DebtPros founder, John Wonais, is a life-long Chicago resident with a passion for helping individuals and families with financial difficulties. Whether you are struggling with high credit card payments, facing repossession or wage garnishments, or behind on your mortgage and facing foreclosure, we can help you get back on your feet and eliminate your debt through filing for chapter 7 or chapter 13 bankruptcy.
At DebtPros, our attorneys understand that drowning in debt can be overwhelming and scary, which is why we treat all our clients with compassion and provide them with personal attention. We will work tirelessly to help you achieve your financial goals offering high-quality, effective legal representation. With experience handling thousands of bankruptcy cases in Chicago, you can rest easy that your case is in good hands.
Unlike at larger, impersonal law firms, where clients are not given the special attention they deserve, at DebtPros you will never have to deal or speak with a paralegal or staff member. Instead, your attorney will be available to you 24/7. To us, you are not just another case number, but a person in need of help.
In addition to providing personal, compassionate legal representation, our bankruptcy lawyers in Chicago are not afraid to take on even the most complex cases. Recently, John Wonais litigated a bankruptcy case against the City of Chicago all the way up to the Supreme Court of the United States. See City of Chicago v. Fulton, 141 S.Ct. 585 (2021).
The case was about a client who filed a Chapter 13 bankruptcy case because the city of Chicago impounded her vehicle for unpaid parking tickets. Rather than immediately returning the car to her upon filing, like the City previously used to do, they refused, citing a new ordinance they passed to try and pressure debtors into not filing bankruptcy. While other bankruptcy lawyers were ok with this practice, John was not. Instead, he sued the City and won in the bankruptcy court, United States District Court, and 7th Circuit Court of Appeals.

If you are ever in the need of any services concerning your debt and potential bankruptcy litigation, I give my word and experience that John is the BEST in the Chicagoland area.

John was outstanding in the process of my chapter 7. Not only did he keep me abreast of every step and matter that involved my BK but he was reasonable with the price and the time I had to pay him. He sent me places that accepted my Bk when it came to getting a new car as well and his communication was an A+. There was never a time I couldn’t reach him and if he missed my call he would proceed to call back before the day over or early the next day. I recommend him to any and everyone!

I am honored to provide such a financial relief feedback for this amazing blessing whose name is Atty. Wonais. There is so much I could share endlessly about his superb knowledge and service that he offered me as his client. However, I will share what I found to be essential in my financial issues that Atty. Wonais selflessly provided to me as his client; his expertise, his ability of trustworthiness was "everything" oh my goodness he is truly trusting thru the entire process.
