm for a consultation and left very disappointed. The attorney I met with came across as rude and offered little to no real help or guidance. I felt rushed instead of supported. To make things worse, when I was leaving, no one acknowledged me or even offered a simple goodbye. First impressions matter, and unfortunately, this experience left me feeling unwelcome and like my concerns weren't taken seriously." read more

First off, a slight history: about ten years ago I worked for a law firm that did home foreclosures. We came across Gerarci Law scores of times, or, more accurately, their hapless clients. I heard so many tales of Geraci clients who could not get in touch with their attorney or they were not getting complete answers that it had already soured my opinion of them. Fast forward to now. I've left the legal field for good but after contracting cancer I found myself absolutely bogged down with bills and in threat of losing my car and my apartment. I did a search for BK attorneys and his is the first name that comes up. I figured that, after ten years, they must have undergone some changes. First thing you must know is this is a 'Bankruptcy mill' type of firm. They have multiple attorneys and assistants that will shunt you around before you even speak to an attorney. When I finally got to an attorney he was not rude, per se, but very short with me. His voice had NO compassion. People going through BK are at their final hopes. Someone that at least appears to care would be a great help. I told him I had to file my case immediately. He asked me why. I told him the truth, albeit it embarrassing for me, that I was being threatened by eviction but the eviction had not been filed. He immediately stopped the consultation and said they would not take my case because they do not handle cases when people are going to be evicted because they can't be won. I asked for more specifics and he refused to answer and summarily hung up on me. Can you imagine how that made me feel? I'm recovering from cancer treatment, I reach out to tell this embarrassing story to an attorney who treats me like I'm the lowest form of pond life and then hangs up on me as if I have wasted his time? No, Geraci Law is not a caring law firm and perhaps a BK lawyer needs to be tough. But if you want any kind of compassion I would recommend you find a lawyer that doesn't paste himself all over tv and has five different offices and who you never actually see. Smaller BK firms will give you a much better experience and offer you advice even if they can't help you themselves. That is because they have COMPASSION. Geraci law....you are people and I am people. Treat people like you would like to be treated. We are down on our luck for any number of reasons and we deserve, if not implore, your compassion. Train your staff on this. Cera read more

I went to this law firm a few years ago because I had problems with my business. I made a major mistake handing them a $1000 check. I spent a total of 1/2 hour there and got screwed out of the entire amount. When I ask for a receipt it never comes. 3 times I was told it will be in the mail and nothing ever shows up! I inherited a very large sum of money a few weeks after visiting them and canceled my bankruptcy case. This law firm is a bunch of crooks who take advantage of people having hard times! I spent 20 years as a finance manager in the car business and folks this assembly line bankruptcy firm is worse than any car dealer I've ever worked at and Ive worked at some shady places. It's a snatch and grab for your initial $1000 for which you will never see again. Even if you change your mind 1 min later you'll never see it again. I thought about filing a complaint with bar association and still might. Stay away! read more

From the beginning to the end, I felt that I was supported and my concerns heard/answered. I will definitely recommend Geraci Law for anyone needing help with debt issues. Tennille T. read more

I was researching chapter 13 bankruptcy. I called pfg.the company I've been seeing advertised on television for 40 years. I was extremely disappointed to hear that they did not handle chapter 13. This was 3 months ago. I just saw a commercial 5 minutes ago and it said they specialize in chapter 7 and chapter 13, I have since found Another law firm to help with my needs. I was just wondering why I was told they do not handle that , when they advertise it. read more

They helped me thru a tough time financially, helping me keep my home. There's been a misunderstanding or misleading on my mortgage company side & the bank decided to blame these folks on something, not informing me of a fee that my mortgage company collected & didn't inform me of read more

I went with these people because they received so many good reviews. I went through the whole process. At the end they asked me to rate them as I sat at their desk. They literally pulled up the website and handed me the keyboard. It was a high pressure rating. Don't trust their ratings. read more

This review is way overdue. One would think your journey with cancer ends at remission. No. Aside from a host of life-time ailments and prescriptions, there is the heavy financial cost of having received life-saving treatments such as chemo, radiation, surgery, etc. I was drowning in medical and college debt. Laura C. helped me - financially and emotionally. I'm in a better place right now because of this amazing attorney. Financially fit and going back to school to finally get that degree. read more

I went to Geraci Law because my finances were an absolute mess. I was in way over my head with medical bills and an auto loan and I just wasn't sure what to do.

Wylie is a true professional and he really helped get me out of the rut I was in. I'm so happy to be debt free thanks to Wylie! read more

This office is amazing and I will recommend them to anyone who is going they a rough time time financially and need freedom This office will help you. read more

I used This law firm for the filing of my chapter 13, spoke to Wylie Mok and he was wonderful in explaining things and telling me how much all of this would cost me. I agreed to the terms and knew that I would be paying for the next 3 years, which was fine with me, I was not trying to get out of paying my debts, but just needed some restructuring. Here I am 3 years later and I was done making payments in July of 2016, an order was entered by a judge stating to stop the deductions, the deductions keep coming, I have spoken via e-mail to the Geraci office, and all I keep hearing is that when the trustee performs an audit of my case any overpayments will be sent to me, well guess what? I need my money now, not when the trustee feels its time to return it to me! I have contacted Geraci Law firm and they have been no help at all in this matter! I would think that as my lawyers they can help with this matter, in other ways then to say"an audit will be done and you will get your money back" read more

