Jessica Bentz Holguin, Member of Bentz Law Firm, LLC
I started my career as a Criminal Prosecutor. After more than 25 felony and misdemeanor trials and over a thousand 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, the Bentz Law Firm believes each client deserves an attorney who has the time to listen, the compassion to understand, and the intelligence and determination to provide results. Should you become a client of Bentz Law Firm, you will not be “another number.”
