About
David Hernandez leads the Law Office of David Hernandez, committed to providing high-quality, cost-effective legal services for individuals and businesses facing financial hardship. His firm focuses on bankruptcy and asset-related matters, ensuring clients receive direct legal counsel rather than dealing with paralegals or large legal franchises. Fluent in Spanish, David and his team are dedicated to serving the diverse needs of Chicago’s communities, offering personalized guidance to those navigating complex debt and property issues.
David holds a Bachelor of Arts in Economics with a minor in Finance from Illinois Wesleyan University. He furthered his legal education at the University of Illinois John Marshall Law School in Chicago, where he was an Order of the Coif nominee and a moot court semi-finalist. With a deep understanding of financial and property law, he has also earned certifications as a Chartered Property and Casualty Underwriter (CPCU) and an Associate in Reinsurance (ARe). Additionally, as an Illinois Licensed Real Estate Broker, he continues to expand his expertise by pursuing a Certified International Property Specialist (CIPS) designation to assist international clients with their property concerns.
With a hands-on approach, David offers strategic legal solutions for clients facing bankruptcy and financial distress. His firm provides representation in Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 bankruptcy cases, helping individuals and businesses protect their assets, eliminate debt, and regain financial stability. Unlike large bankruptcy firms, his practice ensures clients have direct access to their attorney, offering flexible appointments, including weekends and video consultations. His bilingual capabilities make legal representation more accessible to Spanish-speaking clients, ensuring they fully understand their legal options.