I just called the 1-888 number for Peter Francis Geraci. I am feeling tender about having to file bankruptcy; have gone and received counsel from the Pro Se office in the Dirkson Building and decided I may want to hire Peter. I just called, introduced myself; explained my journey of Pro Se to Professional and sought to understand process and cost. And the first response from the male operator was "well we don't do business with people who ask questions about cost and shop the cheapest lawyers." I was shocked and told him "please don't disrespect me and be dismissive" to which he replied arrogantly again and then hung up on me. I wonder if Peter knows he has an employee that speaks to people that way. I wonder if Peter himself does know and he too is crass anand disrespectful to potential clients. read more

The people at Geraci Law are amazing. Particularly those in the Cicero office. The minute I walked in I felt more at ease than before. Their paralegal at the front desk couldn't be nicer or more pleasant. I met with Wylie Mok for the initial consultation and he is my primary contact. This guy is awesome. Wylie is very knowledgeable and upfront about everything and anything that has to do with your particular case, answers any questions you may have (no matter how many) ...and is extremely personable. Just an overall good guy. Even the lawyer I talked to via phone, Jay, for my first credit counseling course was great. Geraci Law is a proven bankruptcy firm that's tried and true. I can see why they're so successful. Great people. read more

They are the Best filing with them was easy simple and they explained everything. If I ever had to miss a payment they worked with me and never double up the payments.

My bankruptcy is complete now and I'm so happy with the end results thank you So much. read more

Briana in the Joliet office is great, she helped me through a difficult time and continues to help 2 years later. She has been patient with all my questions which sometimes can be worse than a 2-year-old... all the Why's, How, Whom... and never made me feel like I was a bother or really you ask that... you know that question you don't want to ask for fear it makes you look stupid..... read more

The people at Geraci Law are great especially those in the Cicero office.

They were very helpful and guided us every step of the way! If anyone is thinking about filing for bankruptcy, I strongly recommend you use GERACI LAW! Awesome Peeps! read more

Terrible service, horrible communication even before the pandemic. They don't answer there phone EVER! And only talk to you through there website email. Lawyer was 2 and a half hours late to my hearing. They make you write good reviews in front of them during your meeting to insure you write a positive review even if it's not true! They don't even bother to see if you qualify for chapter 7, they insist you do chapter 13 so they make more money off of you. They are rude and hell and completely unhelpful. They try to pump through as many cases as possible so they give minimal contact and when they do speak to you it's a rehearsed line that is so fast that you can't even process what they said! DO NOT US THIS CONPANY! A lawyer is supposed to represent you and your best interest not work against you in every way in every topic! read more

I met with other Attorneys at another firm who all stated I didn't qualify for bankruptcy. I decided to try Geraci Law and quickly found out how they really cared about their clients and how they went beyond my expectations. Scott Greenwood is by far the best attorney to have while going through the process. He was so informative and took his time going over each step to make sure I understood what happens next. Thank you Scott Greenwood & Geraci Law for what you have done for me & my family and for the excellent service. read more

They have been very helpful with everything! All my questions and concerns have been answered accordingly. Wylie W. Mok is a great attorney and is very knowledgeable about what he does. read more

My attorney, Wylie Mok, is by far the greatest attorney a person could ask for. My financial life was a complete mess. He worked through it all with me step by step, every question I had and things I did NOT understand, he educated me on everything I needed to know. If you ever need an attorney for any financial issues, he's the best there is. I cannot thank him enough for what he's done. read more

Very fast, knowledgeable and reasonable. Highly recommended. Wylie Mok is super friendly and answers all your questions.

Geraci is a assembky line bankruptcy firm , my first advice is to talk to at least 2 -3 law firms to see who is going to try to rip you off the least! At Geraci after the initial paperwork you can forget about talking to your original "attorney" so you better hope he knew what he was talking about read more

Rude and condescending screening done by a pseudo-lawyer in a small room with no windows (ick) who, more or less after charging me for the consultation, informed me that taking my case wouldn't be beneficial to them. Could've been told this on the phone by any other reputable lawyer - but wait - went to a reputable lawyer who gave me service above and beyond; suggest you do the same and skip past this seedy spot touted ad nauseum on television by the owner. Ugh - giving them one star was more than they deserve. read more

If you have to deal with a Bankruptcy attorney, this is THE firm you need to retain. I spoke to Stephen Camp, and he was just astoundingly good. He took his time and answered all of my questions thoroughly, with wit and humor, taking some complicated legal matters, and boiling them down so they became very easy to understand. Outstanding! read more

I have had a lot if friends and family that has filed for bankruptcy at the location on 4218 N. Cicero. They have nothing but great things to say about the staff. They are very courteous and everything went very smoothly. If you need help please dont hesitate to call Geraci Law. They are truly the best. read more

The lady that answered the phone and spoke to me was so rude, she told me to pay the bills and have a nice day. Like I wouldn't pay my bills if I had a job. I wouldn't deal with them again even if it was free. read more

So yesterday I finally felt unburdened, I can't explain how much better I feel about having the weight lifted. I'm very grateful for the personal attention I received from Geraci Law office (Cicero address) From the moment I walked my lawyer (Wylie) treated me as if he had know me forever and even shared stories and picture of his family. I felt completely at ease.. I felt like he knew what I was going through. I was able to call, email even text with any questions or concerns. The location I choose was convenient and I was very happy i didn't have to miss work at all for any of my meetings. The hours were great even weekends! Since going though this I have recommended everyone I know who is going through this burden to check Geraci Law office out. You will not be disappointed. read more

We spoke with Wylie Mok initially. Anytime we have questions or need help we always get it. Don't know where we would be today without the help of Geraci law. read more
