About
Personal Information: Living with debt can be a constant struggle. Taking the first step toward a solution is challenging, but at Bentz Law Firm our number one concerns are listening to our clients and providing individualized plans so each person can leave armed with the knowledge they need to get to where they want financially. My job is making sure our client's know and understand the legal options they have. I work hard for my clients and if they are loosing sleep, chances are I am too.Professional Information:I am entirely devoted to serving Chicagoland and Lake County, Indiana. I began my career as a Criminal Prosecutor. After more than 25 felony and misdemeanor trials and countless hours of in-court litigation experience, I began working for one of Chicagoland’s largest bankruptcy firms. Although working for a large bankruptcy firm provided me with exposure to literally hundreds of bankruptcy cases, I felt that an important part of the individualized client-attorney relationship was missing. Unlike many larger firms, I believe each client deserves an attorney who has the time to listen, the compassion to understand, and the intelligence and determination to provide results.

Attorney Jessica Bentz defended our Firm in actions involving property purchases. She was responsive, competant, and well informed. She also assisted the Firm in collection actions in Chicago and Florida. I will continue to work with Attorney Bentz because we knew what to expect in the litigation and her knowledge spanded from foreclosure actions to creditor's rights so we were able to spend less on an attorney but get great results.
Ms. Bentz helped represented me in my bankruptcy. I was told by other attorneys that they would not take my case because I had too many foreclosures from investment properties I owned. They kept telling me that the trustee would never allow my BK to discharge. One attorney tried to charge me twice as much as the industry standard. Ms. Bentz told me she would at least look at my case free of charge. She then told me it was something she could get done, I was not over charged, and my BK was discharged within 120 days of filing. I truly believe it was the due diligence she put forth in my case that led my to such a favorable outcome after months of being discouraged from lawyer shopping.
I had been struggling for years with divorce debt, and lack of child support, and underemployed which led to me being chronically in debt, especially with debts of my ex. Jessica and her paralegal explained all possibilities and took exceptional care in making sure I understood possible outcomes. The Trustee listened to me and I was grateful I was awarded/allowed a Chapter 7. i wanted to write this review 8 years after to say what a huge positive difference her competence made in my life.
Jessica is an excellent Bankruptcy attorney. She represented me through a lengthy Chapter 13 and I couldn't be happier with the results. She's ethical, quick to respond, and extremely knowledgeable. She was very easy to work with because she was kind, patient with my abundance of concerns, and genuinely understood my situation. I highly recommend Jessica and the Bentz Holguin Law Firm.
We had an excellent experience with Jessica and her team. From the first phone call, we were met with kindness, compassion, and understanding from Jessica. Jessica took time to meticulously review our case and recommended that we change our plan to one that better fit our circumstances. We just completed our case and couldn't be happier. We had switched law firms to Bentz Holguin after having an awful experience with our prior attorney who was difficult to get ahold of and talked down to us. This was never the case with Jessica. She promptly returned emails and phone calls, and treated our case like it was important to her. Jessica took the time to talk us through every step, so we knew exactly what to expect. Her expertise will definitely find you in the right plan and painlessly get you through a bankruptcy case. It was an absolute pleasure working with her, if we could give more than 5 stars, we would!
Last year I lost my job and went through a pretty bad time. I didn’t want to file bankruptcy but didn’t have any other options at the time. I was broke and I needed to start new. Jessica walked me through the process. Even when I got upset about having to deal with the debt she just calmly answered my questions from start to finish. I’m now employed and my credit is so much better. I don’t have a lot of experience with lawyers but I always recommend Attorney Jessica and Adam to my friends. They did what they said they would and got me results. Thank you!
I definitely will give Jessica 5 stars, she was totally there with me all the way, always ensuring I clearly understood the process and very patient with me if though I kept bugging her with questions, she never seemed bothered, very pleasant and a joy to work with! I would highly recommend her to anyone!
Jessica did a phenomenal job handling my bankruptcy case. There were many different variables that made my particular situation extremely challenging but Jessica was willing to take my case on and did everything she could to help me. She did a wonderful job keeping me posted of the situation and was very informative of what both a positive and negative outcome would look like. Her communication with me was incredible. Every time I called or emailed her, I would hear back the same day. Jessica went above and beyond her job to make me trust in her. I had two lawyers represent me prior to hiring Jessica and I had honestly lost faith in attorneys due to they way I was treated and the little work that was actually being done with my case. Jessica restored my faith in attorneys and it is a comfort to know there still a few good ones out there! I would highly recommend Jessica to anyone needing legal help. She is a wonderful attorney and person who gets results!
After having renters destroy her townhouse and the HOA refused to file for insurance – my daughter was left with a gutted house and no way to pay for the repairs. After contacting two lawyers who did nothing but take her money and provide no help – my daughter found Jessica Bentz in Chicago. At this point we'd lost faith and had become very untrusting. Jessica worked very hard to gain our trust back. She was honest, open and very knowledgeable about what needed to be done. She never steered us in the wrong direction and treated us very fairly. No one worked harder for my daughter then Jessica. We are forever grateful for all the help she gave us. She guided us through a maze that we would never have been able to navigate on our own. Thank you Jessica – we won't forget you. If you need a reliable, honest lawyer, call Jessica. You won't be disappointed.
