hired David lloyd in October 2014 and have been in his office seven times from October to March 2015. I asked David to call some creditors and give me some time to pay my bills after closing it after 21 years. David asked me for checks for his service. He never addressed any of my creditors until they put a lein on my bank account. Now I find out David never addressed my debts with my current Real estate attorney and I have real problems. David will not return phone calls e-mails and could not figure out what kind of bankruptcy I needed. He ruined my life which I am still looking for answers after he did nothing after $800.00 worth of payments. I wrote to the bar association of Chicago and the disiplanary commision. I went to him for help and after five months and my bankruptcy case has been dropped leaving me with endless phone calls e-mails and visits from people serving me court papers. When I saw David I was under the impression a bankruptcy lawyer could help me and give me some time after my failed business. Was I wrong! Please post this so I can help somebody else from harm and aggrivation.
Thank You,
Kevin Lawlor

The story is not as simple and one-sided as presented. I don’t want to give details about my client’s financial situation, but I do need to address his comments. I did contact his business creditors to try to work out his debts. They were not willing to make the kinds of concessions that we were looking for, and they did take legal action against him. We filed a personal Chapter 13 bankruptcy for this client. It did not succeed, as many cases do not. Without detailing how the case failed, I can state that it was not the failure of my office to file any document or appear in court; other reasons caused the case to fail. This client did file a complaint with the Illinois Attorney Registration and Disciplinary Commission, the only complaint filed by a client against me in my career. The ARDC investigated the complaint in full and completely cleared me. It’s unfortunate that my client is dissatisfied, but I was not the cause of his problems.
